Catholic clergy in favor of homophobia laws? You're talking nonsense.
Clearly you have not been paying attention to the Catholic Church for the past... 20 years, at least.
Yes, I have. I'm a Peruvian Catholic. Latin America is where Catholicism remains the most fervent. The Brazilian clergy isn't going to be making heretical statements on homosexuality. It's not true.
Brazil isn't Germany.
Eastern Europe and Africa.
Brazil was lost a long time ago because of Liberation theology. Most Catholics in Brazil do not go to mass regularly nor follow the moral authority of the church. Brazil has the second worst mass frequency in the world.
Isn't the current Pope sympathetic to homos and trannies in the political sense?

All he's saying is that discrimination against them is wrong, which is in the catechism. That's not the same as approving the homosexual agenda.
he literally said it is a crime. there are videos of him refusing to say that homossexuality i alsos a sin
Being gay itself isn't a sin. Fornication (with the same sex or otherwise) is a sin. Cultivating lustful thoughts is also a sin. The sin of scandal may also be relevant.

Well Catholics are fucktards.
