The term "homosexual" is not offensive, JWDT.
But are you living in a cave?

The Vatican and its minions here in the US have denounced gay adoptions, for example, as "doing violence to children." Homosexuality is termed an "intrinsic disorder." Same sex civil unions or benefits conveyed by government called
"pretended marriage." The Vatican and the US Bishop's conference have demanded passage of a Constitutional amendment to prohibit equal access to a civil contract!

Gay sexual expression is, of course, the ever popular "sinful," but we "love the sinner."

Karol Wotija condemned the EuroPride celebrations in Rome several years ago as "an affront to the faithful," and demanded that the Rome government rescind its permit to the gay festival.

If these things were said and done to blacks or Jews, people would rightly be up in arms. "How offensive is that?" they'd ask.

Cardinal George has said that marriage is "set by god and natural law." And of course, to inveigh against that is grounds for a firm response by some who take enforcing god's will to violence. Can you spell I-N-Q-U-I-S-I-T-I-O-N?
