Today we are so grateful for all of you showing us what holiness looks like with your love, tenderness, anger, and virtue. You all are so beautiful and make us better bishops!
#PopeFrancis today told the Catholic Church’s international theological commission to have “faithful creativity” to tradition, warning against the “great danger” of only wanting to go backwards. The Second Vatican Council, he said, is the “sure compass” for the church’s path.
There is someone in your family who needs more love than usual this year. Put aside the usual crap and be a light. Holidays are hard. Love makes them easier.
Read this. Now. And stop with your Dobson bullshit. All of you. Leave them alone. Let them dance. Let them love. Let them be.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

No lies detected.
Denying the truth about queer people, women’s abilities, violence against POC groups, etc. has destroyed countless lives.
Give him credit this was a good tweet.
Apologizing is not enough re: homophobia in the Church:
“Absolution takes away sin, but it does not remedy all the disorder sin has caused… The sinner must still recover his full spiritual health by doing something more to make amends for the sin.” -CCC 1459
Please pray for the eternal rest of the five people who were murdered, and the recovery of the 18 injured, at the shooting at #ClubQ, an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs last night. Pray and work for an end to the evils of homophobia, transphobia and gun violence.
Fuck it. My name is Patrick Flores and I’m a gay Catholic who helps run things over at @vineandfigco. Thanks for coming along for the ride folks keep believing in a better Church!
Hold your loved ones so much closer than you currently are. There’s no such thing as too much love when it comes to the time we’ve been given together.
