New York Governor Mario Cuomo "deplored the demonstration." The cathedral protest was criticized as "stupid and wrong-headed" by Andy Humm, a spokesman for the Coalition for Gay and Lesbian Rights, while one ACT UP leader, Peter Staley, denounced the protest as an "utter failure" and a "selfish, macho thing." During its planning, members of ACT UP were divided on the wisdom of the protest with some saying that protest should not target worshipers; others said it was more important to gain attention than it was to avoid offending the people attending the Mass. Shortly after the protest, Larry Kramer, Robert Garcia, Ann Northrop, Mark Harrington, and Peter Staley appeared on a television panel to discuss the protest, where they faced oftentimes hostile questions from the audience. Legacy O'Connor ministered to those dying at an AIDS hospice, bathing them and changing their bedpans, and supported others who did so. He also stated that he would never object to anyone peacefully protesting outside the cathedral, which had happened before, but did object to disrupting Mass and especially to the acts of desecration. The protest became one of ACT UP's most well known actions. Protests at the cathedral continued for the next few years, though they were smaller and less disruptive. In 1992, another woman crumbled the consecrated communion wafer (Eucharist), but it was unclear if the action was tied to the larger protest. O'Connor feared, however, that it would start a trend.

The film was eventually dropped from national broadcast by PBS, but still aired on public-access television cable TV stations in several major cities including Los Angeles, New York City, and San Francisco. The documentary used footage filmed "guerrilla-style" by Hilferty, an ACTUP member. "ACT UP activists now say the St. Patrick's protest changed the way many Americans viewed the Catholic Church. It was no longer untouchable, and its policies – on everything from condoms and abortion to gay marriage and women priests – were no longer sacrosanct." Filmmaker Jim Hubbard, a member of ACT UP and director of the documentary United in Anger: A History of ACT UP, said, "I wasn't clear about what going inside the church would add at the time. But now I think that the shock of going inside and confronting the cardinal really worked. It helped bring ACT UP
