ST. JOHN HENRY NEWMAN: THE FIRST OPENLY GAY CATHOLIC SAT?

Of urse, the two men uld be gay and have had a strong affectnate and timate relatnship whout beg sexually active, jt as many gay men the prithood and relig life today mata their promis and vows of celibacy. While some people thk that homophobia agast gay men om a revulsn about male sex acts, I thk that for many people the more horrifyg and sndalo phenomenon is men beg emotnally sensive, tenr, and affectnate wh one another.

Of urse, such gentle and timate rpons by men is only a problem if one suffers om tense homophobia or believ the enforcement of strict genr expectatns that men should not be emotnal and rg toward one another.

” In the 21st century world, there is an unspoken expectatn afoot that to be “openly gay” means havg ma some very public statements about one’s orientatn and inty. Yet, I thk a good se n be ma for Newman beg the “first openly gay” Catholic sat for the simple reason that we know so much more about him and his relatnship than we do about the other exampl.

GAY SAT JOHN HENRY NEWMAN AND HIS “EARTHLY LIGHT” AMBROSE ST. JOHN SHARED ROMANTIC IENDSHIP

June 14 – John Gray (March 2, 1866 – June 14, 1934) was a Catholic prit whose romantic partner was Marc-André Raffalovich, a wealthy poet and early fenr of homosexualy. He and South Ain lbian activist Bev Dsie anized South Ai’s first LGBTQ Pri para 1990 as -founrs of GLOW (Gay and Lbian Organisatn of the Wwatersrand). They jo the pany of Sebastian, patron sat of homosexualy, Pl the Apostle, who may have stggled wh homosexual sir, and John the Evangelist, who was possibly the “Beloved Disciple” of J — who are also venerated by queer Christians for a variety of reasons.

This All Sats’ Day — and honor of All Souls’ Day — here’s a look at the ia that there are sats and martyrs of Christiany who were eher genr non-nformg, or who exhibed strong same-sex bonds or attractns — or who simply stggled wh what may have been homosexual sire. And when to queer-revered sats such as Sebastian, ’s important to unrstand that when we say he is regard as the patron sat of homosexualy, ’s not bee of anythg he did while alive, but merely bee of his longstandg populary wh gay men.

John Henry Newman, a 19th-century Brish scholar, theologian and rdal, was nonized by the Pope as a Roman Catholic sat 2019 amid rampant speculatn that he was gay. “I nsir the failure to separate their remas a queer miracle for nonizatn, ” said queer theologian Robert Shore-Goss, a former Catholic Ju prit and thor of the classic “J Acted Up: A Gay and Lbian Manifto.

WHY JOHN HENRY NEWMAN IS NO ‘GAY’ SAT

I want to give a shout out to my iends the Catholic Church reform movement there, those We Are Church Ireland and the Associatn of Catholic Prits Ireland, and those who belonged to the group Gay Catholic Voice Ireland, as well as to my iends who anized and participated the Archdce of Dubl’s “All Are Wele” mass for LGBTI people and alli.

Today, I hope to give you some rmatn about gay men and the Catholic prithood, look a b at Newman’s language of love, and exame a b what is that we mean by the word “gay” self. I don’t mean to say this a flippant way, but simply to pot out that the way the qutn has been amed impli that a gay inty is the exceptn to the cleril le. Although there are no statistics available, my experience—and that of many Catholics–tells me that the large majory of Catholic prits are gay, and that a heterosexual orientatn is the exceptn to the le.

Sce marriage is not an optn for Roman Catholic clergy, the prithood offers a place where gay men n live peaceably whout nstant societal and fay prsur to marry a woman.

WAS A WOULD-BE SAT GAY?

But this view on the ll to prithood om a negative perspective, lookg at as an pe, rather than as somethg which has s own particular appeals to gay sensibily. But of urse, there is also more posive evince for thkg of Newman as gay, and that is material om his wrgs that scribe the tense emotnal relatnship that he had wh another prit, Ambrose St. Ian Ker and many tradnalists who have balked at the ia of a gay Cardal Newman assert that sce there is good evince that Newman was celibate he uldn’t be gay.

That assertn is based on the erroneo unrstandg that if someone is known as gay, impli that the person is sexually active—and oftentim thought of as promiscuoly so. Such is the se of many, many gay men the prithood today who mata ep and lovg relatnships wh other men while matag their promis and vows of celibacy.

THE GAY CHURCH

It is also te of many gay lay men who experience love wh other people, or perhaps one special person, while by choice or circumstance are not sexually timate wh the other. It wasn’t until very late the 19th century (Newman died 1890) that scientists even began discsg the ia that some people were nstutnally homosexual (and not until the mid-20th century did scientists regnize that homosexualy was not a psychologil disorr). Before the advanc, the assumptn was that everyone was nstuted heterosexually and that some people chose to behave homosexually—agast their prumed natural state.

While he draws back om ncludg that Newman was certaly “gay, ” he wants to proclaim the msage that “a gay person (someone wh a homosexual orientatn, if you prefer) n be holy, even a sat. His wrgs nvced historians John Boswell and Brian Patrick McGuire that Aelred was a gay man, albe one who still disuraged any sexual activy outsi the bounds of marriage.
