VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope Benedict said on Monday that saving humanity from homosexual or transsexual behavior was just as important as saving the rainforest from destruction.

[needsum]

thats because he's grasping at straws for anything he can do to generate interest for his dying religion. . .

The Pope . . . I'm sure that if Jesus were alive and capable of showing rage, he'd bitch slap that old faggot the first chance he got for how Catholicism is disrespecting what he was trying to teach the world.

The the Pope needs to take off them dresses and start acting like a man.

It will be 100's of years from now before any Pope of the Catholic church will ever accept any type of sexuality outside of these 2 choices:

1. Complete celibacy... as supposedly practiced by priests and nuns.
2. Heterosexuality btwn 1 man & 1 woman, inside of marriage, only.

It's all a sham that involves putting blinders on and singing lalalala very loudly. As mentioned in the comments above, the church is decaying and dying.

[10th letter]

arent these the same fuckers who told us the earth was flat and all about alchemy? cant we just kill these assholes already

[hwbs]

does anyone really care about the catholic church, lmfao....now promptly hand over 10 percent of your income like most churches ask...there is a church in my town that requires to see your tax forms to make sure u are giving your share....shit is insane...

[arnie666]

Bit rich coming from the church of child fuckers. Personally I think a bunch of poofs and ladyboys are far less damaging to the world than a religious organisation that at the very least swept child molesting beasts under the carpet .Wonder what God or Jesus thinks about that?

I would say to the pope, put your own house in order first son before going after people for their lifestyles and gender choices.

[Solitary Brother]

This is why gays and trannies get killed.
This guy say this and then loose screws out there go and run with and assume its ok to kill these people.
Whats so sad is many of you claim to be religious.
WHY?

This is why I keep saying organized religion has to be banned. It does nothing but promote hatred and discrimination and causes poverty, genocide, war and terrorism. If you want to believe in God, fine, but all organized religion should be shut down, especially Islam and Christianity. They have done nothing but cause problems all throughout history.

[Solitary Brother]

This guy...the POPE is the number 1 ranked religious guy in the world and when he says stuff like this you can rest assured innocent people will be hurt by it.
And yet ALL I hear(just this saturday in fact) is that religious people are persecuted.

to be truthful, it should read this way:

"religious people are not persecuted enough" lmao

Would you expect anything else from someone who was in HJ?

[DL_NL]

The pope should really start focusing on the stuff that matters, instead of imposing his prehistoric notions on the world. Idiot.

I somehow feel that today's Get Fuzzy comic strip is somehow appropriate for this thread...

I guess we're doing something right!

fucking kids is ok, but not adults of the same sex.

The Pope must die, cause he's a CUNT!

So you would fight intolerance with more intolerance?

Intolerance of what??? Carrying on 2000+ years of crazy ideas that can be basically boiled down to a few madmen who said they heard voices in their head?

Pope puts stress on 'gay threat'

Pope Benedict XVI has said that saving humanity from homosexual or transsexual behaviour is just as important as saving the rainforest from destruction.

He explained that defending God's creation is not limited to saving the environment, but also protecting man from self-destruction.

The pope was delivering his end-of-year address to senior Vatican staff.

His words, later released to the media, emphasised his total rejection of gender theory.

Pope Benedict XVI warned that gender theory blurs the distinction between male and female and could thus lead to the "self-destruction" of the human race.

Gender theory

Gender theory explores sexual orientation, the roles assigned by society to individuals according to their gender, and how people perceive their biological identity.

Gay and transsexual groups, particularly in the United States, promote it as a key to understanding and tolerance, but the pope disagreed.

When the Roman Catholic Church defends God's Creation, "it does not only defend the earth, water and the air... but (it) also protects man from his own destruction," the pope said.

"If tropical forests deserve our protection, humankind... deserves it no less," the 81-year-old pontiff said, calling for "an ecology of the human being."

It is not "outmoded metaphysics" to urge respect for the "nature of the human being as man and woman," he told scores of prelates gathered in the Vatican's sumptuous Clementine Hall.

The Catholic Church opposes gay marriage. It teaches that while homosexuality is not sinful, homosexual acts are.

The pope uses his traditional end-of-year speech to offer his Christmas greetings and say a few words about what he considers the important issues of the day.

This year, Pope Benedict also deplored the tendency to depict the Catholic church's World Youth Day, which he attended in Sydney earlier this year, as mere spectacle.

He stressed that the event should not be considered a "variant of modern youth culture, as a kind of ecclesiastical rock festival with the Pope as the star," but as the fruition of a "long exterior and interior path".

USA (Rooters) - Tarissa said on Monday night that saving humanity from archaic religious beliefs about the behavior of of God's children, whether it is heterosexual, homosexual or transsexual is just as important as saving the rain forest from destruction and stopping global warming. Damn it's cold outside.

After the speech he hoisted a young altar boy up onto his shoulders to place the Star on top of the Christmas tree. Upon seeing this the bishops and other altar boys followed suit and the annual Holiday chickenfights began.

I said nothing about banning religion itself. If you wish to believe in God and practice your beliefs, etc. Go ahead. But ORGANIZED RELIGION, the Catholic Church for example, should be shut down and banned. These "official" organizations do nothing but promote hatred and war. You don't need to go to church and listen to some idiot spout hatred every Sunday to be a good Christian. Sit at home and read the bible instead of listening to some guy's views for an hour. The majority of Catholics have never even read the bible and many do not even own one. They simply get all their information from their Sunday gatherings from the priest, not that they do much anyway. They sit there and do some retard ritual, sing the names of the saints, listen to a short speech and go home. Organized religion is nothing but a cancer that is holding back society from gaining world peace. Practice religion on your own time in your own home and be a good person. There is no need to donate your money to an organization that spews hatred and discrimination and promotes war and terrorism. And that is just the Catholic Church. All these other churches and religions cause just as many problems like Islam. Or really good example of why organized religion should be banned, look at the Westboro Baptist Church (God Hates Fags).

You can't fight intolerance with tolerance. If your child calls someone a name, you smack them. You don't let them keep doing it.

[lysergicbliss]

The saddest part of it all is knowing that millions of people still believe in the Church and their histories

Being the designated "Ned", as in Ned Beatty from Deliverance, looks rather painful not to mention a good way to catch diseases straight people, by in large, don't get.

California is usually a place where trends start and I hope PROP 8 sweeps across the country.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

I assume that's a remark on both the size of your intelligence quotient and your penis. You do realize, don't you, that worldwide HIV infects far more straight people than gay? But you needn't worry, because the chances of getting a STD from any sort of sexual encounter is proportional to the area of the exposed surface.

What a crock of shit! Who you kidding, francis? Besides, you're about as straight as Liberace's handbag! Why don't you just come out of the closet like those courageous log-cabin republicans? Don't be a spineless jellyfish forever...

I couldn't agree more with these views.
