TheGunnShow 5,993 Posted January 6, 2022 Whilst this Pope does have more of a clue than his predecessor when it comes to some non-nuclear family set-ups, he does have a proper blind spot with those who are childfree.

Sexual abstinence seems to be a bit of a problem for much of the Catholic clergy. Especially with kids. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
