Luiz 4,253 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 http://www.irishcentral.com/news/politics/Dublin-priest-says-he-is-gay-during-Mass--receives-standing-ovation.html A Dublin priest received a standing ovation from his congregation this week as he called for same s-x marriage equality in Ireland and came out to his parishioners. Father Martin Dolan, who has been a priest at Church of St Nicholas of Myra in Francis Street in Dublin’s city center for 15 years, opened up to his congregation at the Saturday night Mass. He also confided in his Sunday morning congregation. Dolan is the only priest in the parish. Calling on his Dublin city congregation to support same s-x marriage in the upcoming Irish referendum, set for the end May, Dolan said “I’m gay myself.†A referendum on same s-x marriage will take place at the end of May 2015. Although polls consistently show that over 70 percent of the Irish are in support of gay marriage, campaigners admit that there’s no room for complacency during the run up to the vote. The Irish government is promoting a “Yes†vote for marriage equality. Ireland’s leader Enda Kenny has said, “I support it and I will canvass for it.†Dolan’s statement at Mass on Saturday was met by applause and a standing ovation from his “proud†parishioners. Speaking to the Irish Sun (subscription needed) community youth worker Liz O’Connor said, “We are all very proud of Fr Martin. Because he has admitted that he is gay doesn’t change the person that he was before he said it." I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it.
