Fuck the pope
We're focusing on him using a homophobic slur, but we're ignoring what the meeting was about: that he doesn't want gay men in the priesthood.
Is that his position? I didn’t see that part in the article.
edit: ok, i see that now
Yes, the entire thing was him justifying why he doesn't want seminaries to accept gay men, and how "people with those tendencies" fall into temptation.
The Vatican ruled in 2005 that the church cannot allow the ordination of men who are actively gay or have “deep-seated” homosexual tendencies. Francis upheld the ruling in 2016.
Two years later he told the Italian bishops not to accept gay candidates for the priesthood
ok, i missed that
Then guess 90% of them should resign then. Besides fuck the pope the chruch is nothing but a pedophile ring.
Pedophilia is not related to homosexuality.
A person who sexually molests children has both impaired motivation and impaired inhibition. Possible motivational factors include social anxiety and the “abused-abuser theory.” Possible inhibitory factors include impulsivity, cognitive distortions, and psychopathy. In addition, neurobiological abnormalities may pertain to either motivational or inhibitory dysfunction.

Maybe he should be more focused on keeping out pedophiles.
