This thread is about another major Protestant denomination normalizing a new theology that accepts Homosexual sexual activity as Holy and Blessed by Jesus Christ Himself.

There is no need to Hi-Jack this thread with other unrelated topics involving the Roman Catholic Church. Indeed, such tactics are known as Diversionary Tactics.

Also Champagne, a few posts down:

The clear language of the Bible indicates that Jesus changed Simon's name to Peter, which means "Rock". Jesus then gave the Keys "to the Kingdom of Heaven", and conferred the "binding and loosing" powers upon Peter.

ALL OF CHRISTENDOM and the entire Christian Church taught these Truths for over Fifteen Centuries - over one-thousand and five hundred years.

BTW, Peter means pebble. The rock that the church is built upon is the fact that Jesus is the Son of God. You don't build a church on a pebble.
