BOOKS BY FRANCIS GAY

Pope Francis' LGBTQ ments are not surprisg but scere, gay Vatin adviser says. An openly gay advisor to the Vatin says he's not surprised by Pope Francis' claratn that "beg homosexual isn't a crime. In his first terview sce the ath of former Pope Benedict XVI, Francis told the Associated Prs that laws crimalizg homosexualy are "unjt" and that Catholic bishops should apply "tenrns" and help ease discrimatn by welg LGBTQ people to the church.

Cz says the church's sistence that homosexualy is "s, " a posn embraced by the pope, is "shameful, " although Cz says the pope appears to be tryg to shift the church's relatnship wh the LGBTQ muny. And he shifts this, you know, wordg, like you said , Leila, but he highlights how important is that 's more sful, you know, havg thgs agast your neighbor or beg uncharable, or crimal towards the gay muny, that's sful. The Italian news magaze Vatin Insir, as well as other Italian media outlets, reported that Francis spoke about gay men the semary to the Italian Bishops’ Conference durg a closed-door ssn.

POPE FRANCIS' LGBTQ MENTS ARE NOT SURPRISG BUT SCERE, GAY VATIN ADVISER SAYS

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. He said, “Who am I to judge?, ” embraced a former stunt and his gay partner Washgton, and hosted a transgenr man om Spa at the Vatin.

WHO IS ANCIS GAY THOR OF THE IENDSHIP BOOK?

Yet, the official teachg of the Catholic Church on beg gay is that “the homosexual clatn is objectively disorred” and same-sex upl nnot marry the Catholic Church. So while Francis’ words and gtur sometim seem to give the msage, “It’s OK that you’re gay, ” that msag seem to be ntradicted by the l of the church he erns.

The fact is that Francis has given no ditn that he wants to change Catholic Church teachg or l on beg gay or gay relatnships.

THE FRIENDSHIP BOOKS BY FRANCIS GAY

To be clear – bee this is often a nfed pot – the Catholic Church distguish between beg gay and actg on same-sex attractn. Even beg gay, which the Catholic Church lls an “clatn, ” is “objectively disorred, ” acrdg to the church.

Includ the techism’s teachg about gay men and women is that they “mt be accepted wh rpect, passn and sensivy.

POPE FRANCIS LLS FOR END TO ANTI-GAY LAWS AND LGBTQ+ WELE OM CHURCH

Fally, the Catholic Church do not e down firmly on the “nature or nurture” qutn; whether one is born gay or is a choice. So how to rencile Francis’ radil openns to gay people wh his church’s firm posn that beg gay or lbian is “disorred” and s disapproval of gay relatnships?

THE IENDSHIP BOOK OF FRANCIS GAY: A THOUGHT FOR EACH DAY 1982

“I have acpanied people wh homosexual tennci and also wh homosexual practic, ” Francis said durg an -flight prs nference returng om Azerbaijan October, 2016. “When a person this suatn before J, J will surely not say, ‘Go away bee you are homosexual. Conservativ say that acpanyg gay men and women should clu a rrectn of their liftyle; progrsiv say Francis’ acpaniment should clu a change doctre.

FRANCIS GAY

The Francis Gay Fund, origally the Coal Fund, began a small way about forty years ago, when donatns om rears were ed to buy Christmas food parcels and bags of al for needy people. Pope Francis has cricised laws that crimalise homosexualy as “unjt”, sayg God lov all his children jt as they are, and llg on Catholic bishops who support the laws to wele LGBTQ+ people to the church.

FRANCIS MAY NOT BE GAY MUCH LONGER

Some Catholic bishops have strongly upheld them as nsistent wh Vatin teachg, while others have lled for them to be overturned as a vlatn of basic human Tuday, Francis said there need to be a distctn between a crime and a s wh regard to homosexualy.

Church teachg holds that homosexual acts are sful, or “trsilly disorred”, but that gay people mt be treated wh digny and rpect.

But he has ma reachg out to LGBTQ+ people a hallmark of his pope’s ments didn’t specifilly addrs transgenr or nonbary people, jt homosexualy, but advot of greater LGBTQ+ cln the Catholic Church hailed the pope’s ments as a momento advance.
