Evry single human person now a member of the Cathilic Church is a sinner. That's why EVERY MASS starts out with a Penitential Rite and EVERY HOLY COMMUNION is preceded by the words "O Lord, I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof; but only say the word, and my soul will be healed.

That's nice but it doesn't address the issue of the homosexual priests still conducting services in your denomination.

Further, it also ignores that the death of Christ has already healed our soul.

One of many reasons you fail to qualify as an expert on "What Rome Says."

Just another reason you don't qualify as one who rightly handles the Scriptures.

9For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, 10and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority; 11and in Him you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in the removal of the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ; 12having been buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also raised up with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. 13When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions, 14having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. Colossians 2:9-14 NASB

Please tell us what *you" believe.

I have been. I've been posting Scripture for my position....you've posted.....what? The catechism? Your opinion.

Which btw....I remind you that in Roman Catholicism that's about all you have is your opinion....no wait....you really don't even have that.

You're not a priest.

You're not qualified to comment on spiritual matters.

You as a lay Roman Catholic are unable to read the Scriptures for yourself and understand them.

You are just one of a billion or so lay Roman Catholics who are dependent upon your priest(s) to explain things to you.

You are not capable of even understanding the Catechism from a Roman Catholic teaching perspective.

I have no idea how Rome allows lay people like you with no formal training in one of their seminaries to teach those classes.

This is no disrespect intended toward you....it's just the reality of your position in Roman Catholicism.

You're at 009 now, second accounting series. You may make another 350 errors on Catholic doctrine before Christmas. Go for it!

"That's nice but it doesn't address the issue of the homosexual priests still conducting services in your denomination."

The verbiage on this thread has been flying so thick and fast, you must have missed what I posted to you at

#193

Here,I'll repeat myself. That doesn't seem to make any impression, but I'll repeat myself anyway:

"BTW, deviant gay intercourse, like every other kind of deviant perverse intercourse, is a sin.

When anybody does that, clergy or laity, gay or straight, male or female, married or unmarried, drunk or sober, closeted or loud and proud, it is a sin. If you don't repent and you receive ANY Sacrament unrepentant, that is another sin on top of the first one.

Called sacrilege."

Sacrilegious activities of any kind are unlawful. A priest being in mortal sin does not affect the action of a Liturgy or a Sacrament by his gross unworthiness (since the priest is not acting on his own power or merit, but Christ's) --- however the sodomite priest himself is personally guilty of sacrilege, which is frightfully evil, and he is answerable for that to God.

He ought to be removed, as Abp. Viganò said. Those who know of his sodomy and permit it to continue, are also guilty of being accessories to his sin.

Catholics --- including priests and hierarchs --- violating Catholic moral law constitutes a real horror.

That does not invaldidate Catholic moral law. It calls out all the more urgently for its enforcement.

I hope all will pray with me for the repentance of Catholic sinners, together with all sinners everywhere.
