“Who is the better Catholic? The old lady that sits in church, saying her Rosary, and accepting everything the Church teaches or the one who questions everything?” He said: “It was the one who questioned everything.” Part and parcel with this rhetoric concerning the value of doubt was the primacy of the conscience.”
Joseph Sciambra, Disordered: A Critical Examination of Gay Life and Culture From One Who Survived

“Deep down, I wanted him to say something else; I wanted him to be someone else. Perhaps, I naively thought I’d find the priest from The Song of Bernadette sitting in that little room waiting for me. I presumed such men in the Catholic Church only existed in old movies. With that, I went in search of a man willing to guide me.”
