Activists Urge Homosexuals to Wear 'Rainbow Sash' at Sunday Mass

First I laughed at the many possible sashes.

Then I thought seriously about . It is another to be openly unrepentent and to insist that the church happily support your sinning.

What makes the Rainbow sashers so insidious is that they are not only unrepentant, they are also unwilling to consider that their behavior is sinful. Instead, they are intent on redefining their conduct as the new normal.

Bump!

These pathetic demonstrations like sashes and hunger strikes and other Gandhi-isms only work with civilized people, or at least are respected. Try this BS with the muslims in Saudi Arabia or elsewhere and see what happens.

These activists do not believe in freedom of religion and tolerance. Like most liberals, they want to impose their religious and moral views on others.

Chop! Chop! Off with zee head!

The group, Rainbow Sash, explained on its website that they "stand opposed to homophobia at the Eucharistic table" and "make no apologies for God's gift of our sexuality."

GOD'S GIFT?
Try reading GOD'S WORD.
He calls homosexuality and abomination which is worthy of the death penalty in the OT.

It amazes me how self centered these people are. As if God's Word is supposed to conform to their personal preferences, however warped they are.

I am so tired of this kind of nonsense.

So am I but we have to remain vigilant. Homosexuals won't give up until they are finally ostracized to an island in the south Pacific (with no churches).

That is a brilliant idea, now the priests will know who to deny communion to.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

They poofters want to stand out?

You would think the stiletto heels and the lisp would give them away....

Preferably one that's only barely above sea level that's directly in the path of a Force 5 hurricane.

If you don't like the teachings of the church, take it up with the Lord, and PRAY PRAY PRAY that you are right, because the Lord will spit you out if you are wrong. They don't think they are right. This is an oppritunity to shove their agenda down our throats. It has nothing to do with Christianity.

christ. anyone else undergoing faggot fatigue?
Sick of hearing about em. be nice if they'd just politely slink off and die quietly from any of the numerous disease they inflict on themselves with their lifestyle.
bah.

>>At such moments, it's small comfort to understand that homosare biologically self-negating...

The queer couple who used to live 3 doors down had two girls via a lesbian couple that lived a couple miles away, and had some weird shared custody arrangement. I wish I were kidding about this.

They moved out, and a nice normal couple with 3-4 kids moved in. Whew.

I wish I'd read this BEFORE I had a mouthful of coffee!

Sorry. If I knew you were drinking coffee I would have add 'Barf Alert' to the post :)

New York did not ban them, Donohue noted. But this year Archbishop Flynn has told Rainbow Sash that they will be banned, said Donohue. "He explicitly said that 'the Vatican has communicated to me that it does indeed consider the wearing of the Rainbow Sash during reception of Communion to be unacceptable, a directive I believe all Bishops will adhere to,'" added Donohue.

The Vatican had to "tell him" the Rainbow Sash protest was conduct unbecoming a Christian? Hoo boy.

These people KNOW they don't have to be Catholics, but just want to make trouble.

They just might be heterophobes.
