It has always seemed to me that a few Catholics consider Catholicism to be some sort of club instead of a religion whose teachings they are to follow. As if they just need to get themselves elected the new Treasurer or Secretary of Whatever and then they can run things their way. And I was always under the impression that going through confirmation was basically imply that you were 'down' with all the churches teachings. Is that incorrect?
This is coming from someone who isn't Catholic, didn't grow up around Catholics and doesn't even know any Catholics now.

You are not Catholic if you vote for killing babies,
homosexuality,
These idiots mainly in the north east have no idea what their faith is about.

maybe his parents need to get him help and understand what he wants or how he wants his sex is not healthy, nor natural and against his faith.
Think of where the colon is,
The prostate is devided by a thin film, if that is broken then all that feces get into there.
It’s not just eprverted sex it;s down right not healthy or natural

Polygamy is next. You think they care? Or draw the line? Destroy America at the basic building blocks.

While I am not a Catholic, that church has the same right and duty to protect who they consider to be a properly vetted member. It is not honest to seek to be “confirmed” and yet to act contrary to the doctrines being taught.

Since this kid is so “honest” and “respected throughout the community,” where did he get the stolen yard sign?

So nice to see a Parish stand up for the beliefs of the Church. I wish more would.

Is it? I honestly don’t know.

All Christians know from scripture that homosexuality is wrong. The bibles says so several times. And, abortion is pure baby killing. Taking an innocent life with a beating heart and killing it is morally wrong. Some churches have turned a blind eye on biblical teaching in those areas for whatever reasons.

"Cafeteria Catholics" pick and choose what they want to believe ... including the Ten Commandments.

It doesn’t say he is gay. I think he is one of those straights who wants to be cool and “in”.

Oh, well—I bet they can get him confirmed by one of the women “priests” who still call themselves catholics. Welcome to the catholic buffet.

Hey, unless and until he repents of that wrong, they have a perfect right to tell him take a hike.

Cafeteria Catholics" pick and choose what they want to believe Unfortunately, we have such cattle in Protestant churches, too. If people were intellectually honest, the Unitarian Universalists would be the fastest-growing denomination.
