Actually I’m advocating that you don’t determine what is moral, it’s a touch different.
 
As I have explained in previous posts, this was taken out of context. I never said that demons possessed people and caused them to sin. You said I said that.
 
I do not believe all homosexual people believe deep down they are sinning. Its possible to commit sin and not know or believe it is a sin. There are murderers who kill people who do not believe its wrong. It still is.

Please quote where I said you were possessed? I don’t recall saying that.

Ok but God determines what is moral, what is right and wrong. He has stated that marriage is between a man and a woman many times, and that Homosexual acts are sinful. The Church is simply reiterating God’s morals, which other denominations decided not to follow.

The Church is also guided by the Holy Spirit, I’d take its opinion over any other denomination. We cannot change the morals God creates, those are divine laws.

Cool. You’re entitled to your opinion and interpretation. I don’t have to agree with it 🙂

Recently I have seen otherwise devote Catholics start to argue that gay marriage is in fact not sinful because those engaged in it, do not have the knowledge or aren’t in a place to truly understand, and so they aren’t culpable and therefore the act of getting married to someone of another sex, isn’t sinful. It was my limited understanding that while knowledge could remove or lesson culpability, that it didn’t change the fact that the act itself (and this could be anything it doesn’t have to be gay marriage) is a sin. Am I just misunderstanding or is the act of gay marriage a sin?

Thank you!

Re: Gay marriage and canon law
 
I am not knowledgeable enough to say whether it is sinful or not, but marriage I believe is meant to be between a man and a woman. It’s not marriage, it should be called something else 🙂 All I really know is that the act of sodomy is sinful. If they are both celibate for the duration of their marriage it might be okay…but like I say the relationship should not be called a marriage.
 
I think it’s regarded as a sin in flyover country,i think the east coast and west coast are more liberal.
 
Liberal Catholics aren’t really Catholics then if they think it isn’t a sin.
 
Basically fake Catholics. A Catholic believes what the church teaches, a fake Catholic does not.
 
It misrepresents the Church and Her teachings. It wasn’t really an argument and more of a truth. ❤️

Mmhm. If anyone who disagrees with the Church on any single bit of doctrine isn’t Catholic I suspect the Church is far, far smaller than anyone thinks it is.
 
Well if you don’t follow Catholic teaching then you aren’t really Catholic.
Most of it isn’t that hard for people to accept anyways.

Or in other words, those who pick and choose which teachings (from God and his Church) they like and reject the teachings (from God and his Church) they dont like, are not following God and his Church but are rather following themselves.
