Is he right? He has a strong shot at being the next Pope?
>In April 2012, the election of a young gay man who was living in a registered same-sex partnership to a pastoral council in Vienna was vetoed by the parish priest. After meeting with the couple, Schönborn reinstated him. He later advised in a homily that priests must apply a pastoral approach that is "neither rigorist nor lax" in counselling Catholics who "don't live according to [God's] master plan".[38]
>Schönborn is a member of the Elijah Interfaith Institute Board of World Religious Leaders.[31]
>Elijah Interfaith Institute is a nonprofit, international, interfaith organization which was founded by Rabbi Alon Goshen-Gottstein in 1997.

No he's a liberal modernist heretic. I hope he'll never become pope and likely will never be. The liberal cardinals who elected pope Francis regret doing that because he is too liberal for their liking. So shornborn will likely never become pope.

The Catholic Church knows the "muh traditions" defense is their best means of staving off criticism. If they embrace gays and liberalism they lose all legitimacy.
seems like a good time to ask this
who was the disciple jesus greek loved?
>>3267878
Yes
Christians, Catholics especially, really need to get over their repressed sexuality. Humans like to fuck, 99% of humans have completely natural sexual urges. Opening up things like gay marriage, contraception, a proper sexual education, masturbation, and even the possibility of letting religious figures get married and start families, is the logical path forward. Abstinence education is a meme, virgin purity is a meme.

John
He also spent a night with a youth wearing nothing but a linen cloth teaching him the "mystery of the kingdom of God"

I'm a cradle catholic and I've come to this conclusion as well. Keep all the other elements of the Church, just get rid of sex superstition. It had a function when sex outside of marriage was potentially dangerous because it could lead to bastard children and disease, but now it does little harm so it's a venial sin at best.

There's nothing more human than going against primitive urges, the curse of life, and serving a being we can only guess exists.
Even if there were a way to prove god doesn't exists, humans would keep believing, as there is nothing stronger than human faith.

Was being gay part of your plan? If I pull out, will you die?

I hope this is bait. Pope Pius X is rolling in his grave.

This is why it should be forbidden to force kids into religions before having consciousness over what they are. You think being a catholic is doing the routine you were taught, like most hypocrites in the world.
Not only does sex and promiscuity harm your own focus, but it affects the will of other people around you, people who you don't give a fuck about, and so you'll never understand what i mean, you lack the compassion for it. Promiscuity induces the sin of envy in innocent men.

Controlling would be a better term than repressing.
