Sexuality.

Today I will be talking about a "hot topic". Sexuality.



My views on human sexuality match up to what the Catholic Catechism has to say. But, before I get condemned for my beliefs, let me just say that





The Church does recognize homosexuality as disordered, this doesn't really mean that the Church is heartless to those who suffer from the disorder. The Catechism of the Catholic Church states: "Men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies . . . must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided."3





Personally, I'm not a homophobic. I've had two bisexual friends. I've never been one for discrimination of ANY kind. Race, religion, sexuality, whatever it is.



We have to remember that everyone has been created in the image and likeness of God and deserves to be treated as such. No matter what.
As the famous saying goes.......hate the sin, love the sinner.





"MALE AND FEMALE HE CREATED THEM . . "




"God created man in his own image . . .


male and female he created them" He blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and multiply"





So, here we have proof that God made man and female. Adam and Eve.


What was their purpose as man and female? To procreate. To "be fruitful and multiply"






"They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved."4






2332 Sexuality affects all aspects of the human person in the unity of his body and soul. It especially concerns affectivity, the capacity to love and to procreate, and in a more general way the aptitude for forming bonds of communion with others.





A woman and a woman can't bond during sex the way a man and a woman can.
A man and a man can't bond during sex the way a man and a woman can.


It doesn't work! I suppose you can try to make it work, but it's distorted!


It's not how we were designed by God, which is why it's going against the natural law.


Sex is supposed to be a beautiful thing shared between a husband and wife.


It's a way of a couple bonding, communicating, procreating. There is unity. You can actually give all of yourself to your spouse. Sex is supposed to be an act of giving: "I give all of myself to you".


But when you aren't married, or able to procreate, what left is there to give?


It's everything God had planned it to be.




"I WAS BORN THIS WAY . "





Some claim to be born with this, but I digress.





Nobody chooses to become an alcoholic. But, one can make alcohol a habit.


Someone can acquire alcoholic desires by always being drunk without consciously choosing them.





So, someone may acquire homosexual desires (by engaging in homosexual fantasies or behavior) without consciously choosing them.





And think about it. Why do we find certain things stimulating? Certain scents...looks...the way someone dresses...whatever it is. It only makes sense if homosexuals have their own thoughts that they find are "stimulating".

As Catholics we need to pray for these people with distorted thinking.
