During his visit to the U.S., Pope Francis allegedly met with the anti-gay Rowan County clerk of Kentucky, Kim Davis, and according to her, he told her to "stay strong." The Pope also stated that "conscientious objection" is a human right, implying that the likes of Kim Davis should be able to deny civil rights to gay people. In short, the Pope wants us to tolerate intolerance, but it doesn't work that way. 

P.S. Many will point out that Pope Francis met with his gay friend during his visit, but just know that this doesn't change the reality of his homophobia. This is the Pope equivalent of the "I'm not homophobic, I have gay friends" argument.
