- https://zenit.org/articles/transcript-of-popes-dialogue-with-polish-bishops/ Pope Francis: "Today children, children are taught this in school that one can choose one’s sex! And why do they teach this? Because the books are those of individuals and institutions that give money. They are ideological colonizations, supported also by very influential countries. And this is terrible. Speaking with Pope Benedict, who is well and has clear thinking, he said to me: “Holiness, this is the time of the sin against God the Creator!” He is intelligent! God has created man and woman; God created the world thus, and thus, and thus…, and we are doing the opposite."
