1 Vatican says trans people can be baptized, serve as godparents

"Freemasonry has been prohibited for Catholics since 1738, when Pope Clement XII called the secret society 'depraved and perverted'"

7 In a day and age when the Vatican encourages, nearly requires, that its faithful be understanding of all kinds of moral depravity, why would it suddenly re-assert a 200 year old ban against Masonry? Inquiring minds want to know.

11 Now do LBTGROQMR+ and abortion.

The grave sin of telling the papacy to piss off.
