The Vatican is subject to UN norms   

For the first time in its boastful 2,000 years of 266 Popes monocracy, the Vatican is condemned by the United Nations.  The UN is the highest (secular) representative of all nations and humanity. Read our related article, UN condemns Vatican for crimes against children http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2014/02/un-condemns-vatican-for-crimes-against.html   At last,  the Popes and the Vatican now have to bow down before secular laws of justice, have to report and reply in English (not in Latin its hogwash official language), as they face cross-examination by a secular bench at the UN -- where the Holy Trinity, Blessed Virgin, St. Peter, sacraments, relics, the Crucifix, giant statues of saints such as the St. Joseph Oratory in Montreal (read our related article here http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/11/oratory-of-saintjoseph-pedophile.html , the Rosary, most of all, the sorcery cloning of Christ’s flesh in the Eucharist are all irrelevant, immaterial and cannot absolve the Vatican, its Popes, Cardinal, Bishops and thousands of bestial Catholic priests for their crimes against children in the 20^th century. 

This time, in the 21^st century, the Emperor’s Clothes spectacle of the Jesuit Pope-in-white from his Eucharistic Merlin sorcery throne at St. Peter’s Square and his throngs of loud Francis-maniacs can neither suppress nor silence the UN secular voice of justice, the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child that represent humanity’s children.  Those countless children victims - to ease their sufferings - are still waiting to see tangible justice - the punishment of Popes, Cardinals, Bishops and JP2 Army pedophile priests who all colluded together in their “code of silence” to make them suffer for decades. The UN condemnation on the Vatican is timely as the canonization of John Paul II approaches and his name will resound as “saint” that will rub incessant salt on victims’ wounds from the crimes of Biblical Proportion which the JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army he (and Benedict XVI- RATzinger) covered-up and left behind http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2011/12/eucharist-feeds-dysfunction.html. It’s the one-year anniversary of Benedict XVI’s announcement of his resignation on February 11, 2013. Benedict XVI was a coward and hypocrite who run out of deceitful papal words as he condemned homosexuals but simultaneously condoned the Gay Lobby orgies with Rome’s male prostitutes within the sacred walls in the Vatican, read here http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/02/vatican-last-tsar-benedict-xvi-resigns_13.html

The Cross as license and banner for Vatican Crimes   

For 2,000 years, the Vatican has used - the Cross of Christ as its Pope’s banner and the Eucharist magical cloning of Christ’s flesh-and-blood as its greatest power and theological license - to justify its condemnation on other religions, innovators and scientists, its deceptions and lies, its torture and killing of men and women, its pillage and oppression of countries, i.e. the Crusades, persecution and burning women and witches, decapitation of heretics and Jesuits, scam sales of Plenary Indulgences to build St. Peter’s Basilica, its partnership with Mussolini and the Nazis, its Vatican Concordats that usurp billions of dollars in many countries up to now, and in the latter part of the 20^th century the ‘plague of pedophile priests’ who sodomized tens of thousands of victims mostly little boys (and little girls) in Vatican Catholic churches worldwide.

Christ inspires us to tell the world about the hoax of the Eucharist –that Popes and priests cannot clone an ant or a cat and therefore cannot clone Christ either and that He is fed up with the Vatican’s abuse of His Name and that the Pope is a con-Christ and con-artist who is not his Vicar but he’s rather the Devil in White Emperor’s Clothes, read the 10 reasons to abolish the papacy here http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2014/02/un-condemns-vatican-for-crimes-against.html

POPE FRANCIS AND the CROSS as HIS GREATEST WEAPON FOR VATICAN DECEITS, POPE CRIMES AND VATICAN EVILS

STUPID CATHOLICS must STOP giving money and FEEDING THE VATICAN MAMMON BEAST and  reflect and open their eyes that in the 20^th century, what  mankind has seen is the bestial JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army and the painstaking time of cloning of Dolly the Sheep that prove Pope Francis and priests are void of powers of instant cloning Christ and void of control of Heaven’s real estate…which leads us to the MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION -- who will benefit and inherit all those billions of dollars and trillions of dollars real estate from 2,000 years of looted wealth hidden - in secret Vatican Swiss Banks and 175 countries oppressed by the Vatican Concordats worldwide???

AP news confirmed our article on the Vatican Bank’s frenzied closure of thousands of accounts and AP reports that this time it involves the accounts of hundreds of widows and pensioners being closed down in haste without even their consents – but which the Vatican say was a glitz, read the compilation of latest news with our comments highlighted in yellow below.  Read also our related article - Vatican Bank closes thousand accounts/criminal transactions BURNT to leave no trail of crimes further/future investigations...drowned by loud Francis-maniacs at St. Peter’s Square  http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/10/vatican-bank-closes-thousand.html

1-MINUTE black magic of the cloning of Christ by sinful Vatican pope and priests

Pope Francis, all Popes, Cardinals, Bishops and priests cannot clone cats and dogs and therefore they cannot clone Christ either.  

Catholic Culture

The money-spinning Vatican Pied Pipers who usually toot “feel-good” headlines to cover-up Vatican Evils are suddenly turning into ruthless Vatican Vipers attacking the UN and its respected members of the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child and the countries where they came from - insulting them as People who live in glass houses : “The UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, which has instructed the Vatican on proper treatment of children, includes representatives from Ghana, Ethiopia, Malaysia, Russia, and Sri Lanka. Would you rather have your child raised at the Vatican or in one of those countries? This arrogant Vatican viper statement comes from “Catholic Culture” a website of Opus Dei who coined so many “cultures” through its puppet Pope John Paul II, such as “culture of life” to fight abortion, “culture of death” to fight euthanasia, “culture of love” to fight homosexuality, etc.  But what they calculatedly and deliberately concealed was the “culture of pedophile priests” of the JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army that has been captivating the world’s attention, and at last, the UN condemnation on the Vatican. Read our related article UN condemns Vatican for its crimes against children   http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2014/02/un-condemns-vatican-for-crimes-against.html 

What you sow is what you reap and with so many “Catholic cultures” fantasised by Vatican rookie Opus Dei in their obsession to be the holiest controller of the Holy See (with their robotic Angelus and Rosary), what the Vatican is now reaping is the “culture of pedophile priests”  of the JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army.  Jesus said that ‘what is hidden shall be revealed’ and after 27 years of John Paul II papacy and 7 years of Benedict XVI-RATzinger papacy both controlled by Opus Dei.

What all that “Vatican Catholic cultures” concocted by the Opus Dei now reveal are the concealed Catholic culture of deceits and culture of failures:  the deceits and failure of the Eucharist where all popes and priests cannot clone an ant or a cat and therefore cannot clone Christ’s flesh-and-blood either, the Failure of the Sacraments, the deceits and failure of the Rosary, http://jp2m.blogspot.ca/  the deceits and failure of the Vatican Bank, most of all, the deceits and failure of dictatorial Popes especially John Paul II and Benedict XVI and their Cardinals and Bishops and Papal Nuncios who covered-up the JP2 Army of thousands of pedophile priests and betrayed countless children for decades, read our related article http://jp2m.blogspot.ca/2006/08/john-paul-ii-pope-of-sodomy.html. 

But 1.2 billion Catholics are stupid! as the National Secular Society in the UK noted, “After the drubbing over child abuse that the Catholic Church (in its guise as the "Holy See") got at the United Nations in Geneva earlier this month, you would think that Catholics around the world would be horrified and angry.

But they aren't. There was little evidence of a widespread furious reaction to the arrogance and dissembling that Vatican representatives exhibited when confronted with crimes so enormous in their reach and depravity that they're almost incomprehensible….

Then a cleric was caught red handed in Rome trying to launder millions of pounds in "false donations" through the Vatican bank.

In the USA, the Archdiocese of Chicago has released thousands of pages of documents that reveal how its hierarchy routinely covered up child sex abuse and shuffled abusing priests from one diocese to another. The scale of it beggars the imagination

But no one seems to want to know about it. Catholics are, reportedly, rushing back to church, pouring money into its coffers again and feeling generally quite good about things now that they've got Pope Francis.”

Vatican Vipers

Vatican Vipers are ferocious like their “Holy Fathers of Lies” the arrogant despotic Popes, read our article, John Paul II the Holy Father of Lies http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/11/john-paul-ii-holy-father-of-lies.html

Vatican Vipers are controlled by the Vatican Mammon Beast and therefore they must defend their Vatican Boss at all cost. Just to show how stupid Americans are for not having compassion for their fellow American children sodomized by bestial Vatican priests 

:

Vatican Vipers are ruthless attack dogs barking foul deceits against the UN -- after the UN released its scathing condemnation on the Holy See’s decades-long epidemic of child sex abuse by Catholic clerics worldwide named aptly as JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army for the Pope who reigned for 27 years but at the height of his papal power did nothing to save and protect children. 

Victims in USA - Attackers - Responsible Leaders

WTC & 9/11 attacks - 3,000 victims - 19 Muslims - Osama bin Laden

JP2 Army – 100,000 victims+ - 6,100+ pedophile priests - John Paul II & Benedict XVI & Opus Dei, the new Vatican Trinity

One of the deceitful Vatican Vipers is the Wall Street Journal that headlined The U.N. Assault on the Catholic Church, read our comments and highlights in the news updates below.

