A Catholic cardinal has asked singer Ricky Martin to set a good example for young people and stop promoting being gay. The clergyman says he does not reject the homosexual, but their immoral actions and behaviors, and trying to promote homosexuality or sexual promiscuity among the youth is immoral regardless of where it comes from.
“Personally, I admire Ricky for the great artistic gifts the Lord has endowed him, but please, for the love of his children, for whom I imagine he wants the best, try to set an example to our youth of the great values we all share, besides sex.”
Cardinal Luis Aponte Martinez is from San Juan, Puerto Rico. His comments was made just a month after self-appointed Pastor Wanda Rolon (also from Puerto Rico), an influential social conservative said “Ricky Martin is leading people to hell.”
“The gays continue being sons, brothers and cousins. They have always existed, but glorifying this behavior no. I do not glorify a drug addict, an alcoholic.”
