More erotic filth by Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández, Prefect for the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF) — formerly the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith — has been reported by the Argentine Catholic website El Wanderer, which described the newly unearthed material as “not only pornographic but also detestable.”
The “disgusting” erotic texts are in line with the DDF head’s previously known “theology” books, Heal Me with Your Mouth: The Art of Kissing and Mystical Passion: Spirituality and Sensuality, which use pornographic imagery.
“What would possess a Catholic priest to write about the particulars of sexual orgasm, fornication, and everything in between?” asked Catholic commentator Liz Yore in a LifeSiteNews podcast when those works first came to light. “The book is salacious, it’s titillating, it’s without any spiritual, moral, or redeeming value. It is, frankly, hardcore porn wrapped up in a thin tissue of mysticism loaded with lewd eroticism.”
Yore suggested that Fernández’s known works might be just the “tip of the iceberg.”
Turns out, she was right.
In one of the newly discovered books, Why Can’t I Finish Healing?, published in 2002, Fernández lasciviously wrote:
A body can be striking when dressed appropriately—clothes that awaken sensuality by accentuating interesting curves, according to the body’s shape. The sensuality of tanned shoulders and arms is emphasized with a t-shirt. Elegance is highlighted, concealing any extra weight with a black vest and white sleeves. A bare neck becomes more alluring with a delicate necklace; and so on. If, in a moment of dissatisfaction, when someone needs to find something to look forward to or enjoy, a body can appear impressive, wonderful, indispensable, then a body can appear as something breathtaking, marvelous, indispensable.
He then laments:
But then, with routine, and by discovering other, different bodies, one realizes that that mass of flesh was nothing extraordinary, that it has imperfections, shortcomings, and pains like all bodies, that it deteriorates and loses its allure with the passage of time.
In a second book, titled Spiritual Theology: Spiritual Depth in Action (2005), wrote:
It consists of scanning the entire body, paying full attention to one organ at a time. It is very important to note that this is not about “thinking” about that organ, imagining it, or visualizing it. It is more precisely about “feeling” it, perceiving it with your senses. It is about calmly experiencing the sensations of each organ, without judging whether those sensations are good or bad, but rather trying to allow that organ to relax and release tension. It is best to do this more or less in this order: jaw, cheekbones, throat, nose, eyes, forehead (and all the small facial muscles that you can feel), scalp, neck and nape, shoulders. Continue with the right arm, wrist, and right hand; the left arm, wrist, and left hand. Then scan the back. Continue: chest, stomach, waist, hips, pelvis, buttocks, genitals, right leg, left leg, right foot, left foot. The key is to linger slowly on one place at a time, without letting your imagination wander to another organ or another idea, until we feel that the entire body has the same tone. There is no rush.
In a third text discussed by El Wanderer, To Free Yourself from Anxiety and Impatience (2009), he once again used the imagery of orgasm to describe moments where life is “lived to the fullest”:
When we can pause, and an object or person captures our full attention for a moment, that moment is lived to the fullest. When our entire being is unified in a single direction, then we achieve a true encounter, a fusion, a perfect union, even if only for a few minutes. This doesn’t necessarily mean physical stillness, because this experience can also occur amidst the excitement of intense activity. This happens, for example, during an orgasm between two people who love each other.
“A person—a priest, bishop, and cardinal, to boot—capable of thinking, writing, and publishing such downright pornographic paragraphs has a serious problem,” wrote the El Wanderer commentator. “And it is precisely this problem, among other reasons, that explains why he was the author of Fiducia Supplicans,” which permits the “non-liturgical” blessing of irregular and same-sex “couples.”
“That cursed document has given rise not only to enormous confusion within the Church, but also to immeasurable scandal and pain among the faithful,” declared the El Wanderer author.
“Cardinal Fernández’s problem also explains the contempt with which he gratuitously treated the Blessed Virgin Mary, denying her two titles used by saints and popes,” continued the analysis piece. “Why this horror of virginity and purity, virtues eminently embodied in the Mother of God?”

Like a two-year-old?
Face reality. Homosexual agnostics now dominate the hierarchy. They are now embedded. Pope Benedict did not have the strength to do what was necessary. Soon only a faithful remnant will remain.

He is describing a man here.
SLightly ot. Harrods in London has no outside Christmas decor this year or garland on the stairs. Looks like the muslims have reached their goal across the pond.
An unbeliever masquerading as one of the truly saved.
Which happens wayyyy more then should.
Fixations such as these based on Sex are ways of the flesh.
You cannot write about these things and be of the spirit.
My gaydar is off the charts.
Child molestation by the Catholic Church, one of the biggest scandals of my lifetime and not alot of sincere recognition of their sins by the church.
The laity strikes back. Time to dig up the dirt on Martin.

You gotta be kidding me Ebb, this is where the Catholic Church is today? Back in the day this lady I think would have put a stop to it.
The name you’re likely looking for is Fabiola, a feminine name of Roman origin meaning “bean” or “bean grower,” famous in Christian history through Saint Fabiola, a wealthy Roman noblewoman who became a physician and philanthropist, founding a hospital for the poor and destitute in the 4th century and working with Saint Jerome. She’s a significant figure, sometimes referred to as the first “nun” or Christian woman physician, known for her extreme asceticism and charity.
Do not despair. The Church has gone through periods of a depraved Vatican before. Delve into the Renaissance with its Borgia and Medici popes, eg, if you want to read some salacious and scandalous history. Illicit papal children, mistresses, cardinals red hats for sale, political intrigue, torture during the inquisition, assassinations, a price on the head of Luther, Savonarola burned at the stake for pissing off the pope, you name it. But still the Church recovered and flourished.
“not a lot of sincere recognition of their sins by the church.”
Disagree. Not a lot of sincere recognition by the Protestant churches that it’s in their churches at the same percentage. It’s worse in public education and general society. But people have a right to expect more from the Church.
Pray that Leo doesn’t give him a new term in 28. Pray that he quietly shuffles him off even before that. The document marginalizing Mary, the document giving blessings to men in openly homosexual relationships, what a mess!
Of all of Bergoglio’s stunts during his nightmare of a papacy, his two most malicious were Traditionis Custodes and the Tucho appointment. With the latter, Bergoglio was basically trolling the Catholic Church. Putting a perverted clown in charge of the Holy Office was the most epic Roman troll since, well, Caligula appointed his horse as a senator.
Buhbye, Tucho!
I’d rather have Caligula’s horse ... or anybody’s horse ... running the DDF than have Tucho the Perv polluting that office.
