A few years ago, we posted an interview with flamboyant journalist Milo Yiannopoulos and Joe Rogan. The post received many views and lots of different comments. Many people were offering their prayers for Milo. On Friday, March 12, 2021, Life Site News posted an exclusive interview with Milo where he revealed that he has left the gay lifestyle and is consecrating his life to Saint Joseph.
“St. Joseph is the spiritual father figure of the Holy Family. In this time of gender madness, devoting myself to the male protector of the Infant Jesus is an act of faith in God’s Holy Patriarch, and a rejection of the Terror of transsexuals.”
Background
Milo is British, of Jewish descent, baptized Catholic, and flamboyantly gay bucked the “born this way” narrative, and always joyfully proclaimed his Catholic faith. After a speech at a Southern California University, he was asked how he could reconcile his gay lifestyle and be Roman Catholic.
“the question itself exposes a level of lack of understanding about Catholicism and about what it means to be gay. He quotes Evelyn Waugh who once said, “If you think I’m bad with God, imagine me without him”. He talked about how the Catholic Church has historically protected gays’ safety against being murdered by the State. People are Anglicans or Baptists or Methodists or whatever because they believe they’re good people, but Catholics are Catholics because they know they’re not. We have this thing called original sin. We go to Church because we know we’re not good.
Watch the Joe Rogan interview.
Milo said he committed his life to helping others overcome their same-sex attraction and said he is disappointed that leaders in the Church continue to ignore problems with Priests and lack of leadership during these stressful times, which have left people searching more than ever for meaning. Watch the whole interview here.
We continue to pray for Milo and all others suffering from sin. Scripture tells us that Jesus “desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim. 2:4) and that he is “not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance” (2 Pet. 3:9). “Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors” (Matt. 6:12)
