Youre dodging now. The whole article is about cohabitation and it, and other sources both you and I have sourced, correctly quoted Francis as stating: Ive seen a lot of fidelity in these cohabitations, and I am sure that this is a real marriage, they have the grace of a real marriage because of their fidelity, but there are local superstitions, etc. Im sorry you continue to ignore that.
Ok, you be sorry;
The whole article is entitled "Updated: Most marriages today are invalid, Pope Francis suggests." I actually posted much more of it than the original poster, precisely to point out the fake propaganda aspect of the original post. So when I read "Pope Francis said Thursday that many sacramental marriages today are not valid, because couples do not enter into them with a proper understanding of permanence and commitment." that does not tend to support your assertion that the whole article is about cohabitation ...

No the whole article is titled “Francis urges priests to welcome cohabitating couples in the style of the Gospel”.
Yet, you proceeded to make a fool of yourself. Please continue. You’re very amusing.

Please clarify how the same quote says something different in your article.
