It’s pretty fascinating watching the secular media react to the Vigano letter. That letter rallied a bunch of conservative and traditional Catholics against Pope Francis and are now calling on him to resign. While Pope Benedict was not a conservative, he did appear to be one to the outside world. Vigano’s letter deeply indicts Francis in lifting restrictions placed on McCarrick by Benedict. The secular media isn’t going after Francis. They’re just saying that conservatives in the Church are rallying and trying to oust Francis. If Benedict was caught doing what Francis had done, the media would be showing absolutely no mercy. It shows how much the media really cares about sex scandals in the Church. They only care about them if they can advance their leftist agenda.
This letter also revealed the fact that there is a huge homosexual cabal in the clerical ranks of the Church of which Ted McCarrick was only one. Though McCarrick is out of the picture, many others remain. They have been outed by Archbishop Vigano in his letter.
I must say that what Vigano did was very brave. He’s nearing the end of his life and he knew that if he didn’t stand up for the true faith, no one was going to. The homosexuals in the Church have made a lot of progress but now they’ve been exposed. I’ve actually known about this for a long time, but now the world knows about it. Archbishop Vigano has shown everyone and the letter is online for all to see.
People don’t realize how big this move by Archbishop Vigano was. Now that the homosexual lobby is exposed to the world, it’ll be harder for their influence to spread. However, this doesn’t mean that they’re going to give up. I think the secular media is only lightly touching this because they want it to blow over. They want the Church to collapse on sexual issues so the elites can use sexual liberation as a form of control.
Vigano is in hiding so he probably can’t do much more. On the other hand, the average Catholic is aware of the homosexual cabal within the Church. It’s not just Traditionalist propaganda anymore. I encourage many lay people to take up this fight. We’re part of the Church as well. We should demand accountability from our leaders.
A couple hundred years ago, Ted McCarrick would have been taken to the public square in Rome and burned for the crime of sodomy. This doesn’t happen today.
Many of those in the homosexual cabal are in America including Fr. James Martin. People might think that this is good because America is not a Catholic country and the Church has strongholds elsewhere in the world such as Latin America, Africa, and Asia. However, the Church gets most of its money from America. The Church doesn’t make money from winning souls in Africa. Because of that, the Church in Africa and other parts of the world doesn’t have much influence in the overall Church. A sad reality but a true one.
What can we do as lay Catholics? Well, one easy thing to do is keep talking about this. Even the homosexual lobby doesn’t want their sins exposed, such as with McCarrick and the homosexual priests in Pennsylvania. The more attention the homosexual lobby gets, the worse it’ll be for them. It’s not hard, get on Twitter and make some noise!
I’ve met loads of priests who I am certain must have been inclined to “bat for the other side”. However given that priests and monks are celibate (and supposedly chaste) such inclinations should have no relevance. There should be no homosexual priests because sexuality ought not to be an issue.
Great harm has been done through the abuse of minors by priests – and the issue avoided by the Western media is that it is abuse by homosexuals. Time and time again the Church authorities have had the opportunity to deal with this and they have failed to do so. We need a purge.
I am amazed that this is getting so little coverage in the mainstream media. Like you have said before, they hate the Roman Church but love Francis and he is found to be at fault in some way so they aren’t so keen to report this. That fact that homosexual predation is the issue makes it something that the MSM does not like to report either.
Francis is not a reformer, neither is he coherent or effective. I doubt that the Curia would elect a reformer either. (The voting must have had nothing to do with the Holy Spirit – alas.) How about a mass uprising of Catholic laymen who tell the Pope and his cardinals to get stuffed while we get on with the normal routines of worship, and we just ignore the vain, silly old duffers who occupy seat of authority?
Enough is enough. This really won’t do. Mark this, I am not aware that anyone has mentioned the punishment that will be meted out to the perpetrators of these awful acts. In fact there is no mention of accountability or due punishment at all.
Hi Christopher,
I’m also mad at the media and the Bishops who turn a blind eye and do nothing about this homosexual cabal. Archbishop Vigano is a hero and I want him to be the next Pope. With a Pope like him, we will clean house.
I also find it hilarious that no one is listening to Josh Shapiro anymore now that the Vigano thing is out. I don’t feel sorry for him as he’s a deeply dishonest man and never mentions that only two priests were indicted. Shapiro is just as dishonest as the mainstream media. They don’t care about the victims. They only care about smearing the Church.
God Bless,
Allan
To what degree are we certain that we are dealing specifically with a homosexual cabal? I ask because although the victims were mainly boys, some were also girls. It seems that the common denominator is that all victims were children. If this is true, is not more accurate to state that we are dealing with a pedophilia cabal?
Hi Mark,
They were not all children. In the case of McCarrick, they were priests and seminarians.
God bless,
Allan
