Although I disagree with the notion that state recognition of unions (whatever you want to call them) should be termed differently based on whether it's a heterosexual or homosexual union, it's hard to really ask for more from the Pope.
Of course I'd also welcome church recognition of same-sex unions, but it's more important to not stand in the way of equality before the law, as a first step.
Francis continues to impress at any rate.
Why would an atheist become Catholic again? Having a more tolerable Pope won't cause someone to start believing in God.
Yeah, I was about to say this.
