Skirting the truth again? It was Francis who first brought up the topic on the plane ride back from Rio.

It was Francis who had the question brought up in the pre-SinNod survey that was distributed worldwide.

It was Francis who praised Kasper’s heretical proposition as “theology on its knees.

After being voted down by the bishops, it was Francis who ordered the proposal to be printed anyway.

It is Francis, who has said the topic will again be brought up at the next SinNod.

"Bringing up the topic" does not mean he wants the bishops to support it. It could be he wants the bishops to get all the controversy out into the open and soundly refute it.

Plenty of FReepers, including yourself and myself, have brought up, even posted, topics which we wanted to be picked apart and considered critically, and repudiated in whole or in part--- not endorsed whole hog.

And your previous statement, which was that Pope Francis is "a pope who is doing his best to sanction adultery" is untrue and ought to be retracted.
