Wow and I’m not even catholic!
True, even though us lowly protestants don’t do the priestly absolution thing, we still recognize that there is no forgiveness without repentance.
Who goes to confession without a resolve to repent? How could a priest know that the person won’t repent? Francis needs to give a few real world examples.
It appears that the Catholic Church is in lock-step with world leaders in the march to the end of civilization. Catholics need to take a close look at that bunch of cardinals who select popes. Something has rotted from the inside.
