I've never listened to EWTN but if homosexuals find "comfort" in their broadcasts and "uncomfortable" with others that should tell us something, shouldn't it? Showing the "utmost respect" to homosexuals do not help them grow in the grace of God. When we shy away from discussing God's wrath and judgment on sin and corruption to solely focus on discussing God's love, we do God a disservice.
Contrary to what the Catholic Church would have one believe, homosexuality is nothing more than wonton sin which is excused or ignored. This is not what the scriptures teaches. Homosexuality is an abomination to God and is something that God can help people overcome if they come to Him and acknowledge their sinfulness.
For the Catholic Church to relegate it to nothing more than impulse to be surpress, the Catholic Church does not encourage people to seek God's help in solving this issue or do they call it for what it is-sin. They are false teachers leading people not to see God's perfection but encouraging them to excuse their own sin.
I hope that's a bit clearer.

I missed that in the article. Where did EWTN give comfort to homosexuals?

The Catholic Church is, well, catholic. Catholic just means universal, the same always and everywhere. The Catholic Church never taught that homosexuality is “nothing more than impulse to be surpress”. If you see anyone teaching this novelty, they are not Catholic in line with what the church has always taught. They are no different than the persoanl opinions of liberal Protestants. If you can find any Catholic authority, say 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, years ago, teaching that error, then you’d have a valid pointt, since it has always been, the teaching is universal (catholic).
Homosexuality has always been classified by the Catholic Church as one of the four sins which cry out to Heaven for vengeance. Moreover, even lusting, is considered by the Catholic Church to be a mortal (sould killing deadly) sin, equivalent to having done the act itself!
