GAYS BARRED FROM HEAVEN
A leading cardinal in the Vatican has said that “Transsexuals and homosexuals will never enter the kingdom of heaven”.
Catholic cardinal Javier Lozano Barragan made the statement while speaking to news agency Ansa, citing Saint Paul’s epistle to the Romans which refers to “men committing indecent acts with other men.”
Contrary to current scientific evidence, he further claimed that “People are not born homosexual, they become homosexual, for different reasons: education issues or because they did not develop their own identity during adolescence.”
He added that, “It may not be their fault, but acting against nature and the dignity of the human body is an insult to God.”
Despite his blatant homophobia, Barragan at least stated that while homosexuality is “a sin” this “does not justify any form of discrimination. God alone has the right to judge. We on earth cannot condemn, and as human beings we all have the same rights.”
The Catholic Church has waged an international campaign to eradicate gay priests from its ranks, as well as actively opposing any form of same-sex marriage recognition around the world.
In 2008, Pope Benedict XVI described homosexuality as a “tendency” towards an “intrinsic moral evil”, and compared the “threat” of homosexuality to the destruction of the rainforests.
….. What a freaking hypocrit!! He says only God alone can judge but what the hell is he doing?! Judging!!! And who the effing hell made him the gate-keeper to Heaven?!
I’ll get into heaven based on HOW I’ve lived my life and NOT who I’ve spent the rest of my life with (regardless of gender).
Someone should slap him and tell him to catch a wake up. His antiquated views (and antiquated church) don’t belong in a modern society that is slowly waking up to the lies told by the church!
Gmpf!. Well, if heaven is going to be full of the likes of him, who’d want to go anyway?
Funny how, after centuries, the Roman Catholic church still tries to use fear to control the world. If you don’t do as we say, and live as we say and think as we say…TO HELL WITH YA!! Hehehe, what a joke
Scary thing is how many people today still fall for this crap..
Heaven. “I’ll get into heaven based on HOW I’ve lived my life and NOT who I’ve spent the rest of my life with (regardless of gender).”
Alas, Madame, you’re only partly right. While the way you live your life undoubtedly plays a role in where you end up after passing away, you’ll only enter the gates of heaven if you had a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, accepting Him as your personal Saviour.
If you see a house you love and knock on the door, telling the owner that he should allow you to live there because you’re a good person, he’ll probably say ‘no way’. He doesn’t know you. It’s the same with heaven: if you don’t have a personal relationship with God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, why should He let you live in heaven just because you’re a good person and lived a proper life?
….. I’m not a Christian, C…does that mean I am not going to heaven. Open your mind a little and realise that faith takes different forms and is different for everyone. Just because someone doesn’t have a “personal relationship” with Jesus (whatever that is anyway) doesn’t mean they won’t reach heaven. This is YOUR belief, YOUR frame of reference…let’s try and not impose that on others by respecting that we all have our own beliefs which we are entiled to (unless you are Cardinal Javier Lozano Barragan in which case you are not and should get some kind of lobotomy 😛 )
C….. I never said I didn’t have a personal relationship with God. Isn’t that typical Christian behaviour; judging before thinking.
I tell you what, IF there is a Heaven I’ll ask God one day. If He is so supposed to be all loving, all forgiving then He’ll accept me no matter what!!!
Oh, and I’ll update my FB status to say Madame X is now in a relationship with Jesus. If it’s on FB then He has to accept that has proof!
>>>>. Oh, I get it now!! So one gets into heaven not because they led a good life but it’s all down to relationship. So then if murderers, rapists, child-molestors, and the myriad of other criminals out there have a relationship with God then they will get into heaven? Then what they heck am I doing trying to live an honest life when I can just unleash my inner demon and burn half the world! But as long as I have that special relationship then I’m A-OKAY!! Yeah, I can see how that makes sense (NOT!!!)
what heaven?. I don’t envy those who’ll make it to heaven if it’s going to be full of people like him…
Here we go again…heaven’s gonna be pretty empty…huh?
he is so sick in the head shame poor papy. what the hell does he think he is .does he think he is God now or what he must just get a fucking life and grow up .
thats why i hate being christion so i am not going that way .
we gays will go to heaven coz i say so coz God loves every one in life good or bad and he does not Jugde like people do now days .
I wonder if this asshole,,, has taken stock of his flock…. I don’t think I have ever heard of so many pedeophiles in the gay community as there are in the catholic church…. makes one wonder whose side God is on… I know he is on mine…
what ever…. This is getting as old as the pope. We GLBT people get it, we are going to hell! Turn or burn and all that other crap. At least hell will be well decorated and everyone there will be fabulous!
idiot….so has he arranged a special place for all his priests that have messed around with their alter boys…seems he has a direct line to heaven.
grasping at straws. You would also say stupid things and wage petty pointless wars if your lifestyle, occupation and belief system was fast becoming archaic and the brunt of modern day jokes…
Catholic Church makes me Angry!. The Catholic church is one of the most prejudiced institutions most of humanity has had the displeasure of ever meeting. In the 4th century, they “married” politics and forced the Roman Empire’s conversion to christianity. In the middle ages, they tortured and killed those who refused to convert to their ideas (Spanish and Portuguese Inquisition). Many muslims, jews and insubordinate christians were tortured, burned alive and killed. Some popes, bishops and priests lived with their mistresses and used young boys for their own sexual pleasure. Most of these facts were hidden, but a few have made it to the history books.
In the last few decades, the world has turned against the hierarchy for protecting paedophiles in its ranks. It has put a spin on the whole issue by diverting everyone’s attention to homosexuals within its ranks. This pope has begun actively seeking out the gay members of its clergy and employees in order to exclude them. Candidates to the priesthood now have to undergo psychological testing to make sure they are not homosexual.
All this makes me angry! Fuck christianity! Fuck the Catholic Church! They will one day disappear just like every other crazy ideology does.
I wonder if this cardinal would have sided with Hitler’s policy of “solving” the homosexual problem?
hi there ramos. hi there
i must say i do agree on that i hate being Christion thats why i hate it coz who ever they see they always jurdge no matter what it takes .

Holy crap. I’ve been to Heaven and Salvation…fabulously decadent clubs in London and Miami respectively and loved it. I’d love to tell Cardinal “Garbage-can” that as a very ex-catholic, I don’t give a toss what he and the other men in red think and such moronic utterances should be reserved to the very naive and gullible. In my opinion, religion is a form of self induced mental illness.
Catholic Church. How soon they (the catholic church ) forget that it was the church who helped Nazis to escape to South America. Were any priests convicted of war crimes for that? How many priests have been “sent away” to another parish so that they cannot be prosecuted for peadophilia…what has happened to those priests. This cardinal is nothing more that a bigot in a bad frock and should be ashamed for calling himself a man of God. Clean up your own act first sister before pointing those prada shoes in my direction.
dum priest. Priest playing with young boys won’t make it too. so brave for them to judge.
