    Is the world that dumb...Everyone knows the Catholic Church is against homosexuality. That is why the Modern Western World hates the Catholic Church. He is crying from the roof tops MERCY because (maybe) judgement is close at hand. You make it sound like the Holy Father doesn't think the act of homosexuality is evil. He understands it very well. In my humble opinion...Papa Francis has been touched by God and is a very powerful mystic. Our Holy Father has the wieght of the world on his shoulders. He has to save SOULS. When he reaches heaven, God will ask, did you feed my sheep. And he will have to answer for his actions. This war is about souls...once you understand that, your whole philosophy will change.

    May Gods Will be Done

    And at the end of our lives, I doubt even one of us will hear, "Great job judging my Pope!"

    Write down these words, My daughter. Speak to the world about My mercy; let all mankind recognize My unfathomable mercy. It is a sign for the end times; after it will come the day of justice. (848)


    Jesus looked at me and said, Souls perish in spite of My bitter Passion. I am giving them the last hope of salvation; that is, the Feast of My Mercy. If they will not adore My mercy, they will perish for all eternity. Secretary of My mercy, write, tell souls about this great mercy of Mine, because the awful day, the day of My justice, is near. (Diary - Divine Mercy in My Soul, 965)

    I desire that priests proclaim this great mercy of Mine towards souls of sinners. Let the sinner not be afraid to approach Me. The flames of mercy are burning Me - clamoring to be spent; I want to pour them out upon these souls. Jesus complained to me in these words, Distrust on the part of souls is tearing at My insides. The distrust of a chosen soul causes Me even greater pain; despite My inexhaustible love for them they do not trust Me. Even My death is not enough for them. Woe to the soul that abuses these [gifts]. (Diary, 50)

    During one of the adorations, Jesus promised me that: With souls that have recourse to My mercy and with those that glorify and proclaim My great mercy to others, I will deal according to My infinite mercy at the hour of their death. (379)

    Today the Lord said to me, My daughter, My pleasure and delight, nothing will stop Me from granting you graces. Your misery does not hinder My mercy. My daughter, write that the greater the misery of a soul, the greater its right to My mercy; [urge] all souls to trust in the unfathomable abyss of My mercy, because I want to save them all. On the cross, the fountain of My mercy was opened wide by the lance for all souls – no one have I excluded! (1182)

    The Lord said to me, The loss of each soul plunges Me into mortal sadness. You always console Me when you pray for sinners. The prayer most pleasing to Me is prayer for the conversion of sinners. Know, My daughter, that this prayer is always heard and answered. (1396-1397)

    The Lord said to me, My daughter, do not tire of proclaiming My mercy. In this way you will refresh this Heart of Mine, which burns with a flame of pity for sinners. Tell My priests that hardened sinners will repent on hearing their words when they speak about My unfathomable mercy, about the compassion I have for them in My Heart. To priests who proclaim and extol My mercy, I will give wondrous power; I will anoint their words and touch the hearts of those to whom they will speak. (1521)

    The Catholic Church is against homosexuality because homosexual acts are gravely depraved and intrinsically disordered.

    I agree with this analogy. So many things in the Church now are like a replay of our Lord' s Passion.

    I also see pope Francis as a Simon of Cyrene, taking up the Cross when Pope Benedict got too fatigued to carry on with it. Maybe that is a reason why things have accelerated since he took over. With a stronger man carrying the weight of the Cross, Christ's cortege reached the top of mount at a quicker pace...

    The Graham family is sounding the alarm quite loud and clearly. Yes they are protestants, but I think God has enlightened their hearts to what we feel is coming. I signed up for these prayers to be sent to me and thought I'd share in case anyone else feels called to pray along with our protestant brothers and sisters: http://www.annegrahamlotz.org/2015/04/30/is-gods-judgment-coming/

    However, our Lord could have called Pope Benedict home and had the same outcome with Pope Francis. This seems to indicate that Pope Benedict has a mission yet to accomplish.

    Give him time and I believe he will. Let him be liked and even praised by the liberal progressives while it lasts. He will know when it is time to speak boldly the teachings of the faith and by the messages coming from heaven, I think it will be this fall.

    Miguel Woites, a confidant of Pope Francis while he was archbishop of Buenos Aires, is denying a widely publicized claim that the then-Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio suggested the endorsement of gay civil unions as an alternative to "homosexual marriage" during a private meeting with fellow bishops in 2010.

    In an interview granted to the Catholic news agency ACI Prensa, Woites said that the story "isn't true. It's a complete error."

    The principle source of the claim, Bergoglio biographer Sergio Rubín, "never said who told him, when they told him," said Woites. "It's not correct to write something like that out of thin air. That (New York Times) article was very criticized by the bishops.

    Prayer to Our Lady of America, Patroness of our Land
    Written at the behest of Our Lady, October 5, 1956 by Sister Mary Ephrem (Mildred Neuzil)

    Oh Immaculate Mother, Queen of our country, open our hearts, our homes, and our land to the coming of Jesus, your Divine Son. With Him, reign over us, O heavenly Lady, so pure and so bright with the radiance of Gods light shining in and about you. Be our leader against the powers of evil set upon wresting the world of souls, redeemed at such a great cost by the sufferings of your Son and of yourself, in union with Him, from that same Savior, Who loves us with infinite charity.

    We gather about you, O chaste and holy Mother, Virgin Immaculate, Patroness of our beloved Land, determined to fight under your banner of holy purity against the wickedness that would make all the world an abyss of evil, without God and without your loving maternal care.

    We consecrate our hearts, our homes, our Land to your Most Pure Heart, O great Queen, that the kingdom of your Son, our Redeemer and our God, may be firmly established in us.

    We ask no special sign of you, sweet Mother, for we believe in your great love for us, and we place in you our entire confidence. We promise to honor you by faith, love, and the purity of our lives according to your desire.

    Reign over us, then, O Virgin Immaculate, with your Son Jesus Christ. May His Divine Heart and your most chaste Heart be ever enthroned and glorified among us. Use us, your children of America, as your instruments of peace among men and nations. Work your miracles of grace in us, so that we may be a glory to the Blessed Trinity, Who created, redeemed, and sanctifies us.

    May your valiant spouse, St. Joseph, with the holy Angels and Saints, assist you and us in "renewing the face of the earth." Then when our work is over, come, Holy Immaculate Mother, and as our Victorious Queen, lead us to the eternal kingdom, where your Son reigns forever as King.
    Amen

    Then why hasn't Pope Francis said anything about the sinfulness of same-sex civil unions, but only "Who am I to judge?"
