Happens all the time. It's a very common story in the prison systems.

So they believe that God doesn't love the homosexual. But everybody has been a sinner. Just who does God love? In his self righteousness, President Trump believes he doesn't need to ask God for forgiveness. Does God love him?

Wow, you have warm feelings for people that say things with which you agree. Want a cookie or something?

Now all he needs to do is see to it that all the pedophile priests find new homes in the nearest penitentiary. So weird that some Christians get so bent out of shape about man on man hot love (or woman for that matter) but turn a blind eye to the desecration of children.
Why would he lock up God's creatures that are just made that way? Surely they too are created by the exact same god as the non-pedophiles are. Why the hate for god's creatures?

I can't imagine anyone who has even a passing familiarity with the Bible would care for the Pope. He's as much admitted its all horsecrap.

Which non-religious people have always known. But I can see how it could be a real blow for a believer.

You do realize that pados are a whole different level right?
Gays are just two peope mutually attracted to one another despite being the same sex.

Pedophilia is someone preying lna defenceless kid. Our trying to bring a correlation where there is none.
If two men or two women wanna be together, then thats their mutual agreedment with one another.

But someone such as a pedophile are preying on a victim that is waay too young and defenseless. They are forced to perform sexual acts against their will and their innocence os destroyed.

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.

How could you (or anyone) possibly know this?

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.

Good point. Basically what you are saying is that one very large reason why there is contention between the sexes is that women are too fat. Men can't really change their sexual preferences . gays included.


Its actually hilarious . The religious right wanted to put gays in reeducation camps because the gay sex drive was socially constructed due to some warped experiences that could be deprogrammed....according to them. Now the left wants heterosexual men in fat acceptance reeducation camps because heterosexual men have malleable sex drives such that they can be trained to desire dysfunctional, food substance abusing gluttons. so gay men are born that way . but heterosexual men just choose what they like.

I am not sure whose ox is really gored here ? Looks to me more like horseshoe theory is the winner here in that the old authoritarian right and the regressive left are two peas on a pod.

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.

You are confusing existence and acceptance.


This is really a new low for the Catholic Church.
