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

Explain for me what is inconsistent with Catholic teaching about this statement.

“accepting and VALUING their sexual orientation”

No one is has a homosexual orientation. Homosexual acts are “intrinsically disordered”. They are “acts of grave depravity”. The church can not VALUE or accept this depravity. To do so would fly in the face of Catechism of the Catholic Church. Francis and his merry band of liberal heretics need their heads examined.

“Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered.” They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved”

If you’re going to “value” homosexual’ orientations, why not “value” pedophiliac, incestuous, or polygamous orientations?

What value do you see in homosexual orientations, johnie? What do you see they can contribute to the Catholic Church?
