An open letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury...

Dear Justin,

I write to you about a matter of the utmost seriousness and urgency.

I know from what you have said on the matter that you are opposed to gay marriages taking place in Church of England churches. Nevertheless you will undoubtedly find yourself outnumbered by bishops who would welcome this abomination. The acceptance of homosexual practices is one of the most reprehensible aspects of modern society.

I'm not sure if you are familiar with this blog Justin, but I have been a longtime campaigner against the legalisation of gay marriage in this country. My campaign war cry has been,

Gay Marriage 

It shall never be

Not in Merrie England

Land of the free

Homosexual practices are sinful - remember what the saintly Pope Benedict XVI said: 'Homosexual acts are disordered and always intrinsically morally evil.'

Saint Catherine of Sienna

Let's have a look at what Saint Catherine of Sienna reported from the words of The Lord himself:

 St. Catherine of Siena on homosexuality

St. Catherine relays words of Our Lord, about the vice against nature, which contaminated part of the clergy in her time. Referring to sacred ministers, He said: "They not only fail from resisting this frailty [of fallen human nature]…but do even worse as they commit the cursed sin against nature. Like the blind and stupid having dimmed the light of the understanding, they do not recognize the disease and misery in which they find themselves. For this not only causes Me nausea, but displeases even the demons themselves, whom these miserable creatures have chosen as their lords. For Me, this sin against nature is so abominable that , for it alone, five cities were submersed, by virtue of the judgment of My Divine Justice, which could no longer bear them…It is disagreeable to the demon, not because evil displeases them and they find pleasure in good, but because their nature is angelic and thus is repulsed upon seeing such an enormous sin being committed. It is true that it is the demons who hits the sinner with the poisoned arrow of lust, but when a man carries out such a sinful act, the demons leave."

Very strong words indeed. Even the demons are so nauseated that they depart when homosexual acts take place.

And of course it is not only the Anglican Church who are falling hook, line and sinker for the agenda promoted by the Gay Lobby. Consider this recent pronouncement from a Catholic cardinal, Cardinal McElroy, in the USA:

It is a demonic mystery of the human soul why so many men and women have a profound and visceral animus toward members of the L.G.B.T. communities. The church’s primary witness in the face of this bigotry must be one of embrace rather than distance or condemnation. The distinction between orientation and activity cannot be the principal focus for such a pastoral embrace because it inevitably suggests dividing the L.G.B.T. community into those who refrain from sexual activity and those who do not. Rather, the dignity of every person as a child of God struggling in this world, and the loving outreach of God, must be the heart, soul, face and substance of the church’s stance and pastoral action.

The self-basting pietism of McElroy and his ilk makes me sick.
