have you?
did he say gayness is not a sin?

and anyway, all that stuff he says about social justice is totally in the bible.

so he's not going against doctrine when he says that stuff.


he's a pope being the pope.
i dunno that anybody thought he was doing or saying anything
that we wouldn't expect the pope to do.
