cw transphobia
Pope Francis reiterated his opposition to transgenderism on Friday, warning that it’s a “dangerous ideology” and arguing that its proponents are naïve if they believe they’re on the “path to progress.”
“Gender ideology, today, is one of the most dangerous ideological colonizations,” the pope said in an interview to Argentina’s La Nacion newspaper. “Why is it dangerous? Because it blurs differences and the value of men and women.”
The pontiff has repeatedly spoken out against gender theory over the years, even as he has emphasized the need to be welcoming and provide pastoral care for transgender people. For instance, he has likened gender ideology to nuclear arms and genetic manipulation, and he has warned that it’s part of a “global war” against marriage and the family.

Sorry Francis, I'm simply not going to take the opinions of an organisation who thinks condom use is worse than an AIDS epidemic seriously. Go outside and play with your hats.
He actually said that matter shouldn't be as ironclad as before, which made the Knights of Malta flip the fuck out and demand he step down or some shit
