There is no such thing as a Catholic who believes abortion is ok and votes for it, they are NOT Catholic. I agree with you that we need more sound off from all our leaders.

Box clever. Read this: If we need to change the definition of something in order to access the right to do that something, we are simultaneously showing we have no right to do that something since, if we have the right, we do not need to change the definition. The very fact that same-sex marriage is only made possible through changing the definition of marriage shows that there is no right to a same-sex marriage. The definition of marriage is not a special definition that allows us to “marry without being able to marry”. The definition works on the same basis as everything else: principles. If we meet the definition, the right is ours. The only people who think the definition is somehow special are those seeking to change the definition. They believe marriage to be a word unique in history: a word that we can change the definition of…without changing the definition.<br /><br />As same-sex parenthood is not physically possible, neither is same-sex marriage. As same-sex marriage is not physically possible, there is only one entity in the world that can ever create it: man-made law. Same-sex marriage is being “legalised”, because that is the only way it can ever exist. The cost of inventing the legal fiction of same-sex marriage is that we will have to legally pretend that parents and children are not physically related. That is what happens when we seek to legally redefine nature: nature legally disappears.

Outside of man's law, because 'the gov'ts giveth and the gov'ts taketh away.' But what is a Christian doing in the military, anyway? Jesus set the identifying mark for his disciples, and it wasn't a uniform. "A new commandment I give unto you: That you love one another, as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another." John 13:34,35, Douay. How did he express that love? Not by going to war with anyone, but by dying himself for the benefit of <b>observant</b> Christians. "my disciples." Yet chaplains are required <i>by their employers</i> to encourage soldiers- Catholic, Jewish, Lutheran, atheists- to ‘go forth and decimate’.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1887258513611422728.post-12577736837987638602013-01-28T11:32:24.278-07:002013-01-28T11:32:24.278-07:00Lolalola,

The sexual act is perfect only within the confines of marriage. And it is perfect when it is open to life, our union (THOSE WHO ARE TRUE CHRISTIANS)should mirror the HOLY TRINITY. For the perfect love between the FATHER and the SON manifested itself into another PERSON - the HOLY SPIRIT. Folks this is THEOLOGY, this is NATURAL LAW. Contraception is a sin because it blocks the flow of the perfect union between a man and a woman AND when the contraception fail most people move to PLAN B-- ABORTION.<br /><br />OPEN UP YOUR EYES PEOPLE, see the snow ball that became the avalanche of DESTRUCTION.

This legislation redefines parents and makes them unrelated to their own off spring 'All marriages exist, in principle, to bind procreation to parenting because all marriages meet the principle of procreation. Individual fertility and age and use of contraception do not break this principle, as long as they occur within the one relationship that meets that principle. The purpose of marriage remains, even if it never fulfils its purpose. Marriage is defined according to what it does (bind procreation to parenthood) rather than what it is (a sexual relationship). A sexual relationship does not have to be permanent or exclusive. A sexual relationship does not describe marriage. Travel describes a car. Parenthood describes a marriage<br /><br />Proponents want there to be no link between marriage and procreation (on the grounds that the infertile etc can marry), while simultaneously knowing that a right to marry will be accompanied by a right to access a child, and while asserting that marriage is necessary to protect children they are already raising. Thus their claim for “Equal marriage” is at once an acknowledgement of, and a denial of, the link between marriage and childrenLolalolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11090306476952635710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1887258513611422728.post-55363356787853261182013-01-28T06:59:38.782-07:002013-01-28T06:59:38.782-07:00While I do care about your liberties, I fear that ...While I do care about your liberties, I fear that as Catholics we are failing to grasp the legal implications here. This is not about taking away your freedom to religious speech etc. it is fully about redefining what a parent is. Parents will no longer be legally related to their own children if this law is passed. Read this and start boxing clever. nobody in the mainstream cares about religious rights.

How long do you think the Services will tolerate 'dissent' by Catholic priests, for that is exactly what it will be seen as by the brass, and ashamedly by too many fellow chaplains. Too many times the Church has acted as if, "That can't really happen", only to see it happen and become a stepping stone for more to come. Perhaps we should begin singing, 'Onward Christian Soldiers' in every military chapel. This, of course, until we are told we are too, "militaristic".
