Our paper reported to-day that the more conservative  among Roman Catholics are against Pope Francis's rather liberal attitude towards  divorce and remarriage. He favors Mercy over punishment which denies communion to divorced couples civilly remarried who have sex before their first marriage is annulled or declared invalid by the church. It is unrealistic for Catholics to abide by those unreasonable rules , knowing human nature and love. I love Pope Francis for his compassionate attitude. He has received,  unfortunately, death threats from Fundamentalist Catholics for being so Liberal.
