Negativa
de los Obispos Daneses al Matrimonio por la Iglesia de Parejas del
Mismo Sexo
Danish Bishops Negative to Same
Sex Church Marriage
The
Danish national newspaper Politiken made recently a survey among 8 of
the 10 bishops in the Danish Church about their reaction to the prime
minister’s statements regarding same sex marriages in the church. The
responses were overwhelmingly negative. 6 of the 8 bishops were against
it. The bishop of Viborg, the most negative among them, said to
Politiken:
“It is not that
I in any way reject homosexuals’ right to close a legally binding
agreement that grant them the same rights and obligations as a
marriage. It is just not a marriage in a theological sense".
"Det
er ikke fordi, jeg på nogen måde er imod, at homoseksuelle indgår en
aftale, der juridisk giver de samme rettigheder og forpligtelser som et
ægteskab. Det er bare ikke et ægteskab i kirkelig forstand,"
However, basically all bishops expressed satisfaction with the current
practise which was sanctioned by the Danish Church in 1997 that gives
same sex couples that have registered their partnership, a blessing in
the church afterwards. The bishop in Ribe, Elisabeth Dons Christensen,
said:
“This
way, we respect them both as human beings and their love. It is as far
as we can get now”.
"På
den måde respekterer vi både de mennesker og deres kærlighed. Det er
vel så langt, vi kan komme nu”
Only 2 of the bishops were positive to church marriages. Among them, the
bishop in Roskilde, Jan Lindhardt who said:
“If
they can be registered by the state, they should also be able to get
married in church. If the society accepts them and the citizens too, and
I do it myself, I can see no reason why it should not be like that”.
"Når
de kan registreres af staten, burde de også kunne blive gift i kirken.
Hvis samfundet accepterer dem, og borgerne gør det, og jeg selv gør, så
kan jeg da ikke se nogen grund til, at det ikke skulle være sådan."
