there’s been a few posts here and there about Francis’ “support for gay unions in Argentina”.(paraphrased) Anyone wanna provide proof of that?

I certainly have no interest in providing proof for it, and I have not made the claim here. But it was reported, with specifics, in the MSM.

On Gay Unions, a Pragmatist Before He Was a Pope

By suggesting in 2010 that the church in Argentina support civil unions for gay couples, Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio revealed himself to be a deal maker willing to compromise.

Alright, thanks. There may be some contradiction between the two there after all. I still don’t know for a fact, since this is the NY Slimes. But I don’t think it’s reasonable to say at this point there can’t be any contradiction. There very well could be.

The preponderance of the evidence seems there might, at least between the two men when both were Cardinals.

Pray for both him and the Church this Lent, I guess that’s the only other thing to say at this point.
