The first gay pope For many of the same reasons that Clton has been lled the "first Black print", one uld argue that Pope Francis serv to be known as the "first gay pope".
A style of openns and acceptance First of all, he is not aaid to e words like gay and lbian, rather than the psdo-clil "persons wh a same-sex attractn" term that's ed by many the Church (pecially those who appear doctrally rigid and fixated on the ss of the flh). So while the pope has changed nothg terms of official law or teachg, he has -- a real sense -- changed everythg terms of attu and ethos, jt by his own personal approach to gay people. Francis has done more than any pope sce the so-lled sexual revolutn of the 1960s -- when people started to beg intifyg more openly as homosexuals -- to promote the rights and digny of gays and lbians wh the Catholic Church.
And this has eed more prits and bishops who would have been reful to appear as "gay iendly", even up to a few years ago, to imate the pope's style of openns and acceptance. Not judgg gay prits A lot of very good and rmative articl have wrten about how Francis has begun changg the way the Church se and treats homosexuals, exclively by his own posive example. The qutn he was asked ncerned one of his close Vatin ais, a prit who had been disvered to be a homosexual liaison (or stable relatnship) durg service at the papal nunciature Uguay, and whether there was a "gay lobby" the Vatin.
POPE FRANCIS LLS ON PARENTS TO 'NEVER NMN' GAY CHILDREN
Reassurg those who stggle, while challengg the hypocr Though 's still nsired a tabu to speak of homosexualy among the Church's ordaed misters, Francis has begun -- even jt a ltle -- to break the silence. The attu the pope has displayed towards gay people n only be a strong affirmatn for the men whose very Church has told them they are serly and fundamentally screwed up. The Church, on the other hand, has been led at tim -- even relatively recent history -- by pop who would surely be nsired homosexuals by today's unrstandg of the term.
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 BENEDICT XVI RIGNED PARTLY BEE OF POWERFUL VATIN GAY LOBBY, ITALIAN PAPER CLAIMS
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 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. 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.
