Pope Leo XIV: 'No change in Church doctrine on gays and trans people'
"It seems to me very unlikely, at least in the near future, that the doctrine of the Church will change its teachings on sexuality and marriage". People want Church doctrine to change and they want attitudes to change: I believe that we must first change attitudes, before even thinking about changing what the Church teaches on a particular issue." Prevost is clear that this is "a controversial issue, and that some people will make demands such as: 'We want recognition of gay marriage', or 'we want recognition of trans people', so that they will be officially welcomed and approved by the Church".
