Friend's Mothers Feet

Nobody can resist the appeal of Leo ...

's once again a typical Easter controversy, enough to supply the conversations at the end of Easter Vigil on Saturday.

What's this? Monsignor Leonard, bishop of Namur, in an interview with TV Mosquito , said he is against euthanasia and abortion, that condoms are not 100% sure to prevent the transmission of AIDS, and that homosexuality is a sexuality that betrayed not mature.

is his opinion, and, until proven otherwise, in Belgium, everyone has the right to move freely express opinions, even if they go against the grain of the majority of Belgians and even if it is a bishop. That said, these opinions of Bishop Leonard are definitely not new. Far from it ...

But his remarks generated considerable debate, as usual I dare say. For example, the editorial include of La Libre Belgium this morning, by Michel Konen, and also the site Jean-Paul Duchateau the same Free . Ditto on the radio and television since yesterday. Endless interviews, among others, Gabriel Ringlet, whose speech is the opposite of that of the prelate Namur - which is not surprising ...

And what address these comments, the responses to André-Léonard Mutien? Gays and the hood! Is that all? Yes, that's all! Not a word of euthanasia and abortion!

I do not want to say here that the theme of the piece of latex, and the hosting of homosexuals by the Church are of no importance. But, damn! Euthanasia and abortion are issues much bigger, much more worrying! And they affect many more people.

I am surprised that these two themes (So are these sensitive subjects?) Were not addressed by the criticism of the speech of Bishop Leonard. And I ask: why?
