My professional career in Vatican, my broken dream

2015, October the 3rd.
- The previous day to the Synod on the family prepared for ignoring and offending the dignity of LGBTIQ people, I came out of the closet as a protest and denunciation of homo/lesbo/trans-phobia of the Catholic Church, and of Vatican in particular. As a result, I was automatically eliminated and suspended as priest by the Church.
