Vatican:Church Won't Bless Same-Sex Unions; Church Can Welcome Gay People, Not Unions

The Vatican declared today (March 15, 2021) that the Catholic Church won't bless same-sex unions since God "cannot bless sin," according to the Yahoo News website.


The Vatican's orthodoxy office, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, issued a formal response to a question about whether Catholic clergy have the authority to bless gay unions.The answer, approved by Pope Francis, was "negative."


The note distinguished between the church's welcoming and blessing of gay people, which it upheld, but not their unions.
