A topic I feel very strong about. According to the Church, homosexuality is a mortal sin. A school system in Mass. (sorry I can't spell the entire name correctly, no offense meant) sent home a "diversity" backpack with a booklet portraying same-sex families. If they are trying to get the mentality across that homosexuality is ok if it makes you happy (liberal viewpoint), then it is way wrong. They are corrupting the minds of young children, encouraging sinning, and while it may be venial now (they aren't aware that it's a sin), it will become mortal once they are fully aware of their actions and consequences. This topic really opens up mortal vs. venial sins, there is a document in teh Vatican library (see Veritatis Splendor ) published by His Holiness Pope John Paul II about the subject. I am very against the idea for the reasons above. Your thoughts?
