Christian love involves truth YET you refer to a newsweek article?

Impeach the source all you want, but the contents are completely consistent with the history of homosexuals in the Catholic Church.

I will not wast time with the garbage you wish to feed me

And yet you take the time to post.

I would prefer that you yourself show some spine and post your thoughts rather than hide behind some garbage giggling like some spineless leftist would.

Fine. My "thoughts" are that the Catholic Church is deeply infiltrated with homosexuals and is doing pitifully little to correct the situation. Certainly not a matter to "giggle" about.

As Catholic I am an avowed member of anti marriage equality, anti homosexual love, mean spirited, hateful, bigoted, and heterosexist evil empire, are you a member yet?

Anyway, I suggest you review this recent document that directly is on point (did newsweek mention it?). This was published not as new teaching but to reinforce what has always been known and taught. It is true that leftism and depravity has invaded all institutions including the Church. After reading then point me in the direction of anything comparable as far as clarity in any other Christian 'religion'.

Instruction Concerning the Criteria for the Discernment of Vocations with regard to Persons with Homosexual Tendencies in view of their Admission to the Seminary and to Holy Orders

small excerpt:

Introduction

In continuity with the teaching of the Second Vatican Council and, in particular, with the Decree Optatam Totius[1] on priestly formation, the Congregation for Catholic Education has published various Documents with the aim of promoting a suitable, integral formation of future priests, by offering guidelines and precise norms regarding its diverse aspects.[2] In the meantime, the 1990 Synod of Bishops also reflected on the formation of priests in the circumstances of the present day, with the intention of bringing to completion the doctrine of the Council on this theme and making it more explicit and effective in today's world. Following this Synod, Pope John Paul II published the Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Pastores Dabo Vobis.

In light of this abundant teaching, the present Instruction does not intend to dwell on all questions in the area of affectivity and sexuality that require an attentive discernment during the entire period of formation. Rather, it contains norms concerning a specific question, made more urgent by the current situation, and that is: whether to admit to the seminary and to holy orders candidates who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies.
