This is what the world is Imbibing on for entertainment...
And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. Genesis 6:5
"This was bound to happen eventually. The latest episode of HBO’s The New Pope now has the audacity to suggest
“upgrading” the Bible and the Church to include gay marriage.
The February 10 “Fifth Episode” opens with Pope John Paul III (John Malkovich) having a meeting with actress Sharon Stone, of all people.
Stone comes here to offer advice to the Pope about “upgrading” the Church to the modern age, more specifically by supporting gay marriage. The Pope dismisses this initially, but this moment is considered a “small step” in the right direction for a "brave, revolutionary" pope in the future. It’s almost as if they really do want to upgrade the Bible.
On top of a cardinal having gay sex, a nun having sex with a refugee, and the Pope having sexual desires for his marketing
assistant Sofia (Cécile de France), a terrorist group attacks in Lourdes. Make no mistake, all this happens in same episode. The Pope gives Sofia his private number despite her being married, Cardinal Gutiérrez (Javier Cámara) continues to meet with a lover, and Sister Caterina (Eco Andriolo Ranzi) becomes pregnant after her encounters with Faisal (Zaki Bibawi Ayyad).
In his effort to find some sort of stability in the Church, the Pope decides to throw in his support for priests getting married, gay or straight. Although this is clearly an example of “upgrading” the Bible, he reasons that it’s better than the “aberrant” love of pedophilia, as if one can’t denounce both."
