Gay People Are Our Brothers-Pope Francis

By

The pope has said that he 'will not judge' gay priests.
Speaking to reporters on a flight back from his week-long visit to sexually permissive Brazil, Pope Francis said he 'would not stand in judgment' of gays in the Vatican and that they should not be discriminated against.

The pontiff's remarks about gays mark a more conciliatory approach than his predecessor. Benedict signed a document in 2005 saying that men with deep-rooted homosexual tendencies should not be priests.
In a remarkably open press conference, Francis said that people should not be persecuted for their sexual orientation. He said: 'I am not going to judge. If a person is gay and of good will and seeks the Lord who am I to judge?'
'The catechism tells us not to discriminate or marginalise against these people. They are our brothers.'

But will you be comfortable if you know your Pastor or Priest is gay
