Polish Bishop Reprimands Priest for Criticizing Pro-Homosexual Cardinal

The Polish priest Beniamin Sęktas (ordained in 2020) from the Diocese of Drohiczyn in eastern Poland publicly called for the resignation of Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś, 62, of Krakow.

Pope Leo XIV had promoted the pro-homosexual Cardinal Ryś from Łódź to Krakow in November 2025.

In an open letter published in mid-December 2025, Rev. Sęktas asked the Cardinal to resign. He called Cardinal Ryś a “public collaborator of rainbow Catholics.”

Furthermore, Rev. Sęktas noted that Cardinal Ryś promotes extraordinary lay ministers to distribute Communion.

The letter included statements such as:
“You continue to shock and scandalize many Catholics”
“the cynical face of an activist seeking the applause of opinion-forming elites”

Bishop Henryk Sawczuk of Drohiczyn summoned Rev. Sęktas and reprimanded him. On May 4, the Diocese of Drohiczyn published a statement saying that the priest had violated the media guidelines adopted by the Polish Bishops’ Conference in 2023.

The bishop also forbade him from publishing similar content in the future.

Several Catholic media outlets in Poland described the public disciplinary response against Rev. Sęktas as unusually strong.

Anyone who condones or has a blind eye or a deaf ear to sin, is not a follower of Christ, but is a stooge of the devil.

Reprimanding homosexuals wasn’t really “pope Saint John Paul the great’s” strong suit. If memory serves correctly.

May Pope Saint John Paul the Great help that bold and courageous Priest. And strengthen him against the attack of the enemy, both within and without the Faith.

Saint Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274)
Commenting upon Saint Paul’s Epistle to the Romans (1:26-27), Saint Thomas Aquinas, the Angelic Doctor, explains why the sin of homosexuality is so grave:
"Given the sin of impiety through which they [the Romans] sinned against the divine nature [by idolatry], the punishment that led them to sin against their own nature followed.... I say, therefore, that since they changed into lies [by idolatry] the truth about God, He brought them to ignominious passions, that is, to sins against nature; not that God led them to evil, but only that he abandoned them to evil....
"If all the sins of the flesh are worthy of condemnation because by them man allows himself to be dominated by that which he has of the animal nature, much more deserving of condemnation are the sins against nature by which man degrades his own animal nature.... »
Saint John Chrysostom in the Catena Aurea of Saint Thomas Aquinas, it is explained that tolerating offenses against God is the height of impiety.
In Scripture, impiety is a serious sin that is closely related to idolatry and contempt for God. It is considered such a serious sin that it is frequently described as an abomination. Impiety (ungodliness) includes idol worship, idolatry, bearing false witness, lying, blasphemy, and immoral conduct.
The Sin of Impiety is a sin of Malice. The Sin of Malice is considered a sin of Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit
