Ahead of synod, prominent prelates publish on ‘LGBTQ issues’

[RileyG]

Well, it COULD be scandalous, but it isn't automatically scandalous.

Yup.

 

[Michie]

I didn't say anything about blessing couples vs. blessing individuals.

Read back through the thread… post 13…

Yeah, I'm reading it. I don't see anything about gay marriages or blessing gay marriages.

 

[KathrynAragon]

If that's all you said, then of course. That is boring old news.

I totally agree.

 

[Michie]

Alright then. You have no proof. We get it.

I
ve given a Catholic Review source and a Reuter's source and a Wikipedia source, not sure how much proof you want but it hasn"t hit catechisms yet

That’s not proof of what you originally claimed. Show us from the teachings of the Church where this has been approved and going on for years as you claimed. Problem is, there is none. Wiki and Reuters are not teachings of the Church or reliable when it comes to what the Church teaches and believes.

How about a document issued from the Vatican? Do you have one of those?

We could even go with a Bible reference. Oh wait.

Careful. Some people like to claim David and Jonathan were lovers....or Naomi or Ruth (they were daughter in law and mother in law, yuck) or Jesus "allegedly" blessed a gay couple, yada yada yada

I was referring to the actual Bible and not somebody's malarial dreams about what they hope to persuade us is in the Bible. So yada yada yada to them.

Proper interpretation is always key.

What passes for academic rigor these days is anything but that.

Yup. They twist scripture to support their sin. Sad, really.

Amen!

Maybe this will do:

Declaration Fiducia Supplicans On the Pastoral Meaning of Blessings (18 December 2023)

Declaration Fiducia Supplicans On the Pastoral Meaning of Blessings (18 December 2023)

www.vatican.va

Of course, anyone really interested could google this as well. Fiducia Supplicans is the name of the document.

 

[Michie]

No, but it is all over the news.

You know the secular news twists anything that concerns the Roman Catholic Church don’t you?

Why don’t you investigate the source? That’s would be the Church itself.

See above post. Sorry, been out of pocket a few days.

Same answer. Get your news from the Church or Catholic news sources. Although I will warn you there are independent Catholic sources that completely go against Church teaching you have to be aware of. Best bet? Consult your priest, your Catechism, the Church.

This is the source you stated in the other thread was superfluous… what do you think it says? These documents are not considered infallible teaching of the Church either.
