@Stuart tv..... if you read my comment i did not say the word 'all" at anytime......and it was just the few"" bad seeds" so called that i was referring too since the fact of the matter is that all catholic social services were not threatening to stop providing services......my opinion is just like yours mine is mine and {yours is your}...have a good life.

[StuartTV]

@RAINBOWEXECUTIVE4569 Yeah, I hear you. I understand. Just making sure our video wasn't making generalizations. Thanks for your feedback and stay tuned for more videos!

[RAINBOWEXECUTIVE4569]

are we talking about the same Catholics that don't seem to have a problem when little children are being molested among them that's whats sick..... but got a problem with gays....wow they got some damn nerves!!

[StuartTV]

@RAINBOWEXECUTIVE4569 I see the comparison you're making, but you gotta be careful grouping all Catholics and all priests together...I mean, were the child molestation cases a systemic problem or just a couple of bad seeds?

[truthisnotalwaysnice]

if the bible clearly states that homosexuality is wrong, then why do they contemplate if it should be allowed or not??. its a clear answer,

NO

[StuartTV]

@truthisnotalwaysnice Well, just because you think homosexuality is immoral shouldn't mean you refuse to provide food and shelter to people

[savioblanc]

What a load of effing bullshit! Catholic Charities is only closing its adoption services- it is not closing its homelss shelters as that has nothing to do with gay marriage. The maker of this video is using a homeless woman, with no understnding of this issue, to rant against a Church, that she does not understand. Wow! and fucking pathetic!

@reasonandfacts where I live, United Kingdom, we have civil partnerships but religious organizations have exemption from having to place children with gay couples or perform gay civil ceremonies. Nice try mate but you cant make this into an issue of religious liberty

[MamaMario13]

@truthisnotalwaysnice yes it is cruel to make the homeless suffer because the state will not impose your values upon everyone else. I am not catholic therefore why should they tell me who I can sleep with or marry?

[reasonandfacts]

This is a lie. The Church will only shut down programs where the government forces the Church to adopt to homosexual couples or unmarried straight couples. Now of course the maker of this video is intentionally spreading lies to misinform people. So sad you have to lie when you do not have the facts on your side. And to take advantage of these homeless people is sad. It is sad this woman who the Catholic church takes care of so quickly turns her back on the Church some the gay agenda lied.

@RAINBOWEXECUTIVE4569 That abuse is being done by homosexuals that have come into the Church to destroy it. Nice try.

@pgagolf25 What? It's the Catholic Church that's only looking out for its well-being! The gays just want to get married, which has no effect whatsoever on the Church. But the Church is trying to keep the gays from marrying by threatening to close down the shelters. In other words, the Catholic Church is holding its own hospitality for ransom in order to manipulate the government into taking its side. Last time I checked, Jesus never said "Feed the hungry, but not if gays are allowed to marry."

@truthisnotalwaysnice Because our country is democracy, not a theocracy, which means that the Bible does not dictate the lives of all its citizens. There are a lot of people who believe the Bible is absolute nonsense, so they don't really care what it says about homosexuality. Why do you feel like it's your right to control the lives and choices of same-sex couples? What major impact do you think gay marriage is going to have upon your life?

[redgirlinbluedresses]

What a stupid pastor. The government can't force the churches to marry anyone. The only institutions that have to marry gay people now are the court houses. Any church that WANTS to marry gay people can do so if it pleases, but no church is going to be forced into it. This is just more proof that religious nuts are ignorant as hell.

"It's not over......til the choir lady sings..muahahah" you could tell that stupid prick had just been waiting to use that pun for god knows how long.
