This guy really gets it:
Pope Benedict, in his first clear pronouncement on gay marriages since his election, on Monday condemned same-sex unions as fake and expressions of "anarchic freedom" that threatened the future of the family.
The Pope, who was elected in April, also condemned divorce, artificial birth control, trial marriages and free-style unions, saying all of these practices were dangerous for the family.
"Today's various forms of dissolution of marriage, free unions, trial marriages as well as the pseudo-matrimonies between people of the same sex are instead expressions of anarchic freedom which falsely tries to pass itself off as the true liberation of man," he said.

Won't be long before HIS honeymoon is over.
What do they think he is going to say, I wonder? That we are just going to give up and say "lets just be pagan, it's easier that way"?
ReplyDeleteAlthought it would be amusing (yet somewhat cruel) for Pope Benedict to admit a "dialogue" between himself and the dissenters, and at the end the ranting he can yawn and stretch and say "Sorry!" and then reaffirm 2000 years of Church teaching.
Somehow, I don't read Benedict XVI as a 'cruel' sort of guy.
ReplyDeleteWhat's surprising is that ABC News treated this as "news."
it was a joke.
