"This strikes me as language from people who profoundly do not understand gay and lesbian people ... who know next to nothing about being gay or lesbian," Robinson, whose ordination as bishop in 2003 plunged the Anglican Church into crisis.

Give me a break! What is there to understand? Homosexual males and females choose to copulate with members of the same gender and they want everyone to accept their immoral choices or else. The Vatican simply chooses not to allow homosexual males who actively engage in this immoral, sexual practice to be priests. So, what's the misunderstanding?

Oh, and he condones LYING also, huh? What a surprise.

I try. I really do try to avoid in recent years arguing with other folks about THEIR non-Catholic religions. There are exceptions:

1. IF a person claims to be Catholic while being excommunicated or schismatic, the person is NOT Catholic and is a fraud.

2. IF a non-Catholic attacks the Roman Catholic Church, there may be an examination of his/her religion in return.

3. Today, let us recognize a third exception: The Vicki Gene exception. When an official of an alien theo/ideology (poofterism) offends many of his/her/its own flock and backs that up by attacking the Catholic Church for not sharing his/her/its delusions as to which body parts go where (his/her/its mouth near a microphone, his/her/its non-Catholic nose in what is and can be only Catholic business and then there is...... well, you know!). That they know not which body part goes where is something that we all know about the lavenders. It is their very defining characteristic.
