And if they insist that disrespecting individuals and forcing them to respond to names or identities not of their choosing is the "Christian" path …
Truth is the Christian path, and Truth is never disrespectful.

“The younger priests are holy, true and love being a priest.”

Only problem is the majority of them know little or nothing about the Tridentine Mass, as I assume you would accept nothing less than a valid liturgy.

Oh, I was just under the impression we were kind of disliked (have seen a few comments to the effect.) And I’m mostly going by some comments I’ve encountered from other threads that were along the lines of, “Leave that church!” or “Stop being a mary worshipper...”

Was meaning no offense.

Would you be up for fielding any questions I have (I have a very weird background, and my husband does what he can when I have questions.)

I’m not going to lie, I’m in a dark space right now.

This is the National anti-Catholic Distorter. Nothing even close to Catholic is printed in its pages.

Devout Catholics need to make sure and use the correct gender pronoun before molesting children...

MG: I was kidding about anyone coming to me for theological guidance and would not be qualified to act as a Catholic guide for you. But I will pray for you big-time. About the only thing I can say in my favor is that my intuition on religious / moral matters is nearly always correct and in concordance with traditional Catholic teaching.

It doesn’t have to be Catholic to be factual.

Daniel Horan is a Catholic priest is good standing.

And here is why the Catholic religion is in such a funk: Franciscan Fr. Daniel P. Horan is the director of the Center for Spirituality and professor of philosophy, religious studies and theology at Saint Mary's College in Notre Dame, Indiana.

Degenerate minds are teaching

I don’t deploy pronouns unless I’m talking ABOUT someone. I won’t be talking about someone confused about pronouns.

"I spent four hours today on the campus of the University of Maine in Orono, Maine, with a group of evangelical men and women, giving away pocket sized New Testaments with Psalms and Proverbs. The good news: we gave away 1,600 copies of God’s Word to students. "

Wonderful! Glory to God.And which relates to the incredible question:

So why is there so much resistance and pushback among some in the church — including in Catholic schools — to using the gender pronouns or gender-affirming names preferred by individuals, especially those who are members of the LGBTQ community?"

Why? Because God made man and women distinctively different yet uniquely compatible and complementary, and only joined them together in marriage - as the Lord Jesus Himself specified (Mt. 19:4–6) - and Scripture only condemns homosexual relations wherever they are manifestly dealt with.

And Adam, who named all the animals,

called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living. (Genesis 3:20)

Eve. Part of Speech: noun proper feminine

Yet there is still room at the cross for all who will come to God in repentance and faith, and trust in the Divine Son of God sent by the Father, the risen Lord Jesus, to save them on His account, by His sinless shed blood, and thus be baptized and live for Him. Acts 10:36-47

Women jailed with biological male face extra jail time unless they refer to him as a woman

A woman raped by a man claiming to be a woman could be kept incarcerated longer if she refuses to call him a her.

Daniel Horan is a Catholic priest is good standing.

So were a lot of the light-in-the-loafers priests that nearly drove me out of the Church in college. Sadly, we live in an age where being a priest doesn't guarantee that the man is a believing Catholic.

While Jorge Bergoglio is a Catholic in good standing, the Church is in grave distress.

Yep, I prefer to be called “Your Majesty.” Funny, no one does.

“While Jorge Bergoglio is a Catholic in good standing, the Church is in grave distress.”

So, you don’t accept the analysis of scholars who hold that he is not a Catholic in good standing?
