According to this "guideline", queers are welcomed by the Catholic Church, told that having same-sex inclinations is NOT considered a sin, but ACTING on this inclination will send us to the fiery depths of hell. Now, I've heard something like this before...when was it? Oh, yeah, now I remember. It's the same bullshit some of my Baptist relatives espoused when they found out I was gay, thinking they were being all progressive: "We know you were born that way, noir_moll, but if you act on those dirty, dirty perverted feelings, you're destined for a miserable life and eternity in hell." Ugh.
