The Catechism of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis,
yesterday said Christians owe apologies to gays and others who have been
offended or exploited by the church, that they must not be discriminated
against, that they must be respected and accompanied pastorally.
The Church must ask forgiveness for not behaving many times
-- when I say the Church, I mean Christians! The Church is holy, we are
sinners! I believe that the church not only should apologize to the person who
is gay whom it has offended, but has to apologize to the poor, to exploited
women, to children exploited for labor; it has to ask forgiveness for having
blessed many weapons. These were his words.
