Hot Tea: Pope Francis Oks Catholic Priests Forgiveness of Abortion

As part of moves to make The Church more open and inclusive, Pope Francis has granted all Catholic Priests the right to forgive women who have had abortion(s). He will give the priests the discretion during the Roman Catholic Church's upcoming Holy Year.

His decision was revealed in a letter published by the Vatican. There, Pope Francis described the 'existential and moral ideal' faced by women who have terminated pregnancies.

He said priests should use words of genuine welcome but ensure those involved were aware of the gravity of the sin committed.

In the Catholic Church, abortion is a grave sin that those who perform it incur an automatic excommunication. It can only be forgiven by the chief confessor i.e Archbishop of the diocese.

Random Musings: Clearly I Am Not Just A Fat Ass

Lately I find myself listening to different genres of music. From rock, pop, country, jazz and and and. So I have just being a music whore trying to find the one I'm most comfortable with. Of all the genres of music I have been experimenting lately, Soul tops my list. Now Soul is believed to be music for only mature minds, whatever that means! I have even been told that you need to be of a certain age group to understand the message that lies in soul music. Honestly, I couldn't disagree more.

So What If I've Had 20 Exes?

This might be another very controversial article that I get to post on my blog weekly. This is because every now and then I get to meet very interesting people and I am constantly reminded that we view life differently. Before I continue, I'll advise only 25s and above to read this. I believe this age range can relate with this topic appropriately. However, I'm open to contrary views.
