Who said you were an arrogant prick? What a false charge that turned out to be!
Just face it. YOUR church says you and the Good Father have it wrong on gays. You didn't read the article, or simply don't care because of your own personal leanings. Or failings. You're simply trying to justify your own immoral behavior. The article is not flawed. You just want it to be.
This is wrong - "The fact is that the Catholic Church does not require every sex act to have procreation as a goal...and it is also OK to engage in those acts for pleasure only and definitely not intending to have children...therefore, the use of artificial means to achieve both ends (marital joy and family planning) makes perfect sense...so said the Vatican II commission.
Now, as to the relationship of this issue to Same Sex Marriage....a union of two people can be an expression of LOVE ONLY between them...btw, the Catholic Church blesses marriages between couples who are well beyond any possibility of procreation...i.e. LOVE IS LOVE."
