Ugh I remember that May 2002, Newsweek article. It came out right around the time of the homosexual pedophile priest scandal. As a catholic, I was so pissed off with the substance of in the article (activist gays are overtaking the priesthood on top of the pedophile scandal) and the tone of the article (see the proganda thread #4 overhumanization), that i tore the stupid thing up and canceled my subscription. I was pissed off and delusioned with my church and with Newsweek. The writer of the "news" article seemed to be happy that the priesthood was swarming with gays, dismissed any claims that homosexuality had anything to do with the scandal, and took a tone of "why cant these gay priests screw eachother, live with eachother, and be happy? The mean church shouldnt judge them." They probably had some gay guy write the thing. Ugh no thanks Newsweek and God bless Pope Benedict

In reality, the fact that priests die of AIDS proves that they commit sin, by which they show not that they are human but that they act in a sub-human manner—sub-human not in any special sense, but in the ordinary sense in which each of us falls short of his true human dignity by sinning, whatever our sin may be.

Interesting article.

Right on.

Just because the enemy breached the main gate is no reason to surrender the castle.

Right on and fight on!

God is on our side.

Your right! Courage=Roman Catholic
Anglican Catholic=Also courage
Anglicans are "breaking" away from Cantebury and going world wide over the issue of "queerdom". This has been going on since 1979 and is gaining strength never expected. Also, opposition, that is expected.
