It's interesting to note that when Ham looked upon his father's nakedness, when Noah found out he said, 'cursed be Canaan', Canaan was the off spring of Ham, and Ham passed on the homosexual trait to his off spring because the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah were towns in the land of Canaan. Notice 'cursed' and Jesus became a 'curse for us on the cross so that we could be free from the curse. Homosexuals can be set free, look at 1 Corinthians 6:11 where Paul says that they were once homosexual but were now no longer, set free by the cross of Christ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543129696041324861.post-41991144976515314652016-04-11T16:43:33.895+01:002016-04-11T16:43:33.895+01:00Your logic - to flatter you more than somewhat - e...Your logic - to flatter you more than somewhat - eludes me! 13.03 & 1440.

While I have no intention of taking sides as such I will throw my twopence worth in- for what it's worth.<br />Those on here who are calling on the bishop to put a stop to this would be best to remember to live and let live. These people have probably paid good money to come here. There are many who come to our city each year and go round all the murals, visit Titanic etc. That's a form of pilgrimage to them. I don't think it's anyone's business how people choose to pray. But I think it's everyone's business when misguided people try to stop others from worshipping. That's the sort of intolerance being displayed by The Taliban. We can't behave like that.<br />Perhaps Dalrida Dick is right. A little more travel might lead to a widening of views and an increase in understanding.

We are sick and tired of the likes of you, up on your high bloody horses, accusing everyone who does not share your nebulous and confused world view of "hysteria", being "brain-washed", etc. Keep your bloody agnosticism and take all bad priests and perverts out of the Church and keep them with you. Have one great big jamboree of mixed up religion and go to blazes. We will not be dictated to and lectured to by the likes of you. The bishop of Down and Connor has a very serious responsibility to stop this fiasco taking place in his diocese, in Clonard Monastery. Otherwise, a sign should be erected outside Clonard Chapel that says ICHABOD!

It must be approached in a state of grace otherwise, according to St Paul, you are eating and drinking your own damnation and you are "guilty of the Body and Blood of the Lord". <br /><br />This nonsense in Clonard must be stopped by Bishop Treanor. It is a parody of pilgrimage by a bunch of jokers on a jamboree of the most ridiculous form of paddywhackery. <br /><br />"Land of rainbows and wedding bells"? Oi right! There are no wedding bells ringing in any Irish Catholic Church for people aping and mocking Christian Marriage - and there never will be. <br /><br />So these eejits would be better staying in America. They are a bunch of smart alecs and they think they are funny, sniggering up their sleeves at the Catholic Faith with a bogus mockery of a "pilgrimage". <br /><br />You can just picture the gather-up of queens that will be on it too. They can all go to Hell. Bishop Treanor must put a stop to it and tell the rector of Clonard monastery to bloody well wise up! <br /><br />I wonder how the redemptorists in Clonard would like it if faithful catholics were to boycott this year's Novena??? <br /><br />The redemptorist order has lost the plot in Ireland and been taken over by a bunch of acid-tongued fairies and mincing nancy boys. <br /><br />I am sure many of the great redemptorist fathers I knew in my day are looking down from Heaven and asking God to send a scourge from Heaven to clear these reprobates out of the great order founded by St Alphonsus! <br /><br />Shame on them.

Did nobody tell you that the celebration of the Eucharist is open to all even an oul agnostic like me.<br />Since when were you in a position to judge the worthiness or otherwise of participants in a pilgrimage. When did being gay bar anyone from full participation in any act of worship?<br />Your problem my friend is that you have a closed mind tinged with homophobia and infused with typical Ulster narrow mindedness. To make matters worse for you is that you are probably a catholic whose mind has been poisoned with all the hypocritical shit that comes from the hierarchy about matters sexual and which has, across the generations, caused folk like you unending guilt and an inability to not only accept others of a different sexual orientation but to love them for who they are. <br />Away you go and catch yourself on. <br />Folk like you are from another age. Wise up and join the 21st Century and remember that a lot of those boys in black and purple who fed you all that tripe about homosexuals are gay themselves.<br />Take heed, my friend of the saying attributed to Herbert Spencer.
