(45,319 posts)and urged me to be patient and not rain on your Pope's parade with honesty. Do you think you have the right to lecture like that? I asked you specific questions which you ignored. I asked how a man can be said to have been dumped when he retains his primary posting as Head of the Vatican court, second in legal authority only to the Pope? Is dumped honest wording in your opinion, that was the question I asked. You did not answer, but rather lectured. Is it polite to ignore what is said to you and instead chide your peers? Do you treat those you see as equals like that? I doubt it.
He was 'dumped' although he is still holding the very high office as head of the court. Dumped. I don't see that as honest. Also the OP shows no evidence his alteration in duties has to do with his attitudes, which are the same as the Pope's, about abortion and gay equality. This man retains his primary posting as head of the Vatican's court, his only superior is the Pope himself. To call that 'dumped' and to ascribe exploitative fantasy reasons for it is in my opinion highly dishonest and creepy.
