Sydney Morning Herald got it wrong on Pope's Homosexual comments

Mark Kenny from the Sydney Morning Herald incorrectly summarizes the Pope on homosexuality....as a relaxed attitude. 


"When Tony Abbott was asked about Pope Francis' relaxed attitude to homosexuals, his response probably surprised breakfast television viewers.
''My sister, as you know, Christine is gay. I want her to be treated as every other Australian is treated and that's the Australian standard - we don't discriminate,'' he said."

In fact, the Pope and the Churches position has not changed at all. Namely, homosexual acts are sinful. Homosexual activists are dangerous.  But a person committed to Christ, wants to serve God, loves God, may suffer temptation but chooses not to act on sinful sexual desires. 

Is that a relaxed attitude towards homosexuals? At least TIME magazine got it right. The Pope hasn't changed at all.
