A article from Reuters quotes the Pope as stating that gay marriages are part of “a new ideology of evil.”
How does one respond to these remarks? Obviously, the Catholic church, via the Holy See, considers gay marriages to be akin to the acceptance of Homosexuality. Homosexuality, and more generally any form of Sexual intamacy where procreation is not the intended outcome, is considered to be sinful lust. Needless to say, not everyone agrees.
