Exactly what the #@($*@) do you think "intrinsically evil" is? Can one commit acts that are "intrinsically evil" and not commit a sin? Why does it not surprise me that you too are acting obtuse about this? SD

Calm yourself, Dave. Can you please tell us where the words "intrinsically evil" appear in the quotations regarding homosexuality? You may need to see my prior post to you on this question.

Here's a gay site:

We live in a world in which religious beliefs are not simply personal, but continually threaten to spill over to public policy and law. The Vatican has repeatedly urged the U.S. Catholic hierarchy to lead the fight against gay rights legislation, same-sex marriage, and even safe sex education. The Christian Coalition and similar groups do the same. For queers to criticize them - and to work against them - is not "Catholic bashing" but a model of self- respect and political organizing. When Tony Kushner criticizes the Pope and the American Bishops for their virulently homophobic beliefs -- particularly the dogma that homosexual acts are "intrinsically evil" and that homosexuality is an "objective disorder" or as a Vatican document stated in 1986 referring to AIDS that "homosexuality may seriously threaten the lives and well-being of a large number of people" - is he Catholic bashing or simply exerting his right to define his own life and sense of self.
Looks like the gay community thinks that the RCC thinks their activities are "evil". You think maybe Dave got to them too?
