I was going to post this under Catholic Caucus but I decided instead to open it up.
To summarize:
Pope Francis, aka Papa Pacha, gave an interview with AP on Tuesday, he said that certain bishops need to go through a process of conversion (whatever that means), that laws criminalizing homosexuality are "unjust", that it's all part of the "human condition", but nonetheless still a sin.
Francis could have said all of the above about suicide, but didn't, as these traditional bishops he went after are against it as well, it is a crime to commit suicide, a sin people have also committed as well (it is also part of the "human confition" that occurs and has also occured after the fall of man), and a mortal sin like homosexuality.
Why then didn't he call laws criminalizing suicide and/or assisted suicide, "unjust"?
Why?
Because of his agenda to try and slow-walk the church to the left and him going after other laws criminalizing other things likd this is too much of a leap for him and his allies right now.
Notice also how there's been hardly a peep from Francis against Fr James Martin's pro-LGBT agitating, or against certain German "Catholic" bishops who promote pretty much do whatever you want, women priests, etc? When does he tell them to go through a process of "conversion" Never.
Francis has positioned himself as the middle-of-the-road pope who is fighting against liberals on the left and traditionalists on the right, but he's as phony as "Middle class Joe [Biden]".
And not a peep either against Nancy Pelosi defying her bishop and going over to Rome to celebrate the Eucharist with Francis present and doing nothing to stop it. Plus he tells Trads to stop being "ideological" while he smiles as he receives ideological pro-abort politicians from Italy, Ireland, and the U.K., and participated in an ecumenical service with heretical pro-abort, pro-one sex marriage Lutherans in Sweden.
Yes but its not God’s condition ...
Many are plans the in the mind of man, but God’s way will be established. Proverbs 19:21
Yes what about the fact that He hates His enemies ???
He doesnt ‘love them as they are’
