I also wonder how you feel knowing that. How do you feel now as Easter is upon us, that these Churches see as a inherently broken, as queer people, at best? For them to love the sinner and hate the sin, they need to find some way of explaning how sin can persist in seemingly normal humans.
But I have to stop here, I just had a great confession at my Church where I schooled the priest on what Pope Francis means that Priests shoudl accompany queer people. Its not about telling queer people what they want to hear, on their journey. Its about listening to queer people. Its about letting queer people drive their cars and not the clergy.
As you are a queer person, I really find your blog fascinating, just discovered it. In Namibia, we have mixed bag of views, but for the most part its pretty traditonal.
Have a good Easter.
And Equality House cannot be compared to Westboro Baptist Church. One place has Judy Garland as a Saint, the other condemns all who pray to the Saints.
Oh! Oh! In my Confession today I was moved by The Spirit, I believe to say "...I ask the Ever Blessed Virign Mary, all the Angels and all the Saints, especially Saint Sebastian the Patron Saint of those in similar situations, to pray for me to the Lord Our God", before the priest gave me the absolution.
