May as well reach out to unrepentant, practising serial killers and bank robbers. What’s the difference?

Sin is sin.

Are our communities capable of providing that, accepting and valuing their sexual orientation, without compromising Catholic doctrine on the family and matrimony?


A question worthy of thought..........................

Human perspective, yes.

God’s perspective, no.

The touch stone is not our way of thinking but Gods.

Have not gone to Mass since a Jesuit priest referred to anti abortion folks as insensitive and said a Marine Colonel’s desire to become a Colonel was bad. I walked out and will not return, my wife suggested we attend Mass on the Base, I will not go into a Base Chapel, they are used for homosexual weddings. This is the demise of the Catholic Church instead of being a beacon of traditional religious values it now embraces the very things that are destroying other churches. I am a Missouri Synod Lutheran, they are holding their ground on traditional faith. But my wife will not go to Lutheran Chuch with me. Why are the Roman Catholics willing to drive people away for less than 2% of the worlds population?

I go to Mass daily and receive communion. I've come to feel that Mass WITHOUT communion is almost a waste of time. That IS what we go for, mainly.
So for the divorced and homosexuals, Mass for them is empty--that is, without the Eucharist. Why go and not be able to participate?

Totally impossible

A church that wants to accept and value SIN.

Homosexuals have gifts and qualities to offer to the Christian community.

Let's list them, shall we!

Vengeance. Fire. Brimstone. Pillars of salt.

If I read correctly, all this claptrap would make one dream of ye old Catholicism, “a harsh religion that demanded things of you” as one FReeper recently said.

Heavily laced with academia-speak. Postmodern claptrap.
