Luca Di Tolve, Mister Gay Italy 1990 and a former homosexual activist, posted a reflection on his website regarding the declaration Fiducia Supplicans from the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF), lamenting that the Vatican document has caused pain, confusion, and affliction in those who “are struggling for chastity.”
On Dec. 18, 2023, the DDF published Fiducia Supplicans, a declaration that allows the blessing of same-sex couples and couples in irregular situations.
Various bishops and entire bishops’ conferences have expressed their opposition to the declaration. The bishops of Africa as a whole even stated on Jan. 11 that they definitively rejected blessing homosexual couples in order to avoid scandal.
Di Tolve, who changed his life thanks to the Virgin Mary and who now helps people who have same-sex attraction, pointed out Jan. 11 that with the Vatican text, “we’re the truly marginalized who are struggling for chastity, for fidelity, to go against our impulses and against the temptation to give in to false freedoms that distract us from the sacrifice of a healthy life and distance us from God, from love, from salvation.”
