- (General Dispatch) – According to statements offered by the Vatican Doctrinal Office, the church does not have the power to bless the union of same-sex couples. It stated that not even God himself can do so.
- The decision expressed by members of the Vatican pointed out that everything that is not contemplated in the scriptures, cannot count on God’s blessing, nor that of the Vatican, because it transgresses the law.
- The decisive position adopted by the leading house of the Catholic Church specified that the sexual union between persons of the same sex is not ordained in the Creator’s directives, because they cannot procreate life.
- The marriage union is designed for a man and a woman, so accepting a gay union is not licit.
- The text also emphasized that this decision is not a discriminatory act, but a reminder of the truth.
- The Catholic Church is prepared to deal with homosexual persons who are also part of God’s creation. At the same time, they must be evangelized, the text indicated.
- In this sense, God’s blessing is given individually to each person and cannot be denied to any member.
- Even though much repudiation will be made known in the coming hours, the Vatican expressed that they obey the word of God and that their function is to take the message of love to all people, following the guidelines established in the scriptures.
