The Vatican has overtaken Pope Francis' remarks in support of gay unions, saying the pope's words have been removed’ from the context.
In
a documentary aired for the first time on October 21, the pope was shown saying
that gay couples have a "right to a family." Opposition to
homosexuality was seen’ as a significant change from the Catholic Church's
long-standing opposition, but the Vatican has so far refrained from commenting
formally on the incident.
In
an internal document about the bishop, first posted on Twitter by Papal
biographer Austin Ivory, the Vatican says that the answers to the two different
questions of the pope as a single part without providing a proper context. Was’
edited. A Vatican official confirmed the authenticity of the document.
The
document said the pope was referring to the right of gay people to be accepted’
by their families, while the documentary said it rejected gay marriages, which
was a non-violent response. ۔
The
two-page letter seeks to dispel the pope's groundbreaking comments on the
documentary. He says the pope was referring to the legal framework in some
countries where civil unions were allowed’ between gay couples and was not
breaking the church's ideology.
