*seethes* Okay, okay, I know I shouldn't read LJ communities where religious nuts interact, especially Catholic religious nuts, but I did and now I feel my stomach jump and turn in an effort not to post a reply to these totally uneducated posts and tell them what I think of them!
Just some corkers in response to that whole business with a gay Episcopal Bishop: [my comments in brackets]
"I find myself spending far more time worrying about things like helping the poor and feeding children, than judging or worrying about homosexuality. That's up to God, not Pilar. I just think of that phrase, "whatever you do to the least of my people, you do to me."" [Erm, my dictionary says Pilar means "Of, relating to, or covered with hair". Did I miss something?]
"Best way to help homosexuals is not to ignore them, but realize they have a problem. Have the guts to admit that its a problem, and try to find ways to help them." [and sometimes even methadone is said to help! Oh wait, that's the wrong problem...]

My favorite guy is the one who's a "formally bi-sexual man" but has "been delivered from the lusts that used to plague [him]". He's also the same guy who writes in his Userinfo that he's "very open minded", but he also says "I'm conservative. I was once liberal. I am not anymore. The Green Party annoys me. PETA really irritates me. One day, I shall lead a meat-eating protest in front of one of their offices. I wouldn't eat animals if God didn't fill them full of meat." So, he did not only get cured of homosexuality, but also liberalism and evil vegetarianism. That sure is one lucky guy....
Oh well, I was gonna quote and rant more, but this is wearing me out. Sherlock Holmes is waiting. Read the rest here.