The Legion of Christ’s now EWTN newspaper, National Catholic Register, in its article  U.N. Committee to Vatican: Change Church Teaching  accuses the “20-year history of U.N. bureaucrats trying to coerce member states into accepting secularist values… such as wider access to birth control, permissive abortion laws and the legalization of same-sex “marriages.” Read our compilation of Vatican Vipers articles below with our bold emphasis and comments highlighted in yellow.  National Catholic Register is deceitful because it is the Vatican imposing Catholicism in countries and its Vatican Concordats usurp billions of dollars from 175 countries, read our related article, Abolition of Vatican Concordat in Dominican Republic and bring pedophile Papal Nuncio and other pedophile Polish priests to justice http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/10/abolish-vatican-concordat-in-dominican.html

Jesuit savvy Vatican Vipers

In the news compilation below, we put our comments and highlights in yellow within the articles of Vatican Vipers especially Jesuit Frederico Lombardi’s response to the UN.  Lombardi deceitfully, as a typical garrulous Jesuit, brainwash readers into falling into clever subtle Jesuit traps of Vatican Holy Shit agenda  …the Devil’s Bowels smell like roses in the Vatican indeed…as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be in the Vatican Titanic sunken deep in the ocean of moral bankruptcy!  Lombardi deceitfully make it sound that -- it is the UN that wants the Vatican membership at the UN – and that the UN Committee pre-wrote its statements BEFORE -- they met in person the Vatican delegation because they kowtowed to victims’ pressure and didn’t take into consideration Vatican up-to-date reports!  See his article below in the news update with our yellow highlights and comments.

The media must help abolish the title “father” from priests, read why John Paul II the Holy Father of Lies! Cardinal Dziwisz book: “JPII knew nothing” about bestial pedophile priest Fr. Maciel is Vatican Titanic Deceits http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/11/john-paul-ii-holy-father-of-lies.html

 Hence we also include here an article on the “Failure of the Sacraments” because the Eucharist is the crux of power of the Vatican Mammon Beast.  The UN Report also touched on issues such as abortion and an important must-read book Letter to a Christian Nation explains in detail why abortion is morally and scientifically right.  Coincidently, in Spain today, there are demonstrations against the government’s ban on abortion, which in no doubt is part of the Vatican Concordats, just as the Vatican also controls the Dominican Republic and prohibits abortion, read more why women says, “No Rosaries in our ovaries”   in Abolition of Vatican Concordat in Dominican Republic and bring pedophile Papal Nuncio and other pedophile Polish priests to justice http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/10/abolish-vatican-concordat-in-dominican.html

The UN must abolish the Vatican as a “country” because it’s time to free mankind of this Devilish Merlin sorcery of Christ’s flesh-and-blood in the Eucharist where these mortal and immoral men cannot clone an ant and therefore they cannot clone the Son of God either.  The Eucharist transubstantiation is as false as the Vatican’s medieval dogma that the Sun rotated around the Earth and their condemnation of Galileo is also hammered on today’s “heretics” who refuse to believe in the sacraments.  Read our latest article where we expose that Jesus never instituted the sacrament of baptism because He never baptized anyone, not His apostles, not His followers even when there’s lots of water in the Sea of Galilee.  Read more in our article: Women.

The Opus Dei are rookies Vatican handlers and so they had to hire the 500-year old Jesuits to professionally handle Vatican Deceits which the Jesuits started and propagated almost 500 years ago. Lombardi is the Jesuit Pope’s spokesperson and we highlight in yellow our comments on his subtle snake attacks against the UN, see compilation of Vatican Vipers articles against the UN and those pro-UN articles, with our bold emphases and yellow highlights in the news update below.

Letter to a Christian Nation (the USA)

All Catholics must read the book, Letter to a Christian Nation (America) to learn why abortion is morally right via scientific proofs.   The Vatican is wrong about abortion as it was wrong about the earth as the center of the universe and hence it condemned Galileo.

The Cross as Vatican banner of Pope Crimes and Vatican Evils

The Vatican has gotten away with its Pope crimes against humanity century after century by using the Pope as the “Vicar of Christ” and the bloody Cross of Christ as its banner and theological license to kill or condemn men, women and countries.  But this time, its Pope Crimes and Vatican Evils targeted the most vulnerable member of mankind, little boys and girls, and this time, it isn’t getting a free pass because if there is any sinner Christ condemned with a millstone, it was the “one who caused a child to sin” – the pedophile!   Hence our blog on the John Paul II Millstone – see our blog http://jp2m.blogspot.ca/   because for 27 years he caused tens of thousands of children to sin with pedophile priests as he said nothing and did nothing to stop them – not even the 80 pedophile priests in nearby Boston when he went to Toronto for his last narcissistic World Youth Day in 2002.  Instead he was busy writing the Luminous Mysteries of the Rosary to justify the fictitious Sacraments. Jesus never baptized anyone, not even his apostles.  He never baptized the people he healed as he visited their homes, walked in the streets with them and fished with them, and there was lots of water in the Sea of Galilee, read more in our related article, Women.

The Vatican killed thousands of Muslims in Jerusalem wiping out the entire city population where “blood was up to their knees” as the Vatican Crusaders walked to celebrate their victory.  Even the second most venerated pilgrimage after the Vatican, Compostello in Spain is littered with skulls of Muslims chopped by the sword of its famous venerated Saint James who beheaded every and all Muslim in sight.  During the Medieval Ages, the Vatican burned women suspected of witchcraft and its most famous victim, Joan of Arc became its saint to pacify stupid Catholic believers in France. 

 During the 100 years Jesuit Suppression, at the stroke of the Pope’s pen, the Society of Jesus was abolished and all Jesuits worldwide were tortured and decapitated and then displayed in public squares with their cut-open stomachs and large intestines wide open fresh, or they were sent to sea to die – with no country to receive them because the Pope controlled all countries then.  It was at the mercy of Russia Empress Catherine the Great who took some in to teach at her court that the Jesuits survived.  She was featured at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games at Sochi, Russia where the President of the International Olympic Committee said: It is possible to live under roof in tolerance and harmony. But it is impossible to live in tolerance in the Vatican fake country because the Pope excommunicate anyone who criticise him or defend homosexuals, read our related article.

Rebuttals against Vatican Vipers

Vatican Viper Phil Lawler of ‘Catholic Culture’ went as far as to attack the UN members and the countries they came from.  John Paul II coined a lot of “culture” Vatican shit: culture of life, culture of love, etc, but he proved that Theology and the John Paul II are heartless and together they made pedophile priest Father Marcial Maciel thrive http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/11/john-paul-ii-holy-father-of-lies.html.   So every time you see Catholic “culture” somewhere, you can be sure they have come from the same Vatican Holy Shit of John Paul II and Opus Dei.

Catholic Culture’s website Phil Lawler asked: “The UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, which has instructed the Vatican on proper treatment of children, includes representatives from Ghana, Ethiopia, Malaysia, Russia, and Sri Lanka. Would you rather have your child raised at the Vatican or in one of those countries? The UN committee, which criticized the Vatican for discrimination against girls, includes members from Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, and Egypt. How well are girls treated in those countries?” Our response:  We have news for Catholic Culture who are apparently ignorant of the Vatican ritual of killing a child in order to get a promotion inside the Vatican Curia – so count how many children has been sacrificed so those 800 Gay Lobby Prelates can be promoted at the Vatican Curia.  Read our latest article of Cardinal Josef Ratzinger killing a child to drink his blood here http://pope-ratz.blogspot.ca/

The "odious" sacrament

The Failure of the Sacraments

There’s an elephant quietly sitting in the nave that everyone on all sides of the clergy sex abuse crisis have been diligently ignoring, even the victims themselves. No clergy or even would-be reformers have really remarked on it yet, although it should be more obvious with each and every sad story. More importantly, it is a troubling issue that touches on the very heart and soul of Catholicism.

The monstrous truth is simply this: what the clergy sex abuse crisis clearly demonstrates is that the sacramental system has failed.

This is not just a case of hierarchical reneging of responsibility. There’s more to this than some bad apples. This is nothing that a few reforms can fix, some screening of seminarians or more pastoral responses by bishops. It is nothing less than a fundamental challenge to the entire Catholic Church, and it shows that the spiritual principles the whole structure is supposedly based on simply do not work.

Think about it. The offenders here are Roman Catholic priests, highly trained men. But unlike other professionals, these men are supposedly set apart and dedicated to lives of the spirit. They claim to have the power to forgive sins and make God appear.

They not only administer the sacraments to others, but also receive them themselves daily. That means, among other things, frequent confession to other priests. Moreover, many of these men belong to religious orders or are otherwise under close spiritual direction. They are supposed to confide everything to their confessors and superiors and to obey them unquestioningly.

So what went wrong? When an abusive priest goes to confession, does he start, “Bless me, father, for I have sinned: I buggered an altar boy three times this week”? And does the confessor tell him to say 3 Our Fathers and 4 Hail Marys and not to do it again?

According to their own theory, confessors have the power to forgive sins, but also to refuse to do so if sorrow is insufficient. Moreover, they are to appoint penances – if they wish, they can require satisfaction or significant signs of reform from the penitent before absolution. Some sins – such as solicitation for sex in the confessional – are even deemed so serious that only higher prelates, sometimes only the Pope or his appointed delegate can forgive them.

