Fr. Martin is the bigot

Several years ago, there was a big doctrinal dust up in a Catholic school. 

There was nothing extraordinary about the dust up, its like all the others we experience.   You know the routine.  Somebody who objects to Church teaching had a melt down when it was taught and orders were issued by hierarchs to stop teaching it.

Catholics working two jobs so they can keep their children away from the sexual grooming in government schools and have a curriculum consistent with what the Church teaches and what we teach at home, are robbed.  Sending Catholic children to Catholic schools can do more damage than sending them to public schools.

The incident involved two lesbians who didn't want anyone in the school to be taught the lifestyle they've chosen is a habitual state of mortal sin which leads to hell.   So they went to the press and Cardinal O'Malley, as he has consistently done in the past, issued orders that the lifestyle the two lesbians were living be affirmed, Church teaching be silenced and all the other children in the school - hundreds - be deprived of Catholic moral teaching.

This one incident affected thousands of practicing Catholics.    And there are millions of incidents just like it in every Catholic apostolate, parish and school.

How - and more importantly why, did we let the narrative become gays are being excluded?   Practicing Catholics are the people being discriminated against and excluded.

This outstanding article by Robert Royal charitably explains the 'exclusionary' culture inside and outside of the Catholic Church.

Fr. Martin, again from what people told me of the session, was quite brilliant in weaving stories about people feeling pain and rejection because of their sexual desires. But that, too, is a different thing, of course. It’s clever to speak of “feeling excluded” in democratic societies, because one of the modern nation-state’s claims to legitimacy is that it both includes and values all people, is more universal than the Universal Church itself. 

That claim is quite doubtful, as numbers of traditional Christians who have been told to keep quiet or lost jobs – in business, the military, even government – might attest. But again, pace Fr. Martin, traditional Christianity is not hate or bias or exclusion of persons. To say that really is a diversionary tactic to avoid facing the main question: Judging whether actsare right or wrong is precisely what it means for us to be beings that are so constituted as to need to make moral choices. 

The sentimentality that has entered the Church as a whole, however, combined with the modern obsession with feelings rather than truth simply overwhelms such simple and obvious distinctions.

Maybe the trajectory at this point is to mirror their strategy of telling the stories of what gay priests and bishops have been doing to faithful Catholic families.    I once had a basement full of letters Catholics sent me describing outrageous conduct.   It was overwhelming, especially for my children.

The stories documented papertrail notifications to the Chancery and all the way to Rome, so everyone from Cardinal O'Malley to Pope Francis knows faithful Catholic families are the targets of discrimination.

Heads are spinning in chanceries, wondering why the vigilantes are back banging on their doors.   The real answer is, the election of a pope who heralds and advances the bigots.   It was the final straw.

We want our faith taught/affirmed in our schools, seminaries, parishes and apostolates.    Gays and feminists who reject Church teaching, narcissist priests and bishops focused on money and advancement have been stopping that from happening. 

Perhaps having central places on the internet exclusively dedicated to aggregating and re-exposing these stories will be the gasoline we need on the burning fires.

Pope Francis HomoHeresy Family Fest

Maybe I shouldn't be, but I'm really surprised how homosexual the agenda is at Pope Francis World Meeting of Families.

I knew all the homosexual bishops and priests were running it, but never in a million years did I think it would be so openly gay. 

Fr. James Marin urges Catholics to 'examine attitudes' towards gay Catholics.

 Why isn't he asking gay Catholics to examine their attitudes towards Church teaching and those who want their families to hear and practice it?

  Instead, he recommends priests stop leading homosexual Catholics to refrain from their sinful desires with the help of the Sacraments and start "listening" to homosexuals who reject Church teaching.

Parishes, he said, should strive to listen to LGBT parishioners — “trust that the Holy Spirit will guide them in their formation as Christians and Catholics,” rather than “simply repeating Church teaching without considering their lived experience.”

He's asking priests to let the witness of the Church teaching be homosexuals who reject Church teaching and pursue the life of a habitual state of mortal sin.

 I don't want to give them any ideas, but if that's the case, why isn't Fr. Martin recommending Catholics "examine attitudes" and 'consider' the lived experience of people who enjoy pornography?

After all, there are active Catholics priests who 'live the experience' of giving teens porn and condoms      Why isn't Fr. Martin incorporating these 'invitations' into his presentations?


Pope Francis has also given Martin the audience and tools to recommend homosexuals who openly reject Church teaching and live in a habitual state of mortal sin be made Eucharistic Ministers.

 Why doesn't Fr. Martin advocate inviting Eucharistic Ministers who masturbate?

 Why isn't there a presentation at Pope Francis World Meeting of Families on "Showing welcome and respect for sadomasichists and their families"?

