梵蒂冈批准准则, 允许同性恋男子在意大利训练为牧师, 目的是建立更具包容性的教会。 Vatican approves guidelines allowing gay men to train as priests in Italy, aiming for a more inclusive Church.

梵蒂冈已经批准了新的准则, 允许同性恋男子在意大利训练为天主教牧师, 只要他们承诺独身, 不支持“同性恋文化”。 The Vatican has approved new guidelines allowing gay men to train as Catholic priests in Italy, provided they commit to celibacy and do not support "gay culture." 虽然该教会认为同性恋倾向是“内在的混乱”, 但该准则鼓励采取更具包容性的方针, 将候选人的性取向视为个性的一个方面。 While the Church maintains that homosexual tendencies are "intrinsically disordered," the guidelines encourage a more inclusive approach by considering candidates' sexual orientation as one aspect of their personality. 这一转变与教皇弗朗西斯使教会更加受欢迎的努力是一致的,尽管这个话题在牧师中仍然很敏感。 This shift aligns with Pope Francis' efforts to make the Church more welcoming, though the topic remains sensitive among priests.
