Rocco Buttiglione: It is False to be Gay.

Famous Italian politician and christian philosopher speaks clearly and has been reviled for that reason by Homosexual Groups. These speak of "racism" and of a "Taliban Party"


Rome [kath.net] The former Italian Minister Rocco Buttiglione and President of the Christian Democrat Party UDC, had explained in an actual radio interview that homosexuality is immoral. Buttiglione was quoted: "I have nothing against him (By which he means Nichi Vendola, the new President o f the newly constructed Left Party "Sinistra Ecologia Liberta" and known homosexual ). On a political and social level I am against the discrimination of homosexuals, but morally I am not in agreement, I think, that homosexuality is objectively false. To be gay is morally false, as with adultery, income tax evasion or inadequate giving to the poor, all things, which are morally false, even if they aren't punishable by law."

His explanation have concerned substantial attacks from the side of homosexual organizations. So inveighed the president of the homosexual organization Arcigay, Frnaco Grillini and accused Buttiglione of "racism". His arch-conservative UDC is a "Taliban Party", said Grillini. Buttiglione was prevented from becoming EU-Commissioner because he spoke openly on Christian themes, and on subjects like abortion and homosexuality. The Italian philosopher explained still further that pressure must be exerted upon "creeping totalitarian" Institutions like perhaps, the European Parliament

BBC Identifies him as a close friend of the late John Paul II.

Editor notes: despite the fact that he's unwilling to back his convictions with the civil law, or even pursue social pressures against homosexuals, it is not enough for them, they must have their pound of flesh.

"The state has no right to stick its nose into these things and nobody can be discriminated against on the basis of sexual orientation... this stands in the Charter of Human Rights, this stands in the Constitution and I have pledged to defend this constitution," he said.

It doesn't matter if you moderate your position, if you don't agree that what they're doing is absolutely normal, they're not going to be pleased with that and will take steps to prevent you from getting a job, or see that you're not working at all, which is what happened with Mr. Buttilglione in 2004. Perhaps now, the would-be EU Commissioner is less sanguine about what is, after all, a neo-Marxist boondoggle.
