Following the controversial fetus incident, what action was Pavone expecting?

  • Public Backlash

  • Excommunication

  • Defrocking

  • Praise

Answer

After the incident involving the fetus, Pavone was expecting to be defrocked, or excommunicated, by the Catholic Church. This is because the Catholic Church considers abortion to be a mortal sin, and Pavone's actions were seen as condoning this sin. However, Pavone was not defrocked, and instead he was given a six-month suspension. This suspension was later lifted, and Pavone has continued to work as a priest.
