Forcing LGBTQ+ to remain celibate, or forcing them into a straight marriage is not "remaining good"

Forcing people into loveless marriages isn’t good.

Why does the Catholic church suddenly have ownership of marriage?

Because the Catholic Church is the church that Jesus founded and that St. Peter (the first Pope) is the rock of. Christ himself elevated marriage and its importance.


Sounds like a good enough reason to oppress people and be hateful towards people, I suppose. As Jesus commanded of course. Jesus sure encouraged hate and intolerance and being a vessel for harm.

Murder and rape happen all the time too, does that make them good?

Just because something happens a lot doesn’t mean it should happen at all.

Why should Lgbt people be forced to chose between two awful options neither of which will make them happy? It would cause misery and mental harm.

What you think is "good", is causing mental strain and depression for others.
This sort of thing happened a lot in our recent history, secretly gay men and women in loveless marriages who either ended up with their lovers in secret or drank to numb their depression.

Sundiata wants to force homosexuals to marry people of the opposite sex and procreate to find fulfillment.

The emphasis of the sentence was on the idea of being forced into a loveless marriage, not the loveless marriage itself.

Reason is not to be utilized for its own narrow sake, but for the sake of sanctification. We have free will so we can adequately love God in return. It's a choice, ideally a reasonable choice to marry a man and woman.

And what makes that choice any more reasonable than a two women marrying? Two men? And that's without getting into NB people, as well...

Easy and not so easy. Natural law in accordance with divine law and will.

Does not answer the question. You are still ignoring the harm you are doing to children, let alone to the same sex parents.

Then the marriage is legally valid. Not divinely. I want marriages to be both divinely and legally valid.

That civil law is obviously incompatible and illegitimate in Sundiata's global Catholic theocracy.
