Pope Francis is upending catholic tradition once again, and many of his followers aren’t happy.
Pope Francis was selected to lead the Catholic church in 2013, after several years of scandal-prone leadership from his predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI. But it wasn’t long until Francis began stirring controversy himself.
Unlike his predecessor — who was often characterized as “too conservative” — Francis immediately began liberalizing the Catholic faith. He suggested that his followers apologize to gay people and validated the beliefs of competing religions, claiming that all religions worship the same god. Then, in perhaps the most bizarre development of last year, the pontiff began an unprompted feud with Donald Trump over immigration policy.
So it should come as no surprise that Pope Francis is once again upsetting many of his diehard followers with an announcement that seems to go against fundamental Catholic values.
See more on the “grave sin” the Pope says women can be forgiven for on the next page:
These men cannot forgive anyone. They are just sinful people as we all are. At the throne of grace is the only place we can be forgiven including the Pope
So I guess this means that a woman can murder her baby and repent and get back in the good graces of the church, but God help the woman who gets a divorce and can only watch communion and not participate. Make sense? I think not!
Only our Heavenly Father can forgive sins when we ask in the name of Jesus Christ. This may just be the last Pope before Christ returns.
I would never tell my sins to this nut
DOES POPE BENEDICT OBEY BLINDLY POPE FRANCIS? NO, NO, NO
SO YOU DO NOT OBEY POPE FRANCIS EITHER
GOD BE PRAISED
ALWAYS
ONLY JESUS. Don’t waste your time with anyone else. Those who say they have the power to forgive sin are simply followers of Satan.
The Pope = Fucking False Profit
Grave sin? Is that a polite term for necrophilia?
Priests are just people. Nothing extraordinary. They’re not God. Although I think this Pope thinks he is. Not!
He scares me
