While they’re at it, why don’t they change the Bible, too? /s

That’s right. If it’s just too darn hard to refrain from a sin then it must not be a sin. Well, don’t think God and Catholic dogma are going to get along on sexuality. (My bet is on God.)

Hey, there’s this guy who lives near me, and I find him really annoying. I can murder him, right? I mean, there’s nothing really wrong with that. At least, in my opinion. I can do it, because I just really want to.

Bätzing is a frankenbishop: consecrated in 2016.

Bergoglio is creating a homo-”church” in his own image.

Asked if same-sex relationships were permissible, the German prelate replied: “Yes, it’s OK if it’s done in fidelity and responsibility. It doesn’t affect the relationship with God.”

One question: Why?

In the case of heterosexual couples, the answer would be: Because God ordained the institution of marriage for the purpose procreation - the implication being that an intact family is the arrangement most conducive to raising children.

But in the case of homosexuals? What possible justification can there be for denying them the right to switch partners as often as they like - or to maintain multiple "relationships" simultaneously? They aren't procreating, so...

And as far as it "not affecting their relationship with God": What about my having sexual relations with my dead cat? I can affirm that it's "done in fidelity and responsibility," so the good prelate ought to have no objections, nicht wahr?

Regards,
