Ban on gay author shows that Catholic church is still failing young people
The archdiocese of Southwark’s decision to ban a gay author from speaking at a school (Catholic church bans visit by gay author to London school, 9 March) shows that the Catholic church still has much to learn about protecting the wellbeing of young people.
Young people need examples of all types of positive, loving relationships, same-sex and otherwise, to help them make informed choices about their own relationships.
Restricting access to such information can create a culture of secrecy, fear and confusion. Some members of the Catholic church have relied on such a toxic, closed culture to let them get away with horrific acts of abuse against young people for many years.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

In the mental vault of things I wish I’d never read and will never be able to forget is the description of one of the videos found (or was found that he viewed) on Duggar’s computer that involved a female toddler. The lead detective on the case said it was the most horrific thing he’d seen in his entire career. As Dexter would say, forget prison; someone needs to just take out the trash.

Do any of you guys cross dress? (I guess literal "guys" since I doubt females would cross dress)

I wear panties in public, but it's not like anyone knows I'm wearing them.

No, but what does cross-dressing have to do with being gay?

Some gay guys wish they were women.

That’s transgender, not gay. But that doesn’t answer my question. Plenty of people cross-dress who aren’t gay.

Boru I'm not so sure about that. Cross dressing is pretty ******.

Great. Another troll fills the void left by the previous one. What is it with this thread?
