"Cardinal linked to Vatican gay orgy emphasized ‘positive elements’ in gay lifestyle"
lifesitenews.com
"A high-ranking Vatican Cardinal who is one of Pope Francis’ key advisers spoke positively about homosexual relationships prior to his secretary being arrested by Vatican police for hosting a cocaine-fueled homosexual orgy in a building right next to St. Peter’s Basilica.
Cardinal Francesco Coccopalmerio, the Vatican’s top canonical official as head of the Pontifical Council for the Interpretation of Legal Texts, said in a 2014 interview that Catholic leaders, such as himself, must “emphasize” the 'positive realities' that he said are present in homosexual relationships.
'If I meet a homosexual couple, I notice immediately that their relationship is illicit: the doctrine says this, which I reaffirm with absolute certainty. However, if I stop at the doctrine, I don’t look anymore at the persons. But if I see that the two persons truly love each other, do acts of charity to those in need, for example ... then I can also say that, although the relationship remains illicit, positive elements also emerge in the two persons. Instead of closing our eyes to such positive realities, I emphasize them. It is to be objective and objectively recognize the positive of a certain relationship, of itself illicit,' he said in a 2014 interview with Rossoporpora.
When the interviewer noted that some attendees at the Synod on the Family were tending in such a direction towards homosexuals, Coccopalmerio agreed. He then immediately went on to criticize those who feared that 'valuing the positive elements' of homosexual relationships would be 'undermining' the Church’s doctrine on marriage and sexuality, saying such a conclusion was 'problematic.'
Italian media broke the news last week of the Cardinal’s secretary Monsignor Luigi Capozzi being arrested some two months ago in a raid of the former Palace of the Holy Office. Capozzi and others were allegedly engaged in homosexual activities while high on cocaine.
One of the most shocking elements of the scandal is that Capozzi’s arrest came on the verge of him being made a bishop on the recommendation of Coccopalmerio.
Michael Hichborn, president of the U.S.-based Lepanto Institute, told LifeSiteNews in a recent interview that it would practically be impossible for Coccopalmerio not to know about the orgies.
'Given the monitoring and whispering that goes on in the Vatican, it is unlikely to the point of absurdity that Cardinal Coccopalmerio was unaware of Msgr. Capozzi's disgusting activities.'
