Gays shouldn’t be given funerals, argues Italian bishop
The bishop of the city of Tursi has declared homosexuals should not receive communion or be given funerals.
In an interview published last Friday on pontifex.roma.it, Bishop Francesco Nolè declared that ‘irregulars’ such as criminals and homosexuals should not be given communions or funerals, reports The Pink Paper.
He goes on to say: “Nothing surprises me anymore. Homosexuality, which is a disease, has become something normal. They sprout like poisonous mushrooms, and instead of feeling shame they celebrate this plague and the church itself minimalises these sins.”
His statements were made just days after two members of the Vatican were exposed as being part of a male prostitution ring.
