True Christians have always been kind and treated all sinners, including their own children, with charity - but without compromising the truth. That doesn’t mean lecturing them every time they see them and creating an atmosphere of hostility, but it does mean that they have to be honest about certain things: not participating in gay “weddings” or “commitment services,” for example, and not encouraging or permitting overtly gay activities or demonstrations in their presence. And in cases where they have some input - for example, if their child announces he wants to be a she, or if a grandchild is being pressured by a gay parent to be gay or cross-dress or anything similar, they have the responsibility to speak out and to do anything they can to oppose it.
In terms of support from the Church, it also means that the clergy has to be firm in rejecting homosexuality. In fact, they should be not only firm but vocal and pro-active in opposing the lunatic “gender” theory sweeping this country, where the person as created by God is made to think that there was some mistake made by God and that therefore he or she should and even must use all modern chemical and surgical means to pretend to be other than what they were born. This is utter insanity and yet I hear nothing on it from the Church.
But I don’t think this is the kind of thing Pope Francis wants to hear from the new, improved Church.
You ain't kiddin' livius. I've had Catholic friends on Facebook post congratulations of this sort after attending such abominations.
Now I ain't no moral theologian, but I am pretty sure attending and supporting one of these things is a mortal sin in itself, between giving scandal and being an accessory.
You want to address an issue Francis, address that one.
