    There is a hell, i.e. all those who die in personal mortal sin, as enemies of God, and unworthy of eternal life, will be severely punished by God after death.

    From the Catholic Encyclopedia.

    Now I’m not clear from Google whether or not gay sex is a mortal sin, but it seems like it’s leaning on yes. Just being gay might not send you to Hell in Catholicism, but acting on it? Sounds like maybe.

      What a stupid religion, “hey you have free will and I totally gave it to you, BUT I SWEAR TO MYSELF ILL TORTURE YOU FOR LIFE IF YOU DO THINGS I DON’T LIKE ARBITRARILY!”

        Also “I’m all powerful and created the entire universe but if you little ants on this one little rock don’t worship me, I’ll condemn you to eternal damnation!”
