Liturgical or Pastoral? Milei Receives Communion In St Peter's Basilica
Baptised and raised in a non-believing Catholic family, he doesn't practise the faith. Last year, he told ElPais.com that he reads the Penateuch ("Torah") every day and regularly communicates with "his rabbi" via WhatsApp.
Nevertheless, when on taking office he entered the Buenos Aires cathedral with his vice-president Victoria Villarruel, who attends Mass at a PiusX chapel, they both made a simultaneous genuflection before the Blessed Sacrament, unlike Jorge García, the archbishop of Buenos Aires. When Milei visited Jerusalem earlier this month, he was considering converting to Judaism.
Milei has no problem saying and doing everything and the opposite of everything.
Zenit.org asked the question whether, in the foul spirit of Fiducia Supplicans, his sacrilegious communion was more a "pastoral" or perhaps a "liturgical" reception of communion.
