Archbishop Julian Barrio (Santiago, Spain) Ordains Sodomite Couple

Article copied and pasted from this link: http://forums.carm.org/vb5/forum/churches-orthodox-heterodox/general-church-topics/roman-catholicism/4312983-archbishop-of-santiago-ordains-public-sodomite-couple-to-the-priesthood

It has been reported that the “Archbishop” of Santiago de Compostela, Spain, Julián Barrio Barrio, has just “ordained” two men who are publicly known as sodomite lovers, according to Gabriel Ariza of the Spanish web site InfoVaticanahttp://infovaticana.com/2016/12/12/a...biendo-pareja/

Here is an English translation of the article.

The Archbishop of Santiago ordained two homosexuals to the priesthood whom he knew to be a couple.

Julián Barrio has committed a grave offense by conferring the priesthood on two men, knowing their status as active homosexuals who live together as a couple.


That morning in Santiago de Compostela would not leave the clergy and faithful of the Galician capital indifferent. The rain falling on the glass of the episcopal palace would not be able to wash away the grave offense that the bishop was deliberately going to commit against his own church.

At noon, in one of the most spectacular and most visited cathedrals in the world, six men were to be ordained priests forever by Archbishop Julián Barrio.

The ordinance [forbidding the ordination of homosexuals] is not new and Archbishop Barrio was not unaware of it, but he preferred to ignore the doctrine, many times expressed and gleaned by the tradition of the Church, when he ordained as presbyters, as priests of the Catholic Church, two men who had publicly manifested themselves as homosexuals and also presented themselves to parishioners as a couple.

Not only did Don Julián [Abp. Julián Barrio] know about this, one of his vicars dined at the house of the couple, who are artists, a few days before the ordination. The ordination of these priests, whose identities we will not make public for obvious reasons, created unrest in the clergy of Compostela, who cannot understand how their archbishop can “impose heavy burdens on others” that he himself avoids.

The Archbishop of Santiago de Compostela, Julian Barrio, is walking a tight rope

The matter, amply known to the diocesan curia, has reached the ears of the Vatican’s Congregation for the Clergy, which is now studying the matter. This may mean an unexpected resignation by Barrio from the Compostela Archdiocese, something that already happened in a similar case involving his fellow bishop Manuel Ureña, who was removed as Archbishop of Zaragoza after a scandal with a deacon.

This is not the first scandal involving Archbishop Barrio. Two years go Info Vatican revealed the existence of several notebooks in which the [cathedral] electrician, who was [also] the perpetrator of the Codex Calixtinus heist, related the sexual encounters of some members of the cathedral chapter house with seminarians and pilgrims.

The Doctrine of Various Popes

This episode, which has been ignored by the Galician ecclesiastical authorities, is especially grave in light of Francis’ recently published document in which he reiterates that "homosexual person may not be admitted to sacred orders."

It is the Congregation for the Clergy, with the express approval of Francis, that has published the document: "The Gift of Priestly Vocation - Ratio Fundamentalis Institutionis Sacerdotalis" on the formation of priests.

“It would be gravely imprudent to admit to the sacrament of Orders a seminarian who does not enjoy free and serene affective maturity. He must be faithful to celibate chastity through the exercise of human and priestly virtues, understood as openness to the action of grace, rather than the mere achievement of continence by will power alone”, the document says.

End of English translation.

  1. Absolutely nothing is changing in the Vatican about allowing perversion into the seminaries. Not when the word from Rome is to allow "transitional homosexuals" entrance.
