Which teachings of the RCC are you referring to? Do you even know what the Catechism says about homosexuals? The Church is far more compassionate toward gays and sensitive toward their plight than Protestant fundamentalists, that's for sure.What makes you think they have to go anywhere? Blacks and women were given equal rights a long time ago, and it hasn't stopped THEM from claiming perpetual, caterwauling victimhood.
The difference in my opinion and why comparing blacks to being gay is wrong.
Blacks can't keep their color to themselves. Its out there for all to see. Not so with the gays, there is nothing that says they have to announce their pride in poking their friends where the Sun doesn't shine. Doing so, in my opinion, is there business but nothing to be proud of.
The difference in my opinion on why your opinion is wrong is because you are obsessing about how others have sex.
Homosexuals were not targeted for arrest or for being fired or for being beaten up or murdered because of their 'pride in having sex'- they were targeted because they were different- and because they were attracted to the 'wrong gender'
Targeting people for abuse, in my opinion, is nothing to be proud about.
And it's in stark contrast with what Jesus taught us to be. It seems this message is being lost, that the Bible says Jesus did not come into the world to condemn the world, but that through Him, the world might be saved (John 3:17). Jesus built bridges and taught his disciples to build bridges......so why to Christians today build walls and think by doing so they are good followers of Christ?
My family and I are building a bridge with two very dear ladies who are tying the knot this month. That bridge will be sturdy and enduring and will hopefully be but one of many as Christian embrace what Jesus really taught.
I'm going to a wedding in August of two dear friends who happen to be women and strongly Catholic
They may say they are "strong" catholics but I don't see how a person disagree with the teachings of the RCC and still consider themselves a strong catholic. Just another religion being watered down.
