The Church's teaching on homosexuality must be "changed,” presiding German bishop Georg Bätzing told DeutschlandFunk.de (May 20).
He believes that “homosexuals living in relationships" should not be "discriminated" but be considered "an opportunity that is treated with respect.”
Bätzing has not yet performed a homosexual “blessing,” but he defends it: “The practice exists, and I will not discipline anyone who performs a blessing.” In real life, God calls practiced homosexuality an abomination (Sacred Scripture).
Besides, Bätzing is fighting for women priests but knows from several conversations that Francis decidedly holds a different position. He understands that even a pope cannot completely turn the Church around, “He does what he can.”
Given the “diverse situation” of the worldwide church, Bätzing says that “unity is in some ways a fiction.” He claims that cultural diversity is for Francis synodality.

Everyone Must be treated with respect and dignity. BUT there is objective and absolute right and wrong, sin and virtue. The Bible and the Church through the ages teach that the homosexual ACT is intrinsically disorder. THAT IS AN ABSOLUTE THAT CANNOT BE CHANGED. The modernists can say and do as they please, but the Faith stands firm, ABSOLUTELY

The bishop spits into the face of Christ. Christ in His love, endures it. For now. Tremble, bishop!
