Priestly blessings for a person in same sex union is crazy - Reno Omokri on Pope Francis' proclamation

Reno Omokri, political commentator and a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reacted to the rife news report that Catholic priests bless same-sex couples.

Not excited by Pope Francis' proclamation, Omokri in a lengthy post on his Facebook page opined that "a faithful follower of Yeshua has more in common with a genuine Muslim than with a Catholic or Anglican."

Recall that Pope Francis formally approved letting Catholic priests bless same-sex couples, the Vatican announced Monday, December 18.

This is a radical shift in policy that aimed at making the church more inclusive while maintaining its strict ban on gay marriage.

The document from the Vatican's doctrine office explicitly says priests can offer blessings to same-sex couples provided the blessings themselves don't in any way resemble a marriage. To avoid any confusion, the blessing should not be offered in conjunction with a civil union ceremony, gay or straight.

Below is Reno Omokri's post on social media

Some things that happen In Catholicism and Anglicanism can never happen in the genuine following of Yeshua or in Islam. A faithful follower of Yeshua has more in common with a genuine Muslim than with a Catholic or Anglican. That is why when Catholic Europe expelled Jews on March 31, 1492, the Muslim Ottomans and the Islamic Moors granted them automatic asylum.

Since you were born, how many times has Islam been updated? If you are honest, you will agree that the answer is NEVER.

Only man-made religions need updating. The Word of God is settled. It never changes.
Your holy book says women have no place in ministry (1 Timothy 2:12, 1 Corinthians 14:34). Your holy men say they do. And you jettison your holy book and follow the word of your holy men.

Your Scripture says marriage is exclusively between a man and a woman (Genesis 2:24). Your Pope and Archbishop say priests can bless two men who are in a union as if they are married. And you obey men rather than God? God loves sinners and hates sin. There is nothing wrong in blessing a person with homosexual tendencies. But priestly blessings for a person in an actual same sex union is crazy, especially when Proverbs 28:9 says: "If anyone turns a deaf ear to my instruction, even their prayers are detestable."

When faced with this same predicament in Joshua 24:15, Joshua said, "Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve". He then concluded, "But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

Tomorrow, you will carry your leg that God created and still go to that church to allow such men to continue to lead you away from what your God told you.

And when your attention is drawn to it, you say, 'Judge not'. That is how you will be like the frog that continued to adjust to ever-increasing water temperature until the water became too hot for it to jump and escape.

In Numbers 23:8, Balaam said, "How can I curse those whom God has not cursed?"
And in the year 2023, the Catholic Pope is asking priests to do tye reverse. To bless same-sex marriages that God has not blessed. Is that not a contradiction of what Scripture tells us in Numbers 23:8?

As a Catholic, choose who you will follow. The word of God or the proclamation of Pope Francis! Because you cannot simultaneously follow both.
