Just a day after his election, new Presbyterian Church Moderator sparks row by telling gay people to stop having sex

By Rebecca Black – 06 February 2014

The new leader of the largest Protestant denomination in Northern Ireland has angered the gay community just a day after his election by saying they should stay celibate.

Rev Dr Michael Barry (63) takes charge of the Presbyterian Church in June following his election as Moderator earlier on Tuesday...

..."We welcome all people into the Church, but we would have a problem with those who are involved in a gay relationship because we believe the Bible teaches that is against the word of God," he said.

"We would encourage people who are gay to live a celibate life."

I wouldn't be upset.
