I’d say the image of God would demand three parents and an integrated unity of spiritual being consistent with an individualized yet autonomous inherent connection to extrinsic divinity. Nothing gray about that archtypical pattern of abstract unambiguity.

So, Adam, Eve, and Steve.

they named him Cain though.:DThe Holy Spirit is Giver of Life. In the unity of the Father and Son the Holy Spirit proceeds and is known as the Power of God. The image and likeness in man: In the unity of Body and Soul a Person proceeds

In the image and spiritual consistency of pure being, the moved effected not just the moving, but the unmoved transcendence, generating he who named not the self, but embodied and personified the essence of Adam, Eve, and Steve.

Paragraph 6. Man
[355](javascript:openWindow(‘cr/355.htm’)😉 "God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them."218 Man occupies a unique place in creation: (I) he is “in the image of God”; (II) in his own nature he unites the spiritual and material worlds; (III) he is created “male and female”; (IV) God established him in his friendship.
** I. “IN THE IMAGE OF GOD” **
[356](javascript:openWindow(‘cr/356.htm’)😉 Of all visible creatures only man is “able to know and love his creator”.219 He is “the only creature on earth that God has willed for its own sake”,220 and he alone is called to share, by knowledge and love, in God’s own life. It was for this end that he was created, and this is the fundamental reason for his dignity:

What made you establish man in so great a dignity? Certainly the incalculable love by which you have looked on your creature in yourself! You are taken with love for her; for by love indeed you created her, by love you have given her a being capable of tasting your eternal Good.221
[357](javascript:openWindow(‘cr/357.htm’)😉 Being in the image of God the human individual possesses the dignity of a person, who is not just something, but someone. He is capable of self-knowledge, of self-possession and of freely giving himself and entering into communion with other persons. And he is called by grace to a covenant with his Creator, to offer him a response of faith and love that no other creature can give in his stead.
[358](javascript:openWindow(‘cr/358.htm’)😉 God created everything for man,222 but man in turn was created to serve and love God and to offer all creation back to him:

What is it that is about to be created, that enjoys such honor? It is man that great and wonderful living creature, more precious in the eyes of God than all other creatures! For him the heavens and the earth, the sea and all the rest of creation exist. God attached so much importance to his salvation that he did not spare his own Son for the sake of man. Nor does he ever cease to work, trying every possible means, until he has raised man up to himself and made him sit at his right hand.223
[359](javascript:openWindow(‘cr/359.htm’)😉 "In reality it is only in the mystery of the Word made flesh that the mystery of man truly becomes clear."224

St. Paul tells us that the human race takes its origin from two men: Adam and Christ. . . The first man, Adam, he says, became a living soul, the last Adam a life-giving spirit. The first Adam was made by the last Adam, from whom he also received his soul, to give him life. . . The second Adam stamped his image on the first Adam when he created him. That is why he took on himself the role and the name of the first Adam, in order that he might not lose what he had made in his own image. The first Adam, the last Adam: the first had a beginning, the last knows no end. The last Adam is indeed the first; as he himself says: "I am the first and the last."225
[360](javascript:openWindow(‘cr/360.htm’)😉 Because of its common origin the human race forms a unity, for “from one ancestor [God] made all nations to inhabit the whole earth”:226

O wondrous vision, which makes us contemplate the human race in the unity of its origin in God. . . in the unity of its nature, composed equally in all men of a material body and a spiritual soul; in the unity of its immediate end and its mission in the world; in the unity of its dwelling, the earth, whose benefits all men, by right of nature, may use to sustain and develop life; in the unity of its supernatural end: God himself, to whom all ought to tend; in the unity of the means for attaining this end;. . . in the unity of the redemption wrought by Christ for all.227
[361](javascript:openWindow(‘cr/361.htm’)😉 “This law of human solidarity and charity”,228 without excluding the rich variety of persons, cultures and peoples, assures us that all men are truly brethren.
 
“God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them”

If God isn’t male, and isn’t female, then where did the male/female thing come from? How’s that part of the image?

You made the claim, so, I presume you know the answer. Go ahead. Don’t pass it off to someone else. Give it a try.

I figure the image of God would have three sexes if God is actually three persons. Now, if god were two persons, two sexes would make sense.
 
God eternally generates Cognizance of himself. God knowing God.

A union of likeness is knowledge in it’s deepest form. To know fully one must be ‘like’. thus Adam say’s when eve is revealed, "flesh of my flesh bone of my bone. In the unity of Adam and Eve Cain proceeds
In the unity of Man and Woman the human race proceeds.

In the unity of body and soul man proceeds. After exhausting all external sources for a suitable companion ( Naming by necessity requires knowing) the remedy for what man lacked was found within.

Knowing the transcendent form of intrinsic unity flowing from the well of introspective trilateralism proceeds in the primary substantive form to the exogenous examination of the endogenous reveals Adam, Eve, and Steve.

Thats not fair ditch…you cant say its the churches fault that marriage is losing its value, or people are falling away from the faith because of a few priests actions…yes, your right, ANY child being molested by ANY man is a sad, terrible thing…but if a teacher molested a student (which has happened) would you say ALL teachers are bad? would you not send your kid to school? A doctor messes up during surgery? Are ALL doctors bad? if you were dying would you not go see one??

— oh whoops!! lmbo!! you guys are on like, page 10!! I was reading that guy ditches comment like, 5 pages ago and wrote in response…sorry!! its all random…
 
Same-sex marriage would legitimize homosexuality, which harms a person not only spiritually, but mentally and physically as well.

glma.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=Page.viewPage&pageID=690
Even the Gay and Lesbian Medical Association acknowledges that homosexuals have disproportionate rates of sexually transmitted diseases, depression, cancers etc. If we love our homosexual brothers and sisters in Christ why on earth would we enable this harmful lifestyle?

Wrong. When two people love each other in a legitimate union, a third is produced that is the fruit of that love. The result of the love between the first two persons of the Trinity is the third person, the Holy Spirit. Two gay people cannot intrinsically produce a third.

That’s the same bill that extends protection to Catholics.

Dream on.

Being Catholic is not a mortal sin. Mortal sin is always indefensible, yet the homosexual activists not only demand that you embrace it, they can now prosecute.

As J Denise stated, mortal sinfulness harms the individual, the society, the cosmos. We cannot serve both God and the devil.
