The Pope’s new Spanish Cardinal has called homosexuality a physical “defect” that can be cured, it has been reported.Fernando Sebastián

Equating homosexuality to his own high blood pressure, Fernando Sebastián told the Spanish newspaper Diario Sur on Monday that: “Homosexuality is a defective manner of expressing sexuality, because [sex] has a structure and a purpose, which is procreation.

“A homosexual who can’t achieve this (procreation) is failing,” he said.

He continued: “Our bodies have many defects. I have high blood pressure.”

He added that calling homosexuality a defect was “not an insult” but is instead helpful because it is “possible to recover and become normal with the right treatment.”
