Those who believe in gay sex/marriage should not post about that here. “where will we hear it?” From the Pope, from Catholic newspapers and magazines. This forum should not be a place to be used as free advertising and promotion for legalized gay sex.
Well In truth I have mixed feelings. If it is a general question about the Church teachings and explanation of the teachings, fine, but what we have too often, IMHO is finding constant circular arguments being repeated over and over, which must be challenged, until it starts getting ugly. Myself I have set personal moratoriums, only allowing myself to be drawn into the discussions attempting to defend the teachings of the Church.
That is one point where these so-called gay contradict themselves. They want us to believe that they are living a chaste life. But they keep on coming out proclaiming themselves as gay. What for? According to them, because they are “sexually attracted” to their same kind. Which they say, mean among others, they want to have sex with their same kind. But according to Jesus, the mere thought of wanting to have sex with another not one’s spouse is already a violation. How then could they still claim to be celibate when as they proclaim to the world that they are gay, they are doing it to let the world know that they want to have sex with their same kind? And since they persist on proclaiming to everyone that they are gay, therefore they are proclaiming to everyone that their wanting to have sex with their same kind is persistent.
Oh, heck yes. Conservative Christians are just plain obsessed with sex, period. Honestly, I don’t understand the obsession, since it has little to do with Christ’s life. As to the question of banning discussion of gay marriage, I am new here and don’t know the history of the forums, but I wonder why ban a topic? If the arguments one way or the other are so weak that they can’t hold a discussion, perhaps they shouldn’t be held at all.
The reason to ban it is to exclude this forum from being used as a free advertising and promotion space for gay sex.
bennie,
annn,
On a Catholic forum, censorship that serves a good purpose is appropriate.
jean the topic of the thread is: Should we have a moratorium on discussions about same-sex marriage? Sin of homosexuality should be a given concerning Church teaching of the subject, but that is not the topic of the thread. But once again the topic is being diverted (highjacked) and you fell for it by “gay” rights appoligists. Just like I did a few post ago.
Let the self-proclaimed gays repeat over over again their arguments until they come to realize to their heart’s content of the futility and ridiculousity of their arguments.
This is exactly the reason the topic of discussion should not be banned. Sure it might seem like the same thing over and over, but we are constantly getting new members or having unregistered viewers read the site. It is much less daunting to start reading a new thread thats 5 or 6 pages long than to read an old one that is 70 pages long. If it can lead people to the truth on this topic, it is worth it.
There may be others who are not yet living together but simply planning to. But before they finally jump into the river they have some doubts that they want resolved. Hence, let us give them a chance. In case it should happen that it is the devil himself we are dealing with, we are sure that the devil never wins against Christ. Hope for the good is always there.
No more excuses or exceptions. Catholics have got to realize that some people here are not telling the truth. Period. They want free advertising for gay sex and will say anything to keep it. They might even call themselves Catholics. There are people who are paid money to post messages on internet forums like this one. They pretend to be an average person. In fact, they are called astroturf - fake grass roots.
Did what go there, but I agree there are activist, I don’t know if they get paid put the spend time going to forums and starting discussions of things such as gay marriage etc. It is true, and was one the tatics the Democratic presidiential campain was promoted on the internet. and you are right to point that out, never heard the term astroturf before, but you are right on that.
LOL It’s the Homosexual Agenda, right? Who is paying the money?
