My belief is that there is no condemnation or attack in Love. That a parent *corrects* a child can be a very loving thing. I agree.

Ok, there we have an agreement that a correction can be a very loving thing from a parent.

Why does the homosexual community get so bent out of shape with the Catholic Church when we are lovingly sending the corrective message to them that homosexuality is a sin from which they must repent because not to do so will result in their spiritual harm?

It is expected of all sinners to repent of their sins and not to flagarantly show it in the Church. Would you expect to see an unrepentant murderer next to you in the pews going around bragging about their crime to all the parishioners? Would you expect to see an adulterer flaunting his mistress next to him on the pews?

Scripture tells us that we are suppose to seperate ourselves from others who engage in behaviors unacceptable to the Church. /p>

Why is that the homosexuals think they are the only ones that get a free pass on sin and all others in the Church have to accept it?

Its really quite simple, as I have stated before:

"homosexuality, particularly among men is a mental disorder that often manifests itself in narccisstic and self destructive actions. "

Which is exactly why they expect the world to bend to them.

Well there is a hard question. I don't know why(g). But I know that here in Utah people want the Mormon Church to change as well. And the Mormon Church did change. It used to be that blacks could not hold the preisthood and now they can. So my guess is that, as with other issues, the homosexuals want change.

I think that there plenty of adulterers in church(g) - think of Clinton, Kennedy etc . And if we include all sin - there are multitudes of sinners in church - right(g)?

It will be interesting to see what happens.
