Catholic Church believes that abortion is an atrocious act, a grave sin and they have certainly excommunicated many for commiting the act.
However, because it is a Holy Year, a year of Jubilee, the Pope wants to show mercy and allow all priests to forgive any woman with a repentant “contrite heart”.
Pope Francis said that women who have had abortions, “bear in their heart the scar of this agonizing and painful decision” and thus mercy is to be shown during Dec. 8 to Nov. 26.

Oh my gosh, how can they get rid of him SHAME SHAME SHA.E
With that Pope I would be,asha.ed. He has issues
So none of you have heard of penitent prayer for sins. This has been the doctrine since the churches beginning. According to scripture, only faith and acceptance can grant passage into heaven. Priests are only granted the power to absolve sins in Christ’s name…get it straight.
The POPE doesn’t have the authority. Besides Jesus did that already .. All sin past present and future sin. People will not go to hell because of sin but for not accepting the One who died for their sin.
Since when is it ok for this moron to play God
Devil in disguise
Not this retarded pope again, enough is enough!
Only God can make that decision!
Where did this pope come from !!! Never in my life have a heard a pope say what this pope has !!! Shameful ! I was so excited when he came but I am terrible disappointed in him !!
I have read John and remind you that “neither is there salvation in any other name than the name of Jesus!”
