"How can you be in a Church which holds their views on homosexuality?" they ask. If you really took that view to the limit, though, the Church would be empty because people would feel they could only be one of Her members if they had no sin or moral disorders. <BR/><BR/>At work I take alot of flak about Catholicism. Sometimes I'm like a scratching post for people who can't understand. It seems to be an entrenched view that placing children with same-sex couples is a great idea. I'm always arguing against that. <BR/><BR/>Fact is I'd rather be in a Church that told me the truth and listened to my Confessions rather than a church that told me that there was nothing wrong with homosexuality at all. That the Anglican Church is giving mixed messages about that is terribly damaging to society.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-89044332500399636662008-07-05T21:41:00.000+01:002008-07-05T21:41:00.000+01:00The staged adultery in Brighton is one of the them...The staged adultery in Brighton is one of the themes in "A Handful of Dust by Evelyn Waugh".<BR/><BR/>No adultery actually took place in that story.Physiocrathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13682019625346594568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-67055995095021923022008-07-05T18:39:00.000+01:002008-07-05T18:39:00.000+01:00is there a marketing campaign "What goes on in Bri...is there a marketing campaign "What goes on in Brighton, stays in Brighton?" :-D <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gde7hP0bKws&feature=related" REL="nofollow">Someone's missing a great ad campaign</A>!gemoftheoceanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05521207668262592414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-3347481796366685552008-07-05T17:32:00.000+01:002008-07-05T17:32:00.000+01:00Dennis out of courtesy we tend to use the titles p...Dennis out of courtesy we tend to use the titles people choose. <BR/><BR/>I am not going to say to the second Mrs Jones that she is really Miss Smith and an adulteress.<BR/><BR/>As far as the orders of Anglican clergy are concerned since 1928 and the use of what would appear to be valid bishops, we have to be more careful of the conclusions of Apost.
