Coming soon to a Catholic Parish near you (unfortunately). It is a Hobson’s Choice situation, where there is no fully good choice.

Not a chance....Catholics believe in Sacramental marriage and 2 persons of the same sex are not qualified to receive the Sacrament.....a woman is not qualified to receive the Sacrament of Holy Orders.....it will never happen.

Catholics believe in Sacramental marriage and 2 persons of the same sex are not qualified to receive the Sacrament....

So did the Episcopalians, once...

it will never happen.

Lots of things were never going to happen, until they actually did...you have absolutely no idea what the future will bring...

I am no Catholic...but I know enough of them to know that American Catholics are much more Liberal than the Holy Church's official position. Most of the Supreme Court is Catholic--allegedly.

This Methodist suspects that renegade priests will soon be performing same-sex marriages in Catholic parishes. We will see what this Pope does about it.

I am dreading next year's UMC General Conference. The crack-up that one pastor predicted to me 16 years ago may finally happen.
