Devout Catholic Leader Thanks God That Mom’s Cancer Cured His Homosexual Sins


I swear to God, you just can’t make this stuff up.

Michael Voris runs a media site called “St. Michael’s Media.” It’s an outfit that will sell you all kinds of videos, podcasts and books to help spread the Gospel of Catholicism. They’ll also (surprise, surprise) accept your generous donations. He also runs a Catholic “news” site called The Church Militant, which includes lots of info on how to be saved.

Voris just posted a video on YouTube where he confesses to having been a very bad boy. He says that back in his misspent youth, he “lived a life of live-in relationships with homosexual men.” He wasn’t gay, mind you, he was just sort of… confused.

OK, so the guy had some gay relationships. That’s fine and definitely not the horrifying part of this story.

Get this:

Voris says that he was trying to change his ways, but he wasn’t getting very far. He thought that he just needed enough “grace” to turn himself around. That’s when this self-styled saver of souls got the great news he was hoping for.

His mother had stomach cancer.

Watching his loving mother go through the suffering and horror of cancer finally got him to give up other men. He promised his mom that it wouldn’t all be in vain, and that he’d go back to his good old homophobic Catholic ways. Said Voris:

“I was thrilled, over the top with gratitude, with what God had done for me through my mom and her suffering.”

What a guy.

So why the late confession from The Church Militant? Because the (ahem) forces of evil are threatening to destroy his mission by exposing his past. And he just can’t let that happen!

After all, he is on a mission to bring lost souls to God. And any guy who would celebrate his mom’s horrific death is a guy you can trust to save you from your sinful ways. Right?
