[Former Jesuit Superior] Kolvenbach of the Opinion that Jorge Bergoglio, Francis, Is a Sociopath..
La Salette Journey ^ | 11/29/16

Posted on 11/30/2016 6:28:38 PM PST by marshmallow

Gloria TV reports:

"Last Saturday, Father Peter Hans Kolvenbach died in Beirut, Lebanon. He was the Superior General of the Jesuits from 1983 to 2008. Kolvenbach allegedly wrote to the Vatican recommending that Jorge Mario Bergoglio not be made archbishop of Buenos Aires because he was emotionally unstable and temperamentally unreliable. John Paul II promoted him anyway, believing that liberal Jesuits were unduly prejudiced against Bergoglio because he had been unsympathetic to Liberation Theology.

Bad Relationship: As the Argentinean provincial of the Jesuits, Bergoglio did not form as warm a relationship with the superior general, Peter Hans Kolvenbach, as he had with his predecessor, Pedro Arrupe. Kolvenbach even intervened to unseat Bergoglio and spurned him on his trip to Argentina in 1988. Bergoglio was exiled to Cordoba and his followers sent abroad."

I addressed the Kolvenbach report here.

Nah! He’s just a globalist commie. If he were American, he’d fit in well in the democratic party.

So I guess that Pope John Paul II is the man to blame for Pope Francis’ elevation.

John Paul II promoted him anyway, believing that liberal Jesuits were unduly prejudiced against Bergoglio because he had been unsympathetic to Liberation Theology.

I was worried when Francis was being considered for Pope, but everyone said back then that he got in trouble with some of the bishops in South America for being strongly against Liberation Theology. I've been wonder about that ever since he revealed himself as Pope. Is he so unstable that he switched from right to left? Or was he faking it? He certainly seems to be far, far to the left now. JPII never would have backed him if he had behaved like this back then. Was this all part of a plot?

Re: 9

The other option is that the other South American bishops were even more Marxist, and atheistic, than Francis.
The thought that they considered Francis to be too conservative is pretty scary. Maybe you are correct, and Francis was just a faux conservative - biding time to get a promotion.

Would certainly be in keeping with the history of the Order.

...Kolvenbach...was the Superior General of the Jesuits from 1983 to 2008. Kolvenbach allegedly wrote to the Vatican recommending that Jorge Mario Bergoglio not be made archbishop of Buenos Aires because he was emotionally unstable and temperamentally unreliable.

If Francis was such a mess, why didn't Kolvenbach dismiss him from the Jesuits?

Sorry. This gives him an excuse. Heretic is as heretic does. It also lends credence that the Crisis is “only a Francis problem”.
