Pope Francis and James Martin unite with the statement that gay is okay.

Here is James Martin and Francis, their buddies.

And my question for everybody watching is, do they hold the same view when it comes to

astronomy? Are they of the same mind? They're both Jesuits and they both, you know, believe

it or not, I think Francis more than any pope in 2000 years has talked about homosexuality

more than most. So today I'm going to read to you the clarification. As you know, I did

a video earlier when Francis did an interview and he talked about how astronomy should

no longer be criminalized anywhere in the world that it was not a crime. But he did say

it's a sin. Now James Martin was not excited about that and he wrote a letter to Pope Francis

saying, could you clarify that? And Francis responded, ASAP within days and clarified his

position on homosexuality, which I'm going to read you today. The translation that I'm going

to use is from Outreach, an LGBTQ Catholic resource. Here's the article recently written by James

Martin, SJ, you can see he's the author. And the title of it is, hike it or not. Pete, booty jig

is legally married. Yeah, this is James Martin's article. Maybe we'll talk about that. I don't

really want to. But here is the response handwritten by Pope Francis. Imagine having a theological

question and writing Francis and getting a handwritten note right back. Look at his split.

Here's the typed version. I don't know who made this. And then I'm going to read for you

the official English edition provided by Outreach, an LGBTQ Catholic resource. And this is James

Martin's preferred Outreach. Well, it's crazy about it is he's got the L for the lesbians, the G

for the Gays, the B's for the B's, the T's for the Trans and the Q's for the Queers. So James Martin

is all on board with every element OP element. So here is the letter translated in English by Outreach

from Pope Francis to James Martin. Dear brother, thank you for your letter.
