I received a high quality education at a nonCatholic university. Since it was not under Catholic restrictions we could have a Gay and Lesbian support group. I se no problem with that.
The reason we see a problem with our so called ‘Catholic’ schools supporting Homosexual groups, or ‘Gay pride’ events, is that they are encouraging people to explore a ‘sexuality’ that in disordered and contrary to God’s design. Plus homosexual sex, ultimately, is the heart of the homosexual lifestyle and we(Catholics) know that these acts are a sin.
Well Drexel University is high quality.
So anything tha tis not 100% conformity with Catholic faith is not high quality. That is irrational thinking.Thinking that supports homosexuality and perversion is “irrational thinking”. Homosexuality is perverse and unnatural, therefore irrational. You can dress it up, but you cannot change it.Well Drexel University is high quality.
Thank you for saving me some time
How can you claim that those with SSAD are justified in practicing the Gay lifestyle when you tell us that you don’t practice it?
It depends on what is the gay lifestyle. I am against militant activism against the Church but I support a person’s prerogative to have sex with the adult of their choice as long as it is not incest, pedophilia, or they are already committed to someone else. I would not deny two homosexuals a loving monogamous relationship. They don’t have to publicly flaunt it but what they do behind closed doors is none of my business just like I don’t really want heterosexuals to overdo the affection in public places.
The Truth comes out.
Your view contradicts itself, how can you draw the line between these two, they are both unnatural practice.
But you said,
And it’s stuff like this that persecutes the Church.
It’s not pastoral to confirm someone in their sin.
This thinking sounds Satanic to me.
Now it goes from the ridiculous to the sublime. I am being accused of being Satanic. I have only stated that I do not object to two monogamous homosexuals being in a relationship as they are not publicly flaunting it against the Church. This is a middle ground apprach which should respect both parties, the Church and the nonmilitant homosexuals. And as for the attacks on my education, it was high quality.
You may have knowledge, but you lack wisdom.
The only wisdom is taught by Catholic universities? I don’t think so.
Even the Pope has stated we cannot force faith on others. I therefore feel we cannot force our morality on others either. If they come into the Church then they are expected to live by the rules. Otherwise I commend them for trying a monogamous relationship if that is the best they can do.
I’m confused, goofyjim. You’ve stated before that you yourself refrain from homosexual activity; i.e. are a “chase gay” person, if you don’t mind, which is perfectly in line with Church teachings, and I think is great that you can do that.
I don’t want to get into what’s right and what’s wrong in the Church’s eyes, we already know that, but I wonder how you can on one hand believe that a chase gay lifestyle is preferable for you but on the other hand support what the Church considers a sinful lifestyle for others.
Is it that you don’t want to be “judgmental” of others, do you believe that such “loving monogamous relationship(s)” are consistant with Church teachings or did I miss something?
I don’t want to start an arguement, but your position(s) seem inconsistant to me. Will you explain? Thanks.
Certainly we can force our morality on others. All of law is the forcing of morality on the minority(criminals) by the majority (non-criminals). Were morality not forced upon others, the world would be a jungle, with the strong exploiting the weak. What homosexuals are involved in is a violation of not only morality, but of the natural law as well. If we expect only “the best that they can do”, then we (society) will get exactly what we demand. Humans are capable of more than this.
