Catholic ping!
fear of being made fun of as out of step etc...
Nothing new.
In the case of Catholics, who rely on their priest to tell them what the bible says, and few of them bother to attend religious services, so wouldn't know even if their priest did repeat the clear scriptures that people who commit homosexual sins are an abomination of God and those who agree with them and keep company with homosexuals are judged the same, especially if they claim to be believers!
For certain, most evangelical Protestants know those verses in both the Old and New Testaments (in Jesus' own words as well) and also know the penalty for those sins. Our pastors (real evangelical Protestants), if they avoid teaching biblical principles, need to find other day jobs.
I don't know what is expected from Catholic leaders but I do know many tended to look the other way on homosexual priests who molested young teen boys, which God not only considers an abomination but the case of the leaders, God says it would be better not to have been born.
Pretty clear association of sin and really bad punishment.
Can i get added to the Catholic ping list?
