US support for same-sex marriage soars; most Catholics approve

"Self-identified Catholics were even more likely than the overall sample to favor same-sex unions." Obvious fruits of: "Who am I to judge?" Likewise of the confusion invoked by Amoris laetitia. A church divided against itself is a church that will eventually implode. As our pastor said a couple of years ago, Christ never promised that the U.S. Church or any other particular Church would not fall to the gates of hell. Only the Catholic Church (and Orthodox Christians) will stand the test of time.

I wish Pew would distinguish between practicing and non-practicing Catholics and give us some assurance that its sampling procedure captures a representative cross section of each. We, like many others, do not pick up the telephone to answer surveys, thereby causing pollsters great difficulty in getting representative sampling.

The Pope's ambiguous statements on the sacraments of marriage and the Eucharist and on adultery left the gates wide open for the undecided to go with the culture of death.

This is what happens when people go by feelings rather than reason. But "Isn't everybody entitled to love [sexual implied] & shouldn't we be treating people equally?", the clarions of inclusivity will ask. Yes & yes, as long as specifics are developed consistent with human nature. It is biologically incontrovertible from structure & function that active human sexuality is male-female. Sorry, tolerance totalitarians, but active human sexuality is inherently & unchangeably unequal. Male-female.
