    LGBT Catholics Deserve Respect, Not Indifference

    -----------------------------------------------
    Despite Pope Francis calling for a greater understanding of Gay and Lesbian Catholic parishioners, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops shamefully continues their diatribe against them. There have also been numerous firings of same-sex oriented individuals who were associated with the church simply because it was found out that they were Gay or Lesbian.

    People have resorted to leaving the Catholic Church over their dogma and relentless penchant to marginalize those people whom God also created who are different from them just because of who they are and whom they love. The children growing up Catholic who also happen to be Gay or Lesbian are the ones who suffer the most and it is unconscionable to think that a church that is supposed to be loving and Christian that should follow Christ's teachings of loving their neighbors unconditionally could allow their teachings to become of such great concern, that as this story brings out, many children consequently are suffering.

    There is absolutely no sane or rational reason for Gays or even straight people to openly tell everyone what they do sexually or would like to do.

    'That ALWAYS creates Welfare, Child Abuse, illegitimacy, abortions, No Fault Divorce, higher Taxes and more violent crimes.

    because discussing sex is promoting sex, right? if it's talked about all the time, kids will think it's REALLY IMPORTANT, and feel the need to find out what all the fuss is about ... right?

    so we can hold both the christian and the islamic bibles in contempt, given the overweening focus both give to all things sexual. in fact, they both demonstrate such an unseemly obsession with sex that it wouldn't be a stretch to link these awful books to the social ills of societies which embrace them.

    you're welcome :)
