Professor Hale <\/a> links to a story where a lesbian woman makes a fuss over being refused communion.<\/p>\n

You have to read the whole story to understand what is going on. Jewelled Cranberry has an excellent post on it here<\/a>. I suggest you read the whole thing. <\/p>\n

Money quote, from the “offended” party:<\/p>\n

“You brought your politics, not your God into that Church yesterday, and you will pay dearly on the day of judgment for judging me,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she wrote in a letter to Guarnizo. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I will pray for your soul, but first I will do everything in my power to see that you are removed from parish life so that you will not be permitted to harm any more families.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Harming families? By following the laws of the Church? How can this be? <\/p>\n

It is “harming Families” because it isn’t “Tolerant”. <\/em><\/p>\n

Sorry. The only person who brought their politics into the church was the lesbian woman, and this is the kind of axe you will see them swinging over and over again as the government forces the Church to act according to it’s PC wishes, and not the rules set down by the Creator. <\/p>\n

Still think that Gays ought to be free to marry? Really, they’re the kindest, gentlest people you know, right? <\/p>\n

So long as you’re not a devout priest trying to stay firm to the Calling. Then watch out. <\/p>\n

Look, I think people should just be as happy as they can get themselves. If they can only be happy at the expense of other’s faith, that’s a sort of a dealbreaker. You can think that Gays seeking the recognition of marriage is solely and only about their love for one another. <\/p>\n

But you’re wrong. <\/p>\n

This is but one example. There are others, and this situation will recur and recur until the Church, beaten and bruised, will slink off to a corner and all but die, it’s only adherents being those too stubborn to be pushed around by an intrusive PC government. <\/p>\n

God forbid, on the other hand, that you raise a question about the new State Sponsored religion of Ecological awareness and Planet Saving Nonsense, then you’re a criminal. That is a church to which I will never belong, preferring my soul to my freedom, thankyouverymuch. Don’t expect me to give up either without a hard won fight. <\/p>\n

To the church leaders who rolled belly up and submitted to this woman: Shame on you. I would be embarrassed to call myself a Catholic, but for the fact that you now cannot. Oh, you can pretend, but you’re in the soup now. I hope you like it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
