Francis' newly appointed preacher to the Pontifical Household, Capuchin Father Roberto Pasolini, is a homosexual activist, reports InformazioneCattolica.it (12 November).
A former Communist, Father Pasolini holds a doctorate from the Jesuit Pontifical Gregorian University and is a professor of biblical exegesis at the Theological Faculty of Northern Italy in his native Milan.
On 2 February 2024, Father Pasolini spoke in Varese on "Homosexuality and the Christian life" (video below). He condemned St Paul's condemnation of homosexual acts because they are defined "without too much discernment as acts that tend to be negative".
St Paul was thinking "of orgies" but "not of groups of homosexual Christians in search". Fr Pasolini asks if there is "any form of approval of homosexual relations in Scripture" and his answer is "not simply no".
He projects homosexuality into the friendship between David and Jonathan and between the centurion of Capernaum and his sick servant.
Father Pasolini justifies these homosexual fantasies by saying that "nothing forbids us to think it and to imagine it".
For him, "it is legitimate" to imagine homosexuality for the centurion: "If that were so, who would Jesus have praised the most?"
According to those who know him well, Pasolini is full of himself, a careerist, snobbish, know-it-all and arrogant.
Is he TRYING to RUIN the CHURCH???
Bishop Strickland: God will punish bishops for their silence while Pope Francis destroys the Church
HERESY
Remember what Bergoglio said to Ted McCarrick... “The bad ones, they never die.”
This pope, he can really pick ‘em. Of all the perfectly fine, nice, religious people he had in the pool, he picks a confirmed commie who advocates for gays and probably is one. Is this not enough proof that Francis is not performing as a pope, but as a progressive commie?
Catholics...
Do you think that might merit its own Caucus thread?
Seems Francis is trying to take Christ out of the Catholic Church and turn the Church into a club. Vigano for Pope!
Works for him as well as McCarrick.
The only thing surprising about this anymore would be if he really were a FORMER communist.
