Excellent. A breath of fresh air to hear someone from the church come forward and proclaim the truth!

You bet, this will get them going. Male and female alike, read this. If your involved in anyway with this activity your chances of Heaven are reduced. Is it really worth it? Once the doors are slammed shut it's permanent. Copy this an get it out in e mails to people who need to read it

Why can’t all priests speak this clearly on the Church’s sexual teaching?

Unfortunately, until recently, too many were diddling seminarians...and worse.

The Scriptures condemn not only the acts, but the feelings too (Romans 1:26-27).

The priests cant speak on these things because the catholic priests were engaging in these things.They have a do as we say,not as we do mentality.Everyone knows they are hypocrites.

Yes, clearly all of them are gay and also none of the ministers of other faiths are. /sarc

Short answer: because it’s a sin.

It’s easy to get sucked into a relativist argument about homosexuality, but the simplest reason to reject it is that it’s wrong.
We’ve lost our faith in absolutes, and tend to measure everything these days against a “burden of proof” standard. But Right is Right, Wrong is Wrong, and Truth is Truth. It doesn’t have to be argued or even defended. No mortal man can change it by whim or any other device. It is eternal and unbending.
Homosexuality is wrong because it is wrong. Period.

FTR...I am not Roman Catholic, but I read Msgr Pope every day. :)
Could you put me on the ping list, Mark?
