ROME — The Vatican’s decision to allow priests to bless same-sex couples was seen as the imposition of Western practices on Africa, a form of “cultural colonization,” a leading African Cardinal has stated.with the French-language Catholic television channel KTO, Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo, the president of the Symposium of Episcopal Conferences of Africa and Madagascar , said that African Catholics still believe in the biblical prohibition of homosexual practice as an “abomination.
“In Africa, homosexual practice is viewed as a deviance, an abomination, as the Bible calls it,” he said. “How could such a thing be blessed? It is not considered a normal practice.” “The roots of the West are the values that the West brought to us during colonization and we believed in these values,” he said. “But we realize that for the West today these values no longer exist. That disconcerts us and we ask ourselves: ‘Where is the West going?’”
