During the Angelus of Pope Francis on Sunday, August 13, a banner appeared carrying the text "Gay and lesbian pilgrims greet Pope Francis". According to the Communist Italian paper Il Manifesto it belonged to a group of [dissidenting] "Catholic" homosexualists who undertook a march from Siena to Rome. Vatican security did not intervene to remove the provocation.

There’s so much secondhand and gossipy talk coming out of the Roman branch of Christendom it’s hard to make it out, but it sure seems the new Pope is fond of these folks.
To me, it seems that means he’s in bed with the homo agenda... OR that he’s mighty sure that he’s got a workable agape love answer to them for getting out of that kind of practice by transcending its fake love with the true love of God.
As a crazy evangelical, I’m praying that it’s the latter. But God knows what the story really will turn out to be.
Maybe it’s his version of:
Love the sinner, but despise the sin...............
We can always pray for that, and across all Christendom too.
Over the years I have come to a better and better understanding of what the homo world view is. It is a tough nut to crack, spiritually speaking.
The only thing that can conquer it is a true love from God superior to the false love the homo practice offers. It really is a toe to toe face off between God and Satan, and lukewarm religion needn’t even apply.
Short of that, through mere human pressure we can push it back into the closet of decently hiding it, perhaps even only in the head, but God isn’t happy because it continues to exist in that closet. Love is the only thing that will fetch the sinner out of the closet into the courts of God.
