Pope Francis says, ...

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis criticized laws that criminalize homosexuality as “unjust,” saying God loves all his children just as they are and called on Catholic bishops who support the laws to welcome LGBTQ people into the church.  Being homosexual isn’t a crime,” Francis said during an exclusive interview Tuesday with The Associated Press.

So where does that leave 3020?  A blasphemer who's going to burn in H*ll, that's where.

I know that homosexuality was considered a mental disorder until political pressure rather than science intervened.  I have never felt mentally aberrant people should be penalized any more than penalizing a person with a broken leg or other body part.

I don't believe that accepting their behavior as normal makes any kind of sense nor do I believe that they should be allowed religious marriage or religious profession claiming that they aren't sinners or that their life is normal.  We should accept them as sinners if they wish to enter church and worship but to pretend that God (Christian God) finds them normal is incorrect. 

To those who claim Jesus never discussed the subject, I recommend reading the Bible and realizing that Jesus TAUGHT from the old Testament.  In that marriage is discussed as is the immorality of homosexuality.

Also said eating shellfish was taboo Kurt.  Sorry that you will end up in hell for eating shrimp.  Bummer for you.   

Gay couples can help with reducing abortion.   A child being raised with love and support is vital, gay couples have a lot of love to give to a parent less child.

I think you, like every left wing anti Christian, tries to pretend that moral law is ceremonial law.

Do you not see that whatever goes into a person from outside cannot defile him, since it enters not his heart but his stomach, and is expelled?’ (Thus he declared all foods clean)”

Do you not remember that Jesus wants us to love everyone, not just those that are very religious?

Where have I ever said homosexuality should be a crime? Barack Obama on the other hand sent pallets of cash to a country that routinely throws gays from the roof tops.

"to pretend that God (Christian God) finds them normal is incorrect. "

That depends which of the many 'christian' gods you are talking about because some apparently do accept them and even conduct religious services to marry same sex couples

Some people just believe boys can be girls or girls can be boys.
