In the same week that five new complaints of alleged abuse against women committed by Fr. Marko Rupnik have been presented to the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith in Rome, it turns out that he is is still listed as a consultant to the Dicastery for Divine Worship. Just who and more importantly why is this man being protected,whilst the process reduces claims that the Church takes allegations of abuse seriously to the risible?

“Scandal: Rupnik is still a consultant to the Dicastery for Divine Worship?!”
Leafing in the Yearbook Pontificio 2024, where Silere non possum has already pointed out the presence of an additional title for the Pope, it is also possible to come across sad surprises.
In the section dedicated to the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, in fact, it is possible to find the name of Fr. Marko Ivan Rupnik S.I. It should be a mistake - quite serious given the media echo that this case has had - although it was still consultor it should no longer be appealed as a father and should not have the words S.I. that is Societas Iesu as he was discharged from the order. It should look like Rev. Rupnik Marko Ivan.
Now it is necessary to ask whether the Holy Father Francis has revoked his appointment or not. Also on the Dicastery is still present. Beyond his guilt or innocence that will be demonstrated in the trial that, we hope, will be celebrated at the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, we ask ourselves: but when would they have kept in a dicastery a subject accused of such crimes if it were not Rupnik? In our dioceses we have dozens of priests who have been suspended and removed in advance for much less serious charges. Rupnik, on the other hand, even as a consultor of the Pope’s dicasteries?
