Dozens of Catholic priests in Germany plan defy the Vatican and bless homosexual partnerships, with many set to live-stream the blessings online.

In March, the Vatican decreed that the Catholic Church cannot bless same-sex marriages. In response, more than 230 professors of Catholic theology in Germany and other countries where German is spoken signed a statement protesting the decision, the Associated Press reports.

In a statement, the group declared that the decree "is marked by a paternalistic air of superiority and discriminates against homosexual people and their life plans."

Now, dozens of priests in Germany have vowed to defy the Vatican. "In view of the refusal of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith to bless homosexual partnerships, we raise our voices and say: We will continue to accompany people who enter into a binding partnership in the future and bless their relationship," the group said in a statement.

A group of dissenting priests has also compiled a list of church services that will take place nationwide on or around May 10, where priests will publicly bless gay couples. Many of the services will be live-streamed.

Good. Fuck doctrines that intend for people to be societally stuck in the Dark Ages forever.

Makes sense as long as their flock still pretends to be Catholic.

Are we really supposed to listen to doctrine set by a bunch of old men that couldn't keep their hands off of kids?

Im honestly surprised, I thought Pope Francis was more progressive than this. Good on these German professors and priests.

If you can revise the bible how many times? You can say being gay isn't evil. Love, don't hate. That's basically the message.

Does this have any bearing on legal status, or is it literally just an argument over imaginary blessings?

History repeats itself, as Protestantism was born 500 years ago from the acts of German priest Martin Luther. I personally would welcome a true LBGT-accepting breakaway sect of the Christian faith rising to prominence in my lifetime.
