"For there's nothing as powerful or as great As when a husband & wife, united by oneness of mind in their thinking, Keep their home together—a great bane to their enemies, A blessing to their friends, & their renown is on everyone's lips.” Odysseus' great praise of marriage.

*Very* unusual for a pope to do this. Magisterial in tone and form (numbered paragraphs, quoting papal teachings) and targeted (referring to Trump policies and Vance’s justifications), this letter is meant to leave no doubt about where the Church stands. vatican.va/content/francesco…
