ZERO TOLERANCE?

Having spent some time in Dallas during the bishops’ semi-annual meeting [June 12-15], I was able to confirm what many of us had already known: The same U.S. hierarchy that has ignored-----and even persecuted-----faithful Catholics has now made it clear that they have completely embraced the homosexual agenda. The majority of U.S. bishops are arguably anti-Catholic and may for the most part be homosexual themselves. This fact became crystal clear with the bishops’ refusal to even suggest homosexuality played any part in the sexual abuse scandal within the Church.
The bishops, apparently not having the benefit of common sense, had to vote on whether or not to adopt a “zero tolerance” policy for priests who rape children. Some bishops suggest that raping one child in the past should not keep the rapist from wearing a Roman Collar. What an insult to the holy priests! Regardless of what agreement is finally sent to Rome for approval, the bishops are free to do as they please within their own diocese.
Who will enforce the policy? Anyone of us could name countless abuses that have been perpetrated upon the faithful by bishops and priests without so much as an admonition from Rome. Where is the barque of Peter?
Speaking of Peter, on the evening of Friday, June 14, Bishop Fabian Bruskewitz spoke to a group of Catholic laymen; According to a news report, Bishop Bruskewitz referred to the bishops’ meeting in Dallas by stating: “this hapless bunch of bishops” had failed to address the roots of the crisis, and now courage and fighting tenacity from the laity was required. [He] cited the 14th Century St. Catherine of Siena, “an illiterate nun who is now a doctor of the Church,” as a model. “She was brave enough to tell the Pope off when he needed telling off,” said Bruskewitz. “She did her duty. We must too.”
Then Bishop Bruskewitz cited a letter that the medieval St. Bernard of Clairvaux wrote to a Pope of his day, warning the pontiff that if he [the Pope] was going to be sent to Hell, it would be because he failed to get rid of bad bishops:
“I did pass that letter on to [the current Pope],” Bruskewitz said, with a mischievous smile. [1]
The Pope is the only person with the authority to appoint or remove a bishop. His negligence cannot be denied, and Bishop Bruskewitz has said as much.
While the homosexual death-grip on the Church is only a symptom of a much bigger problem, just as it brought about the destruction of Sodom it now threatens to consume the Church by infecting Her priesthood.
As president of RCF since 1996, I have had the unfortunate opportunity to witness first-hand some of the horrific consequences of this vile vice that some of our bishops and priests now refer to as a “gift” from God. In order to fight this monster that preys upon our children and compromises our bishops, we must be willing to confront it head-on. To do this, we must identify and expose the perpetrators and those who enable them to inflict their damage. While in Dallas, RCF held a press conference to expose some of these offenders. We named two priests from the Dallas Diocese who had been part of St. Sebastian’s Angels, a network of homosexual priests who were operating on the internet.
The front page of the June 13 Washington Times contained an article that highlighted the two Dallas priests, Fr. Cliff Garner and Fr. Art Mallinson, along with a South African Bishop, Reginald Cawcutt, and noted descriptions of their sexual appetites and their hatred for the Holy Father and Cardinal Ratzinger. “I did share a room with one of our youth ministers here in Dallas-----and is he cute! He’s no Ricky Martin-----but he is Hispanic and we got along-----wonderfully! It was almost like we were meant to be together. I do have a very special place in my heart for those Latin blooded ones!” said Fr. Garner. Dallas Bishop Joseph A. Galante stated, “Cliff Garner is undergoing counseling. As long as his behavior is appropriate he will be all right.” [2]

(though I do agree that any sexual act with someone of the same gender is homosexual and not at all right)
