Does Belgium get money for butts in the seat like Germany does???I know why Germany wants to include everybody...More money...
I am not Roman Catholic but I agree that a ‘same sex’ couple should not be ‘blessed’. Prayed for, to see things through Jesus’ eyes? YES! The Old Testament calls homosexuality an abomination and calls for marriage to be between a man and a woman, and Jesus never referenced, nor corrected any part of the OT.
Should ‘members’ of the ‘LGBTQ’ ‘community’ be treated poorly because of their sexual orientation? NO. Again, prayed for. Might someone be born that way? Perhaps, but people are born with all kinds of physical, mental and emotional disabilities. Homosexuality is just their ‘cross to bear’.
Lust, especially sexual lust, be it normal or homosexual in nature, is a sin. It is not that ‘being homosexual’ is a sin, it is the lust, and any actions taken to fulfill such lust, THAT is the sin, as is ANY lust (except lasting after a closer relationship with Jesus)!
It’s not the purpose of a church to fill its pews.It is to those who make a living that way.
Belgians are better known for their consumption of “patates frites and mayonnaise”. I still remember them praying the Angeles at noon.
let them go. the Church is far better off with its enemies on the outside instead of inside. they can do less damage from outside, just ask many European countries (and now, alas!) USA .. about Muslim terrorist murder gangsters outside versus inside.
they can do, and are doing, a lot more damage from inside. this is why they invade, immigrate and sneak in, to begin with. it is very similar with the Church.
Obviously, the CDF hasn’t read the Bible.
good riddance
It appears that Bishop Bonny may need to lead the exodus of those that believe what he seems to believe.
Well, at least they will leave when they see what they think is wrong, unlike those who see what they have always been taught is wrong and put up with it.
Ditto.... sorry
Remind me again what Jesus taught in the synagogue? Did He use a book, a scroll or something like that? Does anyone know? People act like Jesus never opened the Torah and taught from the Law and the Prophets... I think Leviticus 18 is an important aspect of the teachings of the Christ of the Bible! A pro-sodomy minister is an abomination to the Living God. Sodomic unions are not to be “blessed” by anyone who professes the Living God as their Savior.
