As I have said before: Within 50 years it will be the Catholic Church alone standing against same sex unions.

I wager 4 to 6 years for the Catholic church.

Don’t be so smug. The Methodist Church officially is against same sex unions yet have been invaded by liberals and your precious Catholic Church is in the same boat.............

“As I have said before: Within 50 years it will be the Catholic Church alone standing against same sex unions.”

I have no desire to get in a dispute with someone enamored with Roman Catholicism. We are all responsible before God in what we embrace as true.

However, when someone makes an foolish statement, it has to be countered. Your current “Pope” is already starting to raffle on this issue and shut down a conservative bishop in this country. I wished you were right that Rome would not cave on this, but I fear you are in error. The road that Roman Catholics are on is a downhill slide...and has been for years.

My own brand of Christianity (Southern Baptist evangelicals) has take a strong stand on this and we remove from fellowship those churches that embrace that “homosexuality is OK.” The only changes lately is that we recognize the sin of homosexuality is just like any other sin a person is ensnared by (fornication, adultery, drunkiness, all kinds of immorality, etc.) It cannot be cured by secular methodologies. It requires a spriritual cure that can only come by the Grace of God through the Lord Jesus Christ. Of course, we have our “heretics” as well, but they are policed by other churches.

Not all “evangelical protestants” are sliding down the tubes.
