The secular media is already heavily criticizing the Pope’s comments. It used to be that the secular media was respectful of the Pope and his statements. No more. Further evidence, (IMO without being paranoid) of the assault on the Church that is growing throughout the world.
And in other news, the strident “gays” are hectoring the Holy Father for this:
“It is not an outmoded metaphysic if the Church speaks of the nature of human existence (being) as man and woman and asks that this order of creation be repected. What in fact is being treated here is faith in the Creator and being attuned to the language of creation, the contempt for which would be the self-destruction of man and hence a destruction of God’s work itself. What is often expressed and understood by the term “gender” is often ultimately turned into the self-emancipation of man from creation and from the Creator.”
