I'm now officially a Fallen Away Catholic. I'm not a Protestant, which is quite a different thing.
I totally understand what my cousins across the pond are feeling. I'm so sick of the Catholic Church and its weird problems that it is incapable of addressing in any meaningful way. I mourned the loss for a few years, but I'm over it now.
At least with "gay marriage" (an oxymoron if there ever was one) you have the perversion of sodomy out in the open instead of skulking in the sacristy. I prefer it this way over all the children molested by priests in secret and all of those destroyed lives. At least this way I know who the enemy is.
At least it will be out in the open, you say. You are correct. The disgusting acts will be out in the open, now. Your choosing-evil Judas Priest will be out in the open with it. Is that better?
Smack your wife that she flies onto her backside, but do it out in the open at least, so we can all see and celebrate the nasty wound in the making.
Forget trying to get control of your danged self.
