'Homosexual people have a right to be in a family. They're children of God and have a right to a family.' Pope Francis has declared support for civil unions for same-sex couples for the first time, according to the Catholic News Agency.

The Pope made the historic remarks in a new documentary film,"Francesco," which was released in Rome on Wednesday.

"Homosexual people have a right to be in a family. They're children of God and have a right to a family. Nobody should be thrown out or be made miserable over it," the Pope said in the film, the Catholic News Agency reported.Francis has suggested in past interviews that he is not against civil unions, but this is the first time as Pope that he has directly come out in favor of them.

As Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Francis advocated for same-sex civil unions as an alternative when Argentina was discussing whether to legalize same-sex marriage.

POOP FRANCIS IS A WOLF IN SHEEP SKIN!!

Si Pope Francis

Jimparedes So ashamed of this Pope, what’s next abortion?

Jimparedes misleading, not true...

Alamin ang pagkakaiba ng CIVIL UNION at MARRIAGE

So? We deserve the bare minimum? thx cnn very cool I agree

mad respect for this pope

kassypajarillo I have been suspecting this pop

For we are insulting his words from the Holy Bible. His our creator he created us. If that so oh, Lord, let all the people have pure hearts in your name must be save and keep us safe shield is with your love, and please don't let them vanish with them when time come. Amen.

Please be guided in his name.

senwouldnot nice

I asked you one more time is the Holy Bible is a true story that happen in the history.

Don't you ever tell us that he go for it. I think it is miss understanding.

Remember the story of one city on 🔥 in Abraham time! Our creator never created men to men. But man and a woman is taken out from his body.

Can I get a what what

margarethfuller The Pope is NOT Jesus.

The arguments of homophobic neanderthals are so pathetic.

From Fr. Jim Achacoso: “How to Read Pope Francis' Stand on Same Sex Unions. 1) Beware of stitched-up quotes. Remember the funny videos of Trump singing, made up of REAL segments from MANY speeches of varied contexts. That's what this new brouhaha is all about.

silaw_sang Huh his own agendas finally coming to light. Fada lowd see dis

Maybe we shud not forget how GOD treat the people in Sod’om & Gomorrha. How he punished the inhabitants for their wrong doings. Lets also read the Book of Daniel the Book of Isaiah & the Book of Revelation so we cud not be mislead by the PROSTITUTE.

Just remember there is a beginning of all!

na windang na ang mga catholics religion pinunu pa nila ang deklara. Anu na qng mangyayari.

Woahhh...I can't believe how open our pope is ... I simply admire his courage and love to accept the homosexual people in our society ❤️

Maybe this can help. Read :)

Butt hurt yung mga irrelevant homophobic cheap Catholics sa sinabi ni Pope Francis pero wag ka sila yung adik sa panonood ng porn baka more than twice pa magjakol yang mga yan.

“I will punish the world for its evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; I will put an end to the pomp of the arrogant, and lay low the pompous pride of the ruthless.” Isaiah 13:11

NOT YALL TELLING THAT THE POPE IS WRONG 😭😭😭😭 THE POPE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 EAT SHIT BABY 💞💕💞💕💕

watch them reserved catholics cancel the pope looool when the pope is actually socially aware and woke than most ppl who also preaches the word of the lord 🥴

How does the Pope explain Sodom and Gomorrah. Careful for all we know he does not believe the bible anymore.

y'all reeks in homophobia and it's not cute

kadaming lumabas na homophobic sa thread nato. the pope said gay rights bye ✨

Self-denial and full acceptance of Jesus-this is what true repentance and acceptance mean. Remember what's written in I Corinthians 6:9-11, that anyone who does any forms of unrighteousness (including homosexuality, this is what God said) will not inherit the kingdom of God!

Ok na po ako sa mga homosexual but yung i support ang same sex couple ng pope sorry po pero wala po sa bible na pede maging couple ang same sex...

dejeveux ako event coordinator mo sa kasal hahahah

Mga sarado ang isipan at mga hipokrito lang naman ang nagsasabi na ang pagiging LGBT ay kasalanan. Pare-pareho lang tayong makasalanan mga tao kaya sana wag natin husgahan ang mga nasa LGBT Community.

Why 'civil union' and not church union? In effect, the Pope is asking the civil government to recognize same-sex unions, but how about the Catholic church?

Civil union promotes monogamy.

I wonder what’s the opinion of pope on people who changed genitals.

eke_tess peperised come and see something

EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeraNOW endsars LekkiGenocide

schfinkes Did you just hear that All the fake Christians and Evangelicals heads exploded all at once

I can't believe our Pope is more open-minded than my homophobic religious countrymen. I guess I'll drop this in the arguments whenever they quoted a bible that being gay and the same relationship is a sin.

End times

I agree. Who are we to judge? Bahala na ang Diyos sa kanila, but as human being we need to respect them and their choices.

This isn't the Pope merely being political but honest. Gay or straight we are all God's children and who are we to judge?

Papa Francisco gets it right💗 KANSAS IS ENTIRELY IN PLAY... BARBARA BOLLIER CAN WIN I CAN UPSET KS-01, the key with my WRITE-IN campaign is not money, but the website. Please encourage & invite everyone to visit & share: 🏳️‍🌈mike🇺🇸is The People's Republican

Leviticus 20:13 If a man has sexual relations with another man, they have participated in a detestable act. Both men are to be put to death, for their blood is on them.

So, what's next? A new SYNOD? New catechism? Or this is just a numbing balm (akin to noted) to appease the agitators, err, progressive and inclusive elements in the current sounding board?

Catholic Church and Christianity are completely different

I’m not Catholic but I love this Pope. I think he is the most enlightened Pope in my lifetime. Thank you Pope Francis. Love is Love.

Time to change religion or time to change the pope

Finally. Tapos hindi alam ng mga madaming sinasabi ang difference between marriage and civil union. Ang dami nilay say as if sila ang gagawa ng civil union, mga may kabit naman yung ibang madaming say na homophobic so pls shut up. Pwede ba? Enough!
