Every so often, I get in a situation where I just don't know what to say.

Given your warning, I didn't read it. The New York Blade? Is this some homosexual newspaper?

As gay protesters descended upon the Conference of Catholic Bishops, at least two bishops greeted demonstrators.

Probably not the first time they've made their acquaintance.

Homosexual Agenda Ping. Very offensive article.

There is nothing worse than the darkness of evil garbed as religion. Or those who embrace offensiveness to God dressed as holy men.

Better they should give up the pretense and just become regular (deleteds). I wish that those in the Catholic Church who are honest and true would kick this kind of crap out.

Let me and DirtyHarryY2K know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

Note to author and editor:

towing=toeing. I couldn't continue reading after seeing that. If they aren't smart enough to use the proper word, then I don't need to hear what they have to say, either.

Sorry, we don't make "The Rules"; G-d does.

I'm a divorced Catholic woman, who would love to go to Holy Communion and Penance. But I cannot until an annullment of my first marriage is approved. (which I am in the process of)

Why don't I go to Communion anyway? Because it's against the rules. I could go to another church and partake in their communion service, but I am a Catholic, and always will be.(and believing it be the the true Church Christ founded) I cannot blame the Church for my mistake.

My point is, if you cannot accept the rules, go somewhere else, or up your standards. Don't expect the Church to lower her standards to accommodate. It isn't going to happen, and it shouldn't.

Sigh. It's not a classic pedophile crisis. Look at the numbers it's a homosexual problem. A problem to the point they had to create an entirely new class of deviant.

So now there is an officially 'gay Catholic' church in Baltimore? Do the words "go and sin no more mean anything". That goes for the priests too. This ain't a fraternity. The picking and choosing of which scripture to follow isn't anything new nor is it different than what alot of other churches are teaching these days.


grrrr

...there were signs that not all bishops are towing the Vatican line...

What does the church do with leaders who do not tow the line?

Are they fired?

Sodomy is one of the sins that cries out to heaven for vengeance.

One Pope even said, "Homosexuality is a sin so vile that even the angels of hell are repulsed by it."

"The church has seen what happens when its leaders keep quiet and choose secrecy over honesty. If they have learned anything from the sex abuse scandal, it should be the need for more openness and honesty in church life."

I absolutely agree with this point. It's time to be honest - admit that the priesthood is infested with faggots - and then openly kick them out on their arse!

“White flight” has depleted this church of its congregants and it seems the only worshippers left are a few hardy old-timers along with pioneering gay men and lesbians who are buying up and restoring properties in the old neighborhood.

It wasn't "White Flight" that depleted this church ... it was Fr. Fag and his coven of limp-wristed sychophants. Normal Catholics, even those who actually like the Novus Ordo, don't like priests who are more interested in buggery than ministry.

Re: "... officials at this church, which I won’t name so as to spare its priests certain ex-communication,..."

OH PLEAAAASSSSE Mary Elizabeth how just do you think you are kidding? The Cardinal is just around the corner and you think he doesn't know? What do you wanna bet that girly priest was hand picked for the post, and the burly one looks just splendid in leather?

I need a drink.
