But they are also consistent with his overall approach to LGBTQ people and belief that the Catholic Church should welcome everyone and not discriminate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, the wire service included this quote from the pope towards the end of their lengthy story. \u201carticulated the position\u201d:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not a crime.

Jesus Christ famously preached tolerance and understanding for all of God\u2019s children.<\/p>\n<p>According to the pope, discriminating against others is sinful. \u201cIt\u2019s also a sin to lack charity with one another, so what about that?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The church considers all sex, including homosexual, sinful, if it is not in Catholic marriage. So the pope really wasn\u2019t saying anything new \u2014 let alone newsworthy.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, the Catholic Church doctrine says gay people must be welcomed into the church and treated with respect, even if their homosexual acts are considered \u201cintrinsically disordered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This has been said before by the church. In 2021, the Vatican\u2019s doctrinal office decreed that the church could not bless same-sex unions because \u201cGod cannot bless sin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Francis expressed support in 2020 for a mechanism to allow same-sex marriages. \u201cWhat we have to create is a civil union law. That way they are legally covered,\u201d Francis stated in the documentary: \u201cFrancesco,\u201d which debuted at the\u00a0Rome Film Festival, noting he views gay people as children of God. \u201cI stood up for that,\u201d The New York Times <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/10\/21\/world\/europe\/pope-francis-same-sex-civil-unions.html\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>His declaration that homosexuality was not a crime is not the first.
