"However, I do not agree that if someone employs a homosexual, they are endorsing the sin."

Think Christ would employ a non repentant homosexual as one of His disciples? I doubt it. He'd try to change him but Santorum claims to be against it yet when a homosexual can better him in some way, he's quick to throw those public "principles" out the window.

"Santorum has also been rather outspoken about his belief that the use of birth control is wrong. Is he a hypocrite if any of the people in his office use birth control?"

This is NOT about "birth control". This is about endorsing homosexuality. No topic switching. BTW, I don't have a problem with birth control. Most Catholics don't either so it's a non issue.

"I am sure he is against adultery as well. Do you condemn Santorum if one of his staff members has an affair? "

Again, this topic is about homosexuality. Putting a homosexual in a postion of authority when Santorum states he is AGAINST homosexuality, well except when it can BEBEFIT him. It's called selective hypocrisy.

Yaawwwwnnn - I wish you could stay on topic. Atleast someone having an affair is attracted to the proper gender. Homosexuals can't even get THAT right.

"Now, if you have other problems with Santorum, that's a different matter."

He's a hypocrite.

"But everybody sins, and the vast majority of people are habitual, practicing sinners. Are you saying Santorum is a hypocrite if he has anything to do with people?"

Sure people do. Santorum claims to be Mr. Family man with godly values etc, but when it comes to bettering himself, he'll resort to anything - including using an immoral homosexual. As far as I know, not EVERYONE IS a HOMOSEXUAL so in my book, he can utilize other people without resorting the EXTREME you present:

"Santorum is a hypocrite if he has anything to do with people?"

Why is it people like you can NOT stay on topic, homosexuality and have to drag in everything but the kitchen sink to mitigate the glaring hypocrisy that is going on with him? So sad.

I am not changing the subject, but that's it with you nmh. You're not even listening.

I don't think homosexuality is worse than adultery, or premarital sex, or unlawful divorce or lying or anything else.

I DO believe that there is a pervasive homosexual agenda that must be challenged, BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE IS ABOUT.

I DO know that some conservatives are angry with Santorum for other reasons, BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE IS ABOUT.

THIS is about the fact that Rick Santorum thinks homosexual sex is wrong but he employs a homosexual.

MY QUESTION IS, why does that make him a hypocrite? Rick Santorum thinks a number of things are sins (fornication, using birth control, adultery), but no one here is saying he is a hypocrite for employing OTHER kinds of sinners (it would be IMPOSSIBLE for him to avoid employing sinners). So why is this sin so special?

"Most Catholics don't either so it's a non issue"

Santorum most definately does have a problem with BC and it is as great a sin in Catholic eyes as homosexuality.

Think Christ would employ a non repentant homosexual as one of His disciples? I doubt it.

Christ didn't employ women as disciples either...and your point is?
