	Outed Gay Clergyman Ousted by Vatican Kazakhstan News.Net October 13, 2007 http://www.kazakhstannews.net/story/290553 A clergyman who appeared on Italian TV earlier this month admitting that he was gay has been suspended by the Vatican. Tommaso Stenico, has confirmed that he appeared on an investigative program about gay priests on an Italian commercial TV channel. He told his interviewer that he did not regard himself as being in a state of sin because of his homosexual activities but was forced to keep them secret because of the church's teaching on the subject. Although Monsignor Stenico's voice was altered, his colleagues identified him. He was filmed inside his private office in the Vatican. The Vatican says he had acted in a way that was incompatible with his status inside the world headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church.
