Pope says he rejects homosexuals "has no human heart" – The world

Rome – Pope Francis claimed that anyone who rejects homobaduals "does not have a human heart" during a conversation that he had with the British comedian Stephen K. Amos and which will be broadcast today. By the BBC television channel in London.

The BBC has published on social media an advance of this conversation in which you can see Amos explain to Pope Francis that he is not a believer and that he went to Rome "in search of answers and faith".

"But, as a homobadual man, I do not feel accepted," he says, as evidenced by the images from the program "Pilgrimage: the Road to Rome".

Pope Francis immediately responds that giving "more importance to the adjective (" gay ") that in the name (" man ") is not good."

"We are all human beings, we have dignity, if a person has a tendency or another, it does not take away his dignity as a person," says the Argentine pontiff.

"People who decide to reject people by the adjective are people who do not have a human heart," he adds, words that make Amos shudder.

Pope Francis has repeatedly defended the need to respect homobaduals. On the return trip from Brazil in 2013, he asked who he was to judge homobaduals.

On the other hand, the Synod of Bishops on the Family of October 2014 approved a voluminous document in which he initiated a reflection on the problems of the current family, such as those divorced and who remarried, and supported a Catholic church welcoming everyone, including homobaduals
