Is the Guam Archdiocese advocating the torture and murder of gays?
Earlier this year a bill was introduced in the Guam legislature that would allow recognition of same-sex domestic partnerships. The Roman Catholic Church responded with a multi-page letter that concludes with this:

"Islamic fundamentalists clearly understand the damage that homosexual behavior inflicts on a culture. This is why they repress such behavior by death...It may be brutal at times, but any culture that is able to produce wave after wave of suicide bombers...is a culture that at least knows how to value self sacrifice."

I am rendered speechless.

"...any culture that is able to produce wave after wave of suicide bombers...is a culture that..." places no value on human life.

or anyone you don't like/agree with SELF sacrifice??????? Just because you off yourself in the process doesn't make it sacred martyrdom, much as these religious batshit insane types think it is.

Glad to see they (Guam archdiocese) aren't trying to hide what they are, which is terrorists.
