Homosexuality is "not a sin," Munich Cardinal Reinhard Marx told the anti-Catholic Stern.de (30 March).
Marx calls homosexuality "love" that shows itself "precisely in the sexual encounter [sic!]", although sin and love are opposites.
Ten years ago, Marx could not have imagined staging a homosexual service, as he did in March.
It "doesn't matter" to him that this “offends" Catholics [and God]. He feels freer to say what he "thinks" and wants to "take Church teaching further" [into the abyss].
Marx believes that God seeks communion with homosexuals. For him, "it is rather sinful to want to push others out of the Church" [for example, by means of Traditionis Custodes].
Those who [like Holy Scripture] warn homosexuals of hell have "understood nothing," Marx claims. He considers the Catechism, which with reference to the Bible refers to homosexual acts as an abomination and sin crying to heaven for vengeance, as "not set in stone."
"One is allowed to doubt what the Catechism says" [if one …More

"Homosexuality is not a sin," Cardinal Marx stresses, explaining, "I have felt freer for years to say what I think and want to take Church teaching further"

Once you grant gay unions the status of marriage, you cannot stop the normalization avalanche - which, yes, includes producing pro-gay, pro-trans programming for little kids in schools, tv, etc. - and claim to be remotely consistent in the application of rules and mores.

@Jimmy akaJaime Estrada No, Pope Francis isn't an "antipope" and you shoe-horning that into the discussion doesn't change the facts.

"He's the chief bishop of the Church."
Technically, he's the Bishop of Rome, but don't let the facts stand in your way. :D
"Jesus made the rules, I didn't."
Fact Check: Jesus didn't address homosexuality. If you feel otherwise, quote Him where He did.
Standard Jimmy tactic. Referring to Jesus, not quoting Him.

"Everything the Church fails at, including fat cardinals ratifying homosexuality, is a reflection of its leadership."
If so, you should lay the abuse scandal at the feet of JPII and Benedict XVI. Somehow, I doubt that will happen.
"If Bergoglio is the pope he needs to get held accountable for not only good, but bad."
He's accountable to God, not to the clergy or the laity. If you feel otherwise, please DO cite Canon Law where subordinate clergy can try, convict, or in any other way censure or hold "accountable" a Pope. I'll wait.
"The Church is becoming accepting of homosexuality, it's just a fact. "
…because the last 40+ years of Benedict XVI and JP II didn't let that happen, amirite? It all JUST happened in the last seven years of Francis' papacy. :P
"And the man you call pope is letting it happen. For the reasons already stated."
The man I call pope is just the lastest incompetent. The man YOU call pope, whichever sock-puppet you're running today, and his predecessor paved the way for that. But like all hypocrites, incompetency doesn't bother them, only which pope is doing it.

God addressed the question of sex outside of a valid marriage between a man and a woman for the purpose of procreation; Thou shalt not commit adultery.

Go stick it, @Jimmy aka Scott Auden :P You can't even get your stupid word-salad "Catholic criticisms" to agree with each other. A person can't be a heretic AND and apostate at the same time.
You're just THAT ignorant of the faith you criticize others for not having.More

@Mathathias Maccabeus "What number is this... 43 banned accounts this year?" This month, Matty. This month alone. Jimmy's re-joining every day now, sometimes even twice.

The Father of lies is very proud of the cardinal. He puts himself above God and calls evil good. Woe to him
Step down your Eminance.

He can "think" what he wishes. Scripture and The Church teach otherwise. @De Profundis ...because the Germans are a primary (perhaps even THE primary) source of revenue for the Catholic Church.

Why are German bishops allowed to be flaming heretics?
