Today being a priest is total hypocrisy. Being priests today is being
impostors and (fake) cloners of Christ. Being priests today is serving the Vatican
Mammon Beast and empowering the Opus Dei Beast PR Deceits Team and the Jesuits
Masters of Deceits. Being priests today
is hypocrisy of Pope Francis who preaches about serving the poor but at the
same time exploiting and oppressing them to serve the 1% Richest persons on the
globe. Being priests today is ultimately
serving the Vatican Swiss Banks that hoard and guard the loot of American and European

From mass murderers, thieves, pedophiles, gays, adulterers like the Borgias, to John Paul II the Great Saint of Pedophiles, to Pope Francis the Worst Thief of Mankind – all popes use Christ as their mask, disguise and bait to serve one master alone –the Vatican Mammon Beast a.k.a. Opus Dei Beast ruling in the Vatican Palace - with only one goal - to preserve the Vatican Billions in secret Vatican Swiss Banks because the Vatican owns Switzerland. Hence there’s the unique Swiss Guard Army wherein all Swiss young men are required to go and serve at the Vatican before they can become bankers, investment managers and civil officers in Switzerland because the Vatican pope is its sole monarch.

El sacerdote que llegó a fungir como representante de la Arquidiócesis de San Luis Potosí, de nombre Eduardo Córdova Bautista, es buscado en 180 países a través de la Policía Internacional de la Interpol por el abuso sexual de 19 menores.
De acuerdo con el procurador de Justicia de SLP, Miguel Ángel García Covarrubias, se tramitó una alerta migratoria en la Interpol Washington ante el supuesto caso de que el cura intente entrar o salir de Estados Unidos.
El procurador de Justicia emitió esta respuesta en un comunicado luego de que defensores de las víctimas protestaran, acusando que el gobierno de San Luis Potosí protege al prófugo sacerdote pederasta.
El fiscal aseguró que no habrá impunidad y que ha actuado con celeridad:
“En este caso siempre se ha actuado con estricto apego a la ley, evitando que haya impunidad, tan es así que en su momento se giró la respectiva orden de aprehensión en contra del ahora ex sacerdote por los delitos de abuso sexual calificado, privación ilegal de la libertad y corrupción de menores”.
Córdova Bautista tiene en su contra desde el 25 de junio pasado una orden de arresto por pederastia en agravio de 19 menores. Fue párroco del Templo de Nuestra Señora de la Anunciación e, incluso, representante de la Arquidiócesis en el estado.

Masked protesters will march on the homes of "elite" paedophiles and public figures they claim have been involved in the "nightmarish" cover-up of child sex abuse.
In a video released on YouTube, Anonymous says it has exposed a club of people in positions of trust and responsibility that have been murdering and torturing children.
"Friday the 13th will see us become the nightmare on Elite Street," the message says.

Kloster Ettal | 27.02.2015 – München
Der Verein Ettaler Missbrauchs- und Misshandlungsopfer hält die vom Landgericht München II dem geständigen Pater G. zugesagte Bewährungsstrafe für problematisch. Aus Sicht von Missbrauchsopfern sei es keine Strafe, "wenn jemand nicht einmal eine Woche ins Gefängnis muss", sagte der Vereinsvorsitzende Robert Köhler am Freitag auf Anfrage der Katholischen Nachrichten-Agentur (KNA) in München. Eine solche Sanktion werde dem "Vergeltungsbedürfnis der Opfer" nicht gerecht.
Zugleich würdigte Köhler die grundsätzliche Bedeutung des Geständnisses. Damit könne nicht mehr bezweifelt werden, dass es diese Übergriffe gegeben habe. Der Ordensmann hatte nach jahrelangem Leugnen am Donnerstag sich im Sinne der Anklage für schuldig bekannt. Demnach hat er als Internatspräfekt in Kloster Ettal zwischen 2001 und 2005 drei Schüler insgesamt 23 Mal sexuell missbraucht. Das Gericht hatte ihm zuvor für den Fall eines Geständnisses eine zur Bewährung ausgesetzte Haftstrafe von nicht mehr als zwei Jahren in Aussicht gestellt. Eines der Opfer soll noch als Zeuge vernommen werden, bevor am 11. März ein Urteil erwartet wird.

Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests
Statement by David Clohessy of St. Louis, Director of SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests ( 314 566 9790, SNAPclohessy@aol.com , davidgclohessy@gmail.com )
Norwegian Catholic officials are accused of exaggerating church rosters to get more money. We’re skeptical of Oslo Bishop Bernt Eidsvig’s claims that he and his colleagues “never intended to do anything illegal."
[The Local]
We’re saddened by these allegations and urge governments to reconsider their agreements to collect fees for churches. These arrangements invite corruption and discourage abuse victims, witnesses and whistleblowers.
This kind of system gives churches too much power to church officials and deters abuse victims from speaking up ("See how powerful church is? See how closely it’s tied to secular authorities? Who will believe me? Why risk speaking up? Nothing will be done if I tell police or prosecutors")
Priest faces jail over sex abuse
UNITED KINGDOM
Belfast Telegraph
27 FEBRUARY 2015
A Catholic priest dubbed the "fat vicar" is facing jail after he was found guilty of sexually abusing a teenage boy at a children's home.
Father Anthony McSweeney, 68, preyed on the vulnerable youngster while working at Grafton Close Children's Home in Hounslow, west London, between 1979 and 1981. Morbidly obese McSweeney was also found guilty of making indecent images of children.
He preyed on the boy with his close friend John Stingemore, 72, who managed the care home and was found dead in January - weeks before his trial.
Wearing a black suit and red tie and carrying a walking stick, McSweeney stared straight ahead as the jury of six men and five women returned their verdicts at London's Southwark Crown Court. He was cleared of three indecent assaults on two other boys at the care home and taking a pornographic photo of one of these boys.

PRAGUE — A court official in the Czech Republic says a Roman Catholic priest has been convicted of rape and sexual abuse and sentenced to five years in prison.
Jan Dolezal, spokesman for the county court in Havlickuv Brod, located some 120 kilometers (75 miles) southeast of Prague, said Erik Tvrdon was found guilty of raping four women and sexually abusing a minor. Police previously said they believed he forced a 13-year old girl to send him naked images of herself.
Tvrdon pleaded not guilty.
Thursday's verdict is not final. Dolezal says the state prosecutor has appealed, demanding a stiffer prison term.

PADRAIC MURPHY HERALD SUN FEBRUARY 27, 2015
A FORMER Catholic priest jailed for molesting students at a Bendigo boarding school is fighting compensation claims brought by his victims.
James Jennings, 81, was jailed last year after being found guilty of molesting boys in his car at St Vincent’s college boarding school in the mid-1960s.
Two victims are now trying to make Jennings pay compensation personally.
Jennings — who maintains his innocence — yesterday attacked one of the victims, claiming he had misled the court by saying he was not motivated by compensation and the jury’s decision may have been different had they known of the compensation claim.
“During my trial (he) very clearly stated he was not interested in money. He had agreed to press charges to assist other victims,” Jennings yesterday told County Court Judge Wendy Wilmoth.

