Abstract

The article discusses Pope Francis I and his views towards gay priests as of August 2013, focusing on an analysis of his trip to Brazil, as well as the attitudes of previous Catholic Church leaders who have condemned the lifestyles and choices of gay individuals. Forgiveness and the roles of gay priests in sexual-abuse scandals are addressed, along with former Popes Benedict XVI and John Paul II. Conservative evangelicals and the Fuller Theological Seminary in the U.S. are examined, as well as pedophilia.
