Is being a homosexual on the sly and be a priest is equality?
To respect human beings is not more important than practicing Religion, that too, under coercion?
How many recorded instances of priests or even Popes being debauched are there and what has the Church done about it, even though it is against Humanity?
In the name Equality, where was the office of the Pope during Nazis, extermination of Jews?
Why do you still want the crutches of the State to promote your Faith?
Why do you refuse to accept there is a wide world out there and that it has many values as there are individuals and they have a Right to practice it?
Who are you to define the rights of individuals?
I strongly believe that Jesus would not have approved of the actions or the activities of the Popes,including the present one,if he were to be reborn, for He belongs to the world , not to a Pope or a sect.
Story:
Benedict XVI claimed that legislation introduced by Labour to end discrimination “actually violates natural law” because it stopped worshippers remaining true to their beliefs
.His strongly worded intervention in British politics comes after leaders of both the Roman Catholic Church and the Church of England clashed with Labour over its Equality Bill, which they fear will make them admit homosexuals to the priesthood or face prosecution for discriminating against them.
In an address delivered yesterday to 35 Catholic bishops from England and Wales, the Pope attacked Labour’s equality proposals. He said: “Your country is well known for its firm commitment to equality of opportunity for all members of society. Yet … the effect of some of the legislation designed to achieve this goal has been to impose unjust limitations on the freedom of religious communities to act in accordance with their beliefs.
“In some respects it actually violates the natural law upon which the equality of all human beings is grounded and by which it is guaranteed.” Harriet Harman’s Equality Bill, currently going through Parliament, contains a new, narrow definition of religious workers. It means clergy will not be allowed to opt out of the rules and so will either have to go against their teachings by employing homosexuals, or face prosecution.
