Too bad the Papal Mass in Philly was last week. Vatican spokesmen may have had some problems explaining Francis’ statements and squaring them with today’s Gospel from Mark and reading from Genesis.
I mean his past statements on divorce and homosexual conduct. Still he seems to speak to please his audience. I the US he all but disowned Church teachings on family, marriage, and conduct. Unlike Christ who consistently spoke Truth and sought to engage those who challenge those who stood opposed.
"The Church is also called to defend the sacredness of life, of every life; in defending the unity and indissolubility of the conjugal bond.” - Pope Francis
