A nightmare that has no end: that is the sick pontificate through which we are suffering.
The Pontifical Academy for Life was one of the very few positive post-conciliar creations. Unsurprisingly, it was born of the mind of Dr. Jerôme Lejeune, one of the greatest pro-life heroes, who suggested it to John Paul II and was named its first president.
Since the advent of Francis, the new Pontifical Academy for Life has become a hotbed of dissent from Catholic moral teaching: from contraception to homosexuality to abortion, and other doctrinal issues, there is no matter on which it has not caused scandal under the leadership of Abp. Vincenzo Paglia.
Its newest members were named by Francis yesterday, among them a radical leftist economist, an Italian living in the U.S. named Mariana Mazzucato. Mazzucato is an avowed atheist:
She's also so pro-abortion that when the greatest victory of American lay Catholics (and their allies) in decades, the reversal of the perverted and murderous Supreme Court illegal decision Roe v. Wade last June, was handed down in the majestic opinion of Dobbs, the new opinion was strongly decried by her:
Link to video that Mazzucotto thinks is "so good":
Ping
Frankie is just the wolf in sheep clothing...He is pro-life like Hitler was pro jewish
From one athiest to another.
An atheist, if strongly pro-life, might be a benefit.
DISGUSTING!
Does Frankie know any real prolife people?????
She’s not at all life. She’s pro-death.
Watch the video that she thinks is “So good”.
I am just saying a strongly pro-life nonbeliever could be a benefit. I have known a few.
But none of those have been chosen by Bergoglio.
I don’t understand your point.
Pope Davos
It’s no wonder “devout Catholics” such as Biden and Pelosi love Frankie so much.
Bummer.
An atheist, if strongly pro-life, might be a benefit.
She is the former but not the latter, yet somewhat pro capitalist, points to gov. sources for modern tech and advocating for more. Very smart, energetic (even being a mom of 4) and very influential, she may be one to watch. But her place as member of Pontifical Academy for Life is more testimony against Rome:
Yet the flock is told, "It follows that the Church is essentially an unequal society, that is, a society comprising two categories of per sons, the Pastors and the flock...the one duty of the multitude is to allow themselves to be led, and, like a docile flock, to follow the Pastors ." - VEHEMENTER NOS, an Encyclical of Pope Pius X promulgated on February 11, 1906.
The central premise of Mazzucato’s work is about the role of the state in innovation. She is an ardent believer that governments should do more than play a passive role in fixing market failures, and be allowed to embrace their entrepreneurial spirit to steer the direction of innovation and economic growth. The Italian-American economist is more than just a theorist. Her faith in the ability of governments to create inclusive and sustainable prosperity has found a large and receptive global audience. In the US, she has the ear of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren...Even before Ocasio-Cortez was elected to the House of Representatives, Mazzucato had met with her to discuss a Green New Deal, which has become one of the New Yorker’s flagship proposals....At this point, given her ubiquity in policymaking circles, it isn’t surprising to discover that Mazzucato has more than just passing interest in the Moon, since she’s worked with NASA to literally put her ideas into space. - https://qz.com/1669346/mariana-mazzucatos-plan-to-use-governments-to-save-capitalism-from-itself/

Mariana Francesca Mazzucato (born June 16, 1968[1]) is an economist with dual Italian–US citizenship. She is a professor in the Economics of Innovation and Public Value at University College London and founding director of the UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose (IIPP)...As well as national governments, Mazzucato has also served as an economic advisor to international institutions, including the World Economic Forum, the European Commission, the World Health Organization, the OECD, and the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs..In 2013, Mazzucato published her most famous work, The Entrepreneurial State.[55][56] The book pointed to the key role that government actors has played in driving radical innovations in their early stages, especially in the US... She argues in the book that public funds are laying the groundwork for the green revolution..
In 2018, Mazzucato published a second major book, The Value of Everything: making and taking in the global economy...The Entrepreneurial State had a significant impact on the public debate around growth and innovation and brought a wider acceptance of the importance of the public sector's role,[68] despite pushback from more right-wing commentators...The book was read by Pope Francis who commented "I believe [her vision] can help to think about the future".[76]
Are Catholics supposed to take the Catholic approach to abortion or the Muslim approach?
So I guess he’s not infallible after all.
What other man-made traditions are not to be trusted?
Maybe everything that is not in the Bible, the repetitive prayers, calling a man “father,” purgatory, transubstantiation, dishonoring Mary by deifying her, accretion of pagan practices such as venerating the dead and displaying skeletons and other body parts as relics.
Once we build on any other foundation than the Jesus of the Holy Bible, we open ourselves to all kinds of evil, including Francis the Argentine Marxist.
Since I first saw this, I read more on her. I’m not sure why she would be appropriate for this role, or why she’d even want to be on it.
Pius X may not have said that if he lived today.
I knew that rotten jerk was pro abortion.
“But he carried his own luggage.”