The Migrante International is one of the largest Philippine groups that keep protesting American Imperialism and its power over the Philippine’s President BS Aquino and its corrupt government and they wrote an open letter to Pope Francis asking him, “Pope of the Poor, Fight for Us”. Below is its open letter proving how stupid and idiotic Filipinos are to believe in Pope Francis who is the very same Pope – who colludes with American imperialists – therefore he is the Pope of the Rich who oppresses the Filipino people. Migrante International should have used the visit of Pope Francis to protest US Imperialism and Vatican Imperialism – after all the Philippines (was under Spaniard and the Vatican Catholic Church oppression for over 400 years) and today the Philippines continue to be controlled by the Vatican Catholic Church and the Vatican Swiss Banks continue to hoard American and European Imperialists' loot,the late President Marcos’ loot and President Aquino's loot from the Philippine treasury, read our related article, Hidden Heist in the Holy See.
Confessions of a Gay Jesuit: How I
Was Forced To Leave My Church—And Calling
UNITED STATES
The Daily Beast
Ben Brenkert wanted to be a priest, but confronted by the hypocrisy and prejudice of the Catholic Church he had to quit. Here, in a powerful, heartfelt essay, he explains why.
Today, at 35, I am a gay seminarian who still needs human touch. For me the best place is the Episcopal Church. Some day I will be a priest, hopefully married with children. That’s what I’m looking for, love; it falls under the rubric of modern love. I am a modern gay Christian in search of love, one who still wants to become a priest.
From 2004 to 2014 I was a Jesuit, a member of the Society of Jesus in good standing, an order gone global by the election of Pope Francis I. I left the Jesuits because I left the Roman Catholic Church. I would not be an openly gay priest in a Church that fires LGBTQ employees and volunteers. I left in protest: How could I be an openly gay priest who fires LGBTQ employees and volunteers?
Here’s my story; it is an experiment with truth telling, as much as it is about justice for LGBTQ Christians and non-Christians, men, women and children who have been deeply affected by the millennia of anti-gay theology and hate speech espoused by the Roman Catholic Church. The effects of this violence linger today. ...
In 2006, at 26, we Jesuit novices studied together in Denver. During this summer gay Jesuits met periodically, in secret to discuss the lack of hospitality and welcome by our straight brothers. Many spoke about how this led them into the dark night of the soul, to what some interpreted as an unhealthy uses of pornography, when what they really wanted was genuine human connection.
Of course, using porn contradicted one’s vow of chastity. One immature novice said that for him gay porn was but one means to keep his “gay self” alive and still connected to a community so often alienated by the Church; for me, he was erroneously projecting his own sense of isolation and alienation by the Church onto the gay porn industry.
In those secret meetings we discussed why it was OK for our straight brothers to make crude jokes about women during dinner while we could not discuss ex-boyfriends or what it meant to be healthy, chaste gay man. Our callings we opined were from God irrespective of our sexual orientation.

After nine trials spanning 12 years St Joseph's teacher Brother John Maguire faces sentencing for child sex offences
After nine separate trials spanning 12 years, Brother John Dennis Maguire was used to being in a courtroom.
But when the 71-year-old priest sat in the dock on Friday it was the first time he had faced the prospect of being sentenced for a crime.
From 1978 to the mid-1980s, Maguire was a teacher and dorm master at St Joseph's College in Hunters Hill, an exclusive Catholic school run by the Marist Brothers.
In 2002, he was charged with multiple sexual offences in relation to several students at the school, with the complainants alleging that he would target boys who were homesick – comforting them and then sexually assaulting them.
Maguire pleaded not guilty to the charges and his lawyers successfully applied for each of the allegations to be heard separately.

Don’t let S.F. Archbishop Salvatore
Cordileone’s charm fool you
CALIFORNIA
San Francisco Chronicle
By C.W. Nevius
February 25, 2015
This week, San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone met with The Chronicle’s editorial board. He’s charming, humorous and engaging.
He’s also dead wrong.
The controversy stems from his proposed changes in the collective bargaining agreement with teachers in archdiocese high schools that would designate them as “ministers.” In addition, “clarifications” to school handbooks would emphasize that employees would have to follow the teachings of the church, leading some parents and teachers to call the additions morality clauses because they involve things like same-sex relationships and abortion.
Cordileone may have reconciled his personal beliefs — saying he would allow gay students at archdiocese schools but adamantly opposes the right of same-sex couples to marry — but many of the rest of us are still shaking our heads.
Cordileone made every effort to minimize the controversy, but his explanations were difficult to follow at best.
Take his statement: “To call an act gravely evil does not mean that the person who does the act is an evil person.”
That may be clear to him, but I don’t get it. Among the “evil” activities he’s talking about are homosexuality, same-sex marriage and even in-vitro fertilization. It’s the kind of chilling distinction that puts everyone on edge.
Reporters Lift Curtain on Pope
Francis’ Veto of Hillary Clinton’s Pill
UNITED STATES
Christian Catholicism
Jerry Slevin
* Doggedly determined reporters following Toto’s example at last peeled back on Monday (1/19/15) the Papal Wizard’s curtain. They got the pope unexpectedly to digress about contraception “pills” and even Catholic “rabbits”, as discussed below. Please see also the superb analysis, “The Catholic church’s complicity in {former Manila street child} Glyzelle Palomar’s suffering“,
by Yale educated and prophetic theologian, Jamie Manson, here:
* [National Catholic Reporter]
* and the insightful discussion, “Pope Francis, Breeding Bunnies and Ideological Colonization“, by a leading expert on Catholics and contraception, Patricia Miller, here:
* [Religion Dispatches]
* Pope Francis evidently is gearing up for this summer’s papal push into US presidential politics and likely against family planning advocate, Hillary Clinton. He was untypically revealing about his current plans in responses to questions in his press conference on the flight back from the Philippines. He earlier had been more circumspect publicly after frightened cardinals, who worried about criminal prosecutions and financial bankruptcy, made him pope two years ago , as I recently discussed here Pope, M.L. King & a Dream About Street Children
* President Obama’s likely successor after next year’s US election, Hillary Clinton, has a long history of standing up to the Vatican, especially on the “pill” and contraception, as I recently discussed here Hillary Clinton vs. Pope Francis in 2015 ? Francis made it inevitable, with his “Catholics are not Rabbits” spin, that family planning will be a top issue in the upcoming US presidential elections. Francis and his subordinate US bishops are already following the latest mistaken right wing Republican line that “contraception” equals “abortion”.
Just 16% of Belfast Catholics go to
Mass, says diocese survey
NORTHERN IRELAND
Belfast Telegraph
BY JOANNE SWEENEY – 26 FEBRUARY 2015
Only one in five Catholics is regularly attending Sunday Mass in the Down and Connor Diocese, a new report has revealed.
And attendance at Mass in the greater Belfast area has been recorded as low as 16% of all Catholics who live in the area, according to the diocesan report.
Figures from an audit taken last year in Down and Connor, the second largest diocese on the island, showed that based on the 2011 census figures of a potential 356,585 Catholics, only 72,818 were recorded as attending weekly Mass over a two-week period when the count was taken.
The findings also show a situation of an aging church population against the backdrop of an aging priest population.
There were 27 priests aged under 50 in 2014 and 54 aged between 51 and 65, while a third of all Mass-goers were aged 61 and over.

