Quote:A group of U.S. Catholic bishops has released a statement condemning the bullying of LGBTQ youth, insisting “all people of goodwill should help, support, and defend” them
The signers noted the Catechism of the Catholic Church — which describes “homosexual acts” as “intrinsically disordered” — also calls for LGBTQ people to be treated with “respect, compassion and sensitivity.”
“All people of goodwill should help, support, and defend LGBT youth; who attempt suicide at much higher rates than their straight counterparts; who are often homeless because of families who reject them; who are rejected, bullied and harassed; and who are the target of violent acts at alarming rates,” the statement reads.
The signers of the statement, for their part, directed part of their comments directly to LGBTQ people, saying, “know that God created you, God loves you and God is on your side.”

Only a pack of hypocrites would claim to be supporting LGBTQ youth while acknowledging the Church's stance that homosexuality is "intrinsically disordered."
