The pope should be concerned. The Catholic churches and churches in general have had a problem of pedophiles and homosexuals being attracted to their ranks. Now we are going to require churches to hire them? We need an international push back on everything homosexual. This issue is no better than global warming the only difference is the lies have been let stew longer and have made more inroads.

These gay activists fundamentally do not believe in religious freedom.

The Pope is against homosexuality and queers everywhere are offended.

They can both keep their mouths shut as far as I'm concerned.

Self appointed mouthpieces for their own agenda, they should both either shut up, or put up.

"His ill-informed claim that our equality laws undermine religious freedom suggests that he supports the right of churches to discriminate in accordance with their religious ethos.

If they can't, then what the heck is religious "ethos" for in the first place?...............

I thought this was scrappleface when I started reading this. Would anyone have thought 20 years ago that this anti-religious bigotry would be not only practiced but defended? What a damn post-modern time we live in. We need to bring back truth and meaning to society, so they realize what they are defending and attacking.

“they should both either shut up, or put up.”

The Pope is right to condemn Labour’s attempt to force the Church to hire poofers.

You will now be the subject of many prayers, including mine, that God (and not any imagined one) will ‘trouble you’ such that you will come to realize that He is, that you will realize your need for Him as well as your need for salvation through His Son Jesus. Prayers up.

In a more secular slant, let me say that it is good you have the freedoms, BASED on Judeo-Christian values, to slander religion in general and Christianity in particular. May you not come to regret not supporting it if Sharia comes to town.

Why is this a surprise. I think probably his criticiam of HARRY POTTER is more problematic, especially after John-Paul II said he liked HARRY POTTER.

Well, if the Pope doesn't like the law, take their pagan priests back to VC.

If Tatchell wants to be a priest or get into Catholic-politics, He should quit bonking with other Men and start reading scripture, or something.

What’s Christian about Catholicism, have I missed something? I believe in God and Jesus as His Son, not in Mary the Queen of the Universe, reincarnated, many times.

Matthew 24 Tells Us About “the End”

Verse 10:
Many will be *Offended*
Will betray one another and will hate one another....

“Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold.

The WORD of GOD...

I can think of few things more foolish to a person’s eternal salvation that labeling the Pope “ill-informed.”

Then again, deviants like this shmuck pretty much have their future plans assured.
