//Found out where you are wrong yet?//

Ooh! Sir! I know, sir!

Well, tell him!

Eastern Catholics, sir! They're Catholics, but not members of the Roman Church.

That's right, Toni, and you can have an early mark tomorrow or, if you prefer, on Friday.

You could have made your answer more complete by referring to the different traditions of the Catholic Church as 'Rites' but as they are all Eastern Rites then you are correct.

Gold Star.

Paul,

I'm an atheist, that's my right in a democratic society. Folau is a believer, and that's his right in a democratic society. I'm not particularly offended by his comments, they spring from his beliefs, as my opinions spring from mine. We both have the rights to our beliefs and to their expression in a democratic society. We are both able and allowed and free to express them no matter who we offend. Even if I were somehow offended by his observations, that shouldn't count for anything in the arena of free expression. Wouldn't you agree ?

Clearly, many homosexual believers may get upset, since, like Folau, they probably believe in a hell. Whether they would dispute what he says but would like to suggest that their book says otherwise, is up to them to work out between them, it's a sort of internal matter. They are also free to express their opinions and to argue for them. In a democracy, everybody should be free to honestly argue out their opinions.

And without any bullying from big business: money shouldn't hold sway over opinion in a democratic society; money shouldn't be able to silence anybody, I'm sure you should agree.

Cheers,

Joe

the bad news

(1Co 6:9) Surely you know that the wicked will not possess God's Kingdom. Do not fool yourselves; people who are immoral or who worship idols or are adulterers or homosexual perverts

(1Co 6:10) or who steal or are greedy or are drunkards or who slander others or are thieves---none of these will possess God's Kingdom.

the good news

(1Co 6:11) Some of you were like that. But you have been purified from sin; you have been dedicated to God; you have been put right with God by the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
