Pope Francis is telling gay priests to remain celibate or leave the priesthood. In his new book, Francis says homosexuality in the Church is something that worries him. He notes that “the question of homosexuality is a very serious one,” adding that men who are training to be priests must be “humanly and emotionally mature” prior to being ordained. Francis said those with rooted homosexual tendencies shouldn’t even be admitted to the Catholic clergy and it would be better if homosexuals who are already priests or nuns to leave rather than live a double life.