Yet the abusers continue to abuse. So are the sexually active priests lying to their confessors? This would mean that not only do the perpetrating priests remain in a state of mortal sin and are automatically excommunicated, they perform the sacraments in that state which is itself a grave sacrilege.

Or, even worse, are all the abusive priests linked? Do they only go to confession to like-minded perps who will understand? Is there then an organized network of sexually perpetrating priests, all busily enabling each other? This adds collusion and conspiracy to the sin and would indicate that the very structure itself is rotten to the core.

The evidence available suggests that perhaps both scenarios are true to varying degrees in different situations. Either way, however, the result is much the same.

The sacraments are meant to unite believers with Christ. Not just to remove the accumulations of sin like the weekly laundry, but to gradually improve the recipient. They are intended to sanctify and uplift the faithful, increase devotion to God, charity to fellow humans, and moral stamina in the face of evil.

If the sacraments actually worked like this, wouldn’t we hear ennobling stories of clerical reform, of some molester inspired to truly repent and devote himself to the cause? But rather, the stories are depressingly the same, of priests caught time and again, transferred, treated, and now finally, laicized often against their will, with no regret or even acknowledgement of their evil.

What this means, each person must decide in their own conscience. But perhaps the fall off in confessions over the years itself tells the story. Why should anyone, lay or not, risk a ritual that seems so impotent in promoting reform and may, instead of granting grace, actually expose them to greater human wickedness?

Vatican spokesman gives detailed critique of UN committee report

VATICAN CITY
Catholic Culture  (Owned and operated by Opus Dei, read our comments above)
In a sharply worded and detailed response to UN committee’s critical report on the Vatican’s response to sexual abuse, the Vatican’s chief spokesman has said that the committee’s recommendations “seem to go beyond it competencies and to interfere in the very doctrinal and moral positions of the Catholic Church.”
Father Federico Lombardi, the director of the Vatican press office, released a lengthy response to the report by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child on February 7. In his 3-page statement charged that committee had neglected to pay attention to information submitted by the Vatican, relying instead on reports from groups critical of the Church. The Vatican spokesman strongly suggested that the report had been drafted in advance, without waiting for the Vatican’s own report.

Most important, Father Lombardi charged, the UN committee had overstepped its jurisdiction to attack the Church’s moral teaching. He said that “the Committee’s comments in several directions seem to go beyond its powers and to interfere in the very moral and doctrinal positions of the Catholic Church, giving indications involving moral evaluations of contraception, or abortion, or education in families, or the vision of human sexuality, in light of own ideological vision of sexuality itself.”

Fr Lombardi SJ: Note on children's rights Committee findings

VATICAN CITY
Vatican Radio
[with audio]
(Vatican Radio) The Director of the Press Office of the Holy See, Fr. Federico Lombardi, SJ, has issued a Note to Vatican Radio (of which he is Director-General) regarding the United Nations, the Holy See, and the Committee on the Rights of the Child, in the wake of the Committee’s Concluding Observations on the reviewed Reports of the Holy See (and five member states that are also parties to the convention).
Fr. Lombardi SJ writes, “It is impossible not to see that the final recommendations of the Committee appear to present – according to the judgment of those, who followed closely the process that preceded them – serious limits,” noting in particular the Observations’ conspicuous lack of understanding of the specific nature of the Holy See – a lack he describes as, “particularly grave.”

The most serious issue with the Observations is found in the Committee's apparent overstepping of its own purview. "The observations of the Committee," writes Fr. Lombardi, "seem to go beyond its competencies, and to interfere in the very doctrinal and moral positions of the Catholic Church," specifically regarding abortion, contraception, family education and other related areas.

Fr. Lombardi SJ stresses that, while the Holy See has been subjected to “unjustly harmful” media attention, it is also true and at least equally important to recognize that the Committee itself has received “serious and well-founded” criticism. He goes on to underline that, while the United Nations organization as such is not responsible for the shortcomings of the Committee, public opinion has assigned the organization the brunt of negative fallout from the Committee’s conduct.

The three-page Note also reviews in detail the Holy See’s history of support for the work of the United Nations, as well as the history of the Holy See’s adherence to and participation in the Convention on the Right s of the Child (the Holy See was one of the earliest adherents to the Convention).

 

Vatican spokesman on UN report: “One is entitled to amazement”

VATICAN CITY
Catholic World Report

By Catherine Harmon
After the release of a report from the United Nations’ Committee on the Rights of the Child earlier this week that roundly criticized the Vatican’s response to clerical sex abuse worldwide, the Vatican’s spokesman today issued some “comments and clarifications” about the Holy See’s position on the report.
The head of the Vatican Press Office, Father Federico Lombardi, SJ, reiterated the Vatican’s commitment to the UN’s Convention on the Rights of the Child, which the Committee on the Rights of the Child was established to implement: “The Holy See, therefore, as the Holy See’s Secretary of State, Archbishop Pietro Parolin has said, continues its efforts to implement the Convention and to maintain an open, constructive and engaged dialogue with the organs contained therein.”
Lombardi continues:
At the same time, one cannot fail to see that the latest recommendations issued by the Committee appear to present – in the opinion of those who have followed well the process that preceded them – grave limitations.

 

Fr Lombardi: Note on UN, Holy See, Child Rights Committee

(Vatican Radio) Please find, below, Vatican Radio's translation of the full text of Fr Federico Lombardi, SJ's Note containing some punctualizations on the UN, the Holy See and the Committee on the Rights of the Child.
**
After the large number of articles and comments that followed the publication of the recommendations of the audit Committee of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, it seems useful to make a few comments and clarifications.

It is not appropriate to speak of confrontation “between the UN and the Vatican”. The United Nations is a reality that is very important to humanity today.  (COMMENT: What a Jesuit Devil:  Lombardi starts with this statement but later in his deceitful note - ends up mocking the UN even accusing them of pre-writing their condemnation on the Holy See BEFORE they met with the Vatican Panel)

The Holy See has always provided strong moral support to the United Nations as a meeting place among all the nations, to foster peace in the world and the growth of the community of peoples in harmony, mutual respect and mutual enrichment. Countless documents and addresses of the Holy See at [the UN’s] highest levels and the intense participation of the Holy See’s representatives in the activities of many UN bodies attest to this.(COMMENT:  This is Vatican LIE – The Holy See is there to CONTROL the United Nations, the wealth of countries and causes wars to happen so that it can make money in the manufacture of weapons – while the Pope preaches peace.  The Holy See does not provide strong moral support to the UN but controls the morals of diplomats and brainwash them on how to wield power over peoples – just like the Vatican controls Catholics minds and hearts through the fictitious sacraments of Eucharist where they claim to clone Christ’s = God’s flesh-and-blood even they cannot clone cats and dogs – and therefore mankind has to kowtow to the Pope and priests and Pala Nuncios because they can bring back Christ to life in the Evil Eucharist Sorcery!)

The highest authorities of the UN have ever been aware of the importance of the moral and religious support of the Holy See for the growth of the community of nations: so they invited Popes to visit the organization and direct their words to the General Assembly. In the footsteps of Paul VI, John Paul II (twice) and Benedict XVI have done so. In short, the United Nations, at the highest levels, appreciate and desire the support of the Holy See and positive dialogue with it. So does the Holy See, for the good of the human family. This is the perspective in which the present questions ought to be raised. (COMMENT:  This is Vatican Bullshit.  The Holy See is imposing itself in the United Nations because the Vatican controls wolrd economy via SECERT Vatican Swiss Banks and countries are at the mercy of the Vatican Concordats.  It is time to cut the head of the Vatican Mammon Beast. -- It is time the UN annul the membership of the Holy See as a 2nation” because it is only an exclusive men’s club of dictatorial popes and the Vatican Concordats usurp billion of dollars from countries to support 800 prelates, read more our related article  Abolition of Vatican Concordat in Dominican Republic and bring pedophile Papal Nuncio and other pedophile Polish priests to justice http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/10/abolish-vatican-concordat-in-dominican.html

International Conventions promoted by the United Nations are one of the ways in which the international community seeks to promote the dynamic of the search for peace and the promotion of the rights of the human person in specific fields. States are free to join. The Holy See/Vatican City State has adhered to those it considers most important in the light of its activities and its mission. (It should be noted that adherence to a Convention entails a commitment to participation, reports, etc. , which require staff and resources – for which reason the Holy See must choose [to adhere to] a limited number of Conventions, commensurate with its possibilities for participation). Among these, in a timely manner, the Holy See joined – among the first in the world – the Convention on the Rights of the Child, in the light of the great work done in this field, in many different forms ( educational, charitable , etc. . ) and for so long, by the Catholic community in the world, and in light of the Magisterium of the Church in this area, inspired by the behavior of Jesus described in the Gospels.  (COMMENT:  What a bunch of bullshit!  The Vatican is not inspired by the behavior of Christ at all.  The Vatican is inspired by the greed and deceptions of Satan the Father of lies, who comes to steal, kill as Jesus said.

