re: #369 keloyd

and don’t the old school Catholics mostly bicker with other Catholics? The few I’ve known were much more passionate about not being turned into Episcopalians than what we outsiders get up to. The exception I guess is the whole life-issues thing. The most stridently anti-gay or anti-ethnic-group activists are invariably Protestants. It must be the heirarchy reining in or expelling the nuts.

It may be hard to believe, and some might not want to believe it.
But Catholics do not believe that the mere fact of being homosexual is evil or sinful or anything other awful thing. It simply it what it is and everyone is loved and welcomed.

The Church does believe that those who engage in homosexual sexual activities are acting sinfully. As do heterosexuals who engage in sex outside of marriage.
