For Aguiar, the heroes are “black sheep” within the Church, an assessment which is not totally wrong, as most of the Catholics are cowards, not heroes. Talking to journalists (October 24), Aguiar called the sinking of the idols “sad” and “a pity.”
About abolishing celibacy, Aguiar said that at the Synod a shortage of priests was claimed within the Amazon territory and “also in other places, particularly in Europe.” (video sequence about celibacy below)
In France, the European country mostly afflicted by a lack of priests, even liberal bishops are not keen on married priests as they would not have the money to pay them.
Aguiar believes that at the Synod [with its non-representative delegates] there will be a consensus about abolishing celibacy, but “at the end of the day, it’ll be Francis who decides.”
