Are you sick? Is it nairaland that said what the pope said? Or nairaland shouldn't report what is hot news now and trending..

Its on Aljazeera, BBC, CNN, Bloomberg, France 24, Newyork Times even Financial papers carried this news... Don't you know the amount of human views attached to the Popes opinion.. Last week, they said pope would forgive sins on twitter, this week its another thing and you say Nairaland is reporting it as anti-catholic... Mtcheeeww. I pity you.. Olodo.

woodcook: Seriously most peoples' comprehensive skill is so disappointing, that I am considering starting a movement that will force Seun into administering IQ test before registering/commenting on NL.

Please for those of you who are aggrieved by the pope's statement, you guys should clearly explain to the rest of us where the pope's statements contradict Christian teaching on homosexuality. Until then you guys should shelf your hatred towards your fellow human otherwise you guys are no different from the Islamic terrorists. So next time before you point fingers at those terrorist you should think twice.

35000tons: Dear Pope,

Nobody is asking you to judge gays...you are only expected to point out their errors (using the bible as a guide) and show them the way of the LORD.

As someone said earlier,''The Vatican has lost it.'' The question now is, when do we start having gay priests and bishops?

fedimol: Jesus loved the sinners and hated the sin. I guess that's what he's trying to say. As for me though, I'm still anti-gay.

My Apologies to Homophiliacs

P.S. I just coined that word

Guush mehn!
I saw this thing on BBC and I was disappointed.

Different Popes different stance in one Religion..

All ya religious people how you all doing..

I expect to watch fight and argument on nairaland bai.. Oya gbagan.. Round one.. Fight..

Muslims, you can come and laff and amuse yourselves at xtains fighting against each other, that is not to say when Muslins too would be fighting themselves xtains won't laff ooo and that is not to say Xtains and muslims won't still have a Seperate fight later ooo,

But atleast its been bashing of Muslims since Senator Yerima's Childs-bride issues, nao let the Pope cause his own fracas for Bashing of xtains..

Religion is truly The Opium of the people..

We can Abolish Religion..
Yes we can..

Pygru: The Pope's position on gay people appears to contrast with that of his predecessors.

Pope Francis has said gay people should not be judged or marginalised.
Speaking to reporters on a flight back from Brazil, he said: "If a person is gay and seeks God and has good will, who am I to judge him?"
The Pope's remarks are being seen as much more conciliatory than his predecessor's position on the issue.
Turning to the issue of women priests, he said the Church had spoken and had said"no", but the role of women should not be restricted.
"We cannot limit the role of women in the Church to altar girls or the president of a charity, there must be more," he said in a wide-ranging interview with Vatican journalists.
Five months after he took over from Pope Benedict, he said gay people should be fully accepted in society.
""The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains this very well," Pope Francis said.
"It says they should not be marginalised because of this but that they must be integrated into society."
But he condemned what he described as lobbying by gay people.
"The problem is not having this orientation," he said. "We must be brothers. The problem is lobbying by this orientation, or lobbies of greedy people, political lobbies, Masonic lobbies, so many lobbies. This is the worse problem."

Wsdm: Mr. Pope, you are not to rule base on your volition. Tell us what the Bible says about this, simple. Must you all be controlled by western idiocy? Christianity is making itself two porous.

p'scott:
I don't blame the pope because truly he can't judge them due to the fact the he ain't God bt where i quote him wrong was when he said''once they seek the face of God almighty and do his good will''

mascot87: I am very sure most nairalanders would misinterpret what the pope is trying to insinuate cos of lack of wisdom understanding his simple statement.Already I am seeing some bigoted illiterates making statements that makes me wonder why some ignoramus bigocony continue to reason with there nose rather than calming down, digest and think deeply on what the Pope is trying to say using there brains.
Most people would make silly statements just because they don't believe in the ideology of the Catholic church.Most people are hardcore Religiolistic and tribalistic in nature.

goldenval: Some people do not understand proverbs at all... What our Pope is trying to teach us is that " once gay people seeks the face of God almighty and do his good will, meaning repentance from the act through the grace of God almighty and God forgives, who is he to judge?

Remember a story about Paul in the bible who was killing christians just like Boko Haram but one day God arrested him, he repented and God made him one of his apostle.

What about Mary Magdalene whom people like you here nearly stoned to death because she was a prostitute but our Lord Jesus saved her and she repented. Today she is in heaven.

All these people mentioned here, are they different from gay people?

Boko haram people kills but does gay people do the same?

Please what we all need is prayer for them because tomorrow, one of us might bear a child that might become a gay and if that happens, what would you now do?

Pope is 100% right and I guess those kids here that dropped out of school should keep quite here!!!.

Indifferent: I'm a catholic but someone should tell pope to shut the fuk up.
I go soon carry vex join mountain of high tension. Oku!

obailala:

Can u please go back to the report and read it again; this time read it slowly instead of just commenting based on the topic of the thread.

To save u the stress of re-reading (that's if u even read it in the first place), the pope has simply said that 'sinners' should not be judged but should be allowed to come to church and not be ostracized. He however states very clearly that he is against the 'lobbyists' who are on a campaign to make it look like being gay is right.

Can u please now tell us what the pope has said that is against bible teachings or the teachings of Christ?
