However, he said, "We have to look at different cases and evaluate them in their variety." 教宗重述教會長久以來的教導:婚姻是一男一女的結合，但他也說:"我們應當關注那些不同 的個案和以他們的方式評價他們"。 States, for instance, justify civil unions as a way to provide economic security to cohabitating couples, the Pope said in a wide-ranging interview published Wednesday in Corriere della Sera, an Italian daily. State-sanctioned unions are thus driven by the need to ensure rights like access to health care, Francis added. 在星期三公開的一家義大利日報Corriere della Sera的訪問中，教宗認為民事結合可以提 供為同居伴侶提供經濟安全。教宗還說，國家認可的民事結合還有確保醫療照顧的功用。 A number of Catholic bishops have supported civil unions for same-sex couples, including Pope Francis when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 2010, according to reports in National Catholic Reporter and The New York Times. 有一些天主教主教曾支持同性民事結合，根據National Catholic Reporter和紐約時報的 報導，2010年時任布宜諾斯艾利斯大主教的教宗方濟也是其中之一。 Behind closed doors, pope supported civil unions in Argentina, activist says But Wednesday's comments are "the first time a Pope has indicated even tentative acceptance of civil unions," according to Catholic News Service. Later on Wednesday, a Vatican spokesman sought to clarify the Pope's remarks. "The Pope did not choose to enter into debates about the delicate matter of gay civil unions," said the Rev. Thomas Rosica, a consultant to the Vatican press office. "In his response to the interviewer, he emphasized the natural characteristic of marriage between one man and one woman, and on the other hand, he also spoke about the obligation of the state to fulfill its responsibilities towards its citizens." "We should not try to read more into the Pope’s words than what has been stated in very general terms," Rosica added. 星期三後，梵蒂岡的發言人澄清教宗的立場: "教宗並未選擇開啟對同性民事結合的辯論。他強調婚姻為一男一女的結合的天性，但另一 方面，他也在談國家應該實現對其公民的義務。我們不應該對教宗的發言做太多的解讀。" Pope Francis, who marks his first year in office on March 13, has sought to set a more tolerant tone for his 1 billion-member church and suggested that a broad range of topics are at least open for discussion. In January, the Pope recalled a little girl in Buenos Aires who told her teacher that she was sad because "my mother's girlfriend doesn't like me." "The situation in which we live now provides us with new challenges which sometimes are difficult for us to understand," the Pope told leaders of religious orders, adding that the church "must be careful not to administer a vaccine against faith to them." 一月，教宗回應一名布宜諾斯艾利斯的小女孩，她說她因為她媽的女朋友不喜歡她而難過 ，教宗回應:"目前的我們生活的環境給了我們許多難以了解的挑戰，應當小心而不是成了 他們反抗信仰的疫苗。" The Vatican later denied that those comments signaled an opening toward same-sex unions. 梵諦岡隨後否認這些評論代表開放同性民事結合。 Last June, Francis famously refused to judge gay priests in comments that ricocheted around the world. He has also said that the church should not "interfere" in the spiritual lives of gays and lesbians. Pope Francis' greatest hits of 2013 Support of same-sex unions of any type is fiercely contested by many Catholic church leaders. 原文之後跟同志無關，恕刪。 (CNN's Delia Gallagher assisted in translating Pope Francis' remarks from the Italian.) ------- 心得:感覺教宗在一步步的試水溫。這是幾天前的新聞了，原本以為會有中文新聞的，但 等個幾天我只好自己簡單翻譯了...。 -- http://lescholar.pixnet.net/blog 我的部落格:lescholar-關於同性戀的學術研究。 --
