The Vatican has asked for gay men and women to be given a chance in
the catholic faith as they have gifts and qualities to offer the
church. This call was made in a document released yesterday October 13th by the
Vatican after a week-long Synod (Council of a church, usually convened to decide an issue of doctrine,) attended by about 200
bishops, who deliberated and came up with the resolution contained in a
document which is known by its latino name "relatio",
"Homosexuals have gifts and qualities to offer the Christian community:
are we capable of welcoming these people, guaranteeing to them a further
space in our communities? Often they wish to encounter a Church that
offers them a welcoming home," the document read..
The document also asked the Church to challenge itself to find 'a fraternal space' for
homosexuals without compromising Catholic doctrine on family and
matrimony.
Huh? Gays have gifts and qualities to offer the church - Vatican
