Seems to me what you have done is created a distinction in behaviors between those of which you approve and those of which you do not, and then claimed they are not the same (Because you don't approve of one of them).
Seems solid.
No they are obviously not tge sane. One is two people mutually into one another. The other is a predator and a victim. No, it’s obviously not the same. Pretty disturbing that you don’t see that.
We saw that with the Roy Moore debacle. Christians clung to Roy Moore because they liked the things he said about the evil, icky gays while ignoring the fact he used to troll shopping malls hitting on underage girls.
Christianity should be referred to as a selective religion - pick and choose the tenets that support bigotry and misgony and conveniently ignore the rest.
This. Though it has always existed (since Sodom) it was never embraced with a few exceptions. The celebration of homosexuality in the western world is a defiance to God.
But with only 2 or 3% of the people in the world who are gay, there really isn't much to celebrate over. God is more likely to be offended over seeing so many straights indulging in adultery. No wonder he wrote, "Thou shalt not commit adultery." Interesting, he didn't see fit to write anything about homosexuality elsewhere in the Ten Commandments.
All these phobias are buzz words created by the left to tell all those who disagree with the immoral behavior thinking that calling them phobic trying to put the sickness on the ones who uphold normal behavior.
Next it will be pedophobia. It is all this political correctness that abnormal behavior is ok and there is suppose to be something wrong with not agreeing with abnormal behavior. We are transgressing back to the times of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Pedophilia would not involve two consenting adults. And it's a crime. If you want to talk about immoral behavior, how about looking at all those hypocritical Christians who commit adultery and pay for their mistresses to have abortions, who lie, cheat and steal. Look at the so-called righteous Congress people who vote to take healthcare away from children and those who need it, or who reduce benefits for the poorest of the poor. Give me a break. Damn hypocrites.

Again, you have conceptualized (in your mind) the disapproval that dictates these labels, which represent a judgement in and of themselves. By doing so you create biased "statuses" (predator/victim)....merely because you don't approve of the behavior of ONE of them.
But here is the Pope himself telling you, who are YOU to disapprove of the behaviors of others when God doesn't even disapprove.
It is disturbing that you just can't think this thing through properly.
But the lack of intellectual rigor of the religious set never fails to disappoint. Its consistent, almost like a natural law.

So what? I thought lefties wouldn't tolerate any more "whataboutism"? At least that's what they keep saying.
But in any case, why would God make people that aren't adults yet capable of sexual activity if he didn't intend for them to engage in it? Isn't that really the argument here? If God's creatures are having sex with each other, whether one is some particular age or not, then that's what God wanted, clearly.
Crimes schmimes. That's human law. Doesn't hold a candle to what God or the Pope thinks.
That's the other argument here. Forget societal consensus or the opinions of individuals...all those people are wrong before God (and the Pope).

So incredibly all out TRUE. For instance, you never see here or elsewhere people fretting over straight people indulging in adultery in this country, even though one of the 10 Commandments said don't do it, and the penalty for doing it in the Old Testament was death. And who cares when someone isn't wearing 100% cotton? That's just for starters.
LOL, you may want to read a few history books on the subject.
