Sodomite propaganda buried in the article ...
Catholic ping!
I understand that the illness of homosexuality is never going to go away
I have always felt sorry for these poor folks. I don’t think they should be persecuted either mentally or physically. Let them live and do whatever they do behind closed doors.
But
There lifestyle is an aberration and should be practiced quietly and discretely. It is not to be legitimized with marriage nor openly in media children can watch.
*snort* Good one.
If the Catholic church EVER capitulates to the gay lobby, in even the most minor way, they’ll lose greater than 85% of their flock overnight. The Vatican knows this. They haven’t been around for 2000 years by being flippant and caving to every political wind that blows by them.
This is the point. The Church is not on a witch-hunt to sniff out suspected gays, either those employed by it or just plain parishioners; after all, homosexual acts are just a sin like any other, and who knows if that person who looks or acts "gay" in the opinion of observers (a) isn't committing such sins at all or (b) is repenting if he does and trying to avoid them.
But "gay marriage" is an attack on the Church's legal and moral teaching and a public, formal act that denies Catholic teaching about the sinfulness of homosexuality. So it simply can't be ignored.
Second attack in a row on dogma. Well, Easter is coming. What can you expect except more of the same. It happens every single year.
From this article, his sexual proclivities matter more than the Eucharist. He exchanged the Presence for nothing by joining some gay church.
and if the Catholic Church wants to remain credible, it too will have spoken and never, ever respond to an article like this.
We here in FR have learned how to kill a thread or an idea by ignoring the poster .... unfortunately, the ______________ sometimes wants to take away our fun by deleting it before we get a chance
Those three theological degrees won’t impress Jesus on Judgment Day.
What this has shown is that “Don’t ask, Don’t tell” leads to “You had better celebrate how I have sex otherwise I will destroy you”.
Government is attempting to redefine sin and religious belief.
Unmarried sex (fornication) and adultery will no longer be considered “sinful” if big government gets its way.
So much for a separation of church and state.
Smash the patriarchy.
The 68 Red Revolution rolls on.
It's been around for a long time. All over the world -- in all denominations.
The Catholic Church has stood staunchly against it.
Catechism of the Catholic Church

2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved. |
Not that everybody else isn't as well. We're all being punished by having this foisted on us.
Then came same-sex marriage, the topic that has roiled traditional religion and rocked the “don’t ask, don’t tell” status quo so common in houses of worship and religious schools.
...all together now...three cheers for the ‘ spirit of Vatican II’...
When the Catholic Church decides doctrine based on popular vote, the gates of hell will prevail.
This is not a “new” test. It’s simply a very old temptation fostered by the fallen LIAR.
Looks as if they gave him the bum rush.
I guarantee you that Catholic gay marriage will never, ever happen. These folks are feeling their oats after so many recent victories. They think they have the whole world with them in everything that they want. In this frame of mind, they will inevitably push their agenda further than it can go.
The refusal of the Catholic church at this point will be fuel for the entire anti-Christian movement, but we knew this would happen eventually, maybe not so fast.
Mike, getting married isn’t making-the-beast-in-church-during-Mass indiscreet, but it’s still kind of hard to hide for very long.
Probably not before the Nov. 2014 elections...but they must have thought of that as a weapon.
Homosexuals have yet to change the definition of “abomination”.