Of course, we all know the answers to these questions.  But, the fact that the Holy Father is even going to this homosexual theological orgy shows you how far the devil has advanced in the minds of the episcopal see.

 I believe mystery of why Cardinal Sean decided this would be the week he would sit down and read 12 years of mail piled up on his desk has been solved.

An absolute dis-Grace and infuriating.

Body of Fall River Priest Fr. William Costello Found in Texas, FBI Takes Over Case

Is a RICO investigation already underway?

I've been following this bizarre story for a couple of days, chiefly because Fr. Costello's vocation had been surrounded with gay controversies which the diocese of Fall River swept under the rug. 

I was under the impression Fr. Costello had been laicized after  Rhode Island police 'investigated' a complaint.  Sources indicate the kerfluffle involved a sexual relationship with a young man he met at rest stop which turned sour and parish funds were being used as hush money.   But, he apparently was a priest in good standing at the time of his untimely death.

 Recent statements from the diocese indicate no charges were filed and the case was not prosecuted.

No charges were filed against Costello at any time during the investigation or at its completion, the Diocese said. Kearns declined Monday to elaborate on the nature of the Rhode Island State Police investigation.

Are we at the day and age when its acceptable for a diocese to decline to elaborate on misconduct?

Was it sexual misconduct with an adult?   Did witnesses become uncooperative?   Did victims decide it was not worth the hassle? 

There were ramifications.   Following the incident, the bishop forced him to 'retire' for...'using poor judgment'. 

Poor judgment? 

If allegations are true, a priest cruising rest stops to have consensual sex with young gay males and using parish funds for hush money when things turn ugly, is hardly the exercise of  'poor judgment'.

 Poor judgment is when you use Marty Haugen songs in the Novus Ordo. 

 Fr. Costello went missing about a week ago.   

A suspect led police to his buried body, more arrests are expected and the FBI has taken over the case. 

 The FBI. 

 The statements from the diocese are filled with praise for Fr. Costello and bewilderment he met with such a disturbing end.    No indication whatsoever that Fr. Costello had history of sexual predation.


Fr. Costello was also involved in a 2010 gay controversy with Fr. John Harrington. 

Fr. Harrington is familiar to many in the prolife community.  It's my understanding nothing sexual was implied in the stalking discussion.     There is no question he's orthodox, faithful and has been a victim of corruption.  I think its also fair to say he's intense and that intensity sometimes sabotages his own best interests.  

For example, if your pastor asks you to give an individual some personal space, using your Sunday homily to mount a crusade against him is not a 'winner, winner, chicken dinner' strategy.     

But, here's the bottom line:

Fr. Harrington has been complaining about the sexually active gay network of priests for decades and they took him out of commission instead of getting to the bottom of what's causing the commotion.   

After all is said and done, it seems to me that early retirement packages, coverups, singing praises and feigned surprise that Fr. Costello ended up in a shallow grave with the FBI on the case, is a colossal case of 'poor judgment' that is part and parcel of our never-ending nightmare. 

Pope Francis Letter to People of God-All Hat No Cattle

As a viral post on Twitter observes, Pope Francis Letter blaming "clericalism" for ordaining thousands of homosexual predators fails to identify the root cause of the problem.

Not to worry, the Holy Father said the Romans will spare no effort tackling the problem. 

How much "tackling" there will be is anyones guess.  Rumors are, they are sending a linebacker who supports gay marriage.  He's not being sent to purge sexually active homosexuals.

Judging from the comments all over social media, the letter went over with the people of God like a lead balloon.

I will say it again:

Nighty Nights Tobin
Blaise Cupich
Reinhard Marx
Walter Casper
Heiner Koch
Oscar Maradiaga
Vincenzo Paglia
Lorenzo Baldisseri
Francesco Coccopalmerio
Donald Wuerl
John Stowe
Antionio Cruz Santos
Fr. Timothy Radcliffe
Fr. James Martin
Fr. Battista Ricca

Talk is cheap.

Domine, delexi decorum domus tuae et locum habitationis gloriae tuae.

Was your homily about the fugazzi?

I could tell our pastor was not himself this week.    He's rock solid, but you just tell something was on his mind.  I was up at 5 prepping a meal for a new mom and hit the 7:30am Mass.   I was expecting a homily about the Eucharist, but it was about McCarrick, the mess in PA and St. John's Seminary.

He corrected the impression the problem was caused by pedophiles and explained it was because of sexually-active homosexual priests and bishops.   A compassionate man, he did a superlative job reaffirming moral theology and explaining the reasons why homosexual men should not be ordained and why sexually active priests and bishops must be purged.    He wisely explained that a priest who isn't teaching moral theology is often a warning sign there's an underlying problem with sin.

