Cardinal Fernandez Mocks Catholics: "Couples are blessed. The union is not blessed"

Cardinal Fernández attempts to further mislead (gaslighting) his audience by inventing the hypocritical distinction between homosexual “couple” and “union”: “Couples are blessed. The union is not blessed.”

Talking to PillarCatholic.com (December 22), he gave the impression that the “blessing” was for “two very close friends who share good things”, even if they have sinned homosexually. Fernández “often” met such couples, who are sometimes “exemplary”.

The blessing can be given “even if there is some kind of [homo]sexual relationship”. The blessing, he said, would allegedly “not validate or justify anything”.

About the German de facto schism [which wants the same thing as he does], Fernández said: “Some bishops have gone ahead with ritualized forms of blessing irregular couples, and this is inadmissible. They should reformulate their proposal in this regard.” He is “planning a trip to Germany to have some conversations that I believe are important”.

Fernández reacted with mockery to the strong opposition of African bishops: “Prudence and attention to the local culture could allow different ways of application, but not a total denial of this step required of priests.”

He went on with derision: “I well understand the concern of the bishops in some African or Asian countries, in places where being homosexual might put you in prison. It is an affront to human dignity that certainly distresses the bishops, and challenges them in their fatherhood. It is likely that the bishops do not want to expose homosexual persons to violence. They themselves refer [however consenting!] to the ‘legislation’ of their countries.”

Finally, Fernández’ came up with wishful thinking: “I want to go to Heaven and be very happy with God eternally.”
