VATICAN CITY — So far it has emerged that two academics recently appointed full members of the Pontifical Academy for Life have expressed their public support for legalized abortion, another has advocated universal abortion access and use of artificial contraception among the poor, and a fourth new member, a Jesuit moral theology professor, has made it clear he supports artificial contraception in some cases.
Pope Francis also appointed to the academy’s governing council a French theologian and head of the Pontifical John Paul II Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Sciences, who has appeared to similarly promote contraception and approved of liturgical blessings for same-sex couples under certain conditions.
The Pope’s appointments, announced Oct. 15, have caused consternation among moral theologians, lawyers and Catholic doctors who have firmly reproved the choices as antithetical to the academy’s primary purpose. Pope St. John Paul II set up the institution in 1994 in “defense and promotion of the value of human life and of the dignity of the person.”
Critics have also argued that choosing such members runs contrary to the academy’s own statutes, revised in 2016, which mandate that each ordinary member (the highest rank of academy member) be chosen for, among other attributes, their “faithful service in the defense and promotion of the right to life of every human person.”

Short answer:
Because Bergoglio is at odds with those teachings, and many more, of the Catholic Church.
Ping
That’s because the homosexuals have been consolidating power at the Vatican and are busy rewriting everything to fit their world.
One word: Homo mafia.
Too bad there wasn’t some kind of a book with teachings in it that could lead people to morality and beliefs that transcend what mortal men believe they think they see....but.... you know....who really cares.
Because they are leftist academics following the doctrine of the leftist academic faith.
That’s why I want to read Heaven’s history book on man. Nothing erased and everything kept.
Because they let faggots infest their organization just like the Boy Scouts etc. did.
Because Frank is an aspiring Anti Christ.
A.) St Robert Bellarmine, De Romano Pontifice, lib. IV, c. 9, no. 15: “Then two years later came the lapse of Liberius, of which we have spoken above. Then indeed the Roman clergy, stripping Liberius of his pontifical dignity, went over to Felix, whom they knew [then] to be a Catholic. From that time, Felix began to be the true Pontiff. For although Liberius was not a heretic, nevertheless he was considered one, on account of the peace he made with the Arians, and by that presumption the pontificate could rightly be taken from him: for men are not bound, or able to read hearts; but when they see that someone is a heretic by his external works, they judge him to be a heretic pure and simple, and condemn him as a heretic.”
B.) Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum (# 13), June 29, 1896: “You are not to be looked upon as holding the true Catholic faith if you do not teach that the faith of Rome is to be held.”
C.) Pope Pius XII, Mystici Corporis Christi (# 23), June 29, 1943: “For not every offense, although it may be a grave evil, is such as by its very own nature [suapte natura] to sever a man from the Body of the Church [ab Ecclesiae Corpore], as does schism or heresy or apostasy.”
D.) Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum (#15), June 29, 1896: “… it is absurd to imagine that he who is outside the Church can command in the Church.”
E.) Canon 2314 #1, 1917 Code of Canon Law, “All apostates from the Christian faith and each and every heretic or schismatic: 1. Incur by that fact excommunication.”
Excellent quotes.
No problem. I hope people pass them on.
Because Pope Frankie is at odds with church teachings and like having his own heretics surrounding him and the church....
You guys just constantly complain about your church. Why do you stay in the organization? There seems to be tens of thousands of you with publications dedicated to being anti status quo. Why don’t you just quit and start the real version that you all sound like you want? They’re obviously not going to change.
So claim that for yourself and call them apostates. Seems to me that being right would make you the genuine article. I really do feel for you guys. It just seems like you’re all making yourselves miserable.
You obviously haven’t been reading my comments.
We're not. Are you a patriotic American? Your leadership despises traditional morality, science, liberty, a Republican form of government, and the very Constitution itself. Why don't you just leave?
Because, I don’t consider being an American as something I need permission from a national leadership to be. I don’t define myself as an American in terms of a hierarchy that I have to obey. There is no national liturgy to follow. At least not for me.
