why gay marriage will destroy the churches
My lesbian patients were not usually a problem: women living for years with a female friend never raised eyebrows even in the good old days, since such friendships often filled a need for career women and was not due to sexual orientation (i.e. not lesbians, or sometimes a lesbian with a hetero friend).
But most of my patients were women, and I've seen/treated too many women hurt badly because a gay man tried to pretend he was otherwise, or because a bisexual man fell into the trap that she should "welcome" the fact that now he has a boyfriend too. A lot of gays who "come out" after marriage are actually bisexual who want a male bimbo, since a true gay doesn't have a good sexual life with his wife: On the contrary often the woman ends up sexually frustrated and abused by her husband who take out on her his own sexual frustration on not having an outlet.
Yet today, I found another one minute of hate on my facebook page, about some minister who years ago gave a sermon on Christian marriage and what that meant, and now, even though he is active pushing welfare type programs, he is ridiculed and turned down by Obama and having the left call him a bigot.
Even Chuck Hagel, who once criticized a potential ambassador for going to a gay party where a notoriously anti catholic group was performing, is now being discussed if he was homophobic.
So ridicule Catholic, no problem. Give a sermon about traditional marriage or quote the bible and you are a bigot.
No wonder the Pope is worried.
And what makes it worse is that the friend who accidentally sent the post (she traditionally posts the one minute hate messages from her groups on her facebook page) also added a remark that she wishes that the "fundamentalist christians" would all leave the country.
So the 40 percent of the country who are evangelical or pentecostal are no longer welcome? Not just silenced and ignored, but now we are proposing they be deported?
Ah, but what about we catholics, who see gay marriage as part of a continuum of a philosophy that denies human biology: that sex is not chosen, but an essential part of one's being, that the sexual identity goes beyond genitalia, that God made two sexes as a way to procreate and mixed it up with sexual love and happiness so that the family could be the way to do this.
