The Vatican's second-highest ranking doctrinal official on Monday forcefully branded homosexual marriage an evil. The attack by Archbishop Angelo Amato, secretary of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, was the latest in a string of speeches made by either Pope Benedict or other Vatican officials against gay rights.
In an address to chaplains, Amato said newspapers and television bulletins often seemed like "a perverse film about evil." He denounced "evils that remain almost invisible" because the media presented them as "expression of human progress." Part of this list was "parliaments of so-called civilized nations where laws contrary to the nature of the human being are being promulgated, such as the approval of marriage between people of the same sex ..."
[just one question: what would jesus do? my guess is open his arms to gays and lesbians and really try to make a positive difference in the world. lord knows, there is a lot in the world that needs help.]
