Father Casey Cole just released a video asking the question,

What does the Bible actually say about homosexuality?

But instead of giving us solid answers,

Father Casey just creates more confusion

and provides ammunition for critics who want to completely

reject the Bible's teaching on sexuality.

I wasn't planning to address this topic again because I just covered it in my last episode

on the pro- Pro Gay documentary 1946. But I felt it was

justified because Father Casey just released this episode on his channel. Now to be

clear Father Casey claims to fully support and defend the Church's teaching on

homosexuality. So he's not like the outright dissenters that you see in the 1946 documentary.

However, many of Father Casey's claims about the Bible

are the same ones made in that 1946 documentary.

In doing this, whether he knows it or not,

he's undermining the strong teaching on sexuality in

scripture and provides support for those who want to outright dissent against church

teaching. So let's jump in and see what he gets wrong, but also what Father Casey gets right.

There is no passage that speaks to the concept of homosexuality per se.

There are a few passages that speak of homosexual acts, but often mixed together with other circumstances that make any definitive

statement about homosexuality difficult to make. Not impossible and ultimately not ambiguous,

but also not as clear some might make it out to be.

The catechism does make what we would informally call a definitive statement on the matter
