The last time the pope had outlined this objective had been at the press conference on the flight back from Panama on January 27 2019, when to the question: “Will you allow married men to become priests?” he first responded by repeating with Paul VI: “I would rather lay down my life than change the law of celibacy,” but immediately afterward admitted a possibility of that kind “in remoter areas” like in the “Pacific islands” and “perhaps” in the Amazon and “in many places.”(bold emphasis ET's)

Which is one of the most disaster-ridden Churches in the world, with all the needles in the red except for that of monetary wealth. And yet promoted by Bergoglio as the beacon of his pontificate.

That's the money quote, literally. This papacy is run like a typical Latin American dictatorship with all the attendant corruption and bribery. The Krauts, despite presiding over a declining, unpopular local church, are nonetheless calling the shots because they're able and willing to pay off all the right people.

Married Priests would or will become two men or include transgenders. Make an opening to the World and the world floods in.
