Led To His Defrocking
Answer
Pavone's controversial act led to his defrocking. In 2007, the Roman Catholic Church revoked his priestly faculties, or the ability to perform priestly duties. The church cited his advocacy of gay marriage and civil unions, as well as his support for gay priests. Pavone has continued to speak out in favor of LGBT rights, and he has been a vocal critic of the Catholic Church's teachings on homosexuality.
