Synod Report Elevates Homosexual Testimonies as “Gift From God” Against Immutable Catholic Doctrine
EWTN News reports that the Vatican’s General Secretariat of the Synod has published testimonies from two men in civil same-sex marriages, presented as annexes to the final report of Study Group 9 of the Synod on Synodality. One testimony describes homosexual orientation as “a gift from God,” while the report proposes a “listening-based approach” to doctrinal questions, explicitly acknowledging the difficulty of reconciling “doctrinal firmness” with “pastoral welcome.” This constitutes a direct assault on the unchanging moral teaching of the Catholic Church, which categorically condemns homosexual acts as “intrinsically disordered” and calls those so afflicted to chastity. The document represents not a development but a corruption of doctrine, a capitulation to the spirit of the age that has infected the conciliar sect since its inception.
