“How can a man that has taken a vow of chastity even HAVE a sexual orientation?”
That’s kind of silly don’t you think? Did you think that one through?
I for one, knew well before I first had sex that I was attracted to girls. Probably by the age of eight or nine...

This headline was a whoa moment for me. However, I do know how the media likes to take Pope's comments out of context. I'll wait and see if it's clarified with more details before buying into the full presentation of story based on liberal MSM reporting.
He was responding to reports that a trusted aide was involved in an alleged gay tryst a decade ago.
He said he investigated the allegations according to canon law and found nothing to back them up.
But he took journalists to task for reporting on the matter, saying the allegations concerned matters of sin, not crimes like sexually abusing children.
And when someone sins and confesses, he said, God not only forgives but forgets.

Pope John Paul II said men with a STRONG HOMOSEXUAL orientation SHOULD BE DENIED admittance into the priesthood.
The reason is obvious. Most fags can not control themselves. They lie and are obsessed with young boys.
