I agree, that headline is sensational. What the pope actually said was little more than a restatement of Matthew 7. I'd argue, however, that the potential impact of a sensational headline like this – i.e. the foreseeable consequences of publishing it – pales in comparison to a Breitbart News headline like [1].

What he actually said (or rather quoted to have said) aligned with my take on the title's meaning.
