    Christian schools have 'right' to exclude those who undermine religious values,...

    You are asking why would gays want to be Catholic? Perhaps because they believe in God and believe that the Catholic Church is the true Church. And they are struggling with their sexuality and trying to overcome it. Or they know they are sinners and try to do better but fail, as we all do. I...

    I Guess I'm Being Difficult

    Hi guys. CeeBee again. Gotta come for my every-few-months thread I guess... I am now in my second year of college at a medium-sized public but mostly conservative university in the south. I am a guy who is attracted to other guys, only. Don't like girls. (Yeah, I used to think I did, but deep...

    What happened to all the regulars?

    It's pretty sad to read the lists you guys posted of people who don't come around much anymore... lots of familiar names.

    [2009-06-15] Change Is Possible for Gays, Says Psychologist

    Back when I used to frequent CF more often, when I was first aware of my homosexual orientation, I was told that the Church believes that change isn't possible and that homosexuals should remain celibate in life. This was the overwhelming advice/information given in a multi-page thread. It...

    Advice?

    So I'm 18 now. Still unbaptized in any church, attend Baptist church with my family occasionally. My heart, well... deep down I still feel Catholic, though. I just don't know what to do. I disagree with the Church on several large issues... birth control, homosexuality, masturbation. I know...

    Gay Marriage - Prop 8 Protests

    Yes, what happened to this woman was horrible, but is this? Doesn't matter? Some of these are old. One's very young, also, 3 years old. Dad thought he was gay, I believe. But they are damned hopeless pathetic worthless sinners. The woman was perfect, amirite? But I thought only Christ was...

    I'm Not Sure What To Say

    The :P was referring to the fact that I had put alot of "idk"s in that paragraph, referring to the fact that I'm kinda unsure of how to respond, as I'm conflicted, so to speak (on Rhamiel's argument on divorce). Well nearly all divorces would not be considered ok with the Church.

    I'm Not Sure What To Say

    I love how try though I may to specify that I was not indeed chiding ("not sarcastic/argumentative", why else would I say that?) you got that impression. Anyways, I think you missed my point, mon ami. I understand how the Church views marriage/divorce, but the thing with banning gay marriage...

    I've been invited to a wedding

    I guess you could guess how I'd respond if you've followed me lately, but I don't understand how you going would give your stamp of approval? You can even explain to her politely and nicely how you disapprove with her lifestyle, etc., and that your attendance will not be in support, but that you...

    Bravo! Reverend Newman

    What about those who voted for Barack Obama but are pro-life? Such as myself? I don't get it. The Democrats are as well all know much more for helping the poor, did not Our Lord speak on helping the poor many, many times? Also the Republicans spewed much hate this season, and always do. Not...

    I'm Not Sure What To Say

    Well it makes a difference because many Christians, particularly Protestants, believe that it is due to nurture and that nurturing the opposite way, so to speak, can "fix" us, even adults, which hah I forget I am now. Ok, guess I'll work backwards with my responses: To everyone praying for...

    Gay Marriage - Prop 8 Protests

    I apologize, it seems I misread your post? For a native speaker I'm told quite often that I utterly suck at context/reading between lines/all that stuff, heh, sorry. I'm just used to trusting people on this issue then getting shocked in a nasty way, sorry if I've turned into a bit of umm I can't...

    Gay Marriage - Prop 8 Protests

    Umm, homosexuals are hardly violating the rights of others in even remotely close to the same capacity as our rights are being violated. To try to draw connections is hilarious. I won't deny protests/etc. can sometimes get out of hand, but do you know how many are occurring and how many people...

    I'm Not Sure What To Say

    I came here to vent, to get support, to ask for prayer. Ya see, my best friend, who is gay, was passing out fliers about gay rights. No, not gay marriage, but anti-discrimination laws in the workplace, actually, I believe. Anyways, he was doing this in New Orleans with a group. They got...

    Is anti-Catholicism dead?

    It is certainly alive and "well".=\
