homosexuals not enough garlic As a Catholic and a homosexually-oriented man, I am deeply grateful to the Catholic Church for her position on homosexuality and homosexual acts. Catholicism, almost alone among Christendom’s churches, refuses to patronize homosexuals with a watered-down gospel or brutalize them with a message of irredeemable hostility. The Catholic Church loves me and all the men and women like me who live as homosexuals. She looks at us as the adults we are and says that we, too, can cooperate with the Holy Spirit to sanctify our lives and "approach Christian perfection" (CCC 2359). She confidently calls us to sainthood and to the narrow road that will bring us there. 010312 ... mikey i respect gay men. the pressure most guys go through of having to be "macho" and cant cry and this and that its gotta be strong will power to come out and admit being gay. although i dont totaly agree with it based on logic. to each his/her own. many unhappy people in this world if you can find happiness goddamn more power to ya. theres another way to look at it to that most ignorant straight guys are to foolish to see. see if a guy goes for other guys....hes not goin for girls. so that gives you a better chance to meet a girl. WOW amazing isnt it. so now when i see a homophobic straight guy i laugh. its all how you think about things. 010313 ... twiggie True, the Catholic church is ok with people being gay, as long as you follow their rules. 010313 ... Dafremen I bet gay nuns really know how to party too!!! 010313 ... jem i had a thought the other day does homosexuality exist? does heterosexuality exist? i mean... everyone could be bisexual but the one side is put down by culture and society. sexuality may not define who the individual is, the individual may define what their sexuality is. it may only be a preference, not a situation or conidition. it should not be used as a definition. the supression of homosexuals may only be because of societal fear of differences, or similarities within the differences. well there i go blaming society again. i'll be in my corner if you need my opinion further 010313 ... mikey jem dont be silly. thats what this is all for. you never have to second guess yourself like your last 2 lines. just go with it girl =o) 010313 ... j_blue hm homosexuals rule i keep saying it, but i dont think i can say it enough my best friend says homos are gods special people i think we are more connected, closer to something than most people, for whatever reason and this isnt to imply any causality but our connection makes us greater, somehow, i guess more fabulous... 010314 ... the spicy flamboyant guy in the corner snap... snap... snap... in the immortal words of Little Richard commenting on the spot-on performance of a Buddy Holly impersonator on a daytime talk-show...."mmm-hmmm!, that was good...you gonna make me scream like a white lady" 010314 ... littleidiot last night i went to visit him. he broke up with his boyfriend. i wanted to be able to comfort him, but im not really good when it comes to comforting conversation. so i just held him. and he held me. it was a strange night. 021118 ... A Viking In Peru In the "Earth's Children" book series, by Jean M. Auel, homosexuals are considered to have great healing powers, because they contain within them parts of both the male and the female spirits. 030701 ... You ever been called a faggot repeatedly by your mom, by absolute strangers, by other students who snicker behind your back, by your in-laws and you don't get it because you're straight. You have always been straight. Bi-sexual women or lipstick lesbians seem drawn to you and gay and bi-sexual men are shocked when you rebuff thier not quite coquetish advances. What is the deal you say. Why is this thing still following me around? 050220 ... dandy it just demonstrates what the stereotype is, however it is you naturally talk, walk, move, what you like or how you relate to genders. Must be a real pain when you ask someone out and they go, "omigod, you can't be straight. I told you things I'd only tell because you're not" It's odd. Guys get tagged as homosexual easier than women. Don't marry soon enough? Don't date enough? Too nice and polite and failing in burp-fart-slap-stoic role-rules and are actually fully fleshed out human? Aha, gay. Gays are human, not regular men doncha know. :-P 050221 what's it to you? who go blather from
