Alifhafizin - Gereja Katolik, sebelum ini mengutuk homoseksual sebagai "intrinsik bercelaru," yg sedang mempertimbangkan homoseksual memeluk beriman, & juga sebahagiannya menerima sama jantina, & lain2 perkongsian agama unsanctioned.
"Homoseksual mempunyai hadiah dan kualiti untuk menawarkan masyarakat Kristian: kita mampu menyambut orang-orang ini, menjamin kepada mereka ruang lagi dalam masyarakat kita Sering kali mereka ingin menghadapi Gereja yang menawarkan mereka rumah mengalu-alukan," katanya dalam satu "relatio, "doku-men yg dikeluarkan pada masa separuh jalan daripada Synod, perbincangan 2 minggu Katolik dan hubungan peribadi di Vatican, yang dihadiri oleh 200 uskup senior.
"Adakah masyarakat kita mampu membuktikan bahawa, menerima dan menilai orientasi seksual mereka, tanpa menjejaskan doktrin Katolik mengenai keluarga dan perkahwinan?"
Muktamar, yang telah dihadiri oleh Pope Francis, juga telah mengiktiraf kesahihan hubungan gay, walaupun ia berhenti jauh dari menyamakan mereka dengan perkahwinan.
"Tanpa menafikan masalah moral yang berkaitan dengan kesatuan homoseksual ia perlu diambil perhatian bahawa terdapat kes-kes di mana bantuan bersama ke pusat pengorbanan merupakan sokongan yang berharga dalam kehidupan rakan-rakan," kata relatio, yang merupakan perbincangan draf awal yang mungkin akan menjadi asas kpd alamat yang akhir, yg akan diterbitkan selepas dewan gereja tertutup wrap up.
Walaupun keinginan homoseksual dan LESBIAN tidak dianggap memang berdosa oleh Vatican, seks adalah gay. Namun, Pope Francis sudah memberi isyarat pendi-rian berpotensi kurang yg menyalahkan tahun lepas, terkenal berkata, "Siapakah saya untuk menghukum?" Apabila disoal tentang lelaki gay membujang menjadi berimam. Dalam usaha saat akhir, Paus secara peribadi memperkenalkan beberapa sekutu teologi ke dalam jawatankuasa relatio merangka minggu lepas.
CATHOLIC ‘breakthrough’: VATICAN Considers ‘Welcoming GIFTS and QUALITIES Of GAYS’ . . .
The Catholic Church, which previously condemned homosexuality as “intrinsically disordered,” is considering embracing homosexual believers, as well as partially accepting same-sex, and other religiously unsanctioned partnerships.
"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," it said in a “relatio,” a document released at the half-way point of the Synod, a two-week discussion of Catholicism and personal relationships at the Vatican, attended by 200 senior bishops.
"Are our communities capable of proving that, accepting and valuing their sexual orientation, without compromising Catholic doctrine on the family and matrimony?”
The Synod, which has been attended by Pope Francis, has also recognized the validity of gay relationships, though it stopped far short of equating them to marriage.
"Without denying the moral problems connected to homosexual unions it has to be noted that there are cases in which mutual aid to the point of sacrifice constitutes a precious support in the life of the partners," said the relatio, which is a preliminary discussion draft that will likely form the basis of the final address, to be issued after the closed-door Synod wraps up.
While homosexual desires are not considered inherently sinful by the Vatican, gay sex is. Yet, Pope Francis already signaled a potentially less condemnatory stance last year, famously saying, “Who am I to judge?” when questioned about celibate gay men becoming priests. In a last-minute move, the pontiff personally introduced several of his theological allies into the relatio drafting committee last week.

QUEST, kumpulan Katolik gay yang lama wujud, berkata kenyataan baru "mewa-kili satu kejayaan dalam bahawa mereka mengakui bahawa kesatuan itu mem-punyai kebaikan intrinsik & merupakan sumbangan yg berharga kepada masya-rakat yang lebih luas dan kebaikan bersama."
Sementara itu, David dan Jonathan, persatuan Kristian gay di Perancis, berkata ia menerima berita "dengan kegembiraan."
"Hakikat bahawa kita walaupun dalam agenda luar biasa . . ." kata jurucakap Elizabeth Saint-Guily.
Muktamar juga telah dipanggil untuk permohonan "undang-undang kecerunan," dengan keadaan keluarga yang tidak konvensional - sama ada perkahwinan dija-lankan tanpa rahmat gereja atau bersama-kediaman - untuk dilihat dari segi Ketepatan dalam darjah perbezaan, tidak hitam dan putih. Imam digalakkan untuk memupuk "unsur-unsur yang membina dalam situasi yang belum atau tidak lagi sesuai dengan ideal itu," dan bukannya "mengasingkan" orang yang beriman den-gan memberitahu mereka mereka "hidup dalam dosa."
"Setiap keluarga rosak pertama sekali perlu mendengar dengan hormat dan kasih sayang, menjadi sahabat dalam perjalanan sebagai Kristus dengan murid-murid di jalan raya untuk Emmaus," kata relatio, yang menegaskan bahawa gereja harus "menerima hakikat" daripada hubungan moden.
Relatio tidak beralih pembangkang asasnya kawalan kelahiran, tetapi berkata bahawa jika ada apa-apa kaedah yang diamalkan, mereka perlu mengambil kira "maruah orang itu," dengan kaedah semula jadi dengan cara yang disukai menge-lakkan persenyawaan.
Kesimpulan mesyuarat akan dibincangkan pada tahun hadapan, sebelum dokumen itu muktamad era Pope Francis diterbitkan demi satu Synod.
QUEST, a long-established gay Catholic group, said the new statements "represent a breakthrough in that they acknowledge that such unions have an intrinsic goodness and constitute a valuable contribution to wider society and the common good."
Meanwhile, David and Jonathan, a gay Christian association in France, said it received the news “with joy.”
"The fact that we are even on the agenda is amazing…” said spokeswoman Elizabeth Saint-Guily.
The Synod has also called for the application of the “law of gradualness,” with unconventional family situations – be it marriages conducted without a church blessing or co-habitation – to be seen in nuanced, not black-and-white terms. Priests are encouraged to nurture "constructive elements in those situations that do not yet or no longer correspond to that ideal," instead of “alienating” believers by telling them they are “living in sin.”
“Each damaged family first of all should be listened to with respect and love, becoming companions on the journey as Christ did with the disciples on the road to Emmaus,” said the relatio, which insisted that the church must “accept the reality” of modern relationships.
The relatio did not shift its fundamental opposition of birth control, but said that if any such methods are practiced, they must take into account the “dignity of the person,” with natural method the preferred way of avoiding conception.
The conclusions of the meeting will be discussed over the next year, before the definitive document of Pope Francis’s era is published after another Synod.
