No, they certainly should read it, sadly many do not enough or at all. As far as speaking about it, definitely but in the context of what God wrote. The Bible is very clear on homosexuality.
The Pope, Joel Osteen, or any other “clergy” that attempts to frame those words as anything but what they are is heresy. We don’t need the Pope or any other minister watering those words down and trying to fit them into our overtly PC culture today. They can argue that they are just trying to not be confrontational to draw more people in the church to hear the message.
I say if the message is wrong then they don’t need to hear it and we don’t need to spread it. I don’t care if I hurt someone’s feelings the Bible doesn’t say spread the word but only if it makes people feel good. Truth hurts and if you are a sinner, like we all are, some words needs to leave a mark.
I agree with you completely: Any teaching that contradicts Scripture must be rejected.
The Catholic Church’s teaching on marriage is drawn directly from the words of Jesus on marriage. It does not need “maturation” or “development.” It needs to be obeyed.
I am not confident that “maturation” and “development” during the coming year will mean anything other than agitation and propaganda.