Naturally, the operations of the UN are vast and complex, and like any large organization – and precisely because of its international and as far as possible universal nature – embraces very different persons, positions and voices. It is therefore no wonder that in the vast world of the UN different visions shall encounter and even collide with each other. Therefore, in order that the overall result be positive, a great willingness to be open to dialogue is needed, along with attentive respect for essential rules and procedures, and in preparing activities.  (COMMENT: This is Jesuit deception-in-action how Jesuits can twist and turn words around to cover-up Pope Crimes and Vatican Evils for centuries.  Jesuit Lombardi is giving a loquacious lecture to the UN and the world and eventually, brainwashing readers to fall into Vatican agenda.  That is why Jesuits are Masters of Deceits for almost 500 years helping the Pope and feeding the Vatican Mammon Beast , read our article:  Pope Francis TOP 10 DECEITS http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2013/03/pope-francis-top-10-vatican-deceits_30.html

 

Cardinal Schönborn: Pope Francis has already changed church (HOGWASH, Vatican Pied Piper brainwashing tactics))

ROME
National Catholic Reporter
Christa Pongratz-Lippitt | Feb. 7, 2014
"It is fascinating to see how Pope Francis is encouraging, reviving and renewing the church. Our meeting with him was an excellent lesson on how to live the Gospel today," Cardinal Christoph Schönborn of Vienna said after a 90-minute audience with the pope during the Austrian bishops' "ad limina" visit to the Vatican in the last week of January.
The Austrian bishops took the results of the recent Vatican questionnaire to Rome with them. Responses showed that 95 percent of those who had filled out the questionnaire in Austria were in favor of allowing divorced and remarried Catholics to receive the sacraments.
The subject of family relationships today and how the church should deal with them played an important role at the Jan. 30 meeting with the pope, Schönborn said. "We cannot speak about people without speaking about families," Francis said, explaining that was why the subject of the coming Synod of Bishops in October had been altered from bioethics to the family.

Anti-Church wave  (COMMENT:  The Catholic Vatican Vipers are copying the Jewish line of anti-Semitism.

For the last several months the Polish mass media have been flooded with a shockingly high wave of anti-Church articles. In the post-communist Przeglad, 5 October 2004, it was even written about the possibility of 'a new war' between the Left and the Church. One could create a truly long 'White Book' about the fight with the Church only on the basis of the 'literary output' in mass media in the last half year. You could hardly see such a huge and concentrated amount of anti-Church articles in Poland in this relatively short period after the famous Gomulka's smear campaign had been launched in 1966 on the occasion of the Millennium. (One should remember that in Gomulka times there were no periodicals, which would publish as many aggressive and lousy anti-Church articles as in today's Fakty i Mity as well as Urban's Nie.) What is the reason of this sudden and violent anti-Church explosion in mass media after so many years of pretending that the post-communists wanted a lasting agreement with the Church, and after their claims that they renounced all anti-Church and anti-religious phobias once for all? The answer is all too simple. The post-communists feel more and more isolated from the society when new political affairs and embarrassments have rapidly been revealed. And the polling squaring is at hand. Being more and more panic-stricken the post-communists decided to resort to the method they had tested long ago - to look for substitute subjects in order to divert people maximally from their pitiful affairs and deviousness.

 

VATICAN CITY
Gazzetta del Sud
Vatican City, February 7 - This week's report by the United Nations Committee for the Rights of the Child shows "grave limits" in a misunderstanding "of the specific nature of the Holy See", Spokesman Father Federico Lombardi said Friday, accusing the committee of prejudice while insisting relations with the UN as a whole were still sound. On Wednesday the Committee issued a wide-ranging report that excoriated the Vatican for adopting policies that it said allowed sexual abuse of tens of thousands of children by clergymen and demanded immediate action. Lombardi said the Vatican was entitled to be "baffled" by the Geneva-based committee's failure to understand the makeup of the Church, not just as a religious institution but as a juridical entity. Critics of the report argue it asks too much of the Holy See, which despite being the central government of the international Church is nevertheless incapable of directly overseeing every local parish that caters to the world's more than one billion Catholics. For instance, it would be impossible, critics add, to track spending on children in Catholic institutions worldwide, or to create an international monitoring body to be made accessible to all children in all the Church's hundreds of thousands of educational institutions, as the report urges it to do.

Sister Mary Ann Walsh  (A nun Vatican Piped Piper and Vatican Viper)
Sexual abuse of a minor is a sin and a crime and no organization can become complacent about addressing it. The Catholic Church has certainly done more than any other international organization to face the problem and it will continue to lead in doing so.
In the United States, the number of cases of sexual abuse of minors by clergy has plummeted. This is in no small part due to the fact that millions of Catholic children have been instructed on safe environments and tens of thousands of adults who work with them in the Church have gone through background checks and safe environment education. In 2012, for example, dioceses and religious institutes conducted background checks on 99 percent of clerics, 97 percent of educators, 95 percent of employees, and 96 percent of volunteers. Every diocese has a victim assistance coordinator who assists those who have been abused and a safe environment coordinator who works to prevent abuse from occurring again.
The Vatican also has shown resolve in addressing the issue. Pope John Paul II changed the age of maturity in Church law so more abuse cases could be prosecuted. Pope Benedict called on every bishops'conference in the world to develop policies. Pope Francis recently announced a commission to strengthen the Church's handling of sexual abuse.  (COMMENT:  All empty papal gestures.  John Paul II NEVER prosecuted any pedophile priests – he never wanted to meet one of the first publicized 80 pedophile priests in Boston whom Cardinal Bernard Law transferred from one parish to another.  When we forced Law to resign John Paul II took him to Rome – hence he is one of his evil Achilles Heel, read more here  http://jp2m.blogspot.ca/2011/04/narcissism-and-grandiosity-of-john-paul.html)

Child Rights Panel Defends Children and Girls—Throws Down Gauntlet to Holy See

UNITED STATES
RH Reality Check

by Angela Bonavoglia
February 6, 2014

In a scathing report released Wednesday on the Holy See’s adherence to the principles of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, an aggressive United Nations committee knocked the Holy See off the high ground.

Stunning in its frankness and scope, the report began with the unequivocal rejection of the Holy See’s specious claim that while the Vatican City has a hallowed place in the international community (for example, as a non-member permanent observer at the UN), it is utterly impotent over the workings of the millions of institutions worldwide operating in the Catholic Church’s name.

Recognizing that subordinates of Catholic religious orders are, by canon law, “bound by obedience to the Pope,” the committee rejected the Holy See’s claim of impotence. By ratifying the convention, the committee contended, the Holy See committed itself to implementing the convention “not only on the territory of the Vatican City State but also as the supreme power of the Catholic Church through individuals and institutions placed under its authority.”

The report left no doubt about the committee’s lack of faith in the Holy See’s efforts so far to come to terms with the decades-long epidemic of child sex abuse by Catholic clerics worldwide. “The Holy See has not acknowledged the extent of the crimes committed, has not taken the necessary measures to address cases of child sexual abuse and to protect children, and has adopted policies and practices which have led to the continuation of the abuse by and the impunity of the perpetrators,” wrote the committee.

Papal spokesman claims UN panel “gave more credence to NGOs” over church officials. This is simply not true.
[Associated Press]
The UN panel gave credence to decades of well documented horrific crimes and cover ups. Catholic officials can’t spin or promise their way out of the crisis. Catholic officials should not be surprised when well educated objective adults judge them on consistent self serving actions, and not on professed intentions to do better in the future.
The Vatican’s belligerence is deeply disappointing. Listening and learning, not ducking and dodging, can help protect children. People should ask themselves “who do I believe an impressive impartial panel of experts with an unblemished track record, or a handful of powerful complicit clerics with an extraordinarily blemished track record?”
Pope Francis should instruct prelates to call off attack dogs and study the full UN panel report and start taking tangible abuse prevention steps. This is the only way the church hierarchy will be able to start safeguarding children and restoring its justifiably tattered reputation.

The Pope and Mussolini

The Secret History of Pius XI and the Rise of Fascism in Europe

By David I. Kertzer
(Penguin; 549 pages; $32)

As Benito Mussolini consolidated power in the 1930s, forging alliances with Hitler's Germany and invading Ethiopia in a vainglorious bid for a new Roman Empire, the only consolation for Italians might have been that God was on their side.

This was anything but the case, writes David I. Kertzer, a Brown professor, in his captivating study of the uneasy bond between Pope Pius XI and Il Duce. Each man mistrusted the other, but the reclusive pope feared the march of communism, Protestantism and anything modern. Mussolini's roots were in strident anticlericalism, yet church support in Catholic Italy was crucial for tightening his grip.

In exchange for fiery anticommunism and crucial backing of Vatican policy goals, Italian Fascism got a pass from a silent church on its political monopoly.

Long before the war with Britain and France started in 1939 (when Pius XI died), democracy in Italy was lost, along with many lives, with far more to come. If politics is about holding one's nose while interests are served, the stench here is overpowering. You won't learn about steel production or railroad strikes from Kertzer, but you will learn what men in power did and failed to do.

The story begins in 1922, when Italy was stumbling in the wake of World War I's devastation. Benito Mussolini, once an anti-Catholic socialist (named for the Church-hating Benito Juarez), leveraged nationalism into mass thuggery and found that he needed the acquiescence of the Catholic Church to get Italians' approval.

