Spanish archbishop speaks out on homosexual tendencies

Archbishop Elias Yanes of Zaragoza, Spain, said this week the existence of homosexual tendencies does not nullify one's freedom and responsibility and that therefore homosexual acts could not be morally justified.

Archbishop Yanes also underscored in his column that "marriage is not just another union between human persons." Marriage and homosexual unions are "two essentially different realities from an anthropological and ethical point of view."

"No ideology or legislation can erase from the human spirit the certainty that marriage in reality exists solely between two persons of the opposite sex who, through mutual personal donation, proper and exclusive to them, tend in a stable way towards the communion of persons and the procreation and education of children," he said.
