Ultra-modernist Argentine Tucho Fernandez penning Francis’ post-synodal exhortation: natural law attacked

Via Rorate, the man who wrote Francis’ forgettable and problematic encyclical Evangelii Gaudium, Archbishop Tucho Fernandez (also the author of a strange book regarding kissing), is also reported to be penning his post-synodal exhortation.  This will sum up Francis’ take on the recently concluded Synod on the Family.  Early reviewers say the exhortation is just as disastrous as the source would suggest, including attacks on the natural moral law:

The president of the Pontifical Council for the Family [Abp. Paglia] has confirmed that Pope Francis’ post-synodal apostolic exhortation devoted to the family will be published by the end of March……

[Abp. Paglia] said the much-anticipated document, which summarizes the Pope’s conclusions of the two synods dedicated to the family, will be “a hymn to love, a love that wants to take care of the welfare of the young, to be close to wounded families to give them strength, a love that wants to be close to children as well as to all mankind in need. “

Well informed sources have told the Register that the document, which observers believe will probably be released on March 19 — the feast of St. Joseph and the 3rd anniversary of the Pope’s inauguration Mass — is in its third draft. They also say that the chief drafter is Archbishop Victor Manuel Fernández, rector of the the Pontifical Catholic University of Argentina in Buenos Aires and one of Pope Francis’ closest advisers.

One reliably informed source, a recognized moral theologian who has seen the draft, said he was “deeply disturbed” by the text as it “calls into question the natural moral law”. [Edward Pentin]

Go figure.  This Fernandez has also derided the opposition Francis faced at the two Synods as a tiny group of fanatics………can you feel the love?!?  He has proclaimed the Franciscan revolution as irreversible.  And yet, even still, even with the testimony of his closest associates, numerous apologists for this papacy still maintain their willful blindness.  They pretend all is well, Francis is perfectly orthodox, and there is a bridge for sale, mint condition!, between Long Beach and Catalina Island.

Tucho Fernandez if Francis’ picked man.  He is his house theologian, so to speak.  Francis has gone to bat for this man many times. He fought a battle against the Vatican to have him named head of the theology department of an Argentine Catholic university.  Francis named him an archbishop within two months of ascending to the Chair of Peter.  The man is a thorough-going modernist.  If you want to read more of his radical beliefs, check out this post by Vox.

Poor St. Joseph, will he have his holy name sullied by the release of this document on his primary feast day?  Is there nothing sacred, anymore?

Yeah……if you have to ask the question, you already know the answer.
