Homosexuals and what the Bible says

Image
Unquestionably homosexuality has become a major issue in the world today. The openness and political clout of the homosexual movement has dramatically increased in recent years. In former times it was not talked about openly; if it was, the movement and people were often derided.  Today homosexuals as a group have considerable leverage, and any slight against them is met with an immediate and forceful response. Remember some of the words that were used to describe homosexuals in days past? For example, although the dictionary still gives “homosexual” as a meaning of the word queer, one would dare not use that word today in public. Gay is the “in” word now. “Gay rights” are asserted in many arenas, and “gay pride” parades occur in many cities annually.

Defenders of the movement tell us that homosexuality should no longer be considered a deviant life...

Treatise against homosexuality

The   Book of Gomorrah,   St. Peter Damian ’s classic treatise against a plague of homosexuality in the Catholic priesthood during the eleventh century, has now been published with a new translation by LifeSiteNews reporter Matthew Cullinan Hoffman and a foreword by Cardinal Juan Sandoval Íñiguez . The Book of Gomorrah and St. Peter Damian’s Struggle Against Ecclesiastical Corruption   includes a complete translation of Damian’s   Book of Gomorrah,   as well as an extensive account of the saint’s battle against the terrible corruption in the Church of his day.  Damian fearlessly rebuked popes and bishops in his quest to restore the integrity of the Catholic priesthood and the morals of the faithful.  He also successfully confronted the German Emperor Henry IV to protect the sacrament of marriage and prevent him from receiving an easy annulment. In the   Book of Gomorrah,   Damian warns Pope St. Leo IX that “the cancer of sodom...

Just ask Michael Sam, a top college football player who wasn't quite good enough to make the cut in this year's NFL season,  but was good, or famous, or famously gay, or  something  enough, to be  GQ's Man of the Year : The athlete won the award despite having not yet played an on-season game in the NFL. He was cut from the Rams squad in August, but was later picked for a Dallas Cowboys practice team, only to be dropped again in October.  When asked by  TMZ  why he thought he was not on the roster of an NFL team, Sam said; 'I t...

Lesbian sin (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Robin Teresa Beck, 59, lived through 12 lesbian relationships over the course of 35 years before her dramatic conversion to the Catholic faith and healing from homosexuality, just five years ago. Read LifeSiteNews’ coverage of Robin’s dramatic story  here . Read the full interview here . Beck spoke with LifeSiteNews over the phone from her home in Michigan in the Detroit area about everything from the impossibility of creating a healthy gay relationship, to why lesbian relationships can never fulfill the emotional needs of women, to how she believes God looks on people struggling with homosexuality, to how the Church should approach homosexuals. Her experience with same-sex attraction and the gay lifestyle gives her insight into what is at the heart of homosexuality and why it is fundamentally incompatible with the human person and with Christianity . “Our Creator said that a man leaves his mother and father and comes togethe...
