Here's a piece:
“...the Orthodox hierarch insisted that hatred and personal judgment have no place in the Christian's life. "We don’t condemn people who have different sexual preferences," he clarified. "That's on their conscience and it’s their business, but they shouldn’t be discriminated against or punished."
“But the Patriarch drew the line at societal affirmation of homosexuality. "However, under no circumstances should this be accepted as a social norm, no different from the social norm that stems from our moral nature, meaning marriage between a man and wife who create a family and have children."
“Kirill solemnly warned that Western laws legalizing same-sex "marriage" and transgenderism will destroy humanity. "This new trend poses a significant threat for the existence of the human race," he said.
