I am not Catholic but aren't they opposed to being gay?



I would ask a Catholic, my observations are from an outsider only, and it appears on the outside like this pope is quite 'liberal' in his tolerance of things that were previously clearly taught as being against the Word.


so the word of god changes to public opinion? doesn't anyone wonder what god itself thinks of this? is everyone going to hell now?


I didnt say the word of God changes, someone asked about what CATHOLICS are opposed to,,

being that Im not a catholic, I Cant answer for them,,,,

yes, because god says it's not what it wants... so if the pope changes this and accepts it, doesn't that mean gods word in invalid?


I don't get Catholics myself lol but if someone works for the "church", shouldn't they follow the beliefs? Then again...this is Obama too

Exactly look at all the words he has changed the meaning of.

Racism
Transparency
Equal opportunity
Terrorist

The list is endless..
And people still believe him.. Why???



because he walked on water
he created world peace
he healed all the sick
and he ended poverty

,,oh dang,, claiming it didnt make it true,,, lol


and similarly no definitions changed,,



,people support him the same reasons they support any, because they are pleased with his performance regarding those issues they place priority on,,,,




someone touch a nerve here?


dunno, did they?

someone asked a question, and someone answered,,,,,




i don't remember obarry walking on water, but he probably lied about it at some point...



thats my point,,,lol

I dont remember him changing any definitions either

as I Said,, claiming it doesnt make it true,,,

I would have thought he would have invited a high profile person (Caitlin Jenner or something) instead of picking a fired Catholic. Sketchy to me

jenner is controversial because he 'changed' so late in life and he happens to have caused someones death ,,,


and because he is mega rich, the 'adversity' he faces isnt quite representative of that experience for most,, I imagine

Phooey...lol..

Catholicism claims to be the umbrella of all religions.. That's why the word catholicism is equated with universality -- "the universal church" ...Ultimately, it will accept anything to achieve this concept.
The papacy has "assigned" itself as the representative of God...which i think is nonsense.
The papacy have and most likely will always act in the interest of the papacy, not God. The prevailing issue is a political agenda of both Obama and the pope, not a religious one of God. Religion is only used to sway popular opinion and vice versa. It actually has nothing to do with God's law.

Can't answer for U.S. Catholic institutions, but in Canada there had been an employment contract for Catholic teachers which basically said you will live by the churches doctrines, and are a practicing Catholic to be employed by the church.

I'm assuming she had the same type of contract, and likely tried to hide the marriage from church officials. Either that or she may have been an agitator who dares the institution to do something about it. You know, the 'go ahead and fire me, I'll sue your butt off!' employee.

So if she had an employment contract, and the church forbids same sex marriage, you don't get to be part of the club anymore. It has nothing to do with same sex marriage itself, it has to do with breaking church rules. Same as if a teacher was having children out of wedlock, or engaging in affairs with other married staff, or engaging in pre-marital sex. While society as a whole is more accepting of these lifestyle choices, the church is not, and it disciplines staff that break the rules. Period.

It's not religion, not politics, it's business. It depends if it was an 'at will employment' State like here. An employee can work for the State for 15 years be up for promotion and be fired for 'no reason'. At any given time your employment may be terminated at will.
