LGBT Jesuit Priest Says Bible May Be Wrong About Homosexuality
Breitbart ^ | 10/24/2019 | Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

LGBT promoter Father James Martin has questioned whether the biblical condemnation of homosexual behavior may be mistaken, referencing the example of slavery.

Where the Bible mentions [same-sex sexual] behavior at all, it clearly condemns it. I freely grant that. The issue is precisely whether the biblical judgment is correct. The Bible sanctioned slavery as well and nowhere attacked it as unjust.

I guess he thinks God made a mistake.

On the other hand, it seems many homosexuals blame God for "making" them that way and then think that it must mean He couldn't condemn them for acting on their natural tendencies. Wouldn't that rationalization work for pedophiles or serial killers, too?

From the article:

According to one Jesuit priest, some 50 percent of the members of the Jesuit order are homosexuals.

“Roughly half of the Society under the age of fifty shuffles on the borderline between declared and undeclared gayness,” wrote Father Paul Shaughnessy, S.J., in a 2002 essay in the Weekly Standard, titled, “Are the Jesuits Catholic?”

Oh those Jesuits...

Sure, Sodomite (I presume that is what the 'LGBT' prefix meant) Jesuit declares Bible is wrong in condemning sodomy and homosexuality. Tell it to the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Faggot Screw him. The Bible is clear
You want promiscuity ? AIDS ? Syphhils ?
Being a gay man in this world is a death sentence
I live in San Francisco I’ve seen it all for four decades now
Female homosexuality is totally completely different. It’s NOT about sex at all

The lord teaches us that human relations are just that. RELATIONS

HOW YOU CHOOSE TO INTERACT WITH YOUR FELLOW HUMAN BRINGS WILL RENDER YOUR FINAL JUDGEMENT TO HIM

mark my words carefully

Sodomite may be wrong about pushing homofascism and mocking biblical teaching

This priest does not understand spiritual growth of the soul.

Also, attached spirits are real. What happens when the attached spirit is the opposite gender?

A "priest?" By what parameter? This idiot is nothing more than a denier of Christ and his vows. Romans I 18-32: 18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles. 24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. 26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. 28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Far too many ministers and study bibles claim S&G actually got zotted for showing a “lack of hospitality”.

Yah.

Right.

Homosexuals have said SMASH MONOGAMY for half a century

Doesn’t sound like God’s plan to me

You can pay to be “ordained” online.

So there is that.

Fact check: 50% was probably a low estimate even in 2002... at least in some regions. Of the Jesuits I know on the West Coast who entered after circa 1975, I’d put the gay percentage at around 80%. Of the men who entered, say, before 1965, I’d put the number at around 15%. They fell off the cliff pretty badly after Vatican II.

His understanding of scripture about slavery is almost as poor as his understanding of scripture about homosexual acts Not quite vbut almost. I suggest he sign up for a good course in Bible.

I have no doubt that James Martin is a practicing homosexual.

His skewed and misleading writings about homosexuals in the church, and then his passive-aggressive replies when challenged also make him extremely annoying.
