Catholic Church believes that abortion is an atrocious act, a grave sin and they have certainly excommunicated many for commiting the act.
However, because it is a Holy Year, a year of Jubilee, the Pope wants to show mercy and allow all priests to forgive any woman with a repentant “contrite heart”.
Pope Francis said that women who have had abortions, “bear in their heart the scar of this agonizing and painful decision” and thus mercy is to be shown during Dec. 8 to Nov. 26.

God can forgive anything and doesnt need the Popes permission.
You idiot that’s murder of babies Satan disguised as pope
WTF
Wow
Francis, neither you nor any priest has the right or ability to forgive sins of any kind. Only Jesus has that power, and He paid for it with His blood.
In God’s eyes abortion is a sin, it is taking a life, but it is not the “unpardonable sin” the Bible talks about. Jesus said “verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: But he that shall blapheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation”. (Mark 3:28, 29) The Priest does not have to do the forgiving. Read about the “Priesthood of Christ” Hebrews 4:14-16, & Chapter 5. You don’t have to go through a human priest, we go through Jesus our High Priest. God’s Holy Word says “Let us come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of nend”. (Hebrews 4:16). Human priesthood is imperfect. Jesus died for us and is at the right hand of the Father interceeding our prayers for us. He is all that we need! This priest is leading people away from God’s Truth from His Word. Get into His Word and find out for yourself. Look up the scriptures that I quoted for yourself and let God speak directly to your heart about them. May God bless you in seeking out the Truth from Him Word!
The Amoral Pope Dope needs to go.
What’s wrong with people? Pope is just a man. He can’t forgive You your sins. Only Jesus can forgive you. Ask Him and he will
The Devil said what
Sorry, but the Pope or the priests cannot forgive anything. Only Jesus Christ can do that
