: Religion ClausePope Francis Endorses LGBT Civil Union Laws
By Howard M. Friedman
Catholic News Agency reported yesterday that in a newly released documentary titled Francesco, Pope Francis called for the passage of civil union laws covering same-sex couples. This is inconsistent with the positions of prior Popes and with the views of the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. In a portion of the documentary devoted to pastoral care for LGBT individuals, the Pope said:
Homosexuals have a right to be a part of the family. They?re children of God and have a right to a family. Nobody should be thrown out, or be made miserable because of it....
What we have to create is a civil union law. That way they are legally covered. I stood up for that.
