We need to understand the position of the Pope and the Catholic Church. the support for civil union must be clarified by Rome. Gay people are humans and must be protected by the law, but gay marriage is not accepted in the church.

The Pope was not even supporting the civil union of same sex marriage. At least from the answer he gave, I didn't see that at all. He was just saying that the society at large should not deny homosexuals the right to coexist peacefully with others. And that is true whether some people like it or not.

Jesus flogged people out of the temple, He didn't say create a space for them


All the sinners He drew to Himself changed

The catolich church has always been about their money, this is to draw in new members. Read the Bible for yourself and seek God's direct intepretation

This man has lost his way

The catholic church has been drifting away

This is the crux of the matter

Thank God for all those future thinkers who broke away

No one is saying hate same sex folks, but you can't endorse them

I don't hate Trump, but I definitely can't endorse him, for example

This is madness

Can you tell me exactly how the Pope endorsed homosexuality?

Are you trying to tell me that it's right to deny homosexuals their civil rights ( eg employment, promotion etc) because of their sexual orientation.? Is doing so not evil?

It's obvious that many people are trying so hard to put words into the mouth of the Pope.

HuntSon:


I'm saying this because the only argument y'all seem to have against LGBTQ is religion! It's not about forcing anyone!


Secondly....u guys choose to ignore research and stick to religion...just like u ignore simple biological facts

Clinical psychologist and behavioral experts have released tons of research on human behavior and raising of children...with respect to same sex union

There are ideally only two kinds of human being on the planet ..male and female.....
Research has shown that it's best for children to have a balance of both genders in their development stages(age 0-6) ...The deficit of either gender usually present consequences on the many children

..that's why they have said it's not the best for children to raised right from scratch by single fathers, single mother, or same gender parents..


2) sex is nature's construct...and like other nature's construct that leads to something greater...sex produces another human being ....that's how humans all over the world have naturally assumed that male/female sex is the idealway to have sex....long before religion came...
it's only natural for people to feel negative or weird about another sexual act that's completely different from nature's construct ...and people have always felt weird about it before religion came...even before it became so common

My point is it's not just about religion as I claim....there are non religious people all over the world that don't agree with same sex....even in liberal america and uk
It's laws that's making people behave civil...I hope u know there was a time when the law jailed homosexuals in the uk..?? It was protest like end sars and the presence of gay people in power that twisted the arm of the law...

Are you sure you read what the Pope said. It's obvious you didn't read it.
The Pope did not say anything about civil union.

The following took place during an interview:

When the director asks him if a homosexual can take his children to church, he replies:

“Homosexual people have the right to be in the family, they are children of God, they have the right to a family. No one can be thrown out of the family or made life miserable for that. What we have to do is a law of civil coexistence, they have the right to be legally covered. "

How did you get all these things you are saying from the above statement? It seems that you're trying so hard to put words into his mouth.

The teaching of the catholic church concerning same sex marriage is there on the internet for everyone to see.

THIS IS A BIG FALLACY YOU CHILDREN OF HYPOCRITES
PROUDLY CATHOLIC
The Pope can't make a change on his own without the approval of the college of cardinals. The Catholic church is not a Pentecostal church that one person owns and make changes whenever he wills. Infact, no one can change the church's teaching on marriage: its one man, one woman.

The Pope only suggested that they should not be discriminated against as Christ didn't discriminate against any one. Did Christ condemn the woman caught in the act of adultery? God hates sin, but not the sinner, whom He welcomes back anytime he makes a u-turn like the prodigal son.

Matthew 1:1-7 is about the genealogical of Christ. Out of the five women mentioned there, one was a prostitute, two were adulteresses. Tamar slept with her father-in-law (Gen. 38), Rahab was the prostitute that helped the Israelite spies (Joshua 2), Bathsheba slept with King David who mudered her husband, Uria (2 Samuel 11). If Christ discriminates against sinners, He wouldn't have allow such people to be in his lineage.

But Jesus Christ emphatically said that some people are children of the devil.

John 8:44 KJV
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Bible says evil communication corrupts good manners
1 Corinthians 15:33 KJV
Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

The problem is the spiritual consequences of such associations which must eventually result to physical re-alignments. I don't think you will like your kids to be moving about with a known criminal in your locality.

2 Corinthians 6:14-18 KJV
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship l hath righteousness with unrighteousness? m and what communion n hath light with darkness? [15] And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? [16] And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them ; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. [17] Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing ; and I will receive you, [18] And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Please allow the word of God to guide you on how to relate to the homosexuals of this world.
Remain blessed.

You didn't cook up the story but obviously you didn't read the whole story. If you had read the whole story, you wouldn't have said things that the Pope did not say. You are not alone on this, many here didn't read the story at all.

Next time, try and read everything before commenting so as to enable you comprehend the story properly.

You can't reach a conclusion by only reading the first paragraph on the front page.

Fortunately, Pope is not God.

The only marriage approved by God is a Union between man and woman.

Any other behavior outside this, is a rebellion against God's standard.

Before you try to disagree, pause and think.

No single human being on earth came from homosexual reproduction.


If you are going to accept other forms of sexual behaviours outside heterosexual. Then you have to embrace the rest like humans having sex with animals, paedophiles etc.



Abi oh...if they say man and man or woman and woman is okay then why can't they accept man and animal or old human and young human (phedophile) ...nonsense people

No I won't pretend. Young boys have actually been preyed on by priests. But this amounts to only about a little percentage of priests when compared with the total number of priests in the world. Unfortunately, the bad ones no matter the number, will always overshadow the good.
