I think that we have more<br />of Catholics thinking that way.<br />I can't think for myself and have to be told I am wrong to be born the way I am. Guess that we have many interpretations of all issues, and the Big Old Boys up there will fight, with the idea that we can do what we want and<br />you are to do what We SAY!!!radicaljoe7@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06862443944741490965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4517388058225414110.post-42603607062702282752012-04-28T21:38:24.894-04:002012-04-28T21:38:24.894-04:00Correctamente. . .;-)

The act much be seriously wrong. 2.I must know it is seriously wrong. 3. Knowing that it is seriously wrong I must freely choose to do it. "Freely" is a key word.<br /><br />This is the routine "in the box" stuff. If any one of these is missing, there is no "sin".<br /><br />The 'official teaching' of the Church is that conscience is the supreme norm of moral judgment.JustinO'Sheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07379283329949646000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4517388058225414110.post-70511398088449684522012-04-28T18:28:58.917-04:002012-04-28T18:28:58.917-04:00I don't remember all that much about what I wa...I don't remember all that much about what I was taught in religious class at school. But I do remember one thing said by one of the De La Salle brothers there...
