Victor Manuel "Tucho" Fernández, as Archbishop of La Plata (2018–2023): Transubstantiation with microphone
(Rome) The John Paul II Academy for Life and the Family asks Pope Francis to remove Argentine Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández from his position as Prefect of the Roman Dicastery for the Faith.
In a statement, Thomas Ward, president of the academy, expressed his “astonishment” that Cardinal Fernandez accepted the office of Prefect of the Faith “despite the fact that over the past decades he has written scandalous books of an erotic nature that border on pornography and contain passages , which contradict the traditional teaching of the Church, especially his works 'Heal me with your mouth. The Art of Kissing' and 'Mystical Passion. Spirituality and sensuality'.”
Instead of retracting the “shameful passages, Cardinal Fernández simply stated that he would no longer publish them today and that he prohibited their reprinting,” Ward said.
The John Paul II Academy for Life and the Family denounces that “the sensual-mystical literature, to which the cardinal has a particular inclination, is one of the worst evils of our time because, under the pretext of spirituality, it is in reality nothing does other than justify the worst excesses of the current sexual revolution, which is deeply corrupting our society and leading our young people into the abyss.”
The John Paul II Academy recalls that under Pope Pius XI. The Holy Office, as the Dicastery of Faith was then called, published the instruction De sensuali et de sensuali-mystico litterarum genere, which expressly condemned mystical-sensual literature, especially the works of those authors who did not shy away from the playground of a sick sensuality "to embellish with holy things, mixing tactless loves with a certain piety towards God and a religious mysticism which is entirely false'".
“It is regrettable that Catholic laity have to remind the Prefect of the Faith of the admonition of his own predecessor.”
The mentioned instruction from Pius XI. expressly states, says Ward, "that no intention of the author can prevent 'the readers, whose fragility is generally great, as is their inclination to pleasure, owing to the corruption of their nature, from gradually falling into the nets of the lure of these impure pages.' caught'”.
Ward complains: “It is regrettable that almost a century after this instruction, the Catholic laity must remind the prefect of the admonition of his own predecessor.”
For the President of the Academy John Paul II, “these scandalous incidents show that Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández does not have the minimum qualities to fulfill the role of defender of the faith. For this reason, the Academy formally requests the Holy Father to dismiss him and to appoint in his place a competent theologian faithful to the moral teachings of the Church.”
The John Paul II Academy for Life and the Family was founded in 2017 by outstanding Catholic personalities and pro-life activists led by Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI. were appointed members of the Pontifical Academy for Life , but at the end of 2016, although appointed for life, fell victim to a Bergoglian purge
