It will be the height of embarrassment for the Holy Father to be welcomed to Ireland by a gay Taoiseach,and indeed to an Ireland that has sanctioned gay marriage.

Given ironically he's coming to celebrate the traditional family unit,it might be better if the Taoiseach steps aside and allow someone else to welcome him.

Because Fearon is on his team.

He is coming to celebrate the Year of the Family.It would be appropriate therefore if he was met by someone who supports the traditional family unit,and only the traditional family unit as endorsed throughout scripture

You know Mother of God, Mary was 14?... that is actually true according to your scripture...

A bit ironic that the Pope has no family and neither can Bishops or Priests.
Maybe he will have a lot of Empathy for Leo and the rest of the gay folks.

And Mary wasn't married either.

Not sure how God thought he was reinforcing the traditional family unit but bringing Jesus into the world to an unmarried couple.

Jesus was born to parents of opposite sex.Engagement under Jewish Law at the time was tantamount to marriage.This clearly represent's God's intentions regarding marriage and family,parents of male and female gender.
