That's because it's not being attracted to the same sex that is wrong, but homosexual acts.

Sure? I thought I read that "lust in the heart" is sinful.

I hope the stance is similar for incest and pedophilia, and what about animals.

I know 4 percent is a small percentage, but it is still much too large for comfort.

[xtinct]

This issue is always a constant struggle for homosexuals... when in fact it's quite simple but they don't seem to have the confidence of their convictions to just do what they want.

The struggle -- they know it's a sin in the eyes of the Catholic Church so they continue to try to get the Church to accept them on their terms. That will NOT happen ever so they may as well go off and join another Church --> like the Episcopalians or the Methodists who both accept homosexuals openly.

I have long suspected that one of the reasons some supposedly Catholic parents are so non-judgmental or even celebratory about their children’s intimate activities is because the parents themselves want a pass on their own sexual incontinences, multiple marriages, contraception and abortion. Rather than risk being branded hypocrites for their faults and having to admit that they were wrong and regret their error, it is easier to pretend that there is no sin.

[Antoninus]

In concluding her Jan. 30 column about homosexuality and the Catholic Church, Mary Jean Smith writes: "The archbishop and others are wrong on this issue. I am not guilty of mortal sin."

Mary Jean needs to be excommunicated. She's a stubborn public sinner who has taken the further step of repudiating her bishop on an issue where she's plainly in the wrong.

For what it's worth, Mary Jean, there is neither love nor compassion in enabling a child in a sinful relationship. It is only cowardice--the inability of a parent to tell their child that what they're doing is wrong and unacceptable, even if it means estranging that child.

Confirming someone in their sin is a worse sin, if you ask me.

“Only a very small percentage of Catholic priests, about 4 percent, abused children.”

ONLY 4 percent???? I’m guessing that’s HUGE compared to the general population.

[Amendment10]

Romans 1:25-27 tells us that same-sex sexual relationships are a consequence of idolatry. In other words, such relationships are a consequence of disobeying the 1ST COMMANDMENT, a major aspect of the GREATEST COMMANDMENT, to love the jealous God with all your being.

Homosexuals need to keep in mind, however, that the good news of the gospel is not about how God despises same-sex sexual relationships. In fact, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 indicates that certain members of that church had been slaves to such relationships but had been cleansed in Jesus' name. So these former homosexuals had evidently repented and accepted God's grace to straighten their lives out.
