Re: Expound for us benighted ones, please...Tell us all about the homosexual traditions in the Church!"

There have been homosexuals in The Church almost from the beginning. Buggery and such was fairly prevalent during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. In fact the Knights Templar concerned that all of this fooling around would lead to an impediment in its ability to fight had specific rules within its own order to diminish the practice including making sure knights slept fully clothed and that there would always be lights on in the barracks.

And there always will be homosexuals in the Church.

Yah, so? It's happening today!! Right here in River City!!!

Now when you state that '...[you] don't know the history of the Church...' in attempting to defend ordaining homosexuals, and then you come back with THIS drivel as "proof" of your contention, it's fairly clear that you're not ready for prime time.
