Vatican: Gay Unions Are ‘Sinful’

The Pope said said that the Church cannot bless gay relationships because they are ‘sinful’.

Pope Francis
The Vatican’s orthodoxy office, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, issued a formal response to a question about whether Catholic clergy have the authority to bless gay unions. The answer, contained in a two-page explanation published in seven languages and approved by Pope Francis, was “negative.”

The Vatican, in a draconian hate filled proclamation, indicated that gay unions cannot be blessed because they are ‘sinful’. The scant moral authority that the church still possesses is quickly being eroded away with a return to the homophobia of the Pope Benedict years. What is ‘sinful’ is the thousands of priests who raped children, with the blessing of the Catholic Church, for decades and decades with impunity. The countless lives destroyed by the Church will forever be a legacy it will never live down. The Holy See would be wise to promote love and abandon the evil hatred of the past.
