for more on the fallout, here's our religion editor aleem maqbool. slowly over the last week we started to hear reports he had used this phrase and it was in the context of being asked whether gay men should be allowed into seminaries to train for the priesthood, as long as they remain celibate like other catholic priest were meant to do and his answer was, no, and then he used this phrase that was already too much of an air of this in the church. and even though there are some who defended him who attended the conference, some bishops who are defending in marseille that he did say the words, but he did not know quite what he was saying and how offensive the words were, but while he has made some mistakes in italian in the past, he was brought up in an italian immigrant households and was an italian speaker at and was an italian speaker at and it was inconceivable that he did not know the gravity of the words he was using. it's election day in south africa, with polls in the rainbow nation opening in just a few hours' time. at stake are all 400 seats
