Catholic priest suspended for defending pedophilia on Italian TV
" A Catholic priest from the Italian city of Trento has been suspended after defending pedophiles on live TV and blaming abused children for “seeking affection” from clerics. The comments, which called on people to “accept” pedophilia among other sins, triggered outrage.
Don Gino Flaim from the of the San Giuseppe and Pio X parish said he “understands pedophilia” when the issues was raised during an interview with La7 channel.
“Unfortunately there are children who seek affection because they don’t receive it at home and I understand that some priests can give up,” Flaim said.
“Pedophilia is a sin, and like all sins has to be accepted, also,” while homosexuality is “a disease,” the priest said.
After the interview aired, Flaim was immediately suspended from his role in the parish. "
Would say he has it backwards, pedophilia is the disease, and homosexuality the sin they must accept. Nothing in the Bible about pedophilia, age for sex, or anything else along those lines.