He told us not to worry about how that would impact parish closures, priests may need to take on four or five parishes and that is what they will do - so be it.  He said now is time for priests to speak up and asked us to pray for courage.

I couldn't agree more.

Over the last 20 years, I've been an advocate of faithful priests keeping a low profile.     We all know what happens if they don't.   They're penalized by Church leadership.

But, the time has finally come to throw the pirates overboard and take control of the ship.   This is the hour.

If a priest is aware of any priests in the diocese whom you suspect or is rumored not be celibate, put it in writing and send a certified letter to the bishop of the see, with a certified copy of the letter to the nuncio.  I recommend laity do the same.

As a blogger, I'm preparing a list of things that have been passed on to me. I have no way of verifying the credibility of rumors and allegations.   That is their job.  Believe me when I tell you having a traceable paper trail is a whole new ballgame.

I would add to one thing he did say.  He reminded us that Pope Francis recently said that homosexuals should not be ordained. 

That he did.

But, that doesn't help us one bit if he praises priests and bishops with long histories of  homoheresy and errors, promotes and appoints them to everything, and applauds from the sidelines as they sell homoheresy to our children.

Here is just a partial wall of shame:

Blaise Cupich
Reinhard Marx
Walter Casper

Lorenzo Baldisseri
Francesco Coccopalmerio

The biggest red flag of all:  Nighty Nights Baby Tobin.   His explanation  is simply not believable and for all we know, his message could be to an under age child.     He should immediately be removed pending a forensic investigation


And the 2018 Word Meeting of Families is a homosex cheerleading camp.

While we are openly speaking about scandal and dis-grace of Catholic leaders, its imperative to openly discuss the hardest thing we've ever had to say in the history of the Catholic Church in our lifetime:    There is a serious problem with the Holy Father that jeopardizes the safety and salvation of every baptized Catholic.    At present, this is the most serious problem in the Church.

Along with the laicization of sexually-active priests and bishops and their enablers and all that comes with it, the Holy Father's must immediately stop appointing homoheretics and remove the ones he has appointed.   Every. Single. One.

Lots of prayers for all who are feeling discouraged. 

For whatever reason, I'm feeling emboldened and on fire.   Reading Bishop Morlino's letter, hearing todays homily from a good shepherd, speaking with solid Catholics, for the first time in my lifetime, the right ammunition is flying towards the right targets.  It used to be just a few of us, but its coming from everywhere.   The wind has shifted.    Worthy is the Lamb.

My heart was inflamed and my emotions were changed to excitement; the zeal for your house has consumed me.  He has made my mouth as a sharp sword. under the shadow of his hand he has protected me, and has made me as a chosen arrow.

BREAKING! Catholics Circulate Petition for Wuerl's Resignation

Our friends at Boston Catholic Insider have put together a petition  asking Wuerl to man up and resign.

The bombshell Pennsylvania Grand Jury report just released shows that Cardinal Donald Wuerl, former Archbishop of Pittsburgh, was complicit in covering up the sexual abuse children by multiple priests, shuffling around priests who had abused children, and publicly praising priests he knew had abused children. The current Bishop of Pittsburgh was also implicated in these cover-ups.

I personally find it impossible to believe he did not know McCarrick was was a sexual predator.   Once again, they are innoculating themselves from any consequequences and protecting the networks of clerical homosexual sex addicts with apology tours and kangaroo panels to produce procedures that have existed for centuries.

Cardinal Burke cut through the subterfuge of nonsense with his laser itongue.

He is a cool cucumber, that one!

It’s the Pope’s job to remove predator bishops and their enablers.  It’s our job to make him do it by making it crystal clear that the glory days of appointing homosexuals and protecting them with smoke and mirrors have ended.

Please go to the petition link at Boston Catholic Insider above, sign the petition and pass it on to others with any resources you have available.

Then the dragon stood before the woman about to give birth, to devour her child.

Cardinal Wuerl has launched a website to defend himself against his malfeasance in the Pittsburgh.

Are you sitting down?

He thinks he did a good job.    The homosexuals and lesbians at the National Catholic Reporter must smell blood in the water, because they are coming to Wuerl's defense. 

Pressure is also mounting for the Holy Father to say something.   They must be sweating bullets to come up with reasons to defend his rationale that he doesn't make judgments about keeping a fresh supply of homosexual seminarians who will be used for the  orgies, as long as they are seeking God.

I listened to the PA DA's press conference yesterday.  What bothers me is the pattern  of grooming we keep seeing.  Marking a groomed child with a gold cross so other gay priests could take advantage of him.    The kiddie porn.  The bribery.

Once again, the age of the accusations seems to indicate they've stopped using children.   It was too risky, too criminal, too expensive.

