Pope Peremptory.

The dismissal of Catholic professors from the John Paul II Institute in Rome was a “conviction without a trial,” its former president, Monsignore Livio Melina, told La Verit?? (August 3).

Melina and three of his colleagues were dismissed by Archbishop Paglia, the Institute’s Grand Chancellor, ???for not following a particular interpretation??? of Francis??? Amoris Laetitia.

Melina spells out what this decision means: ???It is intolerable in the Church to interpret the magisterium of Pope Francis in continuity with the previous Magisterium.???

This Amoris Laetitia is the statement where Francis upended marital morality and of which he is verrrrry protective.

Age of Aquarius. Sickening.

???[Francis] warns us that it is risky to look at human life in a way that detaches it from experience and reduces it to biology or to an abstract universal, separated from relationships and history,??? Paglia said.

???Rather, the term ???life??? must be redefined, moving from an abstract conception to a ???personal??? dimension: life is people, men and women, both in the individuality of each person and in the unity of the human family.???

Ah. New terms are what we need. Francis’ man at helm of?? “life” academy. Chip, chip, chip away at the old ways. Lead on, Francis.
