Pope Appoints Open Homosexual to Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors
LifeSite News ^ | 3/25/21 | David McLoone

The Pope had talked to Juan Carlos Cruz already in 2018, allegedly saying, ‘God made you gay.’

VATICAN CITY, March 25, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Francis appointed Juan Carlos Cruz, an openly homosexual man, to the Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors on Wednesday. Cruz is himself a victim of clerical sexual abuse.

According to the 2004 John Jay Report on the nature and scope of clerical sexual abuse of minors, “The results of our study indicated that of all victims whose gender was reported, … 81% were male and 19% were female.” In other words, it seems that sexual abuse committed by members of the priesthood is overwhelmingly homosexual in nature.

However, Margaret Smith, a John Jay College of Criminal Justice researcher, cautioned, “At this point, we do not find a connection between homosexual identity and an increased likelihood of sexual abuse.” Karen Terry, another researcher, argued, “Someone can commit sexual acts that might be of a homosexual nature but not have a homosexual identity.”

Previously, in 2018, Cruz had already met with Pope Francis at the Vatican for a private meeting where he alleged that the Pope affirmed him in his homosexuality, telling him that “God made you gay.”

Cruz said at the time Francis told him “that you are gay does not matter. God made you like that and he loves you like that and I do not care. The Pope loves you as you are, you have to be happy with who you are.”

When approached for clarification on whether or not Francis made the comments as alleged by Cruz, the Vatican press office’s Cristina Ravenda told LifeSiteNews at the time, “The Vatican does not comment on private conversations of the Pope.” No clarification has been offered since.

Something tells me that, Poop Francis may have the same type of sexual inclination as Juan Carlos Cruz. Either that of the poop is the devil in disguise. In any case, the pope is not Catholic.

How much stupidity can you fit into one paragraph?

"However, Margaret Smith, a John Jay College of Criminal Justice researcher, cautioned, “At this point, we do not find a connection between homosexual identity and an increased likelihood of sexual abuse.” Karen Terry, another researcher, argued, “Someone can commit sexual acts that might be of a homosexual nature but not have a homosexual identity.”

Most homosexuals were sexually abused as minors, they seek to normalize their behavior so as to have easier access TO ABUSE YOUR CHILDREN!!

Maybe a few folks turned into pillars of salt would cause a different kind of “wokeness” - I don’t think anything less will work since we seem to be here:

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah 5:20 ESV

I hope there was a mic drop followed by the DJ starting up the tunes as the soap bubbles poured onto the dance floor.
