  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

What would you do?

So, I actually managed to drag myself out of bed and attend daily Mass this morning. As I walked into the church (I was a few minutes early... a rarity for me!) I grabbed a bulletin and took a seat. I was flipping through the bulletin and started looking at the advertising on the back (most bulletins have advertising on the back to defray the printing costs) and saw one ad that caught my eye. It said "Bearz 3020 Club" and that the owner of the club was a parishoner. Well, something about that name struck me as odd and so when I got to work, I did a websearch on the name and sure enough... it's a gay bar.

Now, the question is: Should I email the church in question about this (since this is only the second time I've ever attended a Mass at this parish) or try to bring it up directly to the pastor when I get the chance to talk to him (which could be a long time happening)? Or, should I let them handle this themselves?

Well I am not Catholic NYJ, but I would suspect that the church would like you to tell them...I mean especially in light of the Catholic Church scandal that is going on..I mean since they don't believe in homosexuality then I don't think they should advertize a place that supports this IMMORAL act..that's being hypocritical..in my humble opinion.
