Homosexuals are possessed by demons as soon as they commit an act of sodomy. This is because demons can only enter into people through “sins that cry out to heaven”. Demons like to hide, and its not like they will exhibit any sign of their control of a person unless they are provoked. They hide because they don’t want to be discovered. They like to hide in humans because humans are ninety percent water. [/quote]
Are all demons hydrophile?
Do lipophile demons hide in people who commit the sin of gluttony?
I seriously need to get to the bottom of this!!!

So Orion is not a demon ?!
who would have thought that ?

Maybe I am possessed by one?
Would I know if I was?
Can anyone give me a list of what would invite demons?

Yes I can, but if someone makes the case that homosexuality invites demons I am far more interested in finding out how that works according to him.
So far, what I have is mortal sin, like repeatedly and unrepantently, but I am still in doubt whether homosexuality is indeed a mortal sin.
It definitely is not on Jesus list and the case that can be made for it seems to be somewhat contrived.
I thought I could go with deadly sins, but that does not really work because a deadly sin is not so much an extra heinous sin but more like a sin that leads to more sinning.
Looking at the CCs definition of mortal sin, which one can subscribe to or not, it is not clear that homosexuality is a mortal sin either.
In fact, the CC church teaches that you cannot know whether someone is in a state of mortal sin because some criteria are highly subjective and you cannot look into someones heart.
To claim that you can would be heresy and possibly blasphemy.[/quote]
Depends what you means by “homosexuality.” If someone is attracted sexually to the same sex, does it mean they have to commit sodomy? Feeling “gay” isn’t a mortal sin. Acting gay is (meaning homosexual sexual acts). Chastity is a virtue of the Angels. Just like heterosexual catholics, homosexual catholics are called to be chaste. Since there is no marriage in heaven anyway, doesn’t that mean you can be like an Angel and have a lot to look forward to?

Dunno, I am still trying to find out why homosexuality is considered a mortal sin.
The examples used are usually Sodom and Gomorrah, which does obviously not apply, Leviticus, which, if it does apply is forbidding specific acts (like touching a pig skin on saturday, herpdy derp) and Timothy, Corinthians and whatnot which, by there very nature are highly unreliable because anyone who translates anything from that time as “homosexual” tells us more about his cultural biases than about what was actually written.
