A South African court just ruled against a Christian Church for refusing to recognize homosexual “marriage”.

Yes, it was the Dutch Reformed Church. And all churches should take heed: the reason the judges gave was that briefly, several years ago, same-sex “marriages” had been permitted in that church, and after a few years, they went back to their original position of forbidding it. So the court argued that if it was a changeable stance, it did not represent anything of innate religious significance and was no more than an opinion and thus subject to anti-discrimination laws.

This means churches - including Francis’ new improved Catholic Church - that are dabbling in this LGBQT(fill in initials of your choice) stuff should think twice.
