You’re Islamic?!?It is tough to debate with a rock.

The Church speaks as Christ on moral issues, so yes that is truth.No, I know, you think the Catholic Church has universal claim on the truth and anyone who denies its authority denies the truth.
an apology is an attempt to amend for wrongs committed.Then you need to meet more.
When did the Church say She sinned? The last Pope apologized for the way some in the Church acted. That is no proof the Church sinned, nor is it proof all the crusades were unjust.
so did david koresh.The Church speaks as Christ on moral issues, so yes that is truth.
Is it important?im sure it wasnt 100%, just as i know it wasnt 0%, but again, since well never actually know how many were ever accused of it, since not all molestation gets reported, and the church would shuffle around many who were accused.
how about you? do you know? or did you ever even care enough to ask why it was ever allowed to happen in the first place? or do you deny it ever happened?
There is a distinction between the sinless Church and the sinners within the Church. IOW, She cannot teach error, but humans can sin.an apology is an attempt to amend for wrongs committed.
unless youre thinking of the OTHER way to apologize, what is it? oh! lip service!
that pope, what a sincere guy!
He did? Did he trace his office back to Christ?so did david koresh.
he WAS christ.He did? Did he trace his office back to Christ?
the church is those who run it.There is a distinction between the sinless Church and the sinners within the Church. IOW, She cannot teach error, but humans can sin.
No, he thought he was.he WAS christ.
is it important? not really, i dont care. i just thought we had a synergy going.Is it important?
How far back should a study go in your opinion?
No, the Church is the Bride of Christ.the church is those who run it.
The Church is both divine and human. The government is certainly not divine.thats like saying the government is blameless, but the people IN government arent. thats insane troll logic.
The Nature and Scope of the Problemi dont know what that is, but i dont trust anything with two first names.
Would by nice to see a definitive study of the abuse by homosexual teachers of their students in public school systems.In June 2002 the full body of Catholic bishops of the United States in their General Meeting in Dallas approved the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People. The Charter created a National Review Board, which was assigned responsibility to commission a descriptive study, with the full cooperation of the dioceses/eparchies, of the nature and scope of the problem of sexual abuse of minors by clergy. The National Review Board engaged the John Jay College of Criminal Justice of the City University of New York to conduct research, summarize the collected data and issue a summary report to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops of its findings.
Thus, for example, in both actual numbers and percentages, sexual abuse of children by teachers, coaches, and employees in public schools exceeds anything that occurred in Catholic institutions. Furthermore, in contrast to Catholic institutions, sexual abuse of children in public schools is still occurring in significant numbers. Prof. Carol Shakeshaft, an expert cited by Hamilton, told Education Week, “So we think the Catholic Church has a problem? . . . The physical sexual abuse of students in [public] schools is likely more than 100 times the abuse by priests.”
Why is stating an historical fact rude?That’s rudeness. You don’t realize that some people have dedicated their life to study so you ca go to the pharmacy and buy an aspirin.
One thing you can accomplish is to despute their false ideas in order that others will see that they are false.One can never convince the worldly of anything spiritual. It is futility. The carnal man simply can not understand spiritual truth. One must first make peace with God. Arguing with these people about homosexuality* first* will never accomplish anything.
I can’t comment on the scientific validity of research I haven’t read, but your proposal above is very easily tested, Elizabeth502. If it were true, we should find far higher rates of homosexuality among children raised by single parents.That has NOT been proven. You need to read more widely and listen to those who have studied the formation of sexuality and the varieties of situations leading to that. The latest research rather indicates a stronger likelihood of a combination of inclination and environment as the combined formative elements, with in fact environment being the more determinant aspect. That is because it is not external physical behaviors per se (role modeling of lifestyles) that most produce an “imprinting” onto the young psyche, but rather the absence of positive same-sex (not opposite sex) role-modeling for the young child in a way that allows that child to identify. It’s the perceived deficit of positive identity that draws the child away from embracing the particular same-sex in the parent, replacing that archetype with a same-sex stranger with whom the child feels freer to communicate, be understood, etc.
This tendency is particularly prominent in males and appears to confirm other evidence of insufficient/superficial parenting by too many fathers. (I’m going by what I heard from a degreed expert in the field who was on the radio recently; wish I could remember the name.) Thus, fathers who are more emotionally available to their sons and actively communicate acceptance to their sons – including of any “softness” in the personality or anything that stereotypically or traditionally is considered “feminine,” are more likely to raise heterosexual sons than homosexual ones.
Because it’s genetic, your parents have no control of genetics.
Except for the fact that no peer-reviewed studies have actually proved that this is true, just junk science the OP keeps posting all over these forums.So as the title says “Children Raised by Homosexuals are 7 times more likely to be Gays or Bisexuals” I guess these children just happened to break statistics and have 7 times the homosexual gene while being raised by gays or bisexuals?
Many old sayings are amazingly true, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree”.
