More Evidence Homosexual Sex is Against The Natural Law?

[CathCentrist]

Can’t someone just say it? Homosexuality is immoral and those who practice it commit a mortal sin. Practicing homosexuals need to be prayed for in hopes that they will turn away from their sins and seek the forgiveness of God. The real health issue is the health of one’s soul…

Its been talked about here ad NAUSEUM…much more than:
Murder
The poor
The indigent

All of which God spoke out against MORE SO than being gay

But those issues arent as tantalizing as SEX…as usual, Americans bizarre fascination with sex bad violence and suffering, not so bad

It has nothing to do with tantalizing sex…in fact, I don’t think most of us find homosexual sex tantalizing.

Everyone - liberal, conservative and centrist - agree that violence and suffering are bad. We do debate a bit on how we deal with them, but our differences are much less than the differences on homosexuality. Today, our secular society is trying to make homosexuality an equivalent condition to that of heterosexuality, but you don’t see them trying to normalize violence and poverty.

That is the reason homosexuality is discussed so much - it is that simple. There is no reason to castigate your fellow Catholics for their supposed inattention to violence and poverty.

People now revel in deviant behavior. It makes no difference to them be it beastiality, homosexuality, pederasty.

Hey kids!
One of these things is not like the other, can you tell which one’s not the same?

I have & have had several physical diseases and I wouldn’t wish them on my **worst **enemy.

Would homophobia be on that list by any chance?
Wait a minute, you said physical diseases. My bad!

I was at a talk by a woman who is from Canada and has a special gift in that in the middle of her talk she closes her eyes and it is jesus speaking through her…now before everyone says this is crazy, remember God can do all things…and she was giving messages of love and mercy for all.

The message GIVEN BY JESUS WAS THAT THE MARK OF THE BEAST WAS ON ANYONE WHO LIVED ACCORDING TO THE WORLD…

I would venture to say that practicing homosexual sex would mark you as would greed for money, supporting abortion, any manner of thing that pursued pleasure or vanity over God.

I say this with sincere hopes that people think about what they are choosing.

I do not want to enter a long debate over the issue. I know without a doubt I was created this way and am loved by God. Loving and sharing intimacy with another man is certainly “natural” to me.

I suppose rapists, murderers, thieves and just about any other person with deviant behaviors could say they are created that way by God. How convenient. When do we take responsibility for our own behavior? When it suits us? Any other time, it is God’s fault.

Have you looked into Courage?

I gott agree. I was thinking about this yesterday - the Puritanical American (and I am American, btw) taboos about sex, any kind of sex. We are so hung up on it - why is this? I mean, there are folks who want to “dress” classical nude statues and paintings. Some folks think this is a symptom of repression…

Sex between consenting adults is really nobody’s business but theirs. If we put half of our energy into issues of social injustice that we put into the sex lives of folks we don’t even know, there’s no telling what we could do.

And for those so eager to judge, please realize that these issues are between the individual and God - let them work it out (I’m pretty sure we’re all familiar with the sin/damnation teachings - you’re not telling anyone anything they haven’t heard before, so how about just saying a prayer for us all and letting it go at that?).

Peace

Umm… one tiny little detail regarding the list you composed…NONE INVOLVE A MUTUAL RELATIONSHIP OF LOVE AND RESPECT… Like I said, a slight difference.

Not with that attitude!

You’re correct, not the best comparison but when I read he gives blood while being a practicing homosexual my blood pressure rose slight Then to say his behavior is God’s wishes was too much. I responded without thought. My point remains the same. We all have choices. No one makes us do anything.

I can understand that. Anyone who has an increased chance of having contaminated blood shoud not put society at risk.
Here’s the problem I have though, contrary to popular belief, homosexuals don’t create the AIDS virus. So the issue isn’t that of being a practicing homosexual. It’s being a high risk factor for diseases such as AIDS. And statistically, many male homosexuals are at a higher risk. I’m curious though, why would this be the case if such ones do not cause AIDS?

I don’t know if it is true that homosexuals are more at risk right now because AIDS has been spread into the heterosexual populations…but AIDS is only part of the problem. STDs and STIs are spreading and changing and increasing everyday. I think the problem is that heterosexuals accepted promiscuous sex as being normal ( maybe not the people on this forum but in general) and pushed the use of birth control so they could have infertile sex, and thus openned the door to legitimatize homosexual sex, for in essence heterosexuals were practicing the same kind of sex…sex for pleasure without procreation. Many more people than just the homosexual members of our culture need to repent and repair for what has happened and the consequences that too many young people are becoming victims of everyday.

I agreed with you up to here (the above quote). I think that you started going off onto a tangent of cause and affects that are synthetically combined.
