Hold on there…the Church does not teach that God *made *a person homosexual. God did not make a person homosexual any more than he made them fat or a drug addict. Studies have suggested that homosexuality is caused- at least in part- by environimental factors. Those have nothing to do with how God created them.
It does plenty of harm. The importance of the role of a mother- and the fact that a woman is needed to fulfill that role- cannot be underestimated. The same goes for fathers.
Profaning a sacrament is not a matter of opinion. If you try to confect it without the proper matter, form, and intent, you invalidate it- and profane a holy thing.
Sometimes people who cheat “love each other very much” as well.
Yes- totally. Homosexuals should surround themselves with people (of both sexes), who they can develop close, chaste friendships with. Friendship can be a very powerful thing, and its value is highly underrated in today’s society. Our world is in need of people- men and women- to be good examples of close, chaste friendship.
When you are faced with a large problem, do you try to solve all the little details, or do you go for the root of the problem? It makes more sense to me to go to the root of the problem, and try to fix that. As we get closer to fixing the problem at the root, the other problems that it causes will (perhaps very slowly) be solved. Many people point to the erosion of the family as the source for many of the world’s problems. Domestic abuse, abortion, euthanasia, physician-assisted suicide, homelessness, hunger, financial hardship- all these things, if you think about it, would be solved if families were strong. Strong families means everyone knows their vocation within the family, and everyone carries their weight to the best of their ability (and, out of love for their family, helps those who cannot help themselves). The family is the most important social entity- it is the foundation of society- when that’s falling apart, it only makes sense for everything else to.
Yes. All love comes from God- it cannot come from anywhere else. Homosexual actions are sinful- they do not come from God. They cannot be truly loving. I think many of those who commit them have good intentions when they do, but they are misguided.
