(Kevin Beary. The Remnant).
To make the Church less masculine: this is the task that Pope Francis has given the International Theological Commission. Or at least, that is the official translation of the Italian word Francis used, smaschilizzare, which the English-language media rightly translated as “demasculinize”, i.e. “emasculate, castrate”. “Rendere meno maschile,” which Francis did not say, would translate literally as “to make less masculine.”
But how can anyone, much less a pope, contemplate demasculinizing a Church that was founded by the only-begotten Son of God who came down from heaven and become man? Where did Francis get this blasphemously bizarre idea?
