Faithful Catholics in UK are going to abandon the official church in droves. The next generation will see empty Catholic pews in the country.

This is the lukewarm attitude that Jesus spoke about. Something abouting vomiting them out! Cowards,we need John the Baptist!!

...... gay sexual activity to be sinful.

Who is going to break the news to people that ANY sexual activity outside of marriage is sinful? It does not matter what kind of a caring, loving relationship one is in

It is a pity that some people, and not just homosexuals, will find that news offensive.

This should make it pretty tricky to teach that homosexuality is a sin, but the homosexual is loved and can find healing, as many have, through Christ. Now THAT is love.

Queers and Muslims off limits, one will give you aids the other whack you head off.

[texican01]

Sounds like the Bishop has gone queer like the Anglican Archbishop.

I suspect that God is not happy!

[Hodar]

Now if they can just take out that offensive anti-gay language in the bible.....

I’m sure God will understand how wrong He is...
< yes, I’m being sarcastic>

So much for the ‘’tolerance’’ and ‘’diversity’’ crowd. But the Brits are cowed by any group these days. Pole-smokers and carpet-munchers should be no different.

‘homophobic content’...

Words mean things!

There is no “fear of homosexuals” in Catholic teaching!

There is disapproval of homosexual behavior as there is disapproval of every other offense against God!

[Reaganesque]

And don’t offend adulterers either! Bloody Ten Commandments! /sarc

The proper place of refuge for good Catholics is the Tridentine (Latin) Mass or certain other rites which respect tradition and God’s word.

*sigh*

When is the last time somebody got excommunicated from the Church for something less severe than heading a communist revolution?

[tflabo]

Roman Catholic priests have been banned from using 'heterosexist' language in their churches in case they offend gay worshippers.

Errr.. that includes the Almighty too. They want the line item veto applied to the Bible... Strike out the Leviticus 18:22 verse reference in the revised Modern Gay translation.

[BlessedBeGod]

The Catholic bishops in the UK have been wusses on a lot of things recently. This is only the latest.

[lastchance]

I would approach this report with caution. As I think the Daily Mail is comparable to the National Enquirer.

Also if the letter is addressing how to treat people with same sex attraction who want to remain faithful to the teachings of the Church and remain celibate and chaste I think it is good to remind people not to speak thoughtlessly. If however it is an appeal to accept homosexual behavior and not to speak honestly about it being a sin than the Bishops are in serious error and need to be sent to the woodshed ASAP.

[NYer]

However, he said the 'laudable change of tone' was undermined by the 'homophobic content of the Catholic Catechism' and by Pope Benedict XVI's opposition to gay marriage.

Sorry .... that will NEVER change.

Hey Presido look like Church of England has empty pews because of this
