For this action on the part of the USCCB I am pleased. New Ways Ministry has for too long led gay persons down the primrose path of self-destruction and perhaps damnation by encouraging them in their gay lifestyles. They are based in Prince George's County, Maryland. That is within the boundaries of the Archciocese of Washington.
They do seem to my perspective to be waning in influence. I recall several years ago I led a picket of a meeting of theirs in Silver Spring; conducted at the offices of the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas (those left-wingers do stick together, don't they?). That occurred in 2005 during Lent. There were 5 of us picketing. Still, we outnumbered the New Ways meeting attendees.
The USCCB press release can be found here. It reminds the Catholic population at large that New Ways has no authority from the bishops to speak on behalf of the Church. Cardinal Hickey first announced that in 1984. So why, oh why, did these nuns lend New Ways their office space for that meeting? They cannot be trusted.
