Ping!
He lamented that there are so many “new forms” of unions which are “totally destructive and limiting the greatness of the love of marriage.”
Outstanding!

I suppose Elton John will be retracting his endorsement any second now...
You sure that’s not a pic of Stan Laurel?
A much more santified statement:
Matthew 19:46
“Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said,
‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one
flesh’ ? So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.
Glad to hear him say it. I hope he stands by his guns and doesn’t back peddle.
““What is being proposed is not marriage, it’s an association. But it’s not marriage! It’s necessary to say these things very clearly and we have to say it!” Pope Francis stressed.”
Actually, he was mistranslated! Here is what he actually said...
“What is being proposed is engagement to be married, it’s the first step. But it’s not marriage! It’s necessary to say these things very clearly and we have to say it!” Pope Francis stressed.
“It is necessary to say these things very clearly...”
Well, that is a new one
everything should either to be said clearly or await revision until it can be!
His Popeness is correct this time. But why all the mistranslations lately of what he actually says? So many corrections floating about.
Thats as sanctified as it “gets”, yes.
He wore a funny hat too.
“His Popeness is correct this time. But why all the mistranslations lately of what he actually says? So many corrections floating about.”
Is he only correctly translated when FRoman Catholics agree with the translation...?
Perhaps he is completely wrong, but the poor translation made it come out sounding right...
Thanks for posting this.
The heavy players (meaning the wise, educated and refined scholars) inside the Catholic Church are just beginning to get a clear message out.
Here’s one from 3 days ago regarding Pope Francis’ message on marriage:

And here is one that to me is a keeper, a real gem:

Why is the Pope revisiting this subject when Holy Scripture (Lord Jesus Christ Himself) has already settled it once for all time?
