Once again, a Catholic publication projects its own problem onto Judaism by holding up one of the more libertine Jewish movements on the Sabbath (when Jews won't argue online).
How typically Roman...
Or are you just anti-Catholic? Any stick to beat a dog, I guess.
How typically bigoted.
Again, David gathered together all [the] chosen [men] of Israel, thirty thousand.
2Sa 6:2 And David arose, and went with all the people that [were] with him from Baale of Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God, whose name is called by the name of the LORD of hosts that dwelleth [between] the cherubims.
2Sa 6:3 And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that [was] in Gibeah: and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drave the new cart.
2Sa 6:4 And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab which [was] at Gibeah, accompanying the ark of God: and Ahio went before the ark.
2Sa 6:5 And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD on all manner of [instruments made of] fir wood, even on harps, and on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals.
2Sa 6:6 ¶ And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth [his hand] to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook [it].
2Sa 6:7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for [his] error(see verse below); and there he died by the ark of God.
Numbere 4:15 And when Aaron and his sons have made an end of covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, as the camp is to set forward; after that, the sons of Kohath shall come to bear [it]: but they shall not touch [any] holy thing, lest they die. These [things are] the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tabernacle of the congregation.
What?
A Catholic problem?
Ummmm, no.
There is no debate in the Vatican about whether or not to embrace gay sex, bless gay marriage. The answer is no. It's not even on the table being discussed.
Sure, there are sinful Catholics, everyone's a sinner.
But no, there is no Catholic sodomy "issue". It's not an open question. Not even a teeny-tiny-crack-of-light (or doome) mopen question.
There have been a bunch of pedophile priests, and they're being prosecuted, but there is nothing to discuss doctrinally. Sin is sin. It's not open to change.
