i am truly disgusted with the catholic church 

everything about the above (taken from a local catholic newsletter) in my opinion is wrong. in fact, i am tempted to email the pope or something because this is just shocking.

i’m almost positive that this is against the equality act of 2006 as well as many others. what makes me more angry is that despite all of these acts and laws being passed; institutional prejudice is still ongoing and publishing something like this in the form of a newsletter is SEXUAL HATRED.

what’s more appalling is that a sermon was given by the priest at my (now ex) church. he asked people to sign a petition disagreeing with gay marriage because, as he explained it, god intended marriage to be pure between a man and a woman and it’s simply not the same with two men.

i am sorry (but yes i did research this) the teachings of the catholic church state that homosexuality is not a sin and is not condemned. at the point when this was discussed by the priest, i walked out into the street.

i went back after church so i could talk to my mother but she shunned me, along with others in the church. many people were signing the petition at the back and discussing homosexual men and women as if they were dog shit.

i will never step foot in that church again
