Thread for Tony Fearon to to pontificate about Catholicism

Marriage was invented by God and derives from a faith base.Gay supremacists having got civil partnerships now just want to rub the noses of people of faith by polluting what is a Holy Sacrament. Why? What is the difference for them between Civil Partmership and Marriage?

Was gay sex invented by God?

No obviously but if ever a human being could be made by two dudes putting from the rough Sidley, my money would be on you being the progeny!

I have never encountered a more liberal human being in my life, well played sir, well played!

Then again, you don't get out very much.

Gays can get married in the UK or the South.Why do they want a marriage,a church based sacrament,when they are in conflict with the Church's teaching?

Gay marriage is mostly about undermining traditional marriage, not about any relationship between the people concerned.

Anybody who feels that "gay marriage" undermines their own "straight marriage" is already living in a marriage that has been undermined by one or both of the participants themselves.

Poor poor Sid. No chance of you getting married to either sex I'd say.

It's always great to debate with intelligent people.

Except you can't debate, just through unfounded accusations around with no evidence to back them up.  Poor poor Sid with his mate from a traveller background.  The chic liberalism of it all.

You prove my point with every post you make.

Marriage is a civic institution with an optional religious component for those who want it.

Since when?

Since governments and the legal system got involved?

Unlike, say, communion or confirmation or confession.

Whichever God, should have patented it

Read an article today by Belfast Telegraph's Religious correspondent,Alf Mc Creary,on the courage of atheists,on their death bed,rejecting God,and potentially risking a very very bad eternity.As he said a believer once said to an atheist, "If you're right neither of us will have an after life,but if I'm right you'll know very quickly of God's existence!"

Your faith seems to be little more than you hedging your bets.

It is vibrant,but I would not deny that the prospect an afterlife/eternity,and to spend it in a good place is a key motivator.

I always found that to be a cowardly stance to be honest Tony, and I am no lover of atheism.

[T Fearon]

Atheism is cowardly? Risking a lost eternity through non belief? I would never be brave enough to take that risk.

The Christian God is an invention. Nature has always called the shots.  Our lifespan is a thing that nature decided. God has nothing to do with it. Christianity puts humans at the centre. This is nonsense.

What do you think an afterlife / (positive) eternity will be like?  Would you still be aware of Celtic getting pumped in future Champions League campaigns, such as the trouncing the other night by PSG?
