[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have not one, but two, Catholic friends who were horrified to find out that my Catholic husband and I are in an "invalid marriage due to lack of form".  We were married in my Protestant church without dispensation from the Catholic church.  One of them won't even speak to my husband because she considers him living in sin.  The other mentions, every time he sees us, that we need to get our marriage convalidated so we're "really married".

But both are vehemently pro-same sex marriage.  Can any Catholics explain why (some? most?) Catholics are accepting of same sex marriage, but consider my husband and I just live-in lovers?  I know lots of Catholics pick and choose rules, but it seems strange to pick and choose rules specific to marriage (or any of subset of Catholic rules, but this is the one that affects me).[/quote]

Now imagine if people like this were in high positions of power telling everyone else how to live and interpret Bible and teachings of Christ. ISIS, anyone?[/quote]

Oh please

Comparing someone's words expressing a religious belief to Isis, which throws gays or suspected gays off the roofs of high buildings, films it and posts online is a ridiculous comparison and you know it.

Don't be stupid. You are hopefully smarter than your post indicates.[/quote]

It all just starts with words. You want someone in power with an outlandish belief system? You are so naive to think we don't have people in the US who would kill in the name of Christianity? You really don't think there are people who believe their religion is the correct one? Catholics already had their ISIS moment. It was called the Inquisition. [/quote]
