    Am I misreading? leo is saying he does NOT agree with the cardinal saying it’s fine for same-sex marriage?

      Yeah. Cause he’s still a homophobic piece of shit, he’s just an anti-war homophobic piece of shit. We should not be surprised by this.

          To his credit he is slightly less homophobic than is the norm for the Catholic Church. But that’s kind of like saying someone is less fascist than Mussolini. Objectively better than the alternative, but not actually good.

            Yeah, I’m sure he can turn a blind eye on gay sex if it’s between a grown man and a little boy.

      OK, for marriage. Not OK for unmarried relationships. That’s how I read it as well.

      “The Holy See has made it clear that we do not agree with the formalized blessing of couples, in this case, homosexual couples, as you asked, or couples in irregular situations, beyond what was specifically, if you will, allowed for by Pope Francis in saying all people receive blessings,” he said
      

      Or, without all the fluff

      “The Holy See has made it clear that we do not agree with the formalized blessing of couples ... beyond what was specifically ... allowed for by Pope Francis in saying all people receive blessings,” he said
      

      So if Francis said it was ok; it’s fine. But it seems like Francis said it wasn’t fine.

      At the same time though, I’ve started to loose lose trust in media outlets and idk how reputable NewsWeek
