Pope Leo XIV voices his objections to abortion and gay marriage. Who stands with Pope Leo?
From the link: "[Pope Leo] affirmed the church's definition of family as being founded on the “stable union between a man and a woman”.
He also said both unborn children and the elderly had inherent dignity as creations of God.
The pronouncements offer[ed] a clear articulation of core Catholic teachings on marriage and abortion."
Pope Leo also "has said that women cannot be ordained as priests."

Not on those issues.

Do you draw any lines when it come to these issues?
Even late term abortion of a viable fetus or any sort of sexual perversion?
Translation: Ned does not believe in separation of church and state.

So, do you stand with Leo or not?
Once we have your answer, I will engage with you on separation of church and state.
Actually, everyone who posts and reads this forum knows what your answer is. You (and Tyrone) don't actually stand with Pope Leo. Like Tyrone, you just use Pope Leo and the Catholic Church for your political gain, and you pretend to stand with him and the Church when it suits you, and when it does not, you repudiate him and the Church. But, it would be nice for you to have the courage to admit your true position on Church Doctrine primacy vs. Democrat Platform primacy.
You use popes, Catholicism, and ultimately, God, when they suit you politically. You ignore them
when they don't. This is how you effortlessly shift from quoting the Beatitudes to wishing death upon the unvaxxed. I think you're about as much of a Christian as Trump is.
Bwahahahaha

How expansive is your definition of the word “inhumane?”

You're the last person to lecture someone about pro-life

Pay attention, Mark...it's Pope Leo XIV who's lecturing "Pro-Lifers" about inhumane
treatment of immigrants...where do you stand on that issue?
The topic in this thread is abortion and gay marriage. Do you stand with Leo or not?

LOL...the topic of "Pope Leo XIV" got started with my thread...answer my question...then I'll be
pleased to address yours.
You have helped me make my point. Thank you.

And you accuse others of being disingenuous...answer the question I posed first about Pope Leo XIV..
then we can discuss any other issue you'd like...
Tyrone is here to tell YOU that he thinks you should be a cafeteria Catholic…
…in a mess hall where the menu selections are curated for you…
…by the DNC.
What's your response to Pope Leo XIV's admonition to "Pro-Life" Catholics about inhumane treatment
by the Trump administration against immigrants? Put your skin in the game, Knute.
You can't ignore this reinforcement that you're evil.

Answer the question...I'll respond to your accusation in another thread...Where do you stand with
what Pope Leo had to say about the treatment of immigrants by Trump and his administration?...With Leo or against him?...if against, explain why.
