Pope Francis Appoints Pro-Gay Rector as Bishop of Northampton
by Jules Gomes, Church Militant:
The rector of England’s largest seminary, who reportedly went to bat for an openly gay seminarian, has been appointed as the new bishop of Northampton.
Canon David Oakley succeeds Bp. Peter Doyle, who has also come under fire for promoting a pro-gay agenda and sharing the platform at an LGBT conference with homosexualist Jesuit Fr. James Martin.
The 64-year-old bishop-elect, rector of St. Mary’s College, Oscott, has been described by those who know him as “pastoral, discerning and faithful” and “having a ministry in the mold of Pope Francis.”
However, during his seven-year tenure as rector, the prestigious seminary in the archdiocese of Birmingham was tainted by claims of being run by a “homosexual clique” that was being overlooked because of a “homosexual culture in the Church’s hierarchy.”
