Everything in me cries out that it's time to abandon whatever this "church" has become. Time after time I've watched as this "church" actively suppresses and destroys anything Catholic.

My parish finally got a young priest who actually spouts Catholic teaching, and of course he's suffering the consequences.

The destruction has become readily apparent under the Francis. The destroyers are positively gleeful.

While waiting for these times to pass we must be ready with a Plan B for when they do. The Hierarchy is presently stacked against us getting a Pope faithful to Christ who will preserve the Apostolic link & be vigilant in ensuring the correct interpretation of scripture & precepts of the OHC&A Church are being taught. Silent prelates must seek to assure us that such a Plan has been draw-up to be enforced as soon as PF no longer occupies the Seat of Peter.

"Father, you must stop this public criticism of the Holy Father."

Dude, step off. Either Pope Francis protected and promoted pedophiles, or Archbishop Viganó and Pope Emeritus Benedict (who has confirmed Viganó's report on National Catholic Register) are lying. Just whom do you find more credible? Fr Hunwicke has a duty to defend first and foremost the honor of the Faith, not that of an obfuscating, self-aggrandizing, Luther lionizing pedophile ally. Your sycophantic attitude would be comical if it were not so typical.

Dear Father. ABS thinks Mary and The Holy Ghost are to be credited and the most interesting race currently underway is will the pressure to resign increase so rapidly and powerfully that The Bishop of Rome will be forced to resign before he has a chance to Canonise his model in Faith, Paul VI.

O, and El Codo. Ultramontism and Papolatry are part of the reason for the way we are.

Father is to be credited for his courage not denounced as a crypto-protestant

The Catholic Church could use a million more Priests like Fr. Hunwicke who is acting like a man.

Come, come, let’s not give Peron a bad name.

The Church was corrupted after WWII following the American occupation of Western Europe. Unfortunately Francis doesn't seem to grasp this reality despite the damage inflicted on South America by American "capitalism". Can a country which, in addition to its economic imperialism, massacres the innocent of the Middle East, mysteriously produce bishops and priests faithful to mother church and mother Church alone?

This article by Aldo Maria Valli provides some personal background to Archbishop Vigano's decision to write the memorandum, and in my view amply supports the view that Archbishop Vigano is acting in utmost good faith and concern for the Church. Note that Valli says that he told Vigano that the others would try to discredit him, and he said he knew it and that he would go ahead anyway.

I'm sure the whole bloody bunch knew. I read Sipes blog in 2010 and his letter to Pope Benedict and wondered why McCarrick was made a Cardinal. But usually when the heat is on in the states they get booted up to the Vatican to avoid prosecution or unrest in the church. The Laity know what's going on. Most go for either social reasons or spiritual reasons and the filthy priests have been with us for centuries. So all politics is local. If I see any dirty priests in my parish I will report them directly to the police, as pedophilia or using ones position of power to abuse anyone sexually is a crime to be punished by Caesar not the church.

I found a very excellent reflection and commentary by Bp Athanasius Schneider on Father Z's blog.
His conclusions about what must happen now are so hopeful!

"That the Holy See and the Pope himself will start to cleanse uncompromisingly the Roman Curia and the episcopate from homosexual cliques and networks. (2) That the Pope will proclaim unambiguously the Divine doctrine about the grievously sinful character of homosexual acts..."

Speaking of narratives, wasn't it fascinating, the way PF diverted the plane Press Conference from homosexual power-cliques in the clergy and hierarchy to his obsession with mothers 'who were told not to contact the children' - i.e. the birth-children they've given away for adoption and upbringing. A moment's reflection tells anyone that this is a matter of legal and moral common sense, to avoid harm, severe mental confusion, and the undermining of the child and the adoptive parents. There is no such personal 'entitlement' to interfere in another family after giving up a baby for adoption - nor is doing so following 'the Fourth Commandment'. What an eccentric and one-sided interpretation of that Commandment! And what a remarkable ignorance of the law...

...Unless of course it was just a deliberately diversionary avoidance tactic by a desperate man.

There is no blood test for gay. The honest people who admit it will be weeded out. The dishonest will stay and be driven deeper into the closet only to fester there. Witchhunts never work.

Archbishop Vigano says that much of what he alleges is supported by documents in the relevant archives of the nunciature in Washington and the Vatican. It is vital that these documents are published asap before the shredders get there. If they exist they will provide conclusive evidence of the truth of what the Archbishop has alleged. Unless we have a statement from the nunciature in Washington in the next week we can assume that they do exist.

 

 

 

 

Own comment: 

All I know is that Bergoglio is a chronic liar.

I would believe almost anybody else if it came down to a word-against-word and Bergoglio was the other party.
