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.

No they do not think it’s right to molest children. You hear about only what happens sometimes in the Catholic religion, because there are 90 million Catholics, but it happen every day and in other churches too. Why doesn’t our president stop the molestation, rape and sex trafficking that ISIS is doing evert day? Murdering, beheading, burying babies alive, and much more. He COULD STOP IT IF HE WANTED TO. YET SOME STILL THINK HE’S A GREAT MAN. I T H INK HE IS THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL! JUST ANOTHER STINKING MUSLIM !!!
ONLY GOD can forgive you IDIOT!!! You had better read the Bible!!!
i never thought that “Satan” would be interested in people who forgive abortion or not >.<
For a limited time!
Yes Richard, I agree with you, this man is full of deception. The ‘False Prophet’ of the End Times for sure. The ‘SIGN OF THE TIMES’ is accelerating very, very quickly now.
Our sins are forgiven by Jesus Christ the son of God.
Another f— liar , how many are there in power?
Stupid
A Lib Pope….I’m done….
I am Catholic by baptism and thought that no matter what time of year, abortion was a mortal and unforgiveable sin. But who am I to judge. I will stick by anyone who asks God to forgive them because we are all sinners including the Pope. Sin is sin is sin is sin—-evil. I’m confused by all these man made laws. God will surely let us know what is right.
