Loving our LGBT neighbor without compromising the truth?

I think you misunderstood, or maybe I wasn’t clear. I’m not saying that I *agree *with that interpretation of causing scandal, I’m saying that’s the predominant opinion.

Oh, good Thanks for clarifying.
For those who actually believe in that interpretation my point stands.

In the first place, we don’t categorize persons by their sexual orientations or acts. So we don’t “tell them” what the catechism says about sexuality. We treat each other as whole persons.

Most people don’t discuss personal sexuality with one another unless they are fairly close. I have two openly gay clients who have never once talked about their sexuality. Why would they?

**Honestly, this idea that Catholics go looking for people to yell at is prejudice./**QUOTE]

I have been yelled at many times by evangelicals for being overtly Catholic, ie selling rosaries at street markets, Not good believe me and there is no way I would ever return the "favour"to anyone… None of our business really and we do more by being kind,

Just help them like any other human being.

Is it possible that by “scandal” you mean you are afraid what people will think of you for helping an outcast?
Don’t worry what people think of you.
