Francis released another homosex endorsement on July 24 in a VaticanNews.va podcast called PopeCast, in which he responded to handpicked "young people".
Giona, 22, a male transvestite from Italy, told Francis, "I'm a trans homosexual and disabled boy, I felt torn between faith and transgender identity, trans and believer, once at the crossroads I chose love [=sin]."
Francis replied that God is "always close" and that "he walks with us, even when we are sinners. He loves us as we are [sinning]."
He added that "sex is one of the most beautiful things given by God", while God reveals in the Bible that homosexuality is an abomination.

It is true that God loves us even when we’re eating out of pig trough, but he wants us to sin no more and to avoid the near occasions of sin.
While he has tacitly supported abortion by not condemning scumbags abortion fanatics like Biden and Pelosi it is only a matter of time before Pope Marx fully voices his support for abortion as “sacred ground.”
Well said.
I missed the Gospel in which Christ commands people to remain steeped in their sin........
I thought he already did.
Jesus as a postmodern psychotherapist.
God doesn’t love you into hell though. He welcomes you with open arms every second of your earthly life, and you reject Him via sin. You have to repent to love Him back.
I’m not a theologian, but I’ve read that God’s love for His children doesn’t end at the border of hell. Indeed, it is the sinner who separated himself from God and effectively chose hell.
God does love us all but he sure doesn’t love some of the things we do and has made that evident in Scripture.
