Haven't posted in awhile...needed the time to acclimate. But, I am back! Doing my part to ensure blogging remains a vital part of the worldwide webenon.
MPR is talking about sexual orientation in the church, and how anything but heterosexuality is a 'disorder'. That's one I struggle with. Moreover, the church admits humans are sexual beings- it's simply that priests need to learn to be their sexual selves in a chaste (?!) manner, while abstaining from self-touchy. It's a sexual unravel-ution.
May as well take NRA's guns, but have Heston remind members that they need to celebrate sporting events and man's inherent need to kiil to survive...just not with guns. Perhaps poetry.
Oh, and dig this: centuries ago in western Europe, (according to a book I picked up for three minutes at Barnes & Noble this past weekend) priests could partake in sexual acts, but could not marry- only concubinal coitus. Then, more recently, but not lately, the church was in favor of allowing priests to marry (according to MPR)...but they were not allowed to nook. With their WIVES. Now, neither goes.
I am not so sure anyone has it right. Not only do we think Jesus was fair skinned, but we assume he didn't have any other 'disorders' as well.
Pass the wine.
