Truth is truth, even if no one believes it. Falsehood is falsehood, even if everyone believes it. What becomes of the souls of those who make people living in mortal sin comfortable in this life and cause them to lose their immortal souls? Homosexual tendencies are a heavy, painful cross to bear, and those who struggle with them need our prayers, compassion, and encouragement to live a chaste life in accordance with the teachings of the Church.
you don’t get banned for having a different point of view, but there is a lot of claims that you have made that nearly warrant a thread each by themselves, you can get a warning for derailing a thread or insulting a poster rather than debating their view,
Nonsense. So you are saying that men who do not masturbate have emotional issues? So you either commit mortal sin or you have emotional issues?
This is why God destroyed sodom and Gomarrah, plus there is quite a few verses that speak against homosexuality.
that’s another thing you should know, if your banned you can’t open another account under a different pseudo name. so it probably wouldn’t be advisable to alert the moderators you’ve done that by posting same

OOPS----I WROTE THIS WHOLE POST AND THEN REALIZED I PUT IT ON THE WRONG “QUOTE”. I THINK WE ALL KNOW WHICH ONE I MEANT TO ADDRESS THOUGH–AND I APOLOGIZE IT’S ON THE WRONG ONE. I JUST DON’T KNOW HOW TO CHANGE IT NOW SO I AM ADDING THIS EDIT INSTEAD. SORRY!:banghead:
The “gay community” can never be accepted. It is a self-affirming label and community of sinners who have not only unabashedly given in to their sin, but have glorified it, and made it an idol. They are unrepentant as a “community”. Now, as Christians, we are already called, (and I hope all of us are responding), to love all persons. And if anyone suffering under the cross of same sex attraction is struggling to remain chaste, and staying away, the best they can from the lifestyle, etc. etc., then they are not going to be self-identifying as “gay” to begin with. And certainly not advocating for homosexual sex, and lobbying for same sex marriage laws, etc. There are plenty of homosexual men and women who are aware they are going through a struggle. They are, have been, and always will be more than welcome. But those who are part of the “gay community”, which implies love of sodomy…no shame…idolotry of sexuality over all other aspects of human existence…and a lot of other anti-Christian traits…well, I’m not sure they are even interested while lost in their sins, in BEING a part of our Church, except with the idea of desecrating the sacraments, and politicizing the mystical body of Christ. Any one of them, separated from the culture they identify themselves with, is just an individual Child of God, and if sorrowful for their sins, like heterosexuals who sin through fornication, adultery, pornography, etc., they come and stand in line with me at the confessional, and come with me to the alter to accept the body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus Christ with me as my brother. No problems. People who identify as being in the “gay community” aren’t likely to be in line with me at the confessional, because they have come to believe their sin is special, and a mistake by God. That just because their love for the sin is strong, that it can’t be a sin. This isn’t useful. Until this attitude, by this particular group of sinners starts to drop away, and they are individual repentant sinners, then you’re not likely to see an all out welcoming committee for the persons who consider themselves an actual member of the LGBT community. Just each single person who is open to the idea of their sex acts being sinful, and who break away themselves from this community of promotional sin, is welcome in every single way. And this is already the case.
One other thing to note was the beginning of the passage. The brought this woman to Jesus to test Him,
.Good point. One also gets the feeling that we are being brought a test.One other thing to note was the beginning of the passage. The brought this woman to Jesus to test Him,
What exactly was the test then? If He denied the Mosaic law, then they could denounce Him to the people.
If He upheld the stoning, they could denounce Him to the Romans, as only they could inflict Capital Punishment
So Christ did not deny the Law of Moses ( nor could He, as He was the author of that Law), but did so in a way that could not be taken to the Romans.
Much like the coin and paying to Caesar
To see if he
Lol. I nearly used my entire word limit to say (poorly), what this says in three very short paragraphs. Good post.
Well if someone was a notorious member of a “swingers” club there might be the same response. Or someone advocating “guilt free masturbation for all.” And wearing the tee shirts etc.
You might also want to look up what the Pope stated about the Church’s moral teaching on homosexuality, he stated the teachings were correct and that he agreed with them.
It’s sad that so many see nothing wrong with this.Can we all say together, T R O L L!Homosexuality is not good because people say it is. Transexuality is worse. You don’t change faith on this because it’s politically safe to do it. But it’s been accepted by many who don’t challenge views given, even when gays do wrong things as Milk did. Heros for homosexuals are cowards who sexually abuse teenage boys such as Harvey B. Milk (even the gays confess that Milk is their hero), see americansfortruth.com/2013/10/28/barber-sexual-predator-harvey-milk-honored-with-postage-stamp/. He had 2 victims-including 1 who is handicapped but he has a day named after him in California and now a stamp
Calling someone a troll is a quick way to get suspendedCan we all say together, T R O L L!
