Funny thing about Catholicism. Unless the Pope is speaking in a very specific manner known as Ex Cathedra, anything he says is nothing more than his opinion and can be discarded as such.
The Congregation for Doctrine of the Faithful however, has no such restrictions. The Dignitas Personae authored by the CDF is and remains the authoritative source on matters relating to medical treatments and methods derived from aborted fetal cell lines. Spoiler alert, it's outright forbidden.
So once again Bergoglio advocates committing a mortal sin
Did you see something from the Church specifically on the MRNa forbidding it? I ask because I saw something to the opposite explaining why it was okay, even if the original cells came from an aborted fetus, which from what I read, they're not sure did. The original cells came from a Scandanavian fetus who died in the early 70's. All cells used are regrown from those original ones. I couldn't believe the Church was supporting the shot, but after reading their position, I could understand.
What I've seen is a document recently suggesting that if the alternative is killing an innocent in your own family, that partaking in such a morally compromised treatment is a potential option, but one that must always be a careful consideration. Doing so out of a desire to conform to social pressure or to preserve your own life would still inarguably be a grave sin.
And in this missive they quoted and restated the Dignitas Personae.
