Pope Francis has recently exprsed support for the crimalizatn of homosexualy, urgg bishops worldwi to unrgo a "nversn" toward the LGBTQ+ muny. While the change tone is a step forward for LGBTQ+ Catholics, the Catholic Church's teachgs on homosexualy and genr inty still need revisn to repair the harm flicted on queer people.
