Head of Catholic Church in Kenya Defies Pope's Order

[Wolseley]

Another Protestant who hasn't read the document through, apparently.

The Archbishop of Nairobi, Reverend Philip Anyolo, has publicly defied Pope Francis’ recent move to allow the Roman Catholic Church to bless same-sex couples.

“All Clergy residing and ministering in the Archdiocese of Nairobi are prohibited from blessing irregular relationships, unions, or same-sex couples,” he said.

“Any form of blessing of same-sex unions and activities would go against God’s word, the teachings of the Church, the African cultural traditions, the laws of our nations, and scandalous to the faithful,” he said.

According to Archbishop Anyolo’s blessings for same-sex couples would be perceived as condoning sin, which the Church cannot do in good conscience.

That's pretty gutsy of Reverend Philip Anyolo.

Respect for that!

Wait, so he's not interpreting the document in a disingenuous way so as to go along with the world? Protestant!!!

The Bishop must be a Bible thumper because he follows the Bible.
