EDITOR’S NOTE: The one we have started calling the False Prophet of Revelation, Pope Francis, will also be the one that we feel will authorize and sanction same-sex marriage within the Catholic church corporation. Here we have a classic case of Francis “double speak” where he praises homosexuals for being homosexuals and then immediately issues a statement that his words were “misunderstood”. The LGBT community understands very well what Francis is doing, which is why he has so much of their support.

VATICAN CITY – POPE FRANCIS HAS SENT HIS BLESSING TO A LESBIAN AUTHOR OF CHILDREN’S BOOKS DEALING WITH SAME-SEX FAMILIES, WISHING HER AND HER WIFE WELL IN THEIR WORK, IT EMERGED ON FRIDAY.As Vatican officials scrambled to clarify that the message was simply a standard courtesy which did not signal any change in Church teaching on the subject, the author told AFP she had been pleasantly surprised to have received such a positive response.
Francesca Pardi, who writes and publishes books such as “Why You Have Two Mummies”, wrote to Francis in June after the publishing company she runs with her wife came under fire from Christian groups.
“My books present different types of families without setting any of them up as a model,” Pardi told AFP, praising the pope for having responded in a manner that showed “respect and dignity” towards her, her wife and their four children.
“It was not important for me that it was the pope who said it, I am not a Catholic. But it is important to see that we are not up against a wall. A dialogue is possible,” she added. “Books are to be opened, to be read and to be criticised. What you don’t do is ban them.”

IN HIS MESSAGE, THE POPE WISHED THE TWO WOMEN “EVER MORE FRUITFUL WORK IN THE SERVICE OF YOUNG GENERATIONS AND IN PREPARATIONS AND IN SPREADING AUTHENTIC HUMAN AND CHRISTIANS VALUES.”
Pope Francis has signalled that he wants the Church to adopt a more pragmatic and understanding approach to the situation of believers living in gay relationships, an attitude reflected in his famous “who am I to judge” remark on the subject.
“If someone is gay and he searches for the Lord and has good will, who am I to judge?” Francis told reporters, speaking in Italian but using the English word “gay.” – Pope Francis
But proposals to integrate a shift to a more welcoming tone into the conclusions of an ongoing Church review of its teaching on the family have been opposed by conservatives. Bishops from around the world will return to the subject at a Vatican synod in October which will seek to find a compromise on that and other divisive issues.
Pardi and her partner got married in Spain. Italy is the only major western European country that has no provision for same sex couples to have their unions legally recognised. The centre-left government has pledged to enact legislation introducing the possibility of civil unions by the end of this year but there are no plans to legalise gay marriage. source

A Selected Comment From The Article:
A message from the pope is NEVER a “simple, standard courtesy.” His comment of wishing them “ever more fruitful work in the service of young generations” and saying that what they do by publishing homosexual readers for our young children to read (before sexuality should even be an issue for these young, impressionable minds) represents “authentic and human values” His apostasy is biblical. Whether it’s him or not, he’s certainly qualifies for the position of the false prophet with every word that comes out of his mouth. It isn’t the homosexual we are attempting to ban, it’s the public expression of homosexuality and their anti-christian, heterophobic behavior. It’s also the unconstitutional “rights” and “privileges” by our pagan government and judiciary that we protest against, especially when it costs us our God-given and constitutional rights. This pope is Marxist communist just like his predecessor was a communist, who resigned suddenly and without any truthful explanation. He, like his counterparts in government, support the legalizing of same-sex marriage at the expense of delegitimizing traditional marriage. “What you don’t do is ban them”, and banning books was not the only thing implicit in her comment, but in practice and “law”, there is the banning of the free expression of christian faith IS banned. Even the bakers who were wrongly punished did NOT refuse to serve homosexuals and had many times served the radical homosexuals who sued them. Christians are NOT guilty of being the way they are portrayed by supporters of homosexuals and the homosexuals themselves. It’s homosexual war strategy against Christians, not the other way around.Post Your Comment And Share The Link Below
