Vatican “Sex
Abuse Summit”:
... a disgraceful
travesty; nothing more
“Pansies clearly
are not flowers — that is only an hypothesis to be proven”
“Cardinal
Cupich’s comments at today’s Vatican press conference show that
he denies any causal connection between homosexuality or a homosexual
subculture and sexual abuse, even though he doesn’t deny that
80 percent of the abuse is same-sex ... Cupich ... refuses
to investigate whether there is a tacit agreement among homosexual
prelates to cover up such abuse.”

It is vital that you understand the following to grasp
the hypocrisy, duplicity, and deceit involved:
-
“Homosexual rape” is never
addressed as such at this “summit”. Instead, it
is routinely spoken of only in terms of “misconduct”
— which can be virtually any unacceptable
behavior. The infamous Father Paul Shanley of St.
Patrick’s in Stoneham was convicted
for “raping a child” — he was not convicted
for “misconduct”.
-
Men who force women into sexual
acts are not guilty of “misconduct” — they
are committing rape.
-
Every single bishop — apparently
by prearranged agreement — substituted
the word “misconduct” for “rape”
-
Every single bishop used
a Vatican-minted and sanitized neologism:
“male-on-male sex” instead of “homosexual
sodomy” or “homosexual sex”
Apparently — very apparently — they do
not want to bring the word “homosexuality” into disrepute — in perhaps
an effort to protect themselves.
Ask yourself the following: Since when is forcefully
(or even consensually) sodomizing another man merely
a case of “misconduct”?
It is a horrific sin and a crime before God
and man. (Romans 1.27)
And yet
Archbishop Scicluna in a paroxysm of absurdity maintains that:
“I don’t think in anything
that’s happened here anyone has suggested that people with
homosexual tendencies equal people who are abusing [minors],
and that should be clear.”
Flat-lining
Scicluna is in apparent need of an electroencephalogram
to certify that he is not brain-dead ... or he flat-lined
upon uttering that absurdity. May I suggest an alternative, and
even more compelling narrative, Scicluna?
That IS the whole conspicuous
and utterly indisputable point!
It IS
homosexuals who are committing these crimes and Church bureaucrats refuse
to acknowledge it — no matter how much evidence is amassed before
them. It is the resolute refusal to believe the obscene,
the scatological reality that actually exists — and an attempt to build
an entirely fictional reality in place of it; a narrative in
which homosexuals are the “oppressed victims”
who are at least implicitly “discriminated against”
for raping and sodomizing other men — and yes, children!
To contest otherwise

as of 23 February 2019: minus
100. In other words, NONE! ZERO. ZIP!
This is not a myopic perspective confined to traditional
Catholic media. Consider the following excerpts from the secular
media:
|
“THE CATHOLIC CHURCH’S decades-long
practice of enabling and systematically covering up the
rape and molestation of children by priests is by now sickeningly
familiar. Yet the scale of abuse; the breadth and depth
of trauma inflicted by predators wearing Roman collars;
and the coldbloodedness of senior church figures zealous
in their resolve to protect the church but indifferent to
the suffering of minors, retain their power to shock the
conscience.” —

“IT
IS EVIDENT that the Catholic Church is incapable on its
own of exorcising the scourge of clergy sex abuse. The scandal
raged unchecked for decades and, even after it was exposed
in
2002 by the Boston Globe
, has been met by the church hierarchy with
denial, temporizing, stone
walling and half-measures.”

“Even
as apologists for the Vatican and the clergy continue peddling
the myth that the Catholic Church’s pedophile scandals simply
reflect society’s problems, the weight of evidence is overwhelming
proof to the contrary. Thousands of American priests weaponized
faith, as Mr. Shapiro said, taking advantage of their status
and access to children to prey on them. They left uncountable
thousands of victims in their wake.”

I don’t believe a word of Francis, the prime facilitator
of this abomination. I don’t believe the bishops’ factitious sincerity,
their “perplexity”, their suddenly epiphanous realization of
this detestable state of affairs that has lacerated the Church for the
last 50 years and beyond. I especially do not believe their sanctimonious
“truthfulness” for a minute — or even as much as their clearly impaired
cognitive faculties.
But I DO believe in their willingness to
enter into complicity to continue to conceal, to contrive
nonsensical verbal schemes to confuse the issue, to lie, to equivocate,
to publicly insult the intelligence of ordinary men and women, and to
try to expunge the absolutely vile and incontestable issue of homosexual
predation in the Church from “further consideration”
— and to prevent any further intrusion into their dark, deep, and
salacious network.
Of course, this is, as Cupich would insist, a mere
“hypothesis to be proven”, mere conjecture, an opinion only —
despite the testimony of thousands of victims.
These are not cardinals and bishops — they are not
even “men”; they are spiders
and flies — an unparalleled disgrace in the history of the Church,
and personally responsible, each of them, all of them, for the loss
of countless souls who abandon the Church in disgust.
