However, to bless homosexual couples is to bless the sinful act of sodomy.

What about homosexuals who are not sodomizing? There are lots of heterosexual couples who do not copulate.

Maybe - it is the sinful act that should never be blessed, but then, who am I??? I would just pass the decision on to a higher authority (not the Pope of Arch-bishop), the one who judges, the keeper of the gate.
