Yes, but this story will have a much different “spin” than the first one.

Got it…
You are posting it because you prefer the “spin” America mag puts on the story.

An alternative source, Catholic World Report was already posted on the original thread, for the story without the spin.

Whatever one makes of the prudence of this action by the Pope, the intent was to promote Christian unity.

Yet some (on both sides) use it as a wedge to create disunity.

Personally, I will be praying with Jesus…
“so that they may be one, as we are one”
