I believe that there is a catholic ministry that reaches out to catholic homosexuals. The name of the group I believe is called COURAGE.

Link. I hope this can help people who have a misunderstanding of the church’s teaching on homosexuality.

Yes, Bones IV, besides the contraceptive mentality there is more to the “homosexuality” issue. There is a good marriage and good family that needs to be there for the children from day one of their life. The teaching and uplifting on the family is a MUST. But so the question goes even further, what entails a good family, a good family life. Besides the sacrifice of the mom and dad there needs to be “unconditional love” there needs to be a mom and dad present and giving that to the children and especially to each other. Even in catholic homes how is that showed and have the kids believe it in their hearts of hearts. That basically is the answer. Are the kids getting the message that they are loved unconditionally, that they are wonderful the way they are made, male or female. Both mom and dad have a role in how this message is passed on. Dad by being dad and mom by letting dad be dad and her standing aside to encourage the son to be a boy, be with dad bonding, that being a boy is a very good thing. And all this starts at a very young age. And how is this passed on, this “I am male” or " I am female."

Here is an excerpt from the book, ‘A Parent’s Guide to Preventing Homosexuality’ by Joseph Nicolosi, Ph.D & Linda Ames Nicolosi

pg. 19, chapter 1, Masculinity is an achievement

“A woman is, but a man must become. Masculinity is risky and elusive. It is achieved by a revolt from a woman, and it is confirmed only by other men.” Camille Paglia, Lesbian Activist

"At the very heart of the homosexual condition is conflict about gender. In the boy, we usually see a gender wound that traces back to childhood. He comes to see himself as different from other boys.

Gender woundedness usualls exists as a silent, secret fear–one that the boy’s parents and loved ones only vaguely suspect. The boy has felt this way for as long as he can remember. That differentness creates a feeling of inferiority and isolates him from other males.

For some little boys, the gender confusion is obvious."

My POV on gays and lesbians? They’re no good for the church.
With that approach noone would be good for the church. We are all sinners and when Paul wrote about the abuses at Corinth he didn’t specify one as being any worse than the others.

Yet he did call for repentance and believed the churhc and Christ would help if the sinner made the start towards Him.

Beware of hypocrisy. Jesus didn’t like that much either.🙂
 
I have also experienced ssa in my past but have never acted on it. I simply preferred never to act out but have shared my struggle with many friends because I felt the cross was easier to carry when others understood. Yet my closest fall with sexual sin was with a girlfriend of all people. My doctor and I have come to the conclusion that I have been through a prolonged adolescence (I am 41).

I disagree with those who see AIDS as some weapon from the heavens against a certain group of people. This was one of the so-called messages from Mary at Bayside, New York. The local bishop there has condemned those apparitions and I am sure the church in general should.

Peace.
