And the Christian religion as we know it will cease to exist except in the hearts and minds and living rooms of believers.

I dunno. Lots of very upset folks in a number of congregations I'm familiar with, across the age spectrum. I suspect Catholics are setting up for a long-needed purge. A serious effort to redirect money into social advocacy is coming. And a whole lot of prayer is going up about our political situation.

Body: 7 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved
