Pavone, one of the most well-known pro-life priests around the world, was laicized by personal order of Pope Francis in 2022, in a move widely believed to be punishment for Pavone’s stance on abortion which was so opposite that of Francis, who welcomed abortionists and population controllers into the Vatican.

The previous Nuncio to the United States, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, denounced Fr. Pavone’s laicization as “unjust and illegitimate punishment” and an attempt “to feed a climate of terror among the clergy so as to constrain them into servile and fearful obedience.”

Pope impersonator Bobby Prevost is an a-hole.

I understand that there is a difference. There is the Church, and then there are the disgusting leaders of the Church.

But perhaps it doesn’t matter. After all, the average parishioner can do little to influence the of direction the Vatican.

I did not know this about Father Pavone. I find outrageous.

This Christophe Pierre is a sanctimonious jackass. A really nasty piece of work. French of course.

It is outrageous that Father Frank Pavone has been treated this way.
