To the editor:
I genuinely appreciate the L.A. auxiliary bishop's reminder of the subversive nature of the Christmas story. And in that spirit, I'll quote the bishop and hope that everyone had “a subversive little Christmas.”
I'd also like to remind everyone of subversive Catholic groups like Roman Catholic Womenpriests (whose name says it all) and DignityUSA, which speaks for many lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender Catholics.
The people these groups represent often find there's no room at the inn for them, but hopefully Catholic authorities will remember the subversive story of Jesus in the new year.

Note from KBJ: The Church's position on these people is clear: They have an "objectively disordered" condition and are to be pitied. They are not to act on their perverted desires. See here, paragraphs 2357 to 2359.
