That's a quote from a letter of Pope Francis. He went on to say that God will "forgive" atheists and agnostics as long as they
behave morally and live according to their consciences.
Another surprise: this from the new Vatican secretary of state, who said that the rule that priests should
be celibate was not "a dogma of the Church" and could be open for
discussion. He went on to assert that the principle of celibacy among
clergy was "ecclesiastical tradition" rather than "Church
dogma" and therefore open to discussion.
Is the Catholic Church joining the 21 century?
