Pope Francis
"Who am I to judge."
Not anymore.
Peter, leader of the apostles:
"And reducing the cities of the Sodomites, and of the Gomorrhites, into ashes, condemned them to be overthrown, making them an example to those that should after act wickedly." (2 Pet.) (p. 15)
Pope Francis: "Who am I to judge?"
This is night and day. If the Pontiff is unable or unwilling to uphold the 2000 year old teaching of the Church, then who will? Domine, miserere nobis. +JMJ+
The Revelations of St Bridget
St Bridget hears the devil tempting a certain bishop: Of what concern is it to you how this or that person lives? Why should you offend and correct those by whom you could be honored and loved? If they don't offend you and your loved ones, why should you care how they live or whether they offend God? If you are good yourself, why should you judge others? (3.2; cf. 4. 126). Saint Bridget states that many priests follow this advice, to their own damnation. They ignore sin that should be corrected. They choose to forget, on account of their worldly and carnal attachments, as well as inordinate concern for human respect, that reproving the sinner is a spiritual work of mercy the neglect of which they will be held accountable before God (3.15). She also accuses bishops of tolerating and ignoring the great scandal of priests living unchaste lives (1.23).

Moral acts encompass decisions, intentions, failure to behave as one ought in word and deed. There are many sins committed in respect of homosexual perversion other than (and prior to) physical acts.
