Pope Says Gay Marriage is 'Insidious and Dangerous'

All I can presume is that when Papa Ratzi uttered the words "dangerous and insidious" he was actually looking in the mirror or looking at the members of the College of Cardinals. It would seem that a world wide conspiracy by the Church hierarchy to cover up the sexual abuse of tens of thousands of children and youth is a bigger threat to society than marriage between two individuals of the same sex who love one another. Sadly, that's not the case in the warped view of pedophile protector Papa Ratzi. The Church's refusal to accept modern knowledge about sexual orientation and its never ending obsession with all things sexual continue to make it more and more of a modern day "flat earth" cult. As I have said before, subconsciously (or maybe consciously) anti-gay religious extremists know that if the Bible's condemnation of same sex relations is wrong, then their entire artificial word begins to unravel. Thus, the jihad against gays will unfortunately continue until the Church where the Church must either change or die out. Here are some highlights from The Telegraph:
*
In a strongly worded attack, Benedict XVI insisted that marriage should be founded on the "indissoluble" marriage between a man and a woman. Addressing a huge crowd at the shrine of Fatima at the climax of his four day visit to Portugal, the 83-year-old Pope said that same sex marriage and abortion were among the "most insidious and dangerous challenges that today confront the common good."
*
The Vatican regards being homosexual as a "deviation" and an "irregularity" and the act of homosexual sex as a sin.
*
In December a leading Roman Catholic cardinal reinforced the message, saying that homosexuality was an "insult to God" and that homosexuals and transsexuals will never go to heaven. In remarks which outraged gay rights groups, Cardinal Javier Lozano Barragan, 76, claimed that people were not born homosexual, but chose to embrace homosexuality of their own free will.
*
The Pope's remarks carried particular resonance for his host country – three years ago Portugal decriminalised abortion and it is now on the verge of legalising homosexual unions. A law allowing same-sex marriage was passed by parliament in February. President Anibal Cavaco Silva, a practising Catholic, is expected to sign the bill into law by May 17, three days after the end of the papal visit. His ratification would make Portugal the sixth country in Europe to allow same-sex marriages after Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Norway.
*
The true irony will, of course, be when gays and transgender people find themselves in Heaven and Benedict and other gay-haters are shocked to find themselves in Hell for the evils they have perpetrated in the name of God.

"most insidious and dangerous challenges that today confront the common good."

Really? Not global warming, or the myriad other environmental catastrophes we are engaging in, or war, or over population, or hunger, or poverty, or, I don't know, the rampant abuse of children by a religion that shall remain nameless?

No, it's two consenting adults loving each other. Oh, the horror.
