Marriage
or Not Marriage for Catholic Priests and Gays? Here Is the Question the Pope Can
Answer about Gays, But Not About Priests
By Julio Severo
The Catholic Church is facing a major
challenge as Pope
Francis has suggested approval for homosexual civil unions. The United
Nations, under the leadership of left-wing
Catholic Antonio Guterres, praised the pope’s stance on such unions.
Yet, while the Catholic Church under
Francis is advancing to make easy a kind of gay “marriage” there is no sign to
make easy marriage for priests, bishops, cardinals and popes.
It is so wrong to approve marriage to gays
as it is wrong to forbid Christian male leaders to marry women.
The Catholic Church has committed a very
big sin against God by forbidding marriage for their priests, bishops,
cardinals and popes. They should marry, because this is God’s first commandment
to man.
The Apostle Paul warned us:
“Now the Spirit expressly says that in
later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful
spirits and teachings of demons, through the insincerity of liars whose
consciences are seared, who forbid marriage…” (1 Timothy 4:1-3 ESV)
So Paul said that one of the signs of
people departing from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and
teachings of demons is exactly by forbidding marriage. The Catholic ban on marriage
for its leaders perfectly fits this.
It is abnormal for a large number of men
to remain single solely by religious votes. God never commanded such extreme
sacrifice. Pagan religions do it, with disastrous consequences — the same
consequences we see in the Catholic Church.
It is normal, and commanded by God, for
men to marry to women. In a few cases, some will not marry. But this is very,
very rare and should never be imposed as a Christian doctrine.
To forbid marriage draws “naturally” men to
unnatural problems. So when a Christian church demands abnormal things from
men, what should it expect? Normalcy?
The traditional Catholic ban on gay
“marriage” is approved by the Bible. In contrast, the traditional Catholic ban on
marriage for priests, bishops, cardinals and popes is not approved by the Bible
— unless they are homosexuals.
The
Apostle Paul, who by Catholic standards would be a pope or cardinal, said:
“Do we not have the right to take along a
believing wife, as do the other apostles and the brothers of the Lord and
Cephas?” (1 Corinthians 9:5 ESV)
He could also say today to the Catholic
Church:
“Do we not have the right to take along a
believing wife, as do the other priests, bishops, cardinals and popes?”
Yes, every Christian leader has the right
to have a believing wife.
If a priest, a bishop, a cardinal and even
the pope made a vow against marriage but later their sexual urges began to
manifest, there is no sin in marrying. They can marry and stay in their
religious posts, just as Paul said.
If a priest made a vow not to marry, but
later he wants to marry a woman, his marriage should be embraced and celebrated
as a pro-family decision, and efforts to expel him from his post should be seen
as an anti-family attack. There should be no ban for him to be promoted to bishop,
cardinal and pope.
But if he is a homosexual, he should leave
any Christian post he occupies.
The Catholic Church has some good stances
on marriage. What better way to demonstrate the Catholic stance in defense of
family than letting their priests, bishops, cardinals and popes marry women?
If marriage is a blessing, it is a curse
to forbid it. In fact, the Bible has expressly warned Christians against
forbidding marriage.
If gay “marriage” is a curse, it is a curse
to approve it.
Marriage for gays is a curse and should be
forbidden by all laws.
The Catholic Church should repeal its
unbiblical ban on marriage for priests, bishops, cardinals and popes and should
keep its ban on homosexual “marriage.”
Marriage for priests would be a blessing.
It would be a curse only if Steve Bannon is right. He
said that 90 percent of priests and cardinals in the Vatican are homosexuals.
So if priests, bishops and cardinals are mostly gay, what kind of marriage will
they choose?
If they are really men, they should not
fear marriage to women.
If Apostle Paul were alive today, he would
say that one of the signs of people departing from the faith by devoting themselves
to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons is exactly by forbidding men to
marry woman and allowing men to marry men.
