there is no doubt in my mind that climate change is occurring, or that its a natural process. i am a bit of an eco freak, but although we are speeding up the process, what is there that we can do to stop it? what we should be investing our time in is minimising our impact and finding ways to...
arent we?? because thats what i was always taught in church. and i doubt its their mission, there are many gays who still wish to remain catholic, but cannot practice their faith because of how their faith treats them. The Lord created them this way, so why should they not be accepted?
