Fr. Boyle replied:
These things are actually easier than people make them out to be it seems to me. I think it’s always important to kind of say, ‘how does God see sexual orientation.’ Does God feel like that same-sex marriage could happen? I don’t think anybody who has a connection to God and God’s understanding and depth of compassion who’s gonna say no. And this is contrary to the party line.”
Fr. Boyle returned to the question later in the interview, speaking of
opposing same-sex ‘marriage’ as “demonizing people.” He said, “You
cannot demonize people [whom] you know. It obliterates that forever. So,
that’s important in all these issues, gay marriage, etc. All you need
to know is the gay couple who have kids, and that obliterates forever
anybody’s inclination to say this is wrong. “ Fr. Boyle also ridiculed the Catholic Church’s refusal to ordain women
to the priesthood. “You know the Vatican just said that the ordination
of women is a grave sin,” he said. “Have you ever met anybody who would
agree with that, I mean my 85-year-old mother doesn’t…”

Kudos to the man for standing up and saying something logical.
Qualis Rex rewrite your comment for me thanks
Christian...His argument is weak as tea. What is logical about treating faith as if it is determined by votes and numbers.
"I don’t think anybody who has a connection to God and God’s understanding and depth of compassion who’s gonna say no."
“Have you ever met anybody who would agree with that, I mean my 85-year-old mother doesn’t…”
I seems to remember that a large percentage of Americans looked kindly on slavery about 150 years ago. By his reasoning they were correct.
I am glad you bring the issue of slavery up.Slave owners were not wrong from their perspective and according to the bible they were not wrong either. So where is the truth in morality determined by a book.
