    'Striving to be saints'

    Posted by: Chris

    Cardinalgeorge Chicago's Cardinal Francis George confesses the near-impossibility that gay Catholics can follow church guidance released today that requires them to lead an entirely celibate life:

    Cardinal George acknowledged that gay Catholics called to chastity face a difficult sacrifice. He commended gay Catholics who try to live a life of celibacy.
     
    "They are not only striving to be chaste they are striving to be saints," he said.

    Brings to mind the old Billy Joel classic "Only the Good Die Young": "I'd rather laugh with the sinners, than cry with the saints"!
