Pope Backtracks On Church Support Of Homosexuals

The synod was a process; the opinion of a synodal father was just that, the opinion of a synodal father; and a first draft was merely a first draft meant to record it all. Nobody mentioned homosexual marriage at the synod, it did not cross our minds. What we did talk about was of how a family with a homosexual child, whether a son or a daughter, goes about educating that child, how the family bears up, how to help that family to deal with that somewhat unusual situation. That is to say, the synod addressed the family and the homosexual persons in relation to their families, because we come across this reality all the time in the confessional: a father and a mother whose son or daughter is in that situation. This happened to me several times in Buenos Aires. We have to find a way to help that father or that mother to stand by their son or daughter. That´s what the synod addressed. That´s why someone mentioned positive factors in the first draft. But this was just a draft.

Basically what he's saying is what the synod stated, that the church must follow the Catechism, which states that homosexuals are *disordered*
So when he states that the synod was trying to help parents who love their gay children and are trying to reconcile the churches stance verses parental love, they are suggesting the parents support church doctrine (seek help for their child's disorder)
Same old shit, different day and yeah, Pope Francis is as big a bigot as the rest of his church leaders.
