Campaigners praise signs Catholic Church is beginning to show 'respect,' but warn much work is ahead to achieve equality.

The use of the term appears to mark a significant change in the Vatican’s attitude towards gay Catholics, which it has previously described as people with “homosexual inclinations” and “homosexuals.”
Grancis DeBernardo, executive director of the New Ways Ministry, which advocates equality for LGBT Catholics, welcomed the move, but said it did little to solve inequalities within the church.

Oh, there is a lot more to be embarrassed about when it comes to Catholicism than the pope.
