Cardinal Carlos Aguiar Retes said that if LGBT people 'decide as a matter of free choice to be with another person, to be in a union, that's freedom.'
December 11, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — A Francis-appointed cardinal in Mexico says he agrees with the Pope’s recent coming out in support of homosexual civil unions, despite such support contradicting the Bible along with Catholic perennial teaching.
Cardinal Carlos Aguiar Retes, Archbishop of Mexico City, told Reuters that he “completely” agrees with the Pope’s support for homosexual civil unions.
Pope Francis made his comments about civil unions in the film “Francesco,” which was created by homosexual film director Evgeny Afineevsky. The film premiered on Oct. 21, 2020 on the occasion of the Rome Film Festival. While the Pope’s comments were first aired in the new documentary, they were originally part of a May 2019 interview with Mexican broadcaster Televisa. However, these particular comments were not aired at that time.
