The words of Pope Francis have been distorted by the secular press. He did not say the Church would allow abortion, Euthanasia, artificial contraception, homosexual acts, etc. He just reiterated what we always have known: sins can be forgiven in Confession through a priest. But one of the prime promises a penitent must make to obtain absolution is to not commit the sin again, just like the women adulterer who was going to be stoned and He forgave her sin.
I miss Pope Benedict XVI, ein Bayr
