Speaking to LGBT Catholics, three points came across: 1. Insensitive of Vatican to release this during Pride Month 2. Appears authors did not consult trans people, despite calls for dialogue 3. Who are bishops to criticize others when they can’t get their own house in order?
"[One of the problems with] the bishops’ statements is that they contribute to homophobia in our churches."

#Benedict XVI’s letter in #clergysexualabuse is deeply flawed. The analysis of postconciliar developments in moral theology, ecclesiology, sexual ethics is profoundly troubling. https://t.co/KhgHWT1YkY
