While admitting that 95% of the text is “an expression of common sense and decency,” they oppose the following statement: “I refrain from sweeping negative assessments of allegedly unbiblical behaviour based on sexual orientation.”
The priests emphasise that no priest who signs this would be allowed to proclaim the Bibel's and the Church’s teaching on homosexuality. However, this teaching is anyway illegal in Switzerland after a country wide February 2020 referendum accepted a muzzle law making biblical statements about homosexuality a criminal offence.
