Dear Editor,
The Church is being characterised as bigot for upholding the same values which have brought us to this stage of civilisation.
My question to those who promote and support homosexual conduct is: Is homosexual activity harmful to the individuals who engage in it and to society in general?
All the evidence at my disposal says it is harmful, so if anyone has evidence to the contrary they are free to present it.
The only reason they give support to their conduct is that they want to be able to do as they like.
Since that conduct is harmful, if one finds oneself that inclined, one should seek help to correct the disorder; there are numerous reports of people overcoming the inclination/temptation.
If someone contracts a disease and seeks to spread it, that would be a criminal act. The same principle should apply to so-called same sex attraction, because it is harmful, that is why the law prohibits its practice in order to protect society.
It is the Church, through its Christian values and principles, which created the civilisation we enjoy today by initiating public education, university education, health care, human rights, international relations, social justice, economics, and much more.Read How the Catholic Church built western civilization by Thomas Woods.
The Church is now being accused of bigotry by the beneficiaries of its labour, including some counterfeit reverends, for maintaining the same values which it used to give them the civilised status of which they boast. They are cutting off the limb they are sitting on.
