Translation of the Pope’s full remarks and the question issued by Catholic News Agency:
Josh McElwee, National Catholic Reporter: Thank you, Holy Father. In that same speech yesterday in Georgia, you spoke, as in so many other countries about gender theory, saying that it is a great enemy and a threat against marriage. But, I would like to ask you, what would you say to someone who has struggled with their sexuality for years and feels that there is truly a problem of biology, that his aspect doesn't correspond to what he or she feels is their sexual identity. You, as a pastor and minister, how would you accompany these people?
Pope Francis: First of all: in my life as a priest and bishop, even as Pope, I have accompanied people with homosexual tendencies, I have also met homosexual persons, accompanied them, brought them closer to the Lord, as an apostle, and I have never abandoned them.

(I've never, EVER heard of this...ever) and "time" (since one's last confession) being the only detriment to a good confession?

Do we agree that the truth about sin and mercy is somewhere between the priest who might, "yell from the sidewalk: 'you'll go to hell!'"
