WHO IS THE PATRON SAT OF GAYS AND LBIANS?
Sats Sergi and Bacch were a homosexual uple who tly loved each other. They are regard as patron sats of homosexuals and are almost always picted together. Some say Sat Sebastian was also homosexual, and he is often regard as a patron sat of homosexuals as well, though isn't exactly official yet.A:The Catholic Church has alloted no official patron sat of homosexuals. Gay activists groups have been lobbyg for one sce the papacy of John Pl II. A:The alleged homosexual relatn of Sts. Sergi and Bacch is the work of a sole historil revisnist, the late John Boswell. The two sats had an extremely close relatnship, beg both soldiers and secret Christians a bodyguard attachment. In the ancient text of their martyrology they are lled "erastai" the Greek, or "lovers". That fn n also mean "brothers" or "uned heart". It was both the ctom and belief the ancient world and specifilly the east that men uld love each other as brothers a non-sexual ntext wh a greater tensy based on honor and loyalty than a man and a woman uld ever love each other, for only another man uld know the virtue and strength of another man's heart and nvictns. There is a plete lack of support for Boswell's claim other than the timels for his claratn, for currently is que vogue to look for such thgs every quarter. The quote of C. S. Lewis would seem to be appropriate here that " has actually bee necsary our time to rebut the theory that every firm and ser iendship is really homosexual." A:Homosexuals also look to St. Sebastian although this is not so much bee he is claimed to have been a homosexual so much as the gay movements sir to honor him as their patron. A:The great difficulty wh this issue is that the Catholic Church believ homosexual behavr to be gravely sful, and as such, would not seem appropriate to name a patron. If the Church did name a patron would probably not be appreciated by the homosexual muny as the Church would assign a sat whose tercsn would be to strengthen those wh homosexual tennci om givg and engagg such behavr as has done the se of prostut and other such thgs. As a rult, the Church has acted diplomatilly and remaed silent regard to pleas to name a patron sat one way or the other. Clarifitn:Acrdg to the "Roman" Catholic Church. The Old Catholic Church (Ultraject, Unn of Ultrecht) do not nsir homosexualy or beg a part of the "Alphabet Soup" (GLBTIAQ) general to be a erastai uld mean "uned by spir"-- was also wily ed for more physil sorts of romantic relatnships between men the lerature of the time as well. So really 's a 50/50 ll eher way. It's worth notg that the Roman Catholics have more to lose if they adm this, given their ongog and sometim rabid persecutn of personal opn? I thk eher as iends uned wh a sgle heart, or blsed lovers ( is mentned they went through the ung ceremony that once existed the Catholic Church for same-sex partnerships. This ceremony was employed many tim, for both men and women. The last rerd of 's e was a female uple jt after the Catholic Church began a more wispread mpaign agast homosexualy the 14th century (a reactn to the Black Plague. Homosexual upl did not produce children to work fields for the nobily who turn fund church. This papal nmnatn led to homosexual figur such as Sir Galaht, a Christian and one of Arthur's knights, beg erased om popular culture of the time through succsive retellgs of the legends. Galaht today is so margalized that most do not know of him at all when prr he was one of Arthur's greatt knights, mentned before even Gawa song.)-- after this the ceremony is no longer allowed. Today, many Catholics don't know existed at all.), St.s Bacch and Sergi would be perfect official Patrons. As a Catholic who happens to be bisexual, I certaly pray for their tercsn, as well as St. Valente (1). St. Sebastian is more about the will to never give up the fight-- he was executed for spreadg Christiany, healed om his mortal wounds by St. Irene and went after Dcletian to chastize him for his persecutn of Christians, only to be executed aga. Any other person might have n, but Sebastian jt kept on dog what he felt was right even though st him his life twice. That's fely somethg we Catholics of the GLBTIAQ n relate to.Catholic AnswerNot per se, the sats that would be ed this stance would be those who were well-known for personal chasty. The sat most often voked as a patron for male chasty is St. Joseph, hband of the Blsed Virg Mary. Others who uld be nsired would be St. Augte of Hippo, who led a very promiscuo life before his nversn (his motto at the time was, "Lord, grant me chasty, but not yet." For women, the Blsed Mother, and St. Maria Goretti, who fought to her ath rather than allow an attack on her chasty. * patron saint of gay *
