This thread is pure lunacy 
Dollius, these are the words of the Pope which I think have caused so much uproar re homosexuality:
"Although the particular inclination of the homosexual person is not a sin, it is a more or less strong tendency ordered toward an intrinsic moral evil; and thus the inclination itself must be seen as an objective disorder."
It should be pointed out that he said this around 25 years ago and I think perhaps his words would be slightly different if he re-issued the statement today. However he does not say that homosexuality itself is evil but that it leads to evil, there is a huge difference if people would only open their minds and look at the words properly.
He is saying that homosexuality leads to sexual acts which are not for the purpose God intended (ie. purely for the sake of pleasure and not for reproduction) such acts are considered 'evil' (which is a bit of an antiquated word to use) by the Church whether they are committed by homosexuals or anybody else.
He has never said that homosexuals are evil. While the above view may seem unfair it is the one that is given in the Catechism, the Pope did not make it up! It's a very difficult area as the Church is never going to change it's teaching to say that sex is OK for any purpose other than to make a new life (it's fine to enjoy it, just as long as you're open to a new life). Sex between homosexuals obviously does not have this primary purpose so it is difficult to see how the Church can say it's OK without changing their entire teachings.
However, the act of homosexuality is no more ''evil'' than a husband and wife using a condom and my own view is that it is up to the individual to use their conscience in that respect and decide for themselves how they can square what they are doing with Church teaching and what God asks of them.
None of us live exactly in accordance with what the church teaches (unless we are Jesus Christ). Jesus said that love is the most important thing: "Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins'' (1Peter 4:8), if people have that in their mind then I think their conscience should not trouble them too much over any act which is borne out of true, genuine, unselfish love. Whether an act is truly unselfish I think we know ourselves if we think carefully enough about it.
