After apologizing last month for saying” there’s currently too much f*****ry” in closed-door meetings, the Pope has once more used the racist name.
He used of the phrase ‘ frociaggine’, a rude European term about translating as ‘ f*****ness’, on May 20 during a shut- door meeting with European bishops.
According to Roman media company ANSA, Pope Francis, 87, repeated the word on Tuesday as he met Roman monks, saying’ there is an atmosphere of f*****ness in the Vatican’.
He added that it was preferable for young men who have a queer tendancy to be denied entry to the convent, a college that prepares students to be priests.
The Vatican’s press office responded to a question about the most recent statement regarding a statement the bishop made regarding Tuesday’s gathering with the clergy, in which he stressed the importance of welcoming gay people into the Church and the importance of prudence when they choose to study.
Unnamed bishops who were present in the room, who were quoted by the Italian magazine Corriere la Sera, suggested that the pope, an Argentine, might not have realized that the Italian phrase he used was unpleasant.
The Pope was credited with making significant efforts to welcome the LGBT+ neighborhood during his 11-year papal reign.  ,
Some Cathedral observers claim that his new deeds undermine his power and raise concerns about his beliefs and proposed reforms for the Church.
In May, European news agency Adnkronos, citing sources, reported that the Pope said in his talk: ‘ Look, there is already an air of f*****ry around that is not great. There is tomorrow’s society of sexuality with regard to those who have a queer orientation]who] are better off never being accepted]into the seminary].’
Bishops told Corriere da Sera that the comment was met with “incredulous laughter,” but it represents a significant step up for campaigners after church-wide efforts to change their position on LGBTQ+ rights.
The Pope apologised the following year, with the Vatican releasing a declaration that read,” The Pope not intended to offend or show himself in racist words, and he apologises to those who felt offended by the use of a word reported by another.”
