The Church and the West in general until a minute ago in historical terms regarded homosexuality as at best disordered, and a source of ribald humor, and at worst evil. Francis, the Lavender Mafia’s hired hand, is basically saying that no better can be expected from African savages. It is “ugly” that this man sits on the throne of Peter.

I learnt something new today. Apparently I belong to a small ideological group. Along with millions of others…😂
I’ve erased multiple comments because I keep ending up cursing the darkness.
Jesus Christ is King!
Long live Our King.
He will sort things out and His Kingdom will Never End!
Thanks be to God.
It occurs to me that Jesus was all about division; sheep and goats; white washed tombs; millstones; tossing improperly dressed folks out of a wedding banquet; setting father against son; bringing the sword. That kind of thing.
Saint Charles Lwanga would differ with Francis’ condescending nonsense.
As we recall, St. Charles Lwanga was Ugandan, and he and his Catholic companions were tortured and martyred by the homosexual king of Uganda because they reflected the king’s advances.
sigh
‘Reflected’ should read ‘rejected’. Autocorrect needs to settle down.
DJH.
What you said is true, however he is merciful, humble, forgiving, patient, meek and willing to suffer under extreme conditions, innocently, because of his love for us
How well we imitated those virtues will be on our final exam.
Unless and until he cares to explain how the idea of a poop noodle shouldn’t turn our stomachs but rather reveal to us a beauty within God’s creation, he should probably come up with something better than (to paraphrase) “this is mostly a problem with right-wing extremists, and those especially intolerant darkies”.
I wonder how the Dutch, Ukrainians and Melkites fit into his “cultural” dismissal.
“Learnt something new today. Apparently I belong to a small ideological group.”
Me too.
“White hunter… Black heart. ” Love it!
Lately, the profound badness that issues forth from the Vatican makes me think of an old union song my history teacher used to play
Which side are you on, miner?
Which side are you on?
There seems to be increasingly little room for fence sitters and seems that sheep and goats are in the process of being separated.
Whether this sorting is the final one or not remains to be seen.
Africa… the special case.
Special indeed.
Special because its love for God and neighbor surpasses a culture who’s false mercy has ushered in a stench that reaches the very throne of God.
Special case?
How I Hope All the world becomes special cases;

The Lavender Mafia be damned.
All may be invited through ecumenism but so few respond to the wedding of the Lamb.
