Father Maurizio Chiodi and Father Pier Davide Guenzi currently teach moral theology at the University of Northern Italy in Milan, and both are well known for their questioning of moral absolutes.
VATICAN CITY The latest development in what is becoming increasingly viewed as both a purge and a revolution of the Pontifical John Paul II Institute is the hiring of two moral theologians whose views on homosexuality and contraception contradict the magisterium.
The new professors, Father Maurizio Chiodi and Father Pier Davide Guenzi, both moral theologians at the University of Northern Italy in Milan, will begin teaching at the Pontifical John Paul II Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Sciences as part of its 2019-2020 curriculum announced this week.
Father Chiodi, whom Archbishop Paglia appointed as a member of the Pontifical Academy for Life in 2017, is to teach Theological Ethics of Life at the institute.
Father Guenzi is to lecture on the Anthropology and Ethics of Birth. Both professors, whose appointments follow highly contentious removals of long-serving lecturers in July, are well known for their questioning of moral absolutes.
In 2017, Father Chiodi gave a controversial Rome lecture on Humanae Vitae in which he used Chapter 8 of Pope Francis apostolic exhortation on the family, Amoris Laetitia, to justify contraceptive use in some cases.
More recently, he gave an interview to the Italian bishops newspaper Avvenire in which he asserted that, while each homosexual person is called to chastity, under certain conditions and depending on circumstances, homosexual relationships can be the most fruitful way for same-sex attracted persons to enjoy good relations.

I wonder if the good Father can tell us under exactly what conditions such relationships could possibly be fruitful according to RCC doctrine.
Id love to hear that.

There is no such biological reality as homosexuality; it is merely homoeroticism.
At the very least they should have the decency to take JP II’s name off the door.
