Personally.
I believe for us to be compatible with God. We must make ourselves compatible.
As God is separate from mankind, as the Earth is to the sky.

The water in the sea can become part of the air, if it undergoes transformation.
But without this transformation. The water stays part of the sea.

God is Truth, Love, Justice etc.
In order for us to be with God, we also must become like God. Not God, as the water particles in the air that come from the sea, do not become air, but exist within the air, we need to become like God while not becoming God like.

Otherwise doesn't matter what religious faction you belong to. If we do not work towards compatible.
Then we will not realise.

But that's just a theory.... I guess i am a heretic.

A "gay-friendly breakaway Catholic Church" I would "get".

But not a "gay Catholic church". Gay only wouldnt make sense.

But even you start a "gay friendly" Catholic church- you would have to address that other issue-that of pedophile priests. Priest sexually abusing children- which usually is same-sex abuse.

So your breakaway Catholic church would have to be gay-friendly, but NOT harbor same-sex abusing pedophile priests. It have to be seen to NOT do what the existing gay-hostile Catholic church does...which is to harbor same-sex-abusing-pedophile priests. And therein lies the rub.
