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.

    I love how it’s a “blessing of a union” and NOT the sacrament of marriage, which would mean they are still “living in sin” but we love you and accept you but winks at the right they aren’t married. Separate but equal much? This is hilariously bad pandering and I hope they get flak from all directions. Fuck the catholic church and fuck the vatican.

      Baby steps, dude. Plus, the need the numbers, membership is down and it’s affecting revenue. 🤣

        I get what you’re saying and they are certainly falling forward in some ways but maybe they should actually do the work of redemption for their wrongdoings to address their dwindling membership, not pump out PR.
