Sad to say, I agree with the Pope on this one.
HOWEVER, the Homos jamming, cramming and forcing their lifestyle, beliefs, desires, etc. down our throats SHOULD BE A CRIME!!!!

Francis’ comments were perhaps predictably praised by notorious LGBT advocate Father James Martin S.J., who called the interview “An immense step forward.”

Bergoglio and Martin, two Jesuit homosesexualists, feeding off each other.

I am so glad my wife left the Catholic church shortly after we got married.

“I’m not a criminal”

We’ve heard that before

Homosexuality is a crime in the Bible, which the Pope should prioritize above human laws.

Indecency is a crime. Homosexuality is indecent. Therefore...

Catholics are nuts to keep supporting this guy with their offerings.

Send that money somewhere (anywhere!) else.

Who to believe, the Almighty in the scriptures or this woke leftist occupant in the Vatican?

Not a crime, but definitely a sin. Something for which to be ashamed, and seek help to overcome. Something has gone wrong somewhere, and with God’s help, it can be made right.

It is wrong to try and normalize it, and to make it an actual crime to say it’s a sin!

The Bible says otherwise.

The Bible has a very definitive position on homosexuality.

Homosexuality may not be against the laws of man these days in the Western world at least, but it is contrary to the commandments of the Bible.

What is a bit perplexing is why homosexuals are so driven to invade the Church and subvert it's teachings when they are free to practice as they see fit.

In Heaven it is. God has something to say about homosexuality being a sin.

But remember, God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people's sins against them.

Call sin, sin, but don't condemn the sinner because God is not condemning them but seeking reconciliation through Christ.

To clarify, same sex attraction is disordered. Acting on same sex attraction is sinful.

Not a crime.

In the eyes of the church ... a sin?
