Juan Pablo II inherited an apartment in Madrid and one sold it to a homosexual couple

I dress in 20minutos.es
So believing age Alberto's neighbor that, to his death, left in heredity his apartment of the street of Madrid The Pigeon to the very same Pope Juan Pablo II. It was the year 93 and in Spain not even the laws of couples de facto still existed.
Five years later Alberto, who was living along with his fiancé under the apartment of deceased and catholic missis Patrocinio, noticed that it had moisture in the roof. On having tried to contact with the proprietor of the building, the representative happened of bruces with the apostolic forerunner of the Holy See in Spain, that is to say, at that time of his holiness in our country.: “You it would it like staying?”. The sale offer on the part of Monsignor Lajos Kada was immediate.
Whenever we were teaching him the writing of the apartment with the name of the Pope the poor person was blessing Saying and fact. Little seemed to be important for him then to the Vatican that the house bequeathed to the Pope by a pious Christian was going to turn into the hearth of a couple whose nature was committing an outrage against the human creation, as years later the Woytila successor referred to the homosexual unions, Benedicto XVI. “The Church does not love us, but to carry on business, yes”, affirms Alberto.
In the course of time, like many other couples, Alberto separated and met Miguel Ángel, his current husband and by chance (or not) president of the Group of Lesbians, Gays, Transsexual and Bisexual of Madrid (COGAM).
They began to live together and initiated several reforms. The manager of carrying out them was a born very catholic boy in Poland, homeland of Juan Pablo II. “Whenever we were teaching him the writing of the apartment with the name of the Pope the poor person was crossing itself”, remembers entertaining Alberto.
Both married on July 11, 2008, three years after the coming into effect of the law that was allowing the weddings between persons of the same sex.
"A problem of homophobia"
“The law means rights equality for all the citizens”, tells Miguel Ángel. “The things have changed for good. 10 divided certain years ago were saying that we were dogs and cats, and now there is major acceptance, more visibility, and we can marry... Nevertheless, especially out of the big cities, we keep on having a problem of homophobia in this country, especially if we have an ecclesiastic hierarchy that is the whole day erre that erre”, he adds.
In his speech of end of year the Pope compared the homosexuality with the threat of the climate change When the law of the marriages gays was still in parliamentary step the People's Party and the Spanish Church they put the scream in the sky. “It is like adding pears and apples”, said Ann Botella of that time, wife of the ex-prime minister José Maria Aznar. Soon the PP appealed the norm before the Constitutional Court, alleging that was denaturing “the basic institution of the marriage”. To today the law still waits for judgment.
While, in the Vatican, the Pope made use of his speech of end of year in 2008 to compare the homosexuality with the threat that the climate change supposes for the planet. And it, at the time that it was pushing back to approve the proposed universal decriminalization of the homosexuality that 66 countries presented in the UNO days earlier.
Seen the seen, and of having known it, it is possible that Mrs Patrocinio had thought it two times before bequeathing his house to the holiest father. Amen.
