Good article by Roman Catholic author Selwyn Duke about an issue that affects not only traditional Roman Catholics but conservative Protestants and Eastern Orthodox as well.

The homosexual LW agenda is to isolate true believers in Jesus Christ and those who find delight in the Law of the Lord. Yes Jesus loves sinners, but Jesus called sinners to repentance. Homosexuals don’t want to repent. In fact they want to recruit others in their sin. So Homosexuals would be considered followers of the Anti-Christ as their actions are Anti-Christlike. So, we know the god Homosexuals follow, the god of this world

And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

This is a singular guarantee given to the Catholic Church. “Fear not”

Yes, indeed. I think of that every single day.

Peter, our first Vicar of Christ.

At the Vatican, at the entrance of St. Peter's Bascilica, there is the list of all the Popes for the last almost 2000 years, with Peter/Simon bar Jonah's name at the top.
Their names ARE engraved in granite.

Since only .5% - 1.5% of the population identifies itself as homosexual (Google), that's a WHOLE lot of hubbub about a pathetically FEW people.

Tempest in a teapot time.


NO ONE cares.

This is one of THE best, clearest, most thorough articles on ‘sticking to your guns’ that I’ve ever read.

I very much appreciate the explanation of temptation.

I’ve never understood the acceptance of temptation. My animal body has urges that are sometimes inappropriate. That’s because we’re human spirits in an animal body. It happens. Gd created these bodies for us and He understands.

But to act on it - that’s the problem.

They have no idea what special treatment they will get from God, do they?

If they were Catholics they KNEW that their homosexuality was/is/always will be a SIN.
If they were NOT Catholics, they MAY have been told that their homosexuality wasn't sinful.

I don't know what all the 30,000-40,000 different Protestant denominations (Google numbers via the Protestants themselves) think about homosexuality. They might have different takes on the wrongness/rightness of it.
I do know that the Episcopalian Church allows homosexuals to marry. Perhaps other Protestant denominations will follow their lead. I hope NOT.

God WILL judge them as He will judge us all.

Why not send the HOMO’s to Saudi Arabia for special treatment?
I’m sure the Muslims will find a way to help these SICKO’s.
Maybe they can get married i.e., one homo can marry up to four more homos. Isn’t life great?

Is the church supposed to say adultery is a sin, fornication is a sin, self-gratification is a sin, viewing pornography is a sin, but homosexuality is, what? A lifestyle choice, sort of like living on a houseboat?

Father Donald Cozzens wrote over 10 years ago that homosexuality had infected the ranks of priests to an alarming degree. No one listened.

I’ve always been perplexed and suspicious about gay activists claiming the Church does nothing but talk about them. They are paranoid liars. I’ve never heard a sermon on homosexuality. Ever.

I have never heard one either. I think gay people are just really self-absorbed. Do they even go to Church? If they go to Mass and hear someone railing against them, I think they should consider that it is not the priest that is talking to them.....

Of course, I never heard anybody talk at Church, except the priest!

Yes, self-absorbed, that’s what it is, alright. “Enough about me - what do YOU think of me?”

One of the big differences between homosexuality and other sin is that most homosexuals have no intention of ever stopping the sin. If there is no contrition, there can be no forgiveness.
