In one of the most iconic moments coming out of World Youth Day, Pope Francis called on the hundreds of thousands gathered before him to yell back at him that the Catholic Church is for “todos, todos, todos” – everyone, everyone, everyone.

      It’s easy and cheap for him to just claim “it’s for everyone” without actually doing anything to address the bigotry, systemic issues, and culture surrounding the religion. I get the impression this is by intent.

        “the pope was asked how he could reconcile his “todos” message with the fact that LGBTQ+ people are excluded from the sacraments. The pope answered the Church has laws, but is still a place for everyone.”

        Equal but different.
