Summary

I felt it was important to record this video. This is airing in the middle of Pride Month, and Catholics need to have the courage to stand up for Church teaching and state that they cannot support Pride Month.

Now to be clear: the Church does NOT say we should hate people who experience same-sex attraction. It DOES say that we ought to treat them with respect and compassion. But that does NOT mean we can say their actions themselves are properly ordered.

So first we’re going to take a quick look at what the Catechism actually says about this topic. Then I’ll offer you some hope by showing you messages from bishops who are publicly taking a stance for the Catholic Church’s teaching on sexuality.

0:45.5	But I kind of don't care anymore.
0:48.0	I don't mean to sound cavalier about it, but I will not stop teaching what the Catholic
0:56.4	Church teachers, just because it's not popular.
1:01.1	So if YouTube wants to come after me, that's fine.
1:04.4	Come after me.
1:05.4	My family and I will do something else.
1:07.5	But an honest question, how many significant Catholic YouTube channels are addressing this?
1:12.2	My fear is that we're not addressing this because we've all heard of channels that are

1:20.4	So what I want to do today is take a look at what's certain, it's a shame to say brave.
