Nonsense. Romans 1:18-32. Do “priests” not read the Bible?
Apparently he doesn’t co.prehend the catechism either.
This priest apparently doesn’t read the Bible. Doesn’t read the Catechism, either. And is in contradiction against 20 centuries of clear, consistent Catholic moral doctrine.
If he were a student in my RCIA class (adult wannabe converts) I would not be able to approve his being received into the Catholic Church.
And if his bishop allows him to get away with this? I’d turn thumbs down on the bishop as well.
Why? Because they reject the authority of God as expressed in Catholic faith and morals.
It certainly doesn't seem so does it?
Not only Romans but 1 Corinthians 6 and 1Tomothy 1. Further, I would say in both Matthew and Mark Jesus condemns it when he condemns “pornea” - a Greek word which means any wrongful sexual conduct. In the Jewish culture Jesus lived in this would certainly include sex outside marriage, homosexual conduct and beastiality. Finally, with regard to marriage, Jesus definitively pronounces it as between a man and a woman in Matthew 19.
Thank You! Was just looking for that reference and was going to quote it, specifically Romans 1:26-27
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.
In that time, the due penalty was DEATH. Yes, that was the Old Testament for those who don't know better.
