The Catholic Church has Decided They Can't Bless Gay Unions... And I'm Mad

And if this isn’t me saying that you need to stay together no matter what. It’s me saying that if you are no longer willing, you should no longer be married

So far I don’t think anyways bashed God or Jesus or any entities of the Abrahamic pantheon :eyes: but yes good thing to recall this isn’t an excuse to bash them at all.
As far as my opinion goes I love Christ and God I just don’t like a lukewarm or hateful Christians :smiley: :+1:

Raised in an Evangelical church which is already :sparkles: y i k e s :sparkles: I don’t consider myself apart of any denomination currently but I was looking in Catholcism and well – quite frankly that’s probably not going to continue :smiley: :+1:

Personally, I’m just a Christian disillusioned by the institution claiming to uphold and protect my beliefs

In all honesty it’s good to question things and disagree with things like this and not blindly follow it, it’s supposed to be a religion, not a cult :joy:

Tell me about it. I am SERIOUSLY considering Anglicanism: basically Catholicism, but the English version with the Queen as the head of the Church. They allow gay marriage and female priests, so I’ll have a look into it :frowning: It’s kinda sad though

They don’t fully accept the Apocryphal books, but they don’t ignore them like many Protestant churches do, so I guess that’s ok?

Still trying to find a way to come to terms with the Queen as the head, though, considering I’m a socialist XD

I saw this when I was in school yesterday and I was shocked to say the least. Me being an atheist who does support religious people, I was extremely disappointed when I saw this, I thought God was supposed to love everyone regardless? Why does it matter what genders people are into? :eyes: W H Y D O E S I T M A T T E R?

Honestly it makes me wonder if being religious is worth it or not if all it does it spread hatred. Didn’t the bible say “love thy neighbour?” and treat others as you wish to be treated?” :woman_shrugging:

But homophobics be like but we are entitled to upload our fossil views and because of our views we have the right to be homophobic

And if you actually know how to read it right, it doesn’t condemn it at all, because actually out homosexuals were such a small minority back then that it probably wasn’t even thought of :grinning:

You have to ask how did Christianity begin? Who made the rules? Remember when these rules were made, people had a different mindset back then.

Religions need to make an effort adapt to the modern culture and stop living in traditions which have proved to be nothing but destructive. Just like religions were created, they can be adapted too.

Doesn’t help that Christians will quite literally try and tell others that they’re just cherry picking the Bible to conform to their own lives yet they’ll wear silk, eat meat, shave their hair, change their appearrence as if that’s not exactly what they’re doing.

I thought Pop Francis welcomed the gays

I am a Christian/catholic but sometimes I can’t stand other Catholics, they are such hypocrites.

Also Jesus once blessed a gay couple in the bible.

It was all about rape and pedophilia, because there was a lot of going around.

Not all they are still cultural religions out there.

So far luckily no one has bashed the father.

This. If God loves everyone, he wouldn’t care who you love.

Samesies. God is my salvation, other Christians who act like that are annoying~

Also People like picking and choosing from the bible. The bible says not to eat sea-food, yet I see many people eating sea food that are Christians (by sea food I mean food with scales it in/crabs has no scales so it’s ok to eat)

You shall not work on a saturday, yet people work on Saturdays (even the pope, and the people of the parish) Yet the Church doesn’t condemn them.
