Thank God for faithful, intelligent and articulate priests like Fr Clovis.
Let's earnestly practise his five proposed strategies.
Meanwhile, I just need to note that there is a maxim: HE WHO CONTROLS THE LANGUAGE CONTROLS THE DEBATE.
A generation ago, homosexuality was anathema to western civilisation. Since then, the general (voting) public have been brainwashed by the mainstream media (news, current affairs, entertainment) to the point where now the general public accept homosexuality almost without demur.
A significant factor in that brainwashing has been the language used by homosexualists and, thus, the media. One term in particular has been pivotal. That is "gay".
Homosexualists adopted the word gay so as to present their perverted lifestyle as one that is joyful and carefree. Thus their opponents are presented as mean-spirited bigots.
Given that, if we use the term "gay" to describe homosexual(ity), we are advancing their cause, we are losing the debate, we are contributing to the public brainwashing.
I hope, Fr Clovis, you will understand what I'm trying to say. Perhaps you could resolve not to use the term "gay".