In that same year, cardinals in Rome elected an improbable next pope, Achille Ratti, son of a silk factory manager, a librarian for most of his priesthood. Ratti's lifelong hobby was hiking in the mountains, hence the nickname whispered at the Vatican, "the mountaineer."

This reclusive loner chosen to lead millions of Catholics at a moment of tremendous political, technological and sexual upheaval looked at the threats facing the traditional church and dug in his heels. He also looked toward the brash, coarse Mussolini. The Vicar of Christ found an unlikely enforcer in the man with a libido that Silvio Berlusconi might envy, plus a gaggle of illegitimate children.

The Vatican looked the other way when Mussolini (whose children weren't baptized then) had henchmen murder rivals and terrorize priests. The Vatican and the Italian government did finally recognize each other diplomatically during Pius XI's papacy, an official achievement that helped Mussolini look like a statesman, but some details of their bond mimic pageantry from bad operettas - the Vatican sought a ban on women's gymnastics (too erotic), and the handshake was also banned in Italy, in favor of the Fascist straight-arm salute. King Victor Emmanuel III, barely 5 feet tall, was Il Duce's walking rubber stamp.

The pope's fears went beyond communism and into the realm of paranoia - or was it just his unease with the modern world? Besides bathing suits and women's cleavage, Pius XI was obsessed by an insidious force in Italy - Protestantism, which never took root in the Reformation and was practiced by a mere 135,000 of 42 million Italians, 37,000 of whom were foreigners. For some context, Italy had only 48,000 Jews in the 1930s, which kept neither the state nor the church from attacking them.

By the 1930s, as Mussolini eliminated all opposition, he sought the pope's endorsement for a grand adventure, the 1935 invasion of Ethiopia. Although the League of Nations and the pope (in private) opposed the gambit - in which Italian planes slaughtered civilians with poison gas and bombs - priests blessed battle-ready soldiers.

"Italy finally has her empire," Mussolini declared.

Church and state would tangle over the racial anti-Semitic laws that were passed in Italy to curry favor with Hitler. The laws failed to recognize converted Jews as Catholics, an affront to church doctrine, which led an ailing Pius XI to finally prepare a speech denouncing Fascism. He died before delivering it, and the text, purloined by his staff, sat in a secret Vatican archive until 2006.

The pomp and shadowy intrigue of "The Pope and Mussolini" - reports from Mussolini's network of spies in the Vatican have also come to light - is a grim update on Machiavelli. Any publisher's marketing department will try to peddle this as the real "Da Vinci Code" - only it's rigorously documented and far less implausible.

Pius XI was the victim of plots. On the rare occasions that the stubborn pope would lose his patience with Mussolini and prepare a letter questioning him or his policies, Vatican advisers would edit his anger and tone it down. Crucial to these operations were two Jesuits - the pope's emissary to Mussolini and the order's Polish Superior General - ardent in their anti-Semitism and in their support for Il Duce.

Yet blaming Pius XI's age and infirmity for his timidity takes us back to a crisis in leadership. The pope was backward-looking and weak. Could a stiffer resistance to Il Duce have changed Italian and European history? We'll never know, because it never happened, at least not from the Vatican. During the papacy of Pius XI's compliant successor, Pius XII, trainloads of Jews were sent to Auschwitz, and it took the Fascist leadership to oust Mussolini from power in 1943, after Italy suffered huge casualties on the Russian front.

Readers may wonder where Catholic piety was as Fascists trampled their way into power with seeming impunity. Fear more than faith seemed to drive the Vatican response, and that of the country's Catholic clergy. Kertzer quotes one cardinal saying, "If Mussolini were to go, you would see me hanging from that lamppost."

Mussolini, ever the cynic and the anticlerical (who put crucifixes in Italian classrooms), advised the Nazis on the benefits of allowing religious instruction in public schools. Small favors had won over the church in Italy, "so that they even declared the war in Abyssinia a holy war."

"The Catholic Church is like a rubber ball," writes Kertzer, quoting Il Duce at his most belligerent; "if you don't keep up the pressure, it will return to its original shape."

Kertzer ends his study with the judgment, coy in this case, that Pius XI is now forgotten. No longer, thanks to this author. Yet every pope is a candidate for sainthood, even one who made a deal with the devil. 

Miracles can happen, but with the facts that we now know, the mountaineer's ascent to heaven will be steep.

It comes as little or no surprise that the Vatican has been accused of covering up cases of priests committing child sex abuse. What may be more surprising is the fact that, since 1922, secrecy and cover-up have been official Vatican policy, instigated by nothing less than papal decree.

There was hardly a news source in the world this week that did not give headline coverage to the UN’s scathing condemnation of the Vatican’s testimony on child abuse to its Committee on the Rights of the Child. The condemnation came in the UN’s official response, released on February 5, to the Holy See’s submission. The language was unstintingly blunt.

"The Holy See has not acknowledged the extent of the crimes committed, has not taken the necessary measures to address cases of child sexual abuse and to protect children, and has adopted policies and practices that have led to the continuation of the abuse by and the impunity of the perpetrators," was one of its most damning sentences.

The UN is, of course, an organization that normally deals in diplomatic niceties. But here it effectively endorsed vociferous victim groups such as SNAP (Survivors Network Of Those Abused By Priests), as well as the massed ranks of Church-baiters, and accused the Vatican of a cover-up.

The fact is, though, that this cover-up has not been caused by underhand dealings or the incompetence of bishops – although it cannot be denied that, in some cases, they too have played a part. It is the direct result of papal decrees issued since the time of Pius XI in 1922.

Since the 4th century to varying degrees, clergy had the legal right not to be tried in the civil courts for their crimes but to be tried in the Church’s own canonical courts. That right had virtually disappeared by the 19th century. Secrecy under the papal decrees created a de facto privilege of clergy that had the same effect. If the State courts did not know about these crimes, there would be no State trials and the matter could be treated as a canonical crime in the Church courts.

Relatively speaking, this was something of an innovation. For not far short of a millennium, canon law used to decree that after degradatio - the Church equivalent of a dishonourable discharge - priests found guilty of child sex abuse were to be handed over to the civil authorities for further punishment.

Decrees to this effect were issued by Pope Innocent III (1198), Pope St Pius V (1566 and 1568), the Fourth and Fifth Lateran Councils (1215 and 1514) and the Council of Trent (1551).

Vatican Inc.’s Future Secured by Pope Francis

UNITED STATES
The Open Tabernacle: Here Comes Everybody
Posted on February 8, 2014 by Betty Clermont

“Worldwide banking and financial activities” is a Vatican industry as noted in the CIA Factbook. While the pope has announced one commission to study his Church’s global sex abuse of children, he has created four commissions, hired 6 internationally-renowned consulting firms, and appointed additional clerical allies to make sure that not only his treasure is suitably-managed and expertly-reported but also that every penny is under his control.

Unanimously termed as “cleaning up,” “cleaning house,” “reforming” Vatican finances by the corporate and Catholic media, none have reported whether any of the above has a track record ensuring moral or ethical business practices. Neither have they noted why the pope made changes nor what alternatives were available.

Following 9/11, international bankers and financiers agreed to stop facilitating terrorists. Regulations were approved to prevent terrorists from hiding their financial backers and fund transfers. After the 2008/2009 financial crisis, governments also became more interested in curtailing tax evasion. Pressure was applied on countries known to be offshore havens for illicit transactions, including the Vatican.

An up-to-date account of how this affected the Vatican – including a background in the Holy See’s recent financial history – was expertly presented in the December 6, 2013, issue of The Financial Times.

Those familiar with the early 1980’s Banco Ambrosiano scandal already know that Pope John Paul II allowed the Vatican Bank to be used to benefit criminals, rightwing terrorists, Latin American military dictators, tax evaders and the world’s oligarchs and plutocrats because he wanted the facility left available for clandestine funding of Poland’s Solidarity movement.

UN defends report on Vatican child sex abuse

GENEVA
ANSA
(ANSA) - Geneva, February 7 - The United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child on Friday defended its report on the Vatican's child-abuse track record after the Holy See said it was biased. The Committee made its recommendations after "objectively examining all relevant information...as it (does) with all state parties," said Committee head Kirsten Sandberg.

"As stated in its concluding observations, the Committee welcomed the open and constructive dialogue it had with the delegation of the Holy See, which made positive commitments in numerous areas. "In particular, the Committee regards as positive the willingness expressed by the delegation to change attitudes and practices, and looks forward to the adoption of prompt and firm measures for the concrete implementation of its commitments".

Vatican’s attack on its critics is a familiar tactic

After hearing the UN's scathing attack on its child abuse record, the Vatican's counter-attack against its critics is a familiar tactic, argues David Clohessy

Inadvertently, by their comments over the past day, Vatican officials are essentially proving what a UN panel has concluded: that the Catholic hierarchy is not reforming its handling of clergy sex crimes and cover ups.
For decades, when abuse and cover up reports surface, many church officials "shoot the messenger" and divert attention. Vatican staffers are doing that now.

One of them, Archbishop Silvano Tomasi, attacks the motives of 21 independent children's experts who volunteer to serve on a respected United Nations panel, calling them "ideological" and implying they are deceitful (The report, he claims, "appears to have been written before (Vatican) representatives even had a chance to tell their side of the story..."

