The Vatican’s statement, approved by Pope Francis and issued by its top doctrinal office, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, said God “does not and cannot bless sin”.
Drachma LGBTI said it was disappointed at the combative statement that the Church will not bless same-sex unions, which it referred to as a “choice”, described them as sinful, and that they “cannot be recognized as objectively ordered” to God’s plans.
