Rocco Buttiglione’s Response to the Four Cardinals’ Dubia

The noted Italian Catholic politician and philosopher Rocco Buttiglione has emerged as one of the most prominent defenders of Pope Francis’ Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia (AL).  Well, even the most brilliantly qualified apologist is going to have an uphill battle if he seeks – as Buttiglione does – to demonstrate that this very confusing document … Read more

Pope’s “Mouthpiece” Spadaro Used Fake Sock-Puppet Account to Attack Four Cardinals

Almost two weeks ago I reported on the bizarre social media behavior of Antonio Spadaro, the Pope’s “mouthpiece” and editor of the influential Jesuit journal La Civiltà Cattolica. He had used Twitter in various ways to attack the “four cardinals” who had submitted the “dubia” to Pope Francis.