He also says that "the report in some ways is not up to date" even though the panel met with Vatican officials just last month (and spent hours quizzing both abuse victims and Vatican staffers).

E di omissioni, secondo il rapporto del Comitato Onu sui diritti dei bambini presentato il 5 febbraio a Ginevra, il Vaticano ne ha compiute molte: «Non ha riconosciuto la portata dei crimini commessi, non ha adottato le misure necessarie per affrontare i casi di abusi sessuali su minori e per proteggere i bambini». Ha invece usato «politiche e pratiche» che hanno permesso la prosecuzione delle violenze e favorito l'impunità degli autori.

 

Papal credibility at the crossroads

ARGENTINA
Buenos Aires Herald
Nice of Pope Francis to pay tribute to the dead firefighters of Barracas but how much substance lies beneath this gesture and many others since the Buenos Aires archbishop became head of the Catholic Church almost a year ago? Not very much, according to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child, which has slammed the Vatican’s inaction over cracking down on pederasts. Nor is the UN committee being unduly impatient — it took Pope Francis fully nine months even to announce the creation of a commission to study sex abuse within the Church (a classic delaying tactic in itself, at least according to Juan Domingo Perón, who famously said: “If you want something to fail, create a commission for it”) with precious little advance since then. The gestures in which the Argentine Jesuit so excels are all which can reasonably be expected in the honeymoon period of any leader but with his first anniversary as pontiff rapidly approaching, Pope Francis should be moving past this stage by now.

Most of the UN committee’s demands can be summed up as placing children first — the core of its mission. This is precisely what the Church fails to do when it refuses to end impunity and the code of silence protecting perpetrators, transferring offenders rather than probing or punishing them in any way — nor has the training of priests been updated to counter abuse since the issue came to light. It is also curious that such a highly centralized institution as the Catholic Church (surely its most salient distinguishing feature when compared with the multiplicity of Protestant denominations and sects) should disclaim any control over its dioceses and parishes around the world — an unsatisfactory response. Even now (since 2010) the Vatican will not go beyond ordering bishops to report abuses when required by law enforcement authorities — there is nothing towards the Church uncovering and reporting these crimes on its own initiative. In the law of the Pope’s native country, covering up a felony is also a crime in itself normally punished by imprisonment of up to 15 years in the most serious cases or at least a fine for minor offences. And yet the Church has no provisions for prosecuting or punishing members of its hierarchy who protect predatory priests.

UN condemns Vatican for crimes against children.. HOORAH. 10 Reasons to abolish the papacy and why there should never be another pope

UNITED STATES
PopeCrimes&Vatican Evils.
Paris Arrow

Galileo. Copernicus. Burning Joan of Arc and witches. For 20 centuries the Vatican has been rendering - papal erratic and tyrannical - judgements on men, women and countries. But today that Catholic Tradition was kaput as a secular committee of the United Nations rendered judgement and condemned the Vatican for its hidden bestial sexual crimes against children. According to the UN findings, in the latter-half of the 20th century, “the Holy See adopted policies and practices that led to continued abuse by, and no punishment for, the perpetrators” - priests sexual abusers - against “tens of thousands of children…for decades”! The UN today proves that the 21st century planet is no longer at the mercy of the religious narcissistic Pope’s ostensible dogmatic authority and his fictitious Merlin sorcery of the Eucharist where he and priests cannot clone an ant or a cat and therefore they cannot clone Jesus’ flesh-and-blood either.

UN names church for what it is: a rogue state

IRELAND
Irish Independent
BRENDAN O'CONNOR – 09 FEBRUARY 2014

WE CAN tend to outrage fatigue when it comes to reports about the crimes committed within the Catholic Church in recent years. So when the UN Committee on the Rights of Children reported last week on its ongoing engagement with the Catholic Church regarding the rights of children within the Vatican and the Holy See, many people will have been tempted to ignore it.

After all, there wasn't much new in it. The church has a history of trafficking babies, of discriminating against children based on their sexuality or that of their parents, and of allowing children to be abused, of protecting their abusers from the law, of moving abusers around –allowing them to abuse again, and when it came to abuse, of "consistently placing the preservation of the church and the protection of the perpetrators above children's best interests". The church has even protected priests from their own children, denying children the right to know the identity of their fathers and "only agreeing payments from the church until the child is financially independent only if they [the mothers] sign a confidentiality agreement not to disclose any information".

We knew all that stuff already, didn't we?

Except it is a little different this time. Because previously our engagement with the church has tended to stay within the family. There has been an emotional attachment that has clouded the issue for us. Because there is always a sense, in this country, that everyone was complicit in all this because, after all, we are, or were, the church.

And because the church was so intermingled with the State here, and with the provision of health, education and welfare, the crimes themselves became intermingled with social norms of the time and so on.

Quote for Day: "When Tribalism Takes Over" (with Commentary on the Tribalistic Reaction of Catholic Journalists to U.N. Report on Vatican)
William D. Lindsey

Steve Benen at Maddow Blog:
It’s amazing what tribalism can do to public perceptions.

Indeed. Case in point: just have a look at what the lock-arms, tribalistic reaction to the recent U.N. report is doing to the perceptions of one centrist Catholic journalist after another these days--to the folks who claim to offer us "balanced" and "objective" analysis of Catholic news, which describes rather than prescribes.

Same old stupidity, same old meanness, same old parochial insularity, same old casual, callous reading out of the Catholic circle of the huge percentage of fellow Catholics who question the teachings of which these centrist arbiters of the Catholic conversation have made a shibboleth.

A great deal of it driven by unacknowledged presuppositions about gender and sexual orientation . . . .

This is why I have said for some time now that, if something has really changed under Pope Francis, I simply can't see it, when these same old, same old voices parse and determine Catholic meaning for me. Because they certainly aren't new in any way.

The wine may be new. But the old wineskins are very shopworn and dried out.

 

No excuses for priestly child abuse

UNITED STATES
Boston Globe
By James Carroll | GLOBE COLUMNIST FEBRUARY 10, 2014

ON THE QUESTION of how far papal authority extends, the canon law of the Catholic Church could not be clearer: “The vicar of Christ. . . possesses full, immediate, and universal ordinary power in the Church, which he is always able to exercise freely.” (Can. 331) Note that canon law does not say, “except in cases of priestly sex abuse of children.” Canon law does not say that priests and bishops are independent contractors. Canon law does not say that what happens in Catholic parishes and dioceses around the world has nothing to do with Rome. In fact, another canon reads, “By virtue of his office, the Roman pontiff not only possesses power over the universal church, but also obtains the primacy of ordinary power over all particular churches and groups of them.” (Can. 333)

How to square that sweeping papal power with the shameless dodge put forward by the Holy See in this era of church disgrace — the claim that, when it comes to protecting children from abuse, the Roman Catholic Church is legally responsible only to safeguard those living in the confines of Vatican City, a tiny city-state that would fit inside New York’s Central Park eight times? Washing the Vatican’s hands of broader responsibility for the staggering transnational accumulation of rapes by priests, and systematic enabling of those rapes by bishops, a Vatican spokesman said, “When individual institutions of national churches are implicated, that does not regard the competence of the Holy See . . . The competence of the Holy See is at the level of the Holy See.”

Last week, the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child mocked that claim by issuing a scathing indictment of Catholic child abuse, laying full responsibility at the feet of the pope himself. The committee, investigating priestly abuse under the authority of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, to which the Vatican is a signatory, reminded the Holy See that “by ratifying the convention it has committed itself to implementing the convention not only on the territory of the Vatican City state, but also as the supreme power of the Catholic Church through individuals and institutions placed under its authority.” The UN committee, that is, upholds canon law better than the Vatican does.

The pope’s men, including squads of lawyers who deny that offending priests and bishops are “employees” and insist that the pope as a sovereign head of state is immune from lawsuits, are obviously seeking to fend off the threat of multinational litigation that could saddle the Vatican with billions of dollars in liabilities. So far, courts have mostly sided with the Holy See.

'Can We Save The Catholic Church?' Asks Hans Küng (BOOK EXCERPT)

Huffington Post

Editor's note: The following is excerpted from "Can We Save The Catholic Church?" by Hans Küng. Reproduced by permission of HarperCollins Publishers. All rights reserved.

The Arab Spring has shaken a whole series of autocratic regimes. With the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI and the election of Pope Francis, might something like this be possible in the Catholic Church as well – a ‘Vatican Spring’?

Of course, the system of the Roman Catholic Church is quite different from those prevailing in Tunisia and Egypt, to say nothing of the absolute monarchies like Saudi Arabia. In all these countries, the reforms that have taken place until now are often no more than minor concessions, and even these are often threatened by those who oppose any progressive reforms in the name of tradition. In Saudi Arabia, most of the traditions, in fact, are only two centuries old; the Catholic Church, by contrast, claims to rest on traditions that go back twenty centuries to Jesus Christ himself.

Is this claim true? In reality, throughout its first millennium, the Church got along quite well without the monarchist–absolutist papacy that we now take for granted. It was only in the eleventh century that a ‘revolution from above’, started by Pope Gregory VII and known as the ‘Gregorian Reform’, gave us the three outstanding features that mark the Roman System to this day:

• a centralist–absolutist papacy;
• clericalist juridicism; and,
• obligatory celibacy for the clergy.

