I don't get to post much, but appreciate everyones knowledge on the Faith.
Im in a wee bit of a panic at the moment, here is the situation.

My son (20, lives at home, going to college) is dating a girl that is "so close" to conversion- she was raised Methodist, but it never jived with her, and she is pretty sharp when it comes to the logic of the Faith.

BUT-

She is attending college in a nearby town (is boarding there), and, her roommate is a lesbian (sodomite, yes, but just wanted to be clear, its a female).

My son just mentioned to me that last week, when my sons gf tried to get in her room, she was told "some business" was going on- this went on till 12:30am. aka sodomy taking place

Can someone tell me, my gut says yes, that this is a very very spiritually deviant situation that this girl is living in. In my mind, I keep thinking that there have got to be demons galore running amuck in that room, and here she is, living in the same room.

Does anyone know of the spiritual aspects of this?

yes, the obvious is that she doesn't need to be there anyway, but, till she fully sees this via conversion, I don't see it changing. just wanted to throw that out, cause I agree and its clear to me (just wont be to her at this very moment).

In a nutshell, grave spiritual danger even if the girlfriend is merely present in the room.

The only solution is for the girlfriend to request a new dorm room or lodge somewhere else. Finding a room for her in your own house is an improvement.

Also, if your son is visiting her at late hours, that's a opportunity for mischief also.

You should pray regularly and speak to your son about all of this.

Thank you for the reply. If you can elaborate in any way as to the spiritual side of it, that would be helpful, as she is coming from not really knowing that part of it. And honestly I do NOT do reading about the devil, too freaky, even if its in the Catholic reading realm. The closest Ive even come is the screwtape letters. But theologically, I just have never touched it.

She was refused entry to her own room for which she pays? She got a moral problem and a legal problem. She can't be all that "sharp".

If she doesn't find alternative accomadation immediately, he should give her a miss.

She wouldn't be "so close to conversion" just for the pleasure of your son's company, would she?

Or are you pulling our collective legs?

That gf is a trouble maker. I was in the military and was given a room to share with another lady( I am a lady). That room mate was using drugs and I sure did not want to get involved. I went straight to the top and told them all and that gal was moved off post and I had the room to myself.

If the so-called gf stays with this lesbian it is that is what she wants. Some want both. That is right. There are marriages that the man is doing both. Talk about the spread of STD's!

Your son needs a good conversation with mom and dad and get the story out in the open!

If it is a dorm she can and should request a change of rooms. She can tell the management that her room mate locks her out so she can have s*x. She should also fear for her own safety. If the room mate gets drunk or does drugs she just might attack the the GF.

If it is a boarding house she should tell the owner the same thing.

THANK YOU ALL- this is the font of love that springs from love for one another!

Though my original question pertained to, in a sense, how the evil spirits might be lurking in such a situation...your comments had me thinking the last two days on the fact that the situation has essentially gotten off track, and we will need to talk w our son in great detail over this. In reality, we are looking at a lost girl being exposed to liberalism at its worst, a sinking ship if she does not abandon quickly, both for her and possibly from my son. That is the real bigger picture here.

That is what I needed to hear (I just didn't know it) :o)

God Speed to you,

Time you start. Know your enemy. Hell will be a whole lot freakier.
Read about him ONLY through the Bible and Catholic saints writings.

I agree. I don't agree with the girlfriend living with boys parents.