But, the revelation dioceses continue to position older gay priests at seminaries, admits a supply of gay adult men, discourages and keeps out orthodox men offended by the debauchery, is too much to be a coincidence.   I can’t help thinking it’s supply and demand.

Fr. Heilman's article expresses the sentiments of the majority of priests ordained in the last 30 years.

I blamed you, bishops! It was your effete, weak compromising with the world "leadership" that emboldened all of the Fr. Don Murrays of the world to hate me — to hate us. You are the ones that guarded your gay, radical priests, while you chastised anyone who dared to actually love the rich treasury of our Catholic faith or challenged our people to strive to become saints.

I found the following comments at the Pilot to say everything that needs to be said.

The reality is that homosexual men experience desires that are themselves gravely wrong, and much of the time these desires arise from bad things done to them when they were boys, and some bad things that they themselves did too. It is a psychological and moral mine-field. The last place they ought to be is in a seminary with other young men. 

If you experience the desires but you do not affirm them -- if you do not call yourself "gay," you do not take that fateful step -- then you may not cause any harm in that environment. But if you do affirm them, and you allow them to form your affectual relationships with other men, then you are doing harm, and you are also probably putting yourself in harm's way to boot. 

That is the truth. People are assuming that homosexual men are Just Like Folks, only that their sexual desires go this way rather than that way. That is a colossal misunderstanding of the problem, and it does nothing to explain the host of behaviors that are a part of the syndrome. It is a way we have of ignoring someone else's suffering while patting ourselves on the back for doing so.... 

We are not all disordered in one way or another, if by that you mean that every person is tempted to do things that are unnatural. We really must get our terms straight here. Most sin involves the improper use of a faculty that is essentially good. But the temptation that a man feels to do sexual things with another man is not essentially good. It is bad, in its essence. 

The danger we are talking about here is completely avoidable and holds forth no possibility of gain. For example, it would be dangerous to send thirteen year old boys out into battle, as it is dangerous to send grown men into battle, but there is no good that the thirteen year old boys, as a group, can do -- it is a danger without any point to it. The same is true of homosexual men in that environment. I really must insist here that, since you are a woman and not a man, you cannot possibly imagine what kinds of things men do when women are not around, and what kinds of things homosexual men do -- and be assured that they are not going to brag about them to women. Their presence is a disrupting force, and they drive away good men. I am not speaking here of men who keep their arrant temptations to themselves, men who, for all that anyone would know besides their confessors, are as ordinary as the day is long. THOSE men have not affirmed the temptation, let alone given in to it. They may in fact outgrow the temptation; many men do outgrow it. I am speaking of men who "identify" that way.
A side question -- but one that is quite clear: Do we or do we not want to attract healthy, masculine young men to the priesthood? If we do, then we need to make sure that self-identifying homosexuals are not admitted. They do the Church, as a group, no good. They have done colossal harm already....

Ma'am, a lot of homosexual men seek out the priesthood as a haven.

I will repeat what I said. If you experience a desire for something unnatural, and this desire is strong and persistent, then something is wrong with you. It does not matter what the unnatural thing is. It may be, for example, a desire to torture animals, or a desire to eat things that are not food (dirt, excrement) -- whatever. The desire suggests that there is something wrong, because you are suffering a moral and psychological problem that is deep-seated.
May I suggest again that there are things about men that women are not going to know unless men tell them? That should not be controversial to say. If a man who experiences homosexual desire intends to be faithful, he does not say, except to his confessor, "I experience this desire." He keeps it to himself -- AND it forms no part of his affectual attitude toward other men. In his case you would not know that anything was wrong. Nor should you know.
But I guarantee you that a man who affirms the desire as a constitutive part of his very being, by saying, "I AM gay," will act upon that desire, and has in fact acted upon it. You will have to take the word of a man who knows what men are like, what they do, and how they act when women are not around. Please also keep in mind that ordinary men do not like to hang around gay men, for obvious reasons, and that the feeling is mutual. You can have a priesthood in which it is presumed that every man has a normal man's affections, or you can have a priesthood in which there are gay men who show it and who thus keep down the numbers of young men who go to the seminary -- and you will get all the problems that we have in fact gotten in the last forty years. You cannot have what the nature of men forbids, that normal men in any numbers will give up their chance for marriage and family so that they will be perceived as effeminate, because of the company they will be keeping. It will not happen, and it has not happened.
I want there to be ten times as many seminarians as there are now. Everyone really does know how you can have that, because everyone really does know what kinds of things appeal to young men, and what turns them away. Effeminacy turns them away.

This is the only thing I want to hear from the Pope. An admission of the real problem and the promise of a real solution. As I'm finishing up this post, I received word that Wuerl's website has mysteriously disappeared. I sincerely hope somebody got across to him - and the whole lot of them- how furious we are at their asshattery.