Efforts to reform this system by the reforming councils in the fifteenth century, by the Protestant and Catholic reformers of the sixteenth century, by the supporters of the Enlightenment and the French Revolution in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and, most recently, by the champions of a progressive liberal theology in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, managed to achieve only partial success. Even the Second Vatican Council, from 1962 to 1965, while addressing many concerns of the reformers and modern critics, was effectively thwarted by the power of the papal Curia and managed to implement only a few of the demanded changes. To this day the Curia – in its current form a creature of the eleventh century – is the chief obstacle to any thorough-going reform of the Catholic Church, to any honest ecumenical reconciliation with the other Christian Churches and the world religions, and to any critical, constructive coming-to-terms with the modern world. To make things worse, supported by the Curia, under the previous two popes, there has been a fatal return to old absolutist attitudes and practices.

How a Pope called Pius turned the confessional box into a paradise for paedophiles: From a leading Catholic writer, a devastating exposé of a Vatican ruling

By JOHN CORNWELL

At my Catholic boarding school in the late 1950s there was a jolly priest who heard my confession in his room rather than in a vacant confessional box. After I had recited my laundry list of petty sins, he asked if I was ever tempted to 'commit a sexual sin by myself'.

He suggested that I take out my penis so that he could examine it to see whether I was prone to sudden erections. I left the room immediately. The next year, his proclivities discovered, he was removed by his bishop to another school.

As a child barely out of infancy, I had joined the long queues in our parish church every Saturday to confess my sins. The confessor sat behind a grille inside a dark box like an upturned coffin, smelling of stale perfume and nasty body odours.

I did not realise that we child penitents were guinea-pigs in the greatest moral experiment ever perpetrated on children in the history of Catholicism.

When I started my investigation into Catholic confession I was shocked to discover that young children were not allowed to go to confession before the 20th Century - in previous eras children did not make their first confession until their teenage years.

It was the anxious and pessimistic Pius X, Pope from 1903-1914, who decreed in 1910 that children must make their first confession at the age of seven. Evidently he had taken to heart the Jesuit maxim: 'Give me a child at seven and it's mine for life'.

I did not realise that we child penitents were guinea-pigs in the greatest moral experiment ever perpetrated on children in the history of Catholicism.

When I started my investigation into Catholic confession I was shocked to discover that young children were not allowed to go to confession before the 20th Century - in previous eras children did  not make their first confession  until their teenage years.
It was the anxious and pessimistic Pius X, Pope from 1903-1914, who decreed in 1910 that children must make their first confession at the age of seven. Evidently he had taken to heart the Jesuit maxim: 'Give me a child at seven and it's mine for life'.

Pius also declared that all Catholics, including children, should confess weekly rather than once or twice a year, as was traditional.

Adult Catholics responded enthusiastically throughout the next five decades. Children had no option. 

That papal decision was to prove calamitous for generations of young Catholics. Childhood confession prompted complexes  about sex and unwarranted guilt and, catastrophically, it created ideal opportunities for paedophile priests.
By lowering the age at which children made their first confession, Pius exposed children to priests in unsupervised situations of extraordinary privacy and  intimacy. A significant minority of those confessors proved to be sexual abusers.

Pope Pius X decreed in 1910 that children must make their first confession at the age of seven

Statistics of offences have revealed that the age group most prone to attack was seven to 13 - the precise child cohort admitted to obligatory confession by this papal decree.
The assumption was that priests were to be trusted. But cut off from women and the outside world, ignorant of child psychology, convinced  of unearned privileges and entitlements, many clerics were trapped in emotional immaturity.

The French author and former  seminarian (theology student) Georges Bernanos wrote that seminary  (theological college) 'made schoolboys of us, children to the very end of  our lives'.
The intimate relationship between children and their confessors was at best a recipe for inappropriate encounters; at worst it became a potential paedophiles' paradise.
Childhood confession, and the ideas it put into young heads, was oppressive. Instructions for the sacrament began at the age of five or six.

We were taught that sins which broke the ten commandments or the Church's rules were 'mortal'. In other words these sins killed the soul and earned punishment in the eternal fires of Hell. Unless they were forgiven in the dark box.

What possible sins could a Catholic child commit to deserve Hell for all eternity? Many of these 'mortal' sins were to do with breaking the Church's rules - such as being late for Mass on Sunday, or missing Mass; or breaking the Holy Communion fast.

This fast, when I was child, meant that you could not eat a crumb or drink even a minuscule drop of water from midnight the night before going to holy communion. Many children would agonise over whether they had swallowed a trace of toothpaste, or swallowed a bitten finger nail.

The writer Anthony Burgess recalled that he had joyfully looked up and opened his mouth on the way to his first communion. He swallowed a drop of rain water, then realised that he had broken the fast. He went to communion all the same, and thereafter believed that he was damned.

Above all, there were those mortal sins of 'impurity' in thought, word  and deed. The nuns taught us that 'touching ourselves', or having a 'dirty thought', was 'impure'.
I remember wondering whether I had committed a mortal sin because  I caught a glimpse of a girl's knickers as she high-kicked an Irish jig in front of the class.

'Childhood confession prompted complexes  about sex and unwarranted guilt and, catastrophically, it created ideal opportunities for paedophile priests'

The imposition of frequent confession as children approached puberty was even more oppressive.

Many of my hundreds of respondents spoke of prying confessors. Priests asked bewildered girls indecent questions about their sexual thoughts. Some 60 per cent of the men who wrote to me recalled their confessors' prurient obsession with the 'mortal sin' of masturbation.

The generalised oppression of  children through guilt constituted a form of abuse in itself. But the most insidious consequence of childhood confession was the crime of priestly sexual abuse.
It has been calculated across many developed countries that the incidence amounted to four per cent of the priest population, although in some places the incidence spikes to ten per cent.
Some Catholic apologists claim that this merely reflects the average proportion of paedophiles in the population at large. Given the vocation of a priest, this is like saying that the incidence of obesity among marathon runners should be the same as that in the general population.

More crucially the apologists overlook the profound impact of sexual abuse in a religious context, like confession. A leading priest-psychotherapist, Richard Sipe, has characterised clerical abuse in the confessional as 'soul murder', arguing that such attacks undermine not only the physical and psychological integrity of the victim, but spiritual integrity as well - and for life.

An ordained psychotherapist who has treated many paedophile priests in Britain wrote to me: 'In all those cases of clerical abuse I dealt with,  the sacrament of confession was used by the molester to discover vulnerability and groom candidates  for abuse.'

Circa. 1903 - Portrait of Pope Pius X on the Day of His Coronation

By the late 1950s priests were becoming not only confessors but mentors and counsellors, on trips, retreats, country walks, parties, journeys alone or in groups by car.

The exploitation of confession to seduce the young was often devious in the extreme. A 'Mrs GC' wrote to me of the sexual abuse inflicted on her sister in a parish in South London.

Mrs GC was seven at the time, several years younger than her sister. The priest, Father Brown, was a former missionary and popular in  the parish.

When Mrs GC started going to confession, Father Brown would use her as a go-between to set up assignations with the elder sister.

'He would ask me in the confessional box, “Where is your sister... tell her to come up to my room.” '

Mrs GC said: 'It all came to an abrupt end when he took my sister to the races and sexually abused her on the train coming back. She became a depressive. I'm convinced it was because of this experience that she eventually committed suicide.'

Accusations of abuse within the  confessional have involved a wide constituency of clerics and a variety of types of offences against boys and girls, as revealed in the Database Of Publicly Accused Priests in the US.

The material comprises a detailed list now familiar in many countries - including kissing, digital penetration of girls, sodomy of boys, the practice of 'scouting for victims' and 'using  the confessional to learn children's weaknesses', the practice of 'masturbating young penitents seated on the confessor's lap' and 'plying children with alcohol'.
The most detailed reports of routine abuse in the confessional, typical of thousands of instances around the world and in Britain, have come out  of Ireland. For example, in the course of a trial in Cork in 2010 a complainant told police that in 1983 he was on retreat and went to confession in a private room where the priest asked him to take off his clothes. The  priest touched his genitals and kissed his lips.

A report contained in a child welfare document published by the Diocese of Cloyne told of an incident involving a girl and a priest at a retreat house in Ennismore. 'She was instructed to lie on the bed for her confession to be heard. The priest  then abused her.'
According to the Murphy Report on paedophile priests in Dublin, a parish priest used to 'run his hands all over girl penitents inside their clothing  and then kiss them all on the lips at the end of confession which was conducted in a private room'.

Attacks in confession frequently took place within institutions where children were vulnerable and had no parents to report to.

'Exploitation of confession was often devious in the extreme'

In a case publicised through the 2012 documentary film Mea Maxima Culpa, Father Lawrence Murphy, a serial abuser at a school for the deaf in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, used the confessional, and his ability to sign, to groom and debauch boys in his care.
Credible accusations have been levelled against highly placed clerics in different parts of the world. Cardinal Hans Hermann Groer of Vienna was accused of abusing up to 12 boys in  the confessional. 

Some priests took extraordinary risks. In 1988, an entire class of  girls at a Catholic school in Monageer,  Ireland, complained that they had been sexually molested by a Father Grennan when he heard their confessions in the sanctuary of the parish church. He told the girls in the pews to keep their eyes shut.

