Pope Francis to gay man: 'God made you like this and loves you like this'

[Coop 15,397]

 

Everyone's favorite progressive leader of the Roman Catholic Church is at it again.

In a private meeting two weeks ago, Pope Francis reportedly told a gay man who is a child sex abuse survivor that God created him and that his sexual orientation "does not matter."

Juan Carlos Cruz was victimized as a child by notorious Chilean pedophile Fernando Karadima — who was found guilty of abuse by the Vatican in 2011.

Some of the country's bishops attempted to silence and discredit Cruz's accounts by using his sexuality against him. But Cruz said that the Pope offered him words of empathy and reception.

"He told me, 'Juan Carlos, that you are gay does not matter," Cruz recalled for El País, a Spanish newspaper. "God made you like this and loves you like this and I don't care. The pope loves you like this. You have to be happy with who you are.'"

Trump is a pile of dump but there’s also plenty of other leaders needed to be out of office around the world

As I read somewhere, Catholic Church doesn't condemn being gay at all.

The only issue is gay sex. Sex between people not married is a sin for Catholic Church and since gay people can't marry... they shouldn't have sex.

At the end of the day, Church has no issue with gay abstinent people
