I find great distress when one claims to be a faithful Catholic, yet finds every avenue possible to nuance and spin most every teaching of the hierarchy. Your contempt for Rome is well known.

OK, johnny. I guess this discussion is over.

BTW, this is some of the hierarchy discussin a tough issue. Is that OK in your world, or are they not allowed to even do that?

I think "discussions" are fine as long as they do not contradict Church teaching. There are others here much more schooled than I am about moral theology. I bow to them.

What I see as damnable is the constant pushing of the moral envelope by some who have a liberal, heterodox agenda. It is always the same drum beat. Rome is out of touch. Good people are suffering because big bad Rome will not sell out to the secular relativists. If they would just give a little on this one issue...
