Just because the man doesn't agree that gays should marry doesn't mean that he hates them. It's getting to the bottom of the barrel when gay accusations such as this are the only thing they've got left when someone doesn't agree with them.

By 'they've' got left', I THINK you mean the 'GAY AGENDA!'

Uhhh, are you sure you are posting on the correct web site?

It seems as though you have enjoyed your stay so far.

This is not about the Pope AGREEING or NOT AGREEING with someone being gay. This is about telling people others are damned to hell for being gay.

This is about discrimination and limiting other people's rights which the church has no business interfering in in the first place! This is about prejudging others, about telling someone they've sinned against God when that is utter BULLSHIT.

Don't believe me? Look it up in the bible.

Jesus told them not to judge ANYONE.

He didn't say maybe.

He didn't say possibly.

He didn't say occasionally.

He said NOT TO.

AT ALL.

If a Pope can't figure this out, I don't expect anyone else to either. His bigoted position absolves everyone (the sheeple who won't take responsibility for their beliefs) who is Catholic of their hatred and bigotry. According to the bible, he and all that follow him will burn in hellfire.

Jesus said: ''Do unto to others as you would have others do unto you.''

If anyone mistreats someone, discriminates against them and treats others differently in any negative way, that is hatred. That is bigotry.

No one, not you, not me, and certainly not the Pope are exempt.
