Vatican Sources Hint at Growing Internal Rift Over Ban on Homosexual Blessings

According to some source, the Pope might be attacking the document.

VATICAN CITY, March 23, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — Several reports from Vatican insiders suggest that officials within the Vatican, and possibly Pope Francis himself, are angry and distancing themselves from the recent official document which prohibited blessings for same-sex couples.

On March 15, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) responded in the negative to a question about whether the Church had “the power to give the blessing to unions of persons of the same sex.”

Now, Vatican journalist Diane Montagna has noted that the website Messainlatino.it, which broke the news about the Vatican’s recent crackdown on private and traditional Masses, was reporting “post-publication complaints” about the CDF’s document.

The website reported that its sources “at the highest level” had confirmed that the “‘process’ of approving the document was anything but easy.”

It mentioned how “very strong pressure” was used in order to have the document signed “only by the Cardinal Prefect and the Archbishop Secretary, BUT without the approval nominatim of the Holy Father.”

Pope Francis “was informed and gave his assent to the publication” of the document, but did not put his name underneath, as revealed by a note on the document itself.

Furthermore, the Messainlatino.it’s sources added that there were “very strong post-publication complaints from the Dicastery for the Laity, Family and Life, and the Pontifical Academy for Life, as well as numerous foreign Bishops, unfortunately.”

Here’s more of that confusion from the Holy Ghost that Bergoglio babbles about.

Let Pope Frankie write his own bible. He could write verses declaring all forms of debauchery worthy and sacred. The left and the media would absolutely love and worship him, and would likely join his church.

The Catholic church triagulates just like the Clintons. Thet say enough so everyone thinks the church is on their side.

And these are the people Catholics tell us we should rely on to interpret scripture. They can’t even agree themselves.

Only the left is capable of casting NO change at all as a radical change in policy.

They WANT to do it, they just have to figure out how.
