Letter: The no-spin church zone

Talk about having your cake and eating it, too! The homosexual activists have come as close to this as possible with their response to the homosexual scandals within our Catholic Church. The facts show that this is overwhelmingly an assault of male on young male — young, post-pubescent individuals such as altar boys. The activist homosexual “prizes” the young. This is clearly evidenced in the efforts of NAMBLA (North American Man-Boy Love Association) to lower the age of sexual consent to 12 years old.

When we read about these scandalous events within the church we must recognize them for what they are, which is overwhelmingly homosexual attacks upon young males by sinful priests. We must remember not to paint all priests with this stripe of guilt.

Extensive studies on these molestations show 2 percent to 3 percent of priests are guilty. The vast majority are good and noble shepherds of the flock they serve.

Let’s get the facts on the table. Homosexual activists are spinning this story from primarily a homosexual problem to a child molestation/pedophilia problem — while at the same time attacking and silencing the very church which for 2,000 years has been consistent on Christ’s teachings on the evil of this lifestyle. Catholic theology clearly teaches that the homosexual lifestyle is sinful and disordered.

Once the homosexual priests who entered our church through a flawed seminary process are no longer admitted, the problem will stop. No matter how you spin it, it is as “simple” as that.
