French gender equality minister wants priest prosecuted for saying homosexuality is sinful ‘weakness’

A French government official has called for the prosecution of a Roman Catholic priest over a video he posted to social media describing homosexual inclinations as “a weakness” that must be fought like any other sin.

Father Matthieu Raffray, 45, posted the video to his more than 60,000 Instagram followers on March 15, admonishing them to resist their sinful weaknesses, including homosexuality among them.

“We all have weaknesses: those who are greedy, those who are angry, those who have homosexual tendencies!” Raffray said in the incriminating video, according to French Catholic media outlet Famille Chrétienne.
