Pope Leo XIV confirmed his intent to include LGBTQ parishioners within the Catholic Church ahead of their planned Holy Year pilgrimage to Vatican City.
A lot of people don’t understand that Catholicism is secretly 10 different denominations in a trench coat. It’s overdue for another schism; the more progressive end keeps pushing for changes to bring back lapsed/excluded members while the reactionary right keeps ramping up resistance.

No new Schism needed if the outcomes of the previous one is still good :-)
Catching up with the member base and following a more open Christian vision instead of bigotry? Sounds good.
Member base in which country? There are plenty of bigoted Catholics around the world.
This is a good thing though, slow progress is still progress.

Call me cynical, but I believe it’s just a ploy to get/keep their #s, and thus their donations and power up.
Like the last pope, people will just claim he’s not a real pope.
Some people will, some people willn’t.
Support the willn’t.
Sedevacantism is a group like that
This video starting at 19:22 discusses them. The title of the video kinda gives away a bit about them.
That’s a valid point, I sadly might be prejudiced here by my upbringing.
Hahaha, that open-minded Catholic base, eh?
