text: I'm at a loss. I would lose what?
  
  What the Catholic Church believes and teaches are what we as faithful Catholics are to believe and live. The conversation which the homosexual community wants to have and drive forward is to accept their behavior. If we don't and wish to hold to our Christian values, they wish to drive us out of business, to deprive churches of tax-exempt status and to embrace a lifestyle which is harmful to our eternal souls. 
  
  None of this is to deny a homosexual that they are a person loved by God as any other human on the face of the Earth. That is the dignity with which they are to be treated. Homosexual behavior, as with any other sinful behavior, moves us away from God, and as we turn our back to Him, we cast our own shadow and live in its darkness. I would love for everyone to turn to God and live in His light.
  
  As for Dawkins, in his world there is no objective truth, be it from Creation's beginning to the miracles happening today. I feel sorry for him.
