Brazilian Priest Excommunicated

The Roman Catholic Church has excommunicated Brazilian priest Father Roberto Francisco Daniel. His excommunication was a result of some of his teachings. Most recently he has taught that same-sex marriage is OK. Daniel has also expressed other controversial views. One of the most shocking was when he suggested that adultery is acceptable as long as the person's spouse is aware of it and allows it. Wow.....

Excommunication, or expulsion from the church, bars a believer from participating in the liturgy n a ministerial capacity, however it encourages the guilty party to work towards restoring their relationship with the church. Despite his excommunication, Daniel has not backed down from his controversial views.
