Everyone Will Gradually Accept Blessings For Same-Sex Couples- Pope

Pope Francis is optimistic that, with time, critics of his choice to permit blessings for same-sex couples will comprehend it, with the exception of Africans, whom he deems a “special case.” According to Reuters, the Pope mentioned in an interview with La Stampa that Africans tend to view homosexuality negatively from a cultural standpoint.

“Those who protest vehemently belong to small ideological groups. A special case are Africans: for them homosexuality is something bad from a cultural point of view, they don’t tolerate it.

“But in general, I trust that gradually everyone will be reassured by the spirit of the ‘Fiducia Supplicans’ declaration by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith: it aims to include, not divide,” he said.

In the previous month, a Vatican document titled Fiducia Supplicans (Supplicating Trust) stirred extensive discussions within the Catholic Church and globally by permitting blessings for same-sex couples. Nevertheless, the Vatican explicitly stated that these blessings should not be integrated into regular church ceremonies or associated with civil unions or weddings.

The emphasis was placed on maintaining the traditional view of marriage as being between a man and a woman.

Recently, according to Reuters, Pope Francis acknowledged the resistance the document faced, particularly in Africa, where same-sex activity can lead to severe consequences, including imprisonment or capital punishment in some countries.
