Catholics should remember the past
I would like to remind Bob Lowth, who declared homosexuality a sin according to the Catholic Church, that at one time the same church sanctioned the burning at the stake of non-Catholics. And killed people who believed that the earth revolved around the sun. And held Galileo under lifetime house arrest after making him recant his declaring that the earth revolved around the sun.
Of course those things wouldn't happen now. Many things that are said today will be changed tomorrow. I just ask that someone once said (he knows who) that only he who has not sinned should cast the first stone. Mr. Lowth needs to remember that.
