I was a little anxious about bringing this topic up because I know that most topics that have something about same-sex attraction or homosexuality turn into a disaster. Plus, I think they just get kind of annoying in general. That being said, I’m sorry for making another SSA topic, and I really hope this one doesn’t turn into that.
I have been wondering about this for quite sometime though. (Also, if I have anything wrong, please correct me.) From what I understand though, for someone who is struggling with SSA, and does not feel attracted to women, they should not marry, or enter into the priesthood, just try to live a celebate, holy, life as a single. I think that someone in this case wouldn’t be allowed to enter into marriage because in a way it would be a lie, and the priesthood would be off limits for clear reasons.
What about those who have prayed for a long time and/or gone through therapy who feel that they have overcome their SSA, and it no longer controls them. Do you think it would be ok for them to marry, or become a priest?
Thanks in advance. Christ be with you all
