VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — Pro-abortion American actress and activist Whoopi Goldberg met with Pope Francis Thursday, the former taking the time to thank the latter for his "message" surrounding so-called climate change, and his stance on homosexual acts and Communion for the divorced and "remarried."

In an interview published Thursday by Vatican News, Goldberg talked about her meeting with Francis earlier today, saying she has "waited for years" to "thank Pope Francis for his message," particularly on the topic of homosexuality. Goldberg told Vatican News that she understood Francis' message to be: "Gay people, you may not agree, we all know God doesn't make mistakes so something has to be there."
