Pope Francis makes pronouncements that are murky and unclear. They can be interpreted in many ways.
The MSM then proclaims that Pope Francis is courageous and forward thinking and is welcoming homosexuals. The Vatican allows and possibly encourages this reporting. They refuse to disagree in any way.
Bishops and Cardinals are forced do defend church teaching and are then labelled backward and conservative.
Again the Vatican does not defend them.
The leading proponent of encouraging homosexualithy within the Catholic church says that African and Asian Bishops should not be listened to. He then lies and denies he said it. The audiotape is released proving he said precisely that. No action is taken.
A good and holy man, Cardinal Burke, is demoted and falsely called a critic of Pope Francis.
All of this drama and deceit occurred at an event called the Synod on the Family. Throughout this event there was no support or encouragement offered to the millions of faithful Catholic families.
Now the MSM is angry because homosexual activity is still sinful despite the words of Pope Francis.
Pope Francis needs to stand up and deliver clear, concise and unambiguous pronouncements on the need to support Catholic families and the need to condemn the sinfulness of homosexuality.
Just thought you might find this interesting.
Sodomy is a sin.
Next question.
We’re all sinners Tinkerbell.
Get over it.
It is interesting that people want the rules of their religion changed to suit them. Religion is about conforming and obeying God’s law, not altering the law to suit you.
I know some reform Jews who have a lesbian rabbi leading their congregation. Talk about throwing out the rule book.
Of course the church welcomes you if your a sinner:
Luke 5:32 For I calleth not the righteous but the sinners to repentance.
Luke 15:7 ...more joy in heaven if one sinner repenteth...
Pope Francis sucks and so do homos.
Time to start sending missionaries to Rome to distribute Bibles?
“I am still bound for hell”
Did he think the bishops would change that. haha
Sadly, he’s still going to Hell no matter what Rome says.
“Think of the bishops we will meet there ”
Yes, think of Dolan and Kasper
"Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God." - 1 Corinthians 6:9,10
Please with the title.
So ignorant
Th Catholic Church is not a democratic institution
The theologians look at God’s Word and tell the faithful what they would do to be happy healthy and holy ( aiming for heaven) according to the Word
They don’t tell God what rules to make up and to get with it
That’s pride.
And anyone that wants to follow can and anyone that doesn’t want to follow doesn’t have to
To say something isn’t a sin that is a sin is just making up another church. And God gives us free will to do that too
When people don’t like the church they are free to leave
That’s all
Acting on it is SINFUL....period.
One possible way to avoid this outcome would be to stop having sex with men.
“Your Holiness, I could go to Hell for doing this.”
“Well, don’t do that.”
True. No pronouncements can save you. Prayer, repentance, and the Grace of God can.
Ezekiel 18:30b-32 Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.
Frances has no intention of doing that. Frances and Obola are peas in a pod. Their agenda is the same.
And I spelled "Frances" that way on purpose.
It's not God sending them to hell. . .it's not because we say it's "sin".. ..it is ONLY because it violates the laws of nature (and of nature's God) which were put in place so that we could find the surest path to lasting happiness.
The church does not decide who goes to hell.
