Timothy Radcliffe, lover of anuses and a guy who’ll vote in the election of the next Pope
Radcliffe wanted to turn Africa into a big anal orgy.
And he would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for those pesky Russians and their morbid fixation on penis-in-vagina.
Gay-rights activist Father Timothy Radcliffe, who will be made a cardinal by Pope Francis in December, has blamed African opposition to homosexuality on “intense pressure” from outside influences like American evangelicalism.
The Catholic Church must be open to everyone, whoever they are, Father Radcliffe writes this week in the Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, “the divorced and remarried, gays, transgender people.”
“But in some parts of the world, welcoming gays is seen as scandalous,” he states. “Many Catholic bishops in Africa see it as an attempt to impose a decadent Western ideology on the rest of the world.”
That’s just what it is.
Whatever you want to say about the blacks, they did not have this problem before decadent white perverts went there and started telling them about “the other hole.”
It’s sick.
The priest notes with chagrin that Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo of Kinshasa, president of the organization that represents all the Catholic bishops of Africa, traveled to Rome in December 2023 to explain to Pope Francis why the African bishops could not embrace a Vatican text titled Fiducia Supplicans that opened the possibility of granting priestly blessings to gay couples.
“Never before had all the bishops of a continent repudiated a Vatican document,” Radcliffe writes. “Every attempt was made to calm the crisis.”
“Is the refusal to bless gays in Africa an example of inculturation or a refusal to be a nonconformist?” Radcliffe asks. “Inculturation for one person is another person’s rejection of the nonconformist Gospel.”
You sure it has nothing to do with this, Timmy?
Curiously, in his attempt to explain why the African bishops rejected en masse a proposal to bless gay couples, Father Radcliffe does not look to biblical teaching on homosexuality nor to the Church’s unchanging doctrine condemning gay sex.
Instead, he suggests that “African bishops are under intense pressure from Evangelicals, with American money; from Russian Orthodox, with Russian money; and from Muslims, with money from the rich Gulf countries.”
Maybe ask why then that if every religion is against gays, the Catholic Church is going to Africa and telling men to take it in the ass?
Why are they doing that? What is the end game?
In other words, if the African bishops are rejecting the idea of blessing same-sex couples, it cannot be out of fidelity to Christ and his Gospel; it must represent a caving to external pressures.
If Father Radcliffe had bothered to read Cardinal Ambongo’s own explanation for the African bishops’ action, things might have been somewhat clearer.
“In Africa there is no place to bless homosexual couples. Not at all,” the cardinal stated.
Blessings for individual persons are given “in the hope that the grace of the blessing can help them convert,” he said. “And if we bless a homosexual, it is also to say that ‘your sexual orientation is not in accordance with the will of God and we hope that the blessing can help you change because homosexuality is condemned in the Bible and by the magisterium of the Church.’”
“We cannot be promoters of sexual deviation. Let them do it in their homes, but not in ours,” he said.
See: the black is clearly saying that you are allowed to bless homosexuals, but only in the context of urging them to stop being gay. What the Vatican is now pushing is something completely different, saying that they will bless the homosexual act.
Unbiased readers may have trouble understanding how such a statement — which faithfully reflects Catholic moral teaching — could represent capitulation to Evangelicals, Orthodox, and Muslims.
Similarly, Bishop Martin Mtumbuka of the Karonga Diocese in Malawi told the faithful of his diocese in a Christmas Eve address last year to “forget and ignore this controversial and apparently blasphemous declaration in its entirety.”
“Was this letter written to please homosexuals and their promoters?” Bishop Mtumbuka asked.
The document Fiducia Supplicans “looks to us like a heresy; it reads like a heresy; and its effects a heresy,” he said.
“It’s sad; the Catholic Church is old, as old as Christianity itself; this has never happened before,” he said. “But we have no choice; we cannot allow such an offensive and apparently blasphemous declaration to be implemented in our Dioceses.”
It’s so over.
The Vatican is a militant anal group now, and this means there must absolutely be a schism.
The blacks are simply saying it outright, because they are not cowards like white people who just make snide remarks and hope that their problems magically disappear, or never actually existed in the first place.
I see these “trad caths” on Twitter, and they are jumping through insane hoops to try and explain how this is not heresy.
To be fair to white people, however, it is difficult to understand how something like this is even possible.
