"More welcoming" only to the divorced and remarried, an infinitesimally small number of Catholics who disobeyed the magisterium in remarrying but are obedient about receiving communion.  This pope is as misogynist and homophobic as the cardinals who elected him and the men he has appointed since. Pope Francis excommunicated Fr. Greg Reynolds for supporting same-sex marriage and women's ordination, fired Fr. Krzysztof Charamsa  from his Vatican post after coming out and refused to accept the appointment of Laurent Stefanini as French ambassador to the Vatican because he was openly gay. Like the pope, Cupich fired two employees, Sandor Demkovich and Colin Collette, for marrying their partners. Cupich defrocked Fr. Marco Mercado because of his “inappropriate relationship with an adult man.” Reform the curia? His first action was to make Cardinal Rodriguez Maradiaga, who supported the military coup against the progressive Zelaya in 2009, as head of his "C9."
