In March 2016, the World Psychiatric Association (WPA) consisting of 118 countries, and over 200,000 psychiatrists wrote to the United Nations and all world leaders.

Homosexuality Cannot Be Changed

This scientific body clearly stated that homosexuality CANNOT be reversed or changed and it is therefore NOT a choice. To the Patriarch, I would say, NOT oving your neighbour is an abomination. According to Jesus when he spoke to the lawyer in the Parable of the Good Samaritan, entrance to heaven is contingent on three things: Love of God, Love of Neighbour, and Love of Self. The love of self, whether is it interpreted religiously or secularly, is to think of oneself as good, wholesome, worthy and a recipient of equality and justice

Why Did Jesus Pick a Samaritan?

As Christians, we have to ask ourselves. “Why did Jesus pick a Samaritan in the Story of the Good Samaritan? These were the most ‘unclean’ and ‘ungodly’ of Jewish society. In fact, if a Samaritan touched a Jew, that Jew would have to be ‘cleansed’ by a priest in the Temple. It is ironic that Jesus drinks from the same cup as a Samaritan Woman.

Why did the Priests Pass By the Wounded Man?
Jesus is showing that being in a religious robe, or knowing the Bible, does not get a person into the Kingdom. They priests ignored the man in need. They were above the law - full of pride and obviously judgmental about the wounded man. Jesus told us to love everyone and NOT to judge.

If we want to qualify someone's political merit by their sexuality let me remind you of a couple of quotes from our Lord & let's see who qualifies !

But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart : Math. 5 : 28

He that is without sin among you , let him first cast a stone at her : John 8 : 7

She's an abomination. Hope that the government does not give one inch to that confused being. She will turn everything upside down in Serbia. Shame! Her mother must have been a gypsy who didn't care about her kids.

SPC cannot do anything about that because time cannot be turned backwards. To do that you have to become a dictatorship or religious state.

I Would like to think that an institution as the CPC would not hold such views, whilst I can see how such an article would appeal to the Neanderthals amongst us.

Nobody cares about what the church wants.
This is the 21st century and Serbia is a secular state.
You have NO RIGHT to interfere with human rights because of your outdated beliefs!

Do you actually believe Blic? It's a relic of the Communist propaganda machine that still makes a daily attempt to divide the country.

Blic is also owned in part by Adel Springer, Germany's leading tabloid propaganda network. Having said that, I can well imagine that there would be church opposition to a lesbian politician in Serbia. Especially as it is believed that many of the Orthodox Church hierarchy are covertly homosexual themselves and are overtly homophobic in order to preserve their secrecy.

But what if that person was a brilliant politician? Why should their private life affect their work? As with all religious institutions, they are scared that people might start questioning their ridiculous beliefs from a book written in backward times and undermine their grip on power.
