Whatever his stance is about homosexuals doesn't negate the Bible's stance on what they are. We can rage all we want but the truth remains the same.



Many hypocrites in the world, homosexuality is fine but bestiality is bad. Misconception of what morality is is on the rampage. Do your quota as a BelIever, speak against wrong behaiviours, it will sure save us decades of decadent.


I term homosexuality in people a sick trait, if that makes me sick to this clergy then I believe my stance in Christ is quite rooted.

Panter215: Times are changing and we should not stand still. I agree with him that this gay thing should not the only focus for Christians. In Nigeria Christian nowadays join in the vises ripping our country dry (corruption, kidnapping, oppression e.t.c) and do not see or make issues out of it. Lets focus on the issues the should change our lives and all the other vises will disappear.

Don't forget he said homophobes are sick. The above is just a fraction of what he said.

People read well and what I decide to shed more light on concerns no one since it borders on what was written.

I agree that the homos*exuals shouldn't be driven away from the church though, the bishop shouldn't pet up things jor. Should we be giving them thumbs up and high fives?

I really wish Nigerians and Africans in general showed the same revulsion and outrage they show to homosexuality to other real social vices that plague the country and stunt its growth - especially corruption. Morality in the twisted, perverted definition of most Nigerians is defined by attitudes to sex and sexuality and not the holistic view of morality that affects every facet of life. The same person that cheats in everything, from cheating in his academics to the workplace and politics, would often be the first to decry homosexuality. It's rank hypocrisy and a total misplacement of priorities and accounts for why this country, this continent and our race would remain firmly at the foot of everything that matters in world affairs until there's an ideological shift and people learn to use their brains.

And that is not even addressing the key question: how does an individual's sexual preference affect your life and why do you feel the need to meddle in his/her choices?

you are sick, not because you stand for what is right but cuz you lack simple comprehension skills. yes the bible calls it an abomination/a sin, but you are a self righteous hypocrite who needs to start reading his/her bible with clarity of mind.

9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals,
10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.

Bros when parents wake up tomorrow and decide that their "se*xual preference" is their children, should we close our eyes and allow the children to get sodomized as even some priests and individuals have reportedly done to some children. Talking about "se*xual preference", if we all start acting out our se*xual fantasies it's gonna be a crazy world as it is even fast becoming.

That's not a good comparison at all. Abusing children sexually is wrong cos it takes advantage of their vulnerability and inability to make informed choices. Abusing minors is wrong whether coming from hom.osexuals or heterosexuals. Any sexual activity between adults that is consensual and impinges on no one's rights shouldn't concern the public.

Holier-than-thou christians believe hate of gays is the right thing to do, probably violence against homosexuals won't be contrived as evil in their eyes, bt is that biblical? Quote me a verse were intolerance of sin endorses hate for the lost sheep. If u chase the sin along with the sinner and u call urself righteous, u have failed woefully as a ' christian ' . We like to think we know what God is thinking, God doesn't endorse homosexuality, so also is murder, sloth, greed, Hate, malice, and the likes which we hv unconsciously labelled as regular sin dat can be cleansed with a simple prayer. We are no different from the Pharisees of old.

You mentioned "sexual preference" so I used that example to show that we shouldn't all go indulging in our se*xual fantasies cause some of the preferences are real wack and if we all go indulging it, it's gonna be a crazy world. I tell you.

Catholic Bishop: Antigay Attitudes 'Sick' and 'Heartless'
Mexican bishop Raúl Vera once again speaks out strongly on behalf of LGBT people.
BY TRUDY RING
JULY 15 2014 3:00 PM ET


Bishop Raúl Vera
Mexican bishop Raúl Vera, one of the strongest advocates for LGBT people within the Roman Catholic Church, is speaking out again, this time saying, “People who say homosexuals are sick are sick themselves.”
Vera, the bishop of Saltillo in northern Mexico, made the statement in an interview published Monday in the Spanish and Latin American newspaper El País. He did not go so far as to endorse same-sex marriage, but he took a more progressive stance than is common in his church.
The interviewer said, “Not long ago you baptized the daughter of a lesbian couple. What do you think about homosexuality?” Vera responded, “That is a topic that we have refused to address. The people who say homosexuals are sick are sick themselves. The Church needs to come to them not with condemnation, but with dialogue. We cannot cancel out a person’s richness just because of his or her sexual preference. That is sick, that is heartless, that is lacking common sense.”
The church’s official stance is that LGBT people deserve respect and compassion, but it strongly opposes homosexual acts and same-sex marriage.
Vera also took a stance, similar to Pope Francis’s, that opposition to abortion and same-sex marriage should not be the church’s only priorities. He said he considers abortion murder, but added, “Abortion, just like same-sex marriage, has served us [as] subterfuge to tell ourselves that we in the Church have our morals. It is very easy to go against a woman who has an abortion, it poses no trouble and we have support from the ultraconservative right. When there was a national campaign against abortion here, I organized rosary recitations to reflect on the defense of the lives of migrants, miners and women as well as the unborn. But we are hypocrites. It would seem that the only moral rules deal with condemning same-sex couples and abortions. You do that and you’re the perfect Christian.”
El País notes that in the past, Vera’s advocacy for oppressed people, including gay people and the poor, had gotten him into trouble with the church’s hierarchy. In 2011, when John Paul II was pope, the Vatican investigated Vera’s work with a gay group. But much has changed under Pope Francis’s leadership.
“For a long time, Raúl Vera was the Catholic Church’s black sheep, the old-fashioned left-winger,” the article reads. “But that was until the ideological earthquake represented by the new pope, Francis I, gave renewed relevance to his words. Now, other bishops are suddenly turning to Vera for guidance.”
Any religion that supports the practice of SSM is evil.
What a joke of a religion!
same people that will have séx with innocent boys and girls,
that their nun and sisters will become pregnant in the convent. etc
pathetic!
