Pope Francis says being homosexual is not a crime. #TheAPInterview #PopeFrancis #Pope

The part they cut out right at the end is his next sentence: “But, it is still a sin. This is an important distinction, between a crime and a sin, as they are not the same.”

I’m paraphrasing, but if you watch the interview that’s very close to what he said. They make it seems like he’s alright and is advocating for homosexuality, when in fact he is not.

[richardmann]

But what they do to the children most certainly is a crime.

[jean-paul]

He probably is himself. Most of the Vatican have seemed to taken the sinful path!

[gaspz]

if it's a sin that means you are committing a crime in God's eyes

[John-vpqy]

It's a sin that goes against this religion

[kmdash]

I think what's the point here is that the Pope is saying that governments shouldn't condem homosexuality as criminal on the basis that it is a sin. Which seems like it should be uncontroversial but here we are.

We should find the original interview WITHOUT the mainstream media manipulations to see exactly what he said. If anyone have the link to the full video, please post it here. If the media once more is misrepresenting his words, Christians around the world must know about it.

Leviticus 18:22, Romans 1:27, Leviticus 20:13, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, 1 Timothy 1:10 etc, etc, false religion has it's origins at the Vatican. 🦇

This ladies and gents, is why the Pope is not even in the Bible. Lol

[iridefast]

Especially between priests and young boys

[johngoldsworthy]

And people wonder why the Catholic Church is regarded as a joke

[ld]

Everyone deserves the opportunity to come out of sin and walk with the Lord.

[randb]

He'll never have to worry about being canonized.

[romano]

Of course being homosexual is not a crime in and of itself. But homosexual behaviour is a mortal sin!

[eipi]

If it was a crime there wouldn't be a single priest on the streets.

[SuperWIDEgaming]

Imagine still caring what the Catholic Church has to say on any subject remotely related to human sexuality.

[convictowens]

Your not judging someone when you say what it is that the Bible says. It's right there in black and white

[mcaugustussapanga]

These guys are changing the Gospel to suit their needs.

[xsportsbangladesh]

Thats why Islam Is Truth Deen In The World.
Allah Is One And Only.

Do you know when the holy father speaks like this, sometimes our American ego gets the better of us and we think he’s speaking to us. But the truth of the matter is, he’s not. He speaking to the world, because in some countries being homosexual is illegal, their are bullied, they are fined, They are jailed and executed. And that definitely is not only a crime, but it goes against our Christian teaching.
