    Good morning from california. Thank you for speaking out on this topic. Its THE issue of our day...i saw it coming since the 70s and 80s as i lived those years and saw what was happening in the world and the church. Everyone around me seemed not to be aware. We went from...this will NEVER happen...to legalized gay marriage...to gay and trans adopting ...to now blessing the unions...ive seen it all now. Pray pray pray

      We're not blessing unions- the document explicitly denies/forbids that. What is allowed is the blessing of couples (not unions) who desire grace to live according to God's law (which includes living chastly). And there is a difference. And that's not a very difficult distinction to make (between union and couple). There are MUCH more difficult distinctions to be made in theology about much more important matters, eg., distinction between nature and person in Trinitarian and Incarnational theology. This is not difficult theology in Fiducia Supplicans, at least not compared to these heavier matters. Even a mediocre theologian should be able to see this...provided he is WILLING to see it and isn't closing his mind off to seeing it for some irrational bias...

      Right, and the Church is now authorized to bless a mom and a daughter as an s-s “couple” but not at the same time bless their incestuous “union.” After all, the Church would be merely blessing the “positive aspects” of their relationship but not their disordered and objectively sinful “union.” Wink, wink 😉

      They will only be dressed like and perform the duties of deacons.

    Great analysis. Thank you for the provoking thoughts and comments. It's sad to know we are heading down the road of perdition. Moral confusion is not from God. Pray for the shepherds of Bishop Strickland and Cardinal Burke to lead us in this fight for the sacredness of marriage and the sanctity of life. Saint Lucia of Fatima prophesized, " The final or decisive battle between the Kingdom of God and Satan will be over marriage and family." I was in this battle 16 years ago on a pilgrimage where God intervened to save my marriage. My life has been transformed completely. Pray for the conversion of hearts.

A report-video came out as you know showing the countries that support the pope's same-sex blessing document, some that will not, some that remainn silent. Canadians are scandalized, heartbroken, concerned, greaty disturbed at the lack of leadership of the Archbishops and Bishops against so many immoral things, and now this Fiucia Fiasco document. What can Canadians do to get Archbishops, Bishops to speak out against this mortally sinful document. They are great for taking photo ops for Women's League's, retirement homes, but lack leadership.

    After pope Benedict’s death pope Francis has changed and became more aggressive. To announce same sex blessings right before Christmas to me it was disrespect and unbelief in the meaning of Christmas. Which is all about God’s Creation. This is an attack on God’s Creation. This is serious.

    Ambiguity and confusion is not from the Holy Spirit. The clergy need to get back to the salvation of souls. Blessing ‘irregular’ couples completely overlooks the danger this has for the individual souls.

    My mom, may she rest in peace, if she was alive, she would be utterly disgusted with this doctrine. She was a devout Catholic and as someone who is following in her footsteps, I too am shocked that the Pope would sign such a disgusting evil declaration. Weird times we're living in. It's like blessing criminals but not the crime. They have permission to continue to do crime but it won't matter as long as they're blessed.Doesn't make sense.

    The last topic - evangelization - as a missionary for many years the Francis papacy leads any sane missionary to solitude, the desert and wilderness. Pope Francis makes spreading Catholicism extremely difficult and a constant task of excusing the contradictions, scandals and dwindling of integrity.

    Just two points. First is that God is possibly permitting His enemies to be emboldened to surface so that they expose themselves and their positions enabling the faithful Catholics to take necessary actions with laser precision. Secondly is that we must not fear the mischief of these agents or collaborators of evil since we embrace Faith, Hope and Charity… not Faith, pope and Charity.

    Of course blessing people is not the problem. The doc is about blessing COUPLES as a unit not as individuals. Priests can certainly pray with these couples, but the very act of extending one’s hands over a couple can’t help but appear to be blessing the relationship, regardless of the priest’s intentions.

    Fr. Gerald, it's important to note that #5 in the Fiducia Supplicans, states, "Responsum of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, which states that the Church does not have the power to impart blessings on unions of persons of the same sex."

      @@femaleKCRoyalsFan The word "couple" is completely different from the word "union". Fiducia Supplicans #31 "couple" refers to 2 persons, not the union of 2 peoples. #31 discussed pastoral blessings not the sacramental blessings. Pastoral blessings are for those who seek to live holier life but need to be free themselves from bondage of sin. A pastoral blessing, In normal situations, God can send grace to those people to help them be free of their sinful relationship.
