Original Note:
A blessing of a same-sex couple is not the same as a marriage sacrament, a ceremonial rite. The new rule stressed that it was not blessing the relationship, but rather the people themselves. Church doctrine remains that marriage is only between a man and a woman. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/18/world/europe/pope-gay-lesbian-same-sex-blessing.html https://www.cathdal.org/The_Catholic_Church_and_Marriage https://press.vatican.va/content/salastampa/it/bollettino/pubblico/2023/12/18/0901/01963.html
