Tom Robson released Glad to Be Gay 1978, and Billy Bragg and Kirsty MacColl sang Sexualy 1991, an elated hymn to sexual liberatn.

(CNS photo/Pl Harg)Sce Buildg a Bridge, a book on misterg to lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr Catholics, was published, I have been asked—at Catholic parish, retreat centers, lleg and universi and nferenc—a few qutns that recur over and over.

WHOOPI GOLDBERG CLAIMS DESANTIS DISLIK ‘PEOPLE OF LOR,’ ‘GAY FOLKS’

The most mon are: “What n we say to gay people who believe that God hat them?

” And “What n we say to gay or lbian Catholics who feel that their own church has rejected them? ”Another mon qutn is about the church’s official teachg on homosexualy, homosexual activy and same-sex marriage.

Buildg a Bridge tentnally steered clear of issu of sexual moraly, sce I hoped to foster dialogue by focg on areas of possible monaly; and the church hierarchy and the majory of lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr Catholics rema far apart on the issu.

As an asi, sce the Catechism of the Catholic Church, a pendium of church teachg on var topics, do not addrs bisexual or transgenr persons but rather “homosexual persons, ” I’ll refer here to gay and lbian people to be more teachg at the most basic level is ntaed the Gospels and, even more basilly, the revelatn of the Father’s love J Christ.

Moreover, his public mistry J ntually reached out to those who felt ignored, exclud or margalized, which many gay and lbian Catholics do.

In fact, gay, lbian, bisexual and transgenr Catholics are probably the most margalized group the church today, and so I believe that Christ lov them wh a special to gays and lbians, then, the Gospel valu of love, mercy and passn are the buildg blocks of all church that end, ’s important to state that the ey of the church simply beg gay or lbian is not a s—ntrary to wispread belief, even among ted Catholics. Regularly I am asked qutns like, “Isn’t a s to be gay?

GAY MEN AND AGG

Nowhere the techism do say that simply beg homosexual is a s. As any reputable psychologist or psychiatrists will agree, people do not choose to be born wh any particular sexual when most people ask qutns about “church teachg” they are referrg not to this qutn, but to rtrictns on homosexual, or same-sex, activy as well as the prohibn on same-sex marriage. Homosexual acts are, acrdg to the techism, “trsilly disorred” and “ntrary to natural law.

” (The bulk of the techism’s attentn to homosexualy is ntaed Nos. ) Consequently, the homosexual orientatn (and by extensn, any orientatn other than heterosexualy) is regard as “objectively disorred.
