[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you, as well as many people on this forum, are very quick to make religion the culprit in every bad situation. Obviously, Vance Boelter wasn’t living what his faith taught. [/quote]

Yes he was living what his religion taught. It wasn't what Jesus taught but so many churches have bastardized religion to hate certain people... black people, gay people, transgender people, women who seek healthcare. So yes this is what religion teaches ... you just don't want to admit it or hold your specific religion responsible for their bastardization of Jesus's teachings. [/quote]

Ahhh yes, the classic “bastardization of Jesus’s teachings” argument. This is the regular response from people who have spent little or no time really studying the teachings of Jesus Christ and have instead read some diatribes against Christianity which misquote Scripture and take passages out of context to shape their own agenda.

Have you read the four Gospels or just cherry picked a text and interpreted it for yourself? The New Testament? The Old Testament? Anything about Church history? I seriously doubt it.

I have 50 years of Catholic education so no.

The word homosexual was never used in the Bible until 1946.

I’ve been through the era of divorced people being denied communion, denied marriages outside “the church”, denied annulments unless you had money or power, denying baptism to “certain” people.

Girl get out of the book and get into the community.

Listen to the Holy Spirit not men at the pulpit.[/quote]

If you’ve been enrolled in Catholic education for 50 years (?) and haven’t learned that The Holy Spirit guides the Church in Faith and Morals Teachings, then that’s a problem.

I am Catholic—a convert of 30 years—and am plenty involved in my community, thank you. [/quote]
