He criticised theories that consider people’s gender identity as
not fixed and as instead a construct created by society, which are
often used to advocate trans rights.
His remarks came just a
month after he reportedly embraced a transgender man who asked him if he
still had a place in the "house of God".
He said every historical period has "Herods" that "destroy, that plot
designs of death, that disfigure the face of man and woman, destroying
creation" the NCR reported.
"Let's think of the nuclear arms, of the possibility to annihilate in
a few instants a very high number of human beings," he was quoted as
saying. "Let's think also of genetic manipulation, of the manipulation
of life, or of the gender theory, that does not recognise the order of
creation."
"With this attitude, man commits a new sin, that
against God the Creator. The true custody of creation does not have
anything to do with the ideologies that consider man like an accident,
like a problem to eliminate."
"God has placed man and woman and the
summit of creation and has entrusted them with the earth. The design of
the Creator is written in nature."
The interview was conducted in
October and major parts of it were published online in January.
However, it was only recently picked up by the English-language press.
