I like this pope, he has it right for a change.
The 'pope' is not a judge. Christ is. As Homosexuality is a sin like anyother sexual sin, if the pope even has ever looked at a woman lustfully even for a moment, then he is guilt of the same sin, thus placing him in the same boat as any of the gay people he was asked to levy a judgement against.
His job is to point people toward attonement, not place judgements. Now in doing so he is required to identify sin, but that is where it ends.
