According to Pope Francis Same Sex Families Are Not Conventional nor Catholic, We Argue Otherwise!
At MARPS IN UGANDA, we bring you issues that improve on your self determination. A family setting as known by the Roman Catholic Church may be constructed differently from what same sex expressing couples have in mind. Both institutions define family differently. We bring you what the Pope's pronouncement on this. We cannot deny that the word family is elastic like the words development or democracy. Germany is a democracy and so is Italy but they are both very different democracies. We could go on. South Africa is a democracy and so is Uganda, but they are very different democracies. We admit that LGBTIQQ are influencing some of the definitions now and so will it be in the future. Markets, democracies and innovations will change for the better when LGBTIQQ are given equal opportunities.
In May 2018, Pope Francis made a resounding pronouncement against abuses faced by a gay victim of sexual abuse. “[The pope] told me, ‘Juan Carlos, that you are gay does not matter. God made you like this and loves you like this and I don’t care. The pope loves you like this. You have to be happy with who you are,’” said the survivor, Juan Carlos Cruz, in an interview.
Recall that Pope Francis also said “Who am I to judge?” in July 2013, in response to a question regarding the existence of gay priests.
"It is painful to say this today. People speak of varied families, of various kinds of family," however, "the family [as] man and woman in the image of God is the only one," said Francis, according to different sources.The pope's definition of a family excludes same-sex couples, in addition to other "varied" nontraditional families like single parents.
