'A book just published by the French conservative Catholic Jean-Pierre Moreau portrays Jorge Bergoglio as a liberal iconoclast inspired by quasi-Marxist liberation theology. I think that’s wrong, and he is what he’s always been: a Peronist. Like Juan Perón, the populist President of Argentina during his childhood, he is more interested in power than in ideas. My Vatican source talks of Francis’s “powerful charm, his way of making you think you’re the only person who matters”.'
That was a quote from #DamianThompson, in #unHerd . He claims that the media, believing Pope Francis to be essentially a reformer, gave little attention to stories that didn't fit their chosen narrative.
This week, @prismnpen's #LGBTQ writers cry out our human right to the dignity religious leaders, journalists and other elements of society seem determined to withhold from #gay, #transgender, and other #queer humans.
We are not depraved, #PopeFrancis, despite your Church’s dignity-destroying assertion!
