He endorses same sex unions and wants a civil union law so that they are legally covered.
Didn’t go so far as to endorse same sex marriages via the RC church and didn’t mention anything about male priests unions or female nun unions.
As Archie Bunker would say, “You Catholics think that guy is inflammable”.

As Archie Bunker would say, “You Catholics think that guy is inflammable”. I'm not Catholic but was shocked when I first saw this because I thought he was condoning same-sex marriages which would go against Catholic belief. After taking a look at it, I think it's a great idea and what should've been done a LONG time ago. If somebody wants to have a legal partner in their life so they can can be covered by family insurance or help make those tough decisions after a life-threatening incident or pass along their inheritance after they pass, they should be able to do so regardless of sexual preference. I also think this helps separate that need/issue from the desire to be "married" which is an institution that I feel should be left to those in the church.
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21.
Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

He and the Cardinal next to him weren’t wearing upon making the announcement.

Opinions do vary but The Bible is clear on the matter. Of course nowadays what does Scripture have at all to do with the Universal Church, one could reasonably ask ?

“Is the pope Catholic?” Maybe not.
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

I don't care if you call it a union or a marriage or whatever. I want them to have the same rights afforded married couples.

He's a disgrace to the Catholic faith.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

I'm glad he called it a civil union; which is what it is, IMHO. That's O.K. with me if two people of the same gender want to get hitched. Long as it's called a civil union and not a marriage. Marriage is a union between a man and a woman. There should be no difference in the rights regardless of which type of union it is.
