Pope Francis met with a group of priests and seminarians studying in Rome. During the meeting, they were able to discuss some topics, such as different temptations and the role of the Church in war.
Pope Francis spoke to them about pornography. He said that it harms many lay people but it is also a problem that affects priests, seminarians and nuns.
This is not the first time the Pope has spoken about pornography. He did so in June when he defined it as 'a threat to public health.'
POPE FRANCIS
It should be denounced as a permanent attack on the dignity of men and women. It should be denounced not only to protect children, which is an important task for the authorities and for all of us, but it's also important to declare pornography as a threat to public health.
Pope Francis said that this vice is an entry point for the devil and that the consequence is the weakening of the priestly heart.
