WHILE WE KNOW PRIESTS AND NUNS WATCH PORN, POPE FRANCIS CLARIFIES PORN IS FORBIDDEN
Well, we all knew that being a priest or a nun didn’t make them any less human. In fact, the vows of chastity have a long history of making things even more challenging.

Fernández now disavows his own book, saying, “I would certainly not write (that) now.” So things that make you think about wanting to have an orgasm? Like porn? Fobidden….