During each confession he grasped the penitent child's hands in his hands and pulled her towards his private parts. He was also accused  of 'putting his hands under their skirts and fondling their legs to mid-thigh level'.

The late Father Marcial Maciel, the Mexican founder of the international order of Legionaries of Christ and regarded as a saint during his lifetime, ordered boys of 12 and younger to masturbate him.

Sometimes he would encourage the boys to confess to him after the act and give them absolution. 

Interviews with priests jailed for sexual abuse reveal that they exploited confession to square the circle of their offending and  pastoral lives. A priest in Australia admitted in court that he had committed acts of sexual abuse against children 1,400 times with 32 different confessors.

Pope Pius X in 1904, Vatican City, Rome, Italy

From the mid-1970s, Catholics in their hundreds of millions ceased to confess their sins.

Catholic sociologists of religion, like the late Father Andrew Greeley, believe that the ban on contraception, confirmed by Pope Paul VI in 1968, was the reason.

Most sexually active Catholics simply refused to believe that contraception was a mortal sin. They carried on practising their faith, going to Mass and communion, but ceased to go to confession.

Many more rejected the faith along with papal teaching on contraception, sex before marriage, homosexuality, and confession.

My investigation revealed that the majority of practising Catholics born before 1970 detested the oppression of confession, and gave up on it when they became adults. Many cite how the liberations of the 1960s had encouraged a repudiation of authoritarianism within Catholicism.

The astounding irony is that while most Catholic parents never go to confession themselves, they still allow their children to make their first confession before receiving their first holy communion, typically aged seven.

Moreover, the Church insists that no child can make the important step of first communion until after he or she has been to confession.

These days priests hear the child's confession in the pews, or in a private room with armchairs. The instructions preceding the ritual are much less harsh than they were in the past, but there are catechists who continue to inculcate the teaching on mortal sin and Hell.

Not so long ago, one of my grand-daughters, aged eight, came back from a first communion class asking: 'Grandpa, is it a mortal sin to be late for Mass?'

Many Catholic schools encourage children of primary school age to attend confession as part of the religion curriculum.

And there are moves on the part  of Pope Francis, and many bishops, to bring the faithful back to  frequent confession.

Hundreds of Catholics who have written in response to my investigation accept that confession, now known as 'reconciliation', can have a beneficial part to play in their adult religious lives.

Most, however, would prefer to acknowledge their sins and receive a blessing in token of forgiveness  as part of a congregation rather  than in a one-on-one relationship with a confessor.

Some value 'reconciliation' as  spiritual counselling at important junctures of their lives, for example before marriage, or in sickness, or times of life crises. But many, including child psychologists, see the persistence of obligatory childhood confession as both preposterous and fraught with danger.

Not only does it trivialise this ancient religious ritual but it continues to expose children to virtual strangers in situations of inappropriate intimacy and secrecy.

Backed by the convictions of many hundreds of lay Catholics, I have sent an open letter to Pope Francis and top cardinals in Rome, seeking a ban on childhood confession.

Francis is a listening Pope who wants to know what Catholics really think. I am confident it will reach him. I hope that he will act.

BLACK MAGIC OF EUCHARIST 

1-MINUTE black magic of the cloning of Christ by sinful Vatican pope and priests

SORCERY of Eucharist by Pope Francis who cannot clone an ant or a cat and therefore he cannot clone Jesus Christ either. The Mass is the BIGGEST LIE OF SATAN and the Popes are the FATHERS of LIES!

The incense of the Devil's Bowels that smell like roses at the Vatican and they made it smell like roses also at the UN when the Vatican delegate lied to the whole world.

Our comment: Transubstantiation or the Mass is a recent development . St. Peter and St. Paul and the Apostles never celebrated Mass and never “transubstantiation” the bread into the flesh of Christ, what they did was to preach about Christ. The Mass was a slow development from the 12th century through various liturgical reforms until the 20th century. It was only in 1215 at the Fourth Council of the Lateran that the Mass began to take form and in 1551 at the Council of Trent that transubstantiation became what it is today.

The Vatican has come to use it as its main crux of power on earth deceiving Catholics and peoples of all faiths that only Popes and men-priests have the exclusive power to transubstantiate - or clone - God’s flesh. Because of the Mass, the Vatican has gotten away with all kinds of heinous crimes, e.g. the Crusades, the Inquisition, the burning of women and witcheshttp://jp2m.blogspot.com/2006/11/john-paul-ii-revived-inquisition.html 

"For the sake of the Eucharist” and because of the shortage of priests, John Paul II, Cardinal Ratzinger-Benedict XVI, the Opus Dei who controls the Vatican, the Cardinals and Bishops shuffled pedophile priests from one parish to another. The rest is history: the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army committed Holy ES Eucharist-and-Sodomy of Biblical proportions see the John Paul II Millstonehttp://jp2m.blogspot.com/.

In the name of Hail Mary, we dare challenge and defy the Magisterium: No words pronounced by any finite-man can create an infinite-God! No words of the Pope and priests can re-create or re-incarnate Christ’s flesh. The words of sinful popes and priests are powerless and can never create God! Only Mary the Immaculate Conception deserved to bear God in her womb. No evil pope and evil priests is worthy to touch and hold God in their evil hands. The words of popes and Cardinals, Bishops and priests are mere clashing-cymbals of St. Paul see John Paul II the Great clashing cymbal of St. Paul  http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2009/11/john-paul-ii-great-clashing-cymbal-of.html. 

See Benedict XVI to beatify John Paul II is “brought to nothing” by St. Paul http://pope-ratz.blogspot.com/2009/11/benedict-xvi-to-beatify-john-paul-ii-is.html

No matter how we look at it, finite-man cannot create an infinite-God. Man can never create God’s flesh. Not in in-vitro fertilization of the scientific laboratories. Not in the sacred altars of holy Roman Catholic churches which by the way were the same pedophile altars of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army See the John Paul II Millstone http://jp2m.blogspot.com/

Rome, call us heretics and we don’t care because in Boston and in America, we have freedom of speech. It was our freedom of speech that got rid of criminal-Cardinal Bernard Law and sent him packing out of our sight and out of our land. But only you, Rome, you the Roman Catholic Church a.k.a. Magisterium would glorify criminals like Cardinal Bernard Law and John Paul II. No other American state has been able to replicate our courage as Bostonians who got rid of the first Cardinal caught guilty of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army in America. Yes, we caught the first SS officer of the Third Reich of the Roman Catholic Church … but he went into glorious exile in Rome because only in the Catholic Church are criminals glorified See The John Paul II Millstone John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army expands into Ireland &John Paul is elevated as "Venerable"... only in the Catholic Church are criminals glorified http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2009/12/john-paul-ii-pedophile-priests-army.html

Benedict XVI, from the Chair of Peter, thinks his papal letter will heal the victims and solve the problem of clergy abuse in Ireland. The fact is, Benedict XVI’s words are powerless. NO POPE has ever healed anyone. As this picture shows,

They came sick and they left sick.

There is NO "Apostolic" authority or succession here,

for NO Pope has EVER been able to heal like Peter or Paul did.

Jefferson Bethke In Jesus > Religion, Bethke unpacks similar contrasts that he drew inSpoken Word that went viral on Youtube. In his new book, Bethke highlights the differences between teeth gritting and grace, law and love, performance and peace, despair and hope. With refreshing candor he delves into the motivation behind his message, beginning with the unvarnished tale of his own plunge from the pinnacle of a works-based, fake-smile existence that sapped his strength and led him down a path of destructive behavior. Bethke is quick to acknowledge that he’s not a pastor or theologian, but simply a regular, twenty-something who cried out for a life greater than the one for which he had settled. Along his journey, Bethke discoveredthe real Jesus, who beckoned him beyond the props of false religion. JeffBethke.com A REAL WOMAN FOLLOWER of JESUS CHRIST  -- give your money to her mission in Africa and Asia and stop supporting the IDLE POPE FRANCIS Heidi in her element: sitting with the poor   http://www.irisglobal.org/about/history

The RED DEVIL

The "slimy bastard" Cardinal Bernard Law, those thousands of little boys and little girls who had the grave misfortune of loving and revering this human piece of filth...I’m ashamed to be of the same faith as this evil, malicious creep." But to prove that he is "the Great" John Paul II PAPAL FARTed at us Bostonians and took Cardinal Law to Rome to be the High Priest of the Mother of all Basilicas, that is why Cardinal Law is the Achilles Heel of John Paul II

We do not pray the robotic Rosary or the Divine Mercy. Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe inspires us that she cannot stand these Catholic robotic prayers thatremind Her so much of John Paul II who spent years on the fabrication of the new Luminous Mysteries butat the same time he covered-up 27 years of heinous crimes of his JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army – the largest numbers who are in California. 

The 5 new Mysteries of Light written by John Paul II proved the “JP2 Mysteries of Darkness” during his 27 years papacy wherein he said nothing and did nothing to protect children and to stop thousands of pedophile priests. John Paul II is the most traveled pope but it was all for his narcissistic self glory as John Paul II “the Great” and now we are seeing that the JP2 Army tsunami really infested the whole world as far as Australia. And now the Polish Papal Nuncio in the Dominican Republic was quietly sacked after families discover he has been pimping young prebucent boys, see news below.
