Fundamentalist IGNORANT MORONS

I wasn't born a Catholic. I am [proudly] a convert to the Catholic faith. I know fundamentalists and fundamental theology very well. Though I never considered myself to actually BE a fundamentalist, I did hold with a few fundamentalist ideologies [like only born again believers will be in heaven...baptising babies only got them wet...] you get the idea.

One of the first things I learned about the Catholic faith is that it is NEVER EVER EVER about 'hate'. Everything the Catholic Church teaches comes from PURE LOVE. This pure love comes from God to His Holy Catholic Church and from there is poured out to the world. One of these examples of love is the Catholic teaching of homosexuality. The Church does NOT teach that simply BEING a homosexual will send you to hell for eternal punishment - that is a teaching of protestant fundamentalists. They [protestant fundamentalists] CHEER this teaching...they get their toddlers to sing about it. Apparently they relish the thought of homosexuals burning in Hell, it makes them giddy...they stand up clapping and cheering thinking of all the homosexuals who are going to hell.



These people are SICK and [yes I will go there] THEY are doing the work of the devil, NOT the work Jesus Christ.

I do NOT understand how ANYONE - most especially a bible reading Christian- could CHEER at the thought of someone going to hell. That simply does not register in my mind. I am terrified at the thought of a SINGLE person going to hell for all eternity. I don't want a single soul to be lost. It is my deepest desire that ALL would be saved and one day live in eternity with our Lord. Seeing this video... I was ashamed for them, horrified of them, disgusted by them and inspired to pray FOR them. It's wrong for people to be like that... they need prayers to prevent THEM from going to hell one day for their hatred. Hatred is of the devil, love is of God. These people right now are far from godly people... their preaching hatred is making the devil proud and make the angels in heaven weep.

There is NO sin in simply BEING a homosexual. The sin, as with ALL sin is in the ACT. When people make a decision to DO something they have the opportunity to sin. If a heterosexual person has sex outside of marriage THEY have just sinned. If a homosexual person has sex they have just sinned. If neither of them actually have sex, they are not guilty of fornication/adultery. They must give in to temptation to be guilty of sin. Chaste homosexuals are NOT guilty of any sexual sin simply because they were born gay.

If fundamentalists would actually READ what those bibles they cling to say, they would realise that all accounts of sexual sin in the bible show someone giving in to temptation- actually committing the act of sex.

I found the video by reading the National Catholic Register article: "And we wonder why the secular west thinks Christians are ignorant homophobes?" and I was sickened by these fundamentalists, absolutely sickened by them! They ought to be ASHAMED of themselves for preaching such horrid hatred and for passing it on to their innocent babies to learn. Just disgusting.

To all the fundamentalist protestants out there... OPEN YOUR BIBLES AND YOUR HEARTS to the Word of our Lord.

John 13:34 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

Catholic Catechism: Chastity and homosexuality

2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,141 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered."142 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.

2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided. These persons are called to fulfill God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition.

2359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity. By the virtues of self-mastery that teach them inner freedom, at times by the support of disinterested friendship, by prayer and sacramental grace, they can and should gradually and resolutely approach Christian perfection.

THAT is the Catholic view of homosexuality and homosexual people.
