“The church says that a gay relationship is not on the same level as a relationship between a man and a woman. That is clear. But when they are faithful, when they are engaged for the poor, when they are working, it is not possible to say, ‘Everything you do, because you are a homosexual, is negative.’”
Well, in that case, I guess Henry VIII should be canonized;
because while the church might hold him to be in error with regard to his marriage arrangements, at least he was trying; and he was engaged for the poor, and tried to otherwise rule well...
“The German bishops’ have repeatedly stated, in the face of opposition in the past from Pope Benedict XVI and now from the head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Cardinal Gerhard Müller, that they will simply defy the teaching of the Church and her norms of practice and start offering divorced and civilly remarried Catholics Communion.”
OK,Henry VIII should have been granted his divorce.
Yeah, I think the Cardinal is not quite understanding the homosexual lifestyle. Faithfulness, is not what their lifestyle is about. Why is it so hard for people to understand that this is just another scam. The true purpose of which is to destroy the institution of marriage, as it has been known, and replace it with something "fairer"; which, inevitably, will not work nearly as well.
The Special Interest Groups (Grievance groups), have been doing this for decades, taking one item at a time on their list for imposing radical change in America. And, they have been quite successful. I believe marriage, as we have always known it, is done in this country.
