Pope says he’s worried about homosexuality in the priesthood

[Tbs77]

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis has been quoted in a soon-to-be published book as saying that having gays in the clergy “is something that worries me” and remarking that some societies are considering homosexuality a “fashionable” lifestyle.

 

Italian daily Corriere della Sera’s website Saturday ran excerpts of the book in the form of an interview that Francis gave about religious vocations. Francis was quoted as describing homosexuality within the walls of seminaries, convents and other religious places where clergy live as “a very serious question.”....

Isn’t that the least of the things he ought to worry about with his priesthood?

It sounds like he's saying - "I've heard rumors".

 

" give us a century and we'll get to the bottom of it "

Pedophilia should be of greater concern, I would think.  Immorality (including homosexuality) are abhorrent - but they are not the same problem.

 

Among other things, homosexuality does not address the issue of the females being abused  😕  And all gay people do not molest children.

"REALLY, REALLY" He finally has come to his senses that for over 1,000 years, his predecessors have been promoting homosexuality since Rome and their brothels fell? Isn't it a tad to late for him to make a suggestion mentioned above?

Precisely, why now? In this year 2018? Maybe it’s part of a bigger plan. Is this perhaps to be expected?
