This article aims at presenting a theological difference of opinion between a bishop and a lay theologian brought about by the recent alleged papal endorsement of same-sex unions presented in a new documentary Francesco. The surprising thing was that while the lay person was on the side of the Pope and arguing that there was no change in the perennial teaching of the Church, he ended up at the receiving end of an episcopal dressing down for misleading those “differently abled intellectuals who may not be as highly gifted” than he was. The author argues that the real issue was clericalism and as long as he wore the ID “ex-priest” he had lost his place at the theological high table. The episcopal dressing down was a rude reminder that clericalism was alive and well and keeping the Catholic Church in the Stone Age. In his default position, he would have told the bishop to get on his bike but thanked him for clearing the air where he stood in the theological pecking order and to take his place under the table.
