Theory of Evolution, Atheism, and Homophobia.
#25
RE: Theory of Evolution, Atheism, and Homophobia.
People have an inherent tendency to be afraid of those who are different. Unfortunately fear of gay people (homophobia) and people of other races, other cultures, etc, is always going to exist.

As for the Church's teaching on sexual morality, yes, we believe that sex should be kept as a sacred bond between husband and wife. But that doesnt justify being afraid of or prejudice against sexually active folks who don't fall under that category.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
