Now to a significant policy shift from the Catholic Church.
Priests will be allowed to bless same-sex couples, though only under certain conditions.
The Vatican released Monday a document approved by Pope Francis.
It opens the possibility of blessing same-sex couples but not in regular church rituals or civil union ceremonies.
The document says, “One should not prevent or prohibit the Church's closeness to people in every situation in which they might seek God's help through a simple blessing.”
The Vatican previously said same-sex couples cannot be blessed, saying marriage is only allowed between men and women.
It says the doctrine regarding marriage will not change, and it maintains its opposition to same-sex marriage.
