Vatican City, Jun 27, 2016 / 01:20 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- Pope Francis told journalists on Sunday that he was somewhat angered when reports emerged that the Church was allegedly paving the way for the ordination of women to the diaconate, since no such change is in the works.

“The first to be surprised by this news was me,” the Pope said June 26 during an in-flight press briefing en route to Rome following his three-day visit to Armenia.

“They said: ‘The Church opens the door to deaconesses.’ Really? I am a bit angry because this is not telling the truth of things.”

I hope at some point he will recognize them for the enemies of the Church that they are. Jesus warned that the world would hate us.

Yes. This follow up statement did not get anywhere near the attention his previous comment on this subject did. Hopefully he is getting some feedback on how the media loves to sensationalize his comments when it suits their needs.

The media has similarly twisted his comments that we need to apologize to homosexuals .
