So profound Pope Francis. The brain hurts.
If a woman is required to bring a little humanity to something, that would imply that men are not human. Fish and bicycles.
Of course, if women know how to find the right way and move forward (which presumably means men don’t), then his entire argument is self-defeating as he as a man is the one doing these things, which implies it is not the right way and not a way to move forward.
“Humanity” in its post-lapsarian state is not an unqualified good by any stretch of the imagination, as the sheer body count of the past century should make more than clear. I think this is one of the greatest missteps of the post conciliar era, in that the concept of original sin has been all but abandoned and replaced by a naive and overly optimistic conception of human dignity. Combine that with the incessant calls for dialogue and you get people who want children torn limb from limb as members of the PAL and popes arguing that it is a good thing.
I thought I read somewhere that this “person” is not only a pro-abort but also a man who thinks he’s female and dresses as one. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong
🤔 so she is not only pro-abort but atheist.
“ She has also made no secret of her sympathies for a right to abortion. In June, after the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Mazzucato tweeted “so good!” in response to a rant by liberal commentator Ana Kasparian, who derided Christians for “dictating” how she should live her life when it comes to abortion and contraception.
In 2016, Mazzucato tweeted, “As an atheist, never thought I would love a Pope this much. What a star!” in reference to two comments the Pope had made — when he suggested Donald Trump was not a Christian in 2016, and his speech a year earlier at the U.N. when he criticized the global banking system, warned about climate change and defended a “right to environment.”

Her mother’s obituary from 2011 (linked in her Wikipedia article) states that she is married to Carlo Cresto-Dina (an Italian film producer) and they have four children:

” I think this is one of the greatest missteps of the post conciliar era, in that the concept of original sin has been all but abandoned and replaced by a naive and overly optimistic conception of human dignity.”
Germaine Grisez, the theologian put forth “human dignity” as a reason to deny capital punishment to murderers of little children and all murderers. Some excellent persons adopted his reasoning.
The murderer, as a citizen of the state brings himself to Justice and is executed through his own power of attorney.
“human dignity” as an excuse to disenfranchise the murderer of his citizenship is unnatural. Grisez’s theology on natural law to abort Justice does not take into account man’s transcendent nature; that is, man’s soul, immmortal and his citizenship in heaven.
Natural law without acknowlegement of “their Creator” is simply idolatry.
The unborn innocent children are the standard of Justice for all nations. To abort Justice and our Constitutional “Posterity”, all future generations, is without human dignity.
Well, Pope Francis, Fix it.
ADDENDUM:
When a citizen is convicted of homicide in the first degree he loses, forfeits, his citizenship and becomes persona non grata. He loses his place in the community. It is the persona non grata who is executed at capital punishment through his own power of attorney.
The gift of sovereign personhood is endowed by “their Creator” The creation of his immortal, innocent soul, created in original innocence is violated by his evil act of homicide in the first degree.
It should be renamed the Pontifical Academy of Secular Stuff, PASS for short
Pope Francis is insulting to women, to mothers in particular. Pro aborts and atheists do not belong on PAL It`s a travesty.
Being pro-life means life from conception ’til death. Since atheists do not believe in God therefore nor the soul, they do not believe in the hereafter. I’d rather see PAL disestablished rather than have pro-abort and pro choice and atheist members on PAL.
Ah. More and more revealed as she was giving input during Covid.
I’ll ask again, did the Vatican buy Pfizer stock, if so, how much and when?
“Some have defended the appointment by saying that it makes sense for the Vatican to seek input from all kinds of views. But Mazzucato has been giving input to the Vatican, in an official role, for over two years. In April 2020, she tweeted that she was thrilled to be working with the Vatican’s Covid-19 Task Force, preparing weekly briefings which, she claimed, the pope went on to use in his speeches. No need, then, for her to be made a member in the Academy for Life in order to give input.
But what did she think of the Covid lockdowns? “Let’s not let this crisis go to waste,” she urged. Covid was an occasion for the government to seize control over the economy, she said, so that henceforth businesses would be compelled to advance a green agenda. “As companies…come asking for bailouts [c]onditions can be attached.” This radical reset of the economy “must be done now, while government has the upper hand.” She attacked Donald Trump in particular, of course: “This is no time for nationalistic thinking.”
Replying to MRSOPEY –
It should be renamed the Pontifical Institute of Secular Stuff, PISS for short.
Makes one wonder if this and the secret China-Vatican agreement is part of the Synod’s “big tent” with a merger of the Vatican with Planned Parenthood, and a merger of the Vatican with the CCP. That would be very inclusive. King Solomon was very “big tent” when he gave into his foreign wives.
