[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a Catholic, I am a sinner. I sin every day; however, I still continue to BELIEVE all the church's teachings regarding faith and morals, and strive to follow Christ's commands despite my imperfections.

The flawed logic in "Cafeteria Catholics" is that in disagreeing with the Church's teachings on various teachings (pro-life, homosexual BEHAVIOR, fornication, adultery, etc), they no longer BELIEVE that certain acts/behaviors are sinful anymore, tricking themselves (through rationalization) that engaging in these acts/behaviors is therefore perfectly acceptable to God.

Seriously, there are tens of thousands of Protestant Christian denominations out there to fit just about any cafeteria line there is. Why not respect that the Catholic Church for standing up for their "unpopular" convictions with regard to moral issues?[/quote]

So are you saying that a Catholic who supports gay rights even though they are straight themself, faithful to their spouse and try to live a moral life should join a Protestant denomination because they don't agree with the Church?[/quote]
