If you're asking the Church to walk away from the words of Christ in the Gospels and the letters of Paul, you're asking it to walk away from its very reason for existing.

So if each religion regards every other as heretical, who’s to judge which is correct? And doesn’t this issue call into question the validity of being divinely “chosen”? Faith & religion is nonsense, a delusion that impoverishes, fetters the imagination & wastes time

I agree with all of that - my point at the outset was never about what makes a true Catholic, but to say that I believe the teachings on LGBT people are harmful and that I believe they will change over time because younger generations are not going to accept those stances IMO.

And that’s where you’re wrong. They haven’t changed for 2,000 years despite constant attacks, they aren’t changing now, and will never change

I think we're basically in agreement here. For the purposes of this thread, I'm talking about the nature of truth, not which denomination has it. The fact is that we have scripture, and it tells us the truth, and the truth is not to be altered to keep the pews full.

I think so too and I agree it's way too complex for 280 character replies. I do think that church's will eventually soften/change stances to keep members b/c some of the positions (esp with LGBT) are just untenable, but I think that will be a very gradual change over generations
