It is, however, not an accurate statement of what the Church that Fr. Martin belongs to teaches.

AFAIK Catholic doctrine does NOT (unlike some fundamentalists) deem "being gay" in terms of being attracted to the same sex is necessarily a sin, but that is different from *acting* on that attraction. A distinction Martin tends to blur though.

Yes. Also the Gospels and Epistles and the Catechism have some things to say about marriage that he's not eager to mention.
