Are they standing up for human rights and the sanctity of every life and the dignity of every person? The Church really needs to speak out about this. I do wish to note, however, that when Benedict XVI was a young man he was only a member of the Hitler Youth because this was obligatory, he did not take part in any of the activities of the Hitler Youth from what I understand. He was just unfortunate to live in a horrific society.Mareczkuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13122584421854834046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2850096231666604.post-84992787949173975282009-12-04T16:21:25.342-08:002009-12-04T16:21:25.342-08:00The more I read in various blogs and links the mor...The more I read in various blogs and links the more overwhelmed I become. What is happening? There is more than enough hate to go around, for sure. In Google-ing a news story about the Sisters of Mercy abuse settlement in Ireland I landed on a Canadian news service to read the article; at the end, readers comments displayed such hatred and contempt for the Catholic Church, Catholic clergy, and Catholic nuns, that I was taken aback. And, godknows, I have my issues with the Church. In Uganda, "gug" is pleading for help from the Catholic Church whose stance on homosexuality is vastly more humane than the proposed Ugandan law. How do we sort all this out?Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04058312079036935995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2850096231666604.post-31534012274120826192009-12-04T15:17:50.561-08:002009-12-04T15:17:50.561-08:00They are hurting and fearing in Uganda...bigtime a...They are hurting and fearing in Uganda...bigtime and the Roman Catholic Church remains silent (and the Bishop Orombi/Anglican Church of Uganda is now silent after promoting the murderous ¨anti-Homosexuality Bill 2009¨ legislation currently before the Parliament of Uganda...gug, or better known for his blog ¨Gay Uganda¨ is reaching out to Roman Catholics to speak out against the murder of LGBT Christians...please take a minute to follow this link to his appeal for Roman Catholics to speak up for mercy.<br /><br />http://gayuganda.blogspot.com/2009/12/catholics-what-you-can-do.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+Gayuganda+(GayUganda)Leonardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16667415590825321701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2850096231666604.post-23038138987499434242009-12-04T14:47:55.114-08:002009-12-04T14:47:55.114-08:00The obscenity of this situation is beyond words.The obscenity of this situation is beyond words.Michael Doddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00942287172727040371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2850096231666604.post-19470328190457327492009-12-04T14:12:10.943-08:002009-12-04T14:12:10.943-08:00There's no doubt the Church has caused an imme...There's no doubt the Church has caused an immense amount of psychological, emotional, and spiritual pain to LGBT people. Now you're making the argument that the Church has a hand in causing physical pain & death to LGBT people. Yet, we shouldn't expose the flaming hypocrisy that the Church has a large percentage (maybe even a majority) of gay clergy? Sorry Father Geoff, I find that position to, put it mildly, inconsistent.<br /><br />I greatly appreciate what you have done & sacrificed. Your posts on this blog have given me much comfort. <br /><br />However, the Church has waged WAR on us. The old ways of withholding donations, standing outside of diocesan headquarters, etc., don't work.Joenoreply@blogger.com
