The Pope has come out ..... I'd better rephrase that .... the Pope said that wanking, and other sexual practices are OK as long as they are done within the confines of marriage as blessed by the Catholic Church.
see:
Old Frank got himself in a bit of bother when he said earlier that homosexuality shouldn't be illegal but it's still a sin. You remember of course that I posted on it: HERE
Poor old Frank is twisting himself in knots here trying to defend his original statement and the silly things he said afterwards.
Pope Francis has clarified his recent comments about homosexuality and sin, saying he was merely referring to official Catholic moral teaching that teaches that any sexual act outside of marriage is a sin.
And in a note last week, Francis recalled that even that black-and-white teaching is subject to circumstances that might eliminate the sin altogether.
Francis first made the comments in an interview earlier this month with The Associated Press, in which he declared that laws criminalising homosexuality were “unjust” and that “being homosexual is not a crime.”
“When I said it is a sin, I was simply referring to Catholic moral teaching, which says that every sexual act outside of marriage is a sin,” Francis wrote in Spanish, underlining the final phrase.
No doubt he'll backtrack on his revised statement as well because he is suggesting that as long as a Catholic marriage is involved the whole 'textbook' of sexuality can be dipped into (sorry about that phrase). Trump and his golden showers, USA evangelists threesomes, lots of 'whoops-a-daisy and much, much more will go on with the Church's blessing. That should bring them back to Mass on Sindays ... sorry ... Sundays.
Hard to comment on this one without making wanking jokes.
ReplyDeleteFor example, if I had said, "Good news for TC." I didn't say that, that was just an example.
ReplyDeleteI’m not married so I guess that makes me a sinner. For example.
DeleteGood point, sinner.
