Credited from: THEDAILYBEAST

  • This change means that **sexual orientation** will not automatically disqualify applicants, a notable shift in the church's approach.
  • Other nations with anti-homosexual sentiments are unlikely to adopt similar policies following Italy's decision.
  • This update comes as the church deals with its perception and acknowledges that the seminary has historically attracted gay men, despite their **condemnation of same-sex relationships**.
