“Pro-LGBT Jesuit Father James Martin has given a ringing endorsement for Pope Leo XIV.
Over the last 24 hours, Martin, who is in Rome, has published multiple videos and issued several written social media posts expressing gratitude after Leo, formerly Cardinal Robert Prevost, was elected Pope on Thursday.
‘He’s committed to continuing this process (of Synodality) of Pope Francis to make the Church more listening, more welcoming, and more inclusive,’ Martin said in a video on X today.
In another post, Martin, who attended the 2024 synod with Prevost and even sat at his table, said, ‘I know Pope Leo XIV to be a kind, open, humble, modest, decisive, hard-working, straightforward, trustworthy, and down-to-earth man. A brilliant choice. May God bless him.’”
