Priests and nuns watch internet porn, Pope Francis admitted while speaking with seminarians in Rome yesterday, according to ANSA.
Pope Francis said internet porn was a “vice” shared between members of the church.
“It is a vice that many people have, many laymen, many laywomen, and also priests and nuns,” said the 85-year-old Pope.
“The Devil gets in that way. And I’m not just talking about criminal pornography like that involving the abuse of children, that is already degeneration. But pornography that is a little ‘normal’,” he continued.
He cautioned priests and nuns, saying, “Dear brothers, be careful about this.”
Catholic priests and nuns are forbidden from watching pornography, with the Catechism defining sexual imagery as an “offence against chastity” under article 2354.
