I don’t dispute that he met with them. I went on a trip (along with my husband and granddaughter and about 300 other bike riders) with our friend who is attracted to other men sexually. Had he and a partner been sleeping together in our RV it would have been a problem but he didn’t and it wasn’t. He knows who I am, a conservative Catholic, and I know who he is, a child of God. We disagree about the death penalty. He’s a huge proponent, I’m still thinking about it. He loathes Obama. On that we agree. Another long time friend called and wanted advice about how to financially protect his long time partner. I gave him advice. He also knows who I am etc.

My thinking is that the Holy Father should have either openly denounced same-sex "marriage" when he addressed Congress, or stayed out of it altogether.

I would be very interested to know who got Kim Davis the invite and whether the Pope knew who she was and her situation before the reception.

I certainly don't fault Francis for having an old friend who happens to be a homosexual. However, he also needs to realize that he is a public figure and EVERYTHING he did in the U.S. was going to be subject to intense scrutiny and debate.

He’s fiscally conservative and on most social issues conservative. Well educated and a former business owner.
