Pope Francis has formally approved allowing priests to bless same-sex couples. The Vatican issued a new document explaining a radical change in Vatican policy by insisting that people seeking God’s love and mercy shouldn’t be subject to “an exhaustive moral analysis” to receive it.

      They already did that when he told people to be nice to trans people. He didn’t tell them to embrace them into their lives, just treat them nice and they lost their shit about it.

          If Jesus had access to pantaloons or blue jeans he would have rocked them.

          No store bought wine though. He was a foot guy.

        To be fair, he said be nice. Modern christianity demands brutal suppression of anyone you don’t like.

      “Not my pope” was a common slogan for American catholics when he recommended taking the scientists advice and masking up during lockdown.
