"With all "due" respect, this is typical homosexual agenda rhetoric, and the good Catholic folks on this forum know better than to fall for it or tolerate it"

I have no agenda here but to seek the truth, dear friend, you are mistaken.

"Some of your opinions could be copied and pasted from a homosexual apologists' website."

I don't know what this means or what you are implying, but "homosexual apologists", that's a first for me on that phrase. I didn't cut and paste I just reported to the room my experience in life, your rather offensive in your thread, If the Vatican doesn't want homosexual men in the priesthood then I will agree with their position, but the position is very vague right now, to say otherwise is delusional. If this was the policy I imagine gay priests "found out" would have been defrocked, oh that's right they weren't, perhaps there is a greater wisdom in the Vatican on this matter than even your well read brain can comprehend.

As far as your tangent into laws on discrimination of gays in the workplace in the United States, I don't support such laws, I sense a false dichotomy, but (respectfully) you have your position and that's fine, but dissent from the Church, I have not!
All people have their imperfections, yes homosexuality is one such imperfection, I guess the only way to insure a perfect priesthood is to remove all human beings from the position, become protestants and call it a day! P.S., thanks Sinkspur, you won't be forgotten on "the last day"!

I just showed you the Vatican position, it is not vague except to those with an agenda to present it as such, and the delusions on this thread belong to neither myself nor dsc. Thanks for sharing.
