If SSA is not something one can control, what is the point if being proud of it? People are proud of accomplishments they achieved not of things they were born with. The whole “gay pride” thing makes no sense to me.
Also, being proud of sinful urges…yeah that makes sense too!
Yay, I condone pre martial sex! YAY!!! I am soooo proud of myself!
Good. Being proud of the person you are and what you have accomplished in life is a good thing.
So, you’re admitting being a practicing homosexual is a sin? I’m not saying I’m better than anyone. But I’ve had my own struggles with sin and I’ve never tried to justify my struggles as being something to be proud of or happy about.
Who do you believe was the greater sinner in this parable? Anyway we stray off topic. I don’t believe being a practicing homosexual is a sin. I believe being unfaithful to one’s partner, whoever that may be is a sin. Homosexuals should at least be given the chance to prove that on a percentage basis they can keep their relationships together as long as heterosexuals. But since we do not permit same sex marriage we cannot give any evidence of that. We do have evidence of a 50% divorce rate, which cannot be blamed on the homosexuals.
I guess your one of those “pro-gay Catholics” I have been hearing so much about.
True- we must blame our sex-obsessed culture. To our culture, love is a mutual wanting to have sex with one another. Anyone who has been married for a long time would tell you that real love takes work.
One little issue.I guess your one of those “pro-gay Catholics” I have been hearing so much about.
How do you justify/explain your position (above) and still call yourself a catholic?
Because I still believe in the eucharist, I still have a devotion to the blessed mother and the saints, I am firmly against abortion, need I go on?Oh lovelyOne little issue.
They should wait until marriage and homosexuals should be given equal opportunity. Hey I would hold homosexuals to the same standard of faithfulness. If they got married and did not stay that way I would require them to go without a second marriage.Do you believe being a practicing single heterosexual is a sin?
Daddums
I agree with everything but the teaching on homosexuality.Oh lovely
But the rest of the Churches teachings can go to hell in a hand-basket becuase they discriminate against homosexuals?
I am sorry bear with me as I am a convert to the Church but I did not know that we could pick and choose what to believe as far as the CCC.
So you dont believe it is a violation of the 6th commandment?
your not on mine
Can you please tell me what the purpose of marriage is as the Church sees it.
