OPENLY GAY CATHOLIC PRIT DISCS POPE FRANCIS' APPEAL FOR LGBTQ PROTECTNS
” Meang that, if someone is gay, they shouldn’t study for the prithood. That stance puts Francis le wh his precsor, Pope Benedict XVI, who issued a document 2005 statg that men wh “eply rooted homosexual tennci” shouldn’t be allowed to study for the prithood. The Pope’s public ments on gay men and women provi at least some hts of what he really thks.
That is, for Francis, beg gay and the teachg of the Catholic Church is an “and/and” proposn. The two reali seem to be ntradictory if we nsir that Francis has exprsed publicly and shown his meetgs wh gays and transgenr persons an openns to who they are and how they live.

Fally, the Catholic Church do not e down firmly on the “nature or nurture” qutn; whether one is born gay or is a choice.
