Where do you get bigotry from? I'm simply trying to say treat everyone equal under the law, but make distinctions and use different words to describe different things. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

The Church will not marry a man who is impotent. If he can't have intercourse, they will refuse to marry him. Nice, huh. If you lost your penis in a war, and many men have, no getting married for you. The Church openly discriminates against the disabled. "In 1996 the Catholic Church refused to marry a paraplegic man because he was assumed to be unable to engage in sexual activity which led to procreation which was contrary to Vatican policy" There are lots of stories like this one out there. It's really disgusting, what business is it to a bunch of men in the priesthood if you can have sex or not. http://www.catholic.com/blog/trent-horn/why-the-church-cannot-marry-the-impotent If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

big·ot ˈbiɡət/ noun a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions. The Church is extremely intolerant of practicing homosexuals, that's bigotry. What else would you call it. Yet the Church itself has a huge number of Gay priests. Your current Pope admits it. Talk about irony.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I can hear the forum collectively thinking: "I find that hard to believe" :) Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Ha, I knew you would quote the definition and you my friend are the picture next to it. By the way thanks for quoting a very good source in one of your recent posts. If one would just ignore what you wrote and read the link that would be great. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

You mean the Church discriminating against disabled people? The loving, tolerant Church? Are you saying it's not true? If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

FrGamble Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 67 Posts: 7596 | I'm saying that your link does a better job than I could in explaining why it is not discrimination. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

Everybody who discriminates has a 'good' reason for doing so. It's still discrimination and you know it. I can list all the 'good' reasons why whites discriminate against blacks, or Muslims discriminate against Jews. Why are your reasons better than theirs. They aren't. In fact, the Church is in violation of the law. The Equality Act of 2010 makes it against the law to deny a disabled person exactly what the Church is denying him. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
