This, however, does not qualify for that. So, shame on the Bishop. It is one thing to uphold the moral teaching of the Church, but quite another to use such falsehoods as a scare tactic to incite fear and hatred.<br /><br />Even if his ridiculous assertion that 92% of homosexual persons were HIV/AIDS patients were true, would that not call for compassion? Many diseases can be contracted through sexual contact; that is no reason to try and use them as a weapon against those who are afflicted with them. Real Christians, on the contrary, reach out to them, speaking the truth in love, and seeking to lessen their suffering or stigma, praying for them and urging them to "sin no more."<br /><br />Schema-monk TheodoreAbbot Theodorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09033976541107844341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-73042886598650075.post-54664967592295857532014-06-14T08:36:20.600-05:002014-06-14T08:36:20.600-05:00Apparently the Moldovan gays don't believe in ...Apparently the Moldovan gays don't believe in freedom of speech.
