1st) Seperation of Church and state was an Idea of Jefferson's (correct me if I'm wrong but there was a letter and he was the one who made reference to the wall of seperation), the constitution only stipulates that government is to make no endorsing religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Secondly considering the whole idea of the forum that the SCHOOL was HOSTING was "homosexuality and religion" the girl was not the one out of line.
2nd) Comparing people who don't agree with homosexuality to the TALIBAN is probably the most stupid out of line comparisons I have ever heard. Are people not allowed to disagree with lifestyles and actions that they view as wrong? I must be buddy buddy with Mullah Omar and OBL because I think fucking animals is wrong and disgusting.
3rd) What are the Catholic's wrongfully interpreting like the Taliban? Granted the church of old has been out of line and down right evil themselves regarding many things of THE PAST, there is no misinterpretation of the bible going on. Yes Jesus called you to love your fellow man, you can disagree with someones lifestyle and not hate them, or in the case of your retarded Taliban comparison put them to death. The church's view on homosexuality is as such, it is not wrong to be homosexual as it is something you cannot help, acting on it however is where the sin lies. God calls people to love homosexuals, as he does all "sinners", I'm a sinner, your a sinner, we are all born with dignity and we all have a worth, being gay doesn't change that and if anyone thinks otherwise they are idiots and not True christians or catholics.
So in the future please keep your ignorant Catholic bashing to a minimum, because your assumptions and comparisons are not only wrong and ignorant, but as a catholic myself, I take offense to it.

I wonder how many gays (and heteros) take offense to you equating homosexuality with "fucking animals". Perhaps that was not your intent but that's the way I read it.
So, Catholicism preaches that homosexuality itself isn't bad but the act is? Is it really fair to make a distinction? Saying one thing is ok but the act used in order to show it is not? Maybe it's my fault, using concepts such as fairness in a discussion on religion.
