"The Homosexual Agenda never sleeps. This is despicable."

Well, if you are going to call them despicable, which they certainly are, what word does one use to describe a Priest and parishoners (!?!?!?!) who march amongst them?

Hey, San Fran, your diocese is falling apart!

If California is like San Francisco, maybe it IS ready for Arnold as Governor.

Vote Arnold for Governor: He Really Doesn't Give a Damn!

I asked Healy, "can there be any justification for a Catholic priest and his parish to participate in a blatantly pornographic public display....they will try to justify their actions, but, they will PAY FOR THIS SINFUL DISPLAY ON JUDGEMENT DAY!!!!!

....Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of my pasture [Jeremiah 23:1]

[AlaninSA]

Damn.

There's just so much wrong with that event!

Let me say up front that I'm a big on freedom type. Things done between two consenting adults are really none of my business. Want to be gay? Want to engage in sodomy? Fine. It's up to you - and you'll be seeing the Chief Justice of the Divine Court in the next life.

My acceptance of two consenting adults engaging in homosexual sex hinges on them doing it in private, though. That said, my acceptance of two heterosexual adults engaging in sex hinges on them doing it in private, too.

I love my wife and our love includes privatetimes behind a locked door in our bedroom. You will not see us -- and I'd be intolerant of seeing others -- parading around downtown San Antonio yelling "I REALLY LOVE HAVING SEX WITH MY WIFE/HUSBAND."

That kind of behavior is just wrong. People who do that are doing nothing more than making a fool of themselves.

On another note, most groups and organizations have rules.

I work in the pharma industry. We require that people wear hairnets, gloves - you know, the whole getup to keep our pharma products clean and pure. We would not tolerate a person who claimed that it was his or her right, need or biological mandate to run around shirtless on a pharma packaging line.

Compliance with those rules is a condition of employment.

Some people don't like the rules -- but the rules are the rules and you've no choice but to follow them if your career is in the pharma industry.

The same standard applies to priests - be they Catholic or Anglican.

The Bible has stated that homosexual contact is Against The Rules. A priest who is (a)gay or (b) supportive of the gay lifestyle is breaking The Rules and violating a condition of his employement.

Liberal Lurkers: It is possible to support a person without supporting his or her activities -- ask any parent of two-year-olds.

LOL!!!!

This is so sick as to be hillarious!! Father Phelan? Might as well change his name to Fr. Phallic!

[Right to be Wrong]

Now this is a valid contemporary issue that should catch the attention of our beloved St. Mel Gibson for the next movie on religion

What does "Most Holy" and "HOMOSEXUL" possibly have in common?

[Aliska]

can there be any justification for a Catholic priest and his parish to participate in a blatantly pornographic public display?

It's the in thing to do. The pope doesn't mind as long as it isn't that girl who tore his picture up on stage.

[NYer]

One transvestite paraded a sign that said, "Sodomize me. It's legal."

[Delphinium]

I would say it is clearly time to get out of the Catholic church.

[PaxMacian]

There is an easy and profitable solution to this activity.
This type of demon must be removed from positions of power
in the church at all cost. Identify, contact, and expose them as sexual predators, wolves in sheeps' clothing. If need be, bear false witness, since this sin is forgiveable with penance. Keep in mind, always, the innocent and feeble minded that will be protected from perversion by your actions. Be comfortable in the knowledge that you will simply be using the same tactics which the homosexuals have used for so long now to bleed the church of cash in exchange for silence, only to expose it all at once to discredit the church. Though now the church can not afford the silence and will be forced to send these demons into exile where they belong.

[Nowhere Man]

I don't like the homosexual agenda at all. I refuse to use the word "gay" in discussing this topic, there is nothing gay about it and being a fan of the Victorian/Edwardian Eras, I think it degrades the word "gay." I believe homosexuality is against nature and God. However, "people are going to do what they are going to do" so I think no matter what, there will be people who engage in this behaviour. We can mention the hazzards of this lifestyle and pray and/or try other ways to convince them that it is wrong but in the end if they keep it in their bedrooms and not in public life, well, it's their choice. They should and do have access to jobs and livings like the rest of us do as long as they are qualified (although I draw the line at military service) for the jobs. I've been in such debates before and people have accused me because of my stand on the issue, I'd want all homosexuals to suffer and die. That is complete nonsense although having that behaviour, they open themselves up to the hazzards of SID and AIDS (although heterosexuals who are promiscious can suffer similar fates) along with higher rates od depression and suicide, and so on

These pride parades and the "in your face" stuff is sickening to say the least and if they want to be treated as responsible members of, this is not the way to do in. If I can only say one sentence to then it would be: "Come 'on, guys, grow up, quit acting like spoiled kindergarden kids!"

PING.

The Fr. Phelans of the world might be given pause if this simple policy were enforced:

"Any priest who advocates homosexual practice in any public or private forum shall be suspended from ministry and referred to the appropriate ecclesiastical and civil authorities for investigation into possible sexual offences."

...........yet the Catholic Church is still trying to figure out why they're losing members in droves.

Double Standard Alert

How would the liberal press react if this had been done against a Jewish religious icon by a right wing group?

When a left wing group does wrong, it's just fun. If a right wing group does wrong, the press screams like a stuck pig.

The sisters of perpetual indulgence drove by on a float with the sign, " Weapons of Ass Destruction," with characters dressed as the pope and a cardinal. The character dressed up as the pope was enclosed in a cage.
