Sex Outside Marriage, Cheating Not A Serious Sin – Pope Francis by blogger4: 7:58pm On Dec 08, 2021 |
Following the Resignation of Michel Aupetit, a French prelate of the Catholic Church who was Archbishop of Paris from 2018 to 2021, who resigned following reports of a relationship with a woman in 2012, Catholic Pope Francis says sex outside marriage is ‘not the most serious sin.’ ‘Sins of the flesh are not the most serious,’ the 84-year-old pontiff said during a press conference aboard the papal plane on Monday. Pride and hatred are ‘the most serious,’ Pope Francis added. Francis made the comment in answer to a question about the Archbishop of Paris Michel Aupetit who resigned last week over an ‘ambiguous’ relationship with a woman. According to Dailymail.co.uk, Although Aupetit, 70, denied the relationship was sexual – Catholic priests take vows of celibacy – he resigned to prevent rumours from damaging the Church. A diocese spokeswoman said at the time that ‘he had an ambiguous behaviour with a person he was very close to’, adding that it was ‘not a loving relationship’, nor sexual. ‘When the gossip grows, grows, grows and takes away the reputation of a person, that man will not be able to govern… and that is an injustice,’ Francis said. ‘This is why I accepted Aupetit’s resignation, not on the altar of truth, but on the altar of hypocrisy,’ the pope said on the plane back from a trip to Greece. ‘I ask myself, what did Aupetit do that was so serious he had to resign? If we don’t know the accusation, we cannot condemn,’ the pope added, urging journalists to investigate. He said Aupetit had been condemned by ‘public opinion, rumours. But what did he do? We know nothing’. However, the pope referenced a breach of the sixth commandment – a ban on adultery – saying it was ‘not total, but little caresses and massages he gave to his secretary’. ‘That is a sin. But it is not the most serious because sins of the flesh are not the most serious,’ he said. He added: ‘Aupetit is a sinner. As I am, as was Peter, the bishop on whom Christ founded his Church.’ SOURCE: https://www.detouchingstory.com/2021/12/08/sx-outside-marriage-cheating-not-a-serious-sin-pope-francis/ |

Even the Catholic Pope doesn't know what it means to be a sinner for him to say that Peter was also one. |

I'm afraid many Catholics will come and defend the Pope rather than standing with the truth... Many don't even know what to say because they read more of pamphlets than the bible... They are the ones who will be quoting, sharing and mentioning this post up and down... |

The world and everything in it is complicated, the best religion is to have a personal relationship with your creator and embrace humanity |
