"Building a Bridge - How the Catholic Church and the LGBT Community Can Enter into a Relationship of Respect, Compassion, and Sensitivity" by Fr. James Martin, SJ

It just released yesterday, and my preorder arrived from Amazon last night.  I've set my expectations based on the review by Eve Tushnet inside the article below.  Still, Father Martin has a reputation inside our community, and the fact that he has an appointment by the Vatican and can publicly have conversations on this subject has my attention.
