I have no problem with the Pope washing the feet of any sinner. I have no problem with the Pope extending charity to any person, regardless of that person's sexual orientation, regardless of that person's station in life and regardless of what crimes that person may have committed.

Just please do not ordain them or marry them to one another.

I have no problem with him washing different people’s feet, etc. except when he does it on Holy Thursday in the rite intended to imitate Jesus’s washing of the Apostles’ feet. The Francine pontiff does not have enough respect for the liturgy to follow it.

He could publicly wash all these other people’s feet at some other time; if only he would do so rather than dishonor and denigrate a beautiful and historical Church ritual followed by his predecessors.

Also, his washing the transsexual’s feet and allowing the transsexual to receive Communion—all filmed and publicized by the Vatican’s own TV channel—can only confuse the faithful about this sinful lifestyle and make the way easier for advocates of other abuses that are abominable—such as “gay marriage.”

Unfortunately—without Francis’ ordaining them—we already have the scandal of “gay” priests. However, Francis defends them, such as his right-hand man, Msgr. Battista Ricca. For a militant homosexual’s take on Msgr’s actions in 2013, see http://www.back2stonewall.com/2013/07/pope-franciss.html
