🤔 it is interesting how some are freaking out. I blocked Vatican News after what’s his face said he didn’t think continuing to use Rupnik’s art w credible allegations was a negative.
Maybe I can stomach it soon
it’s interesting how this appointment is traveling under the radar…..

“The Vatican itself openly described Alvarado’s appointment as a continuation of Francis’s reforms and his effort to place more laypeople, including women, in positions of governance.”