God's Bankers
By Gerald Posner
Simon & Schuster.
732 pp. $30.
Reviewed by
Michael D. Schaffer
The New Testament is pretty clear on the incompatibility of earthly riches and the Kingdom of Heaven. But if Gerald Posner is right, a lot of people involved with Vatican finances over the years have skipped those passages.
Posner - lawyer, journalist, and Pulitzer-winning author of 11 books - reviews the church's long, complicated history with money, but his main focus is modern times.
His primary aim is the Institute for the Works of Religion, known as the Vatican Bank or IOR, its Italian acronym. Founded in 1942, IOR is supposed to serve the religious mission of the church, but in Posner's telling, it has also served as an offshore bank, tainted by association with shady characters whose list of sins includes money laundering, tax evasion, fraud, even murder.
Pope Pius XII created IOR at the suggestion of the Vatican's financial consultant, Bernardino Nogara, whose investment wizardry carried the Vatican through the Great Depression. Posner spends a lot of time on Pius XII, who was criticized for not taking a stronger stand against Nazi atrocities. "In World War II, Pius XII's silence helped protect a complex web of interlocking business interests with the Third Reich that yielded significant profits for the Vatican," Posner writes. He uses the word likely to describe this scenario. One hopes he is wrong.
Later on, the bank was tarred by association with rogue financiers Roberto Calvi and Michele Sindona and compromised by the ineptitude of Archbishop Paul Marcinkus, a high-ranking American official at the Vatican. In Posner's telling, Marcinkus, who ran IOR from 1971 to 1989, got the job because Pope Paul VI liked him, and kept it thanks to the gratitude of Pope John Paul II, after Marcinkus sent $5 million in 1978 to the Archdiocese of Philadelphia to help clean up a scandal at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa near Doylestown.
It's high time for Pope Francis to
open the Vatican Bank's files
UNITED STATES
Los Angeles Times
Op-Ed
By GERALD POSNER
Pope Francis, who has worked hard to carve out a reputation as a reformer, is facing one of his most daunting challenges when it comes to the Catholic Church's finances, particularly the Vatican Bank. Since World War II — when the bank was created as the equivalent of the Federal Reserve combined with a commercial bank — it has operated with few checks and balances. Over the decades, it has become embroiled in seemingly endless scandals that include questions about wartime profiteering with Nazis, gigantic business schemes and political slush funds.
The Vatican did not even have a law against money laundering until 2011. Some previous popes — including Paul VI in the 1960s and John Paul II in the 1980s — had promised upon their election to tame the church's unruly finances. But they were inevitably defeated by entrenched powers inside Vatican City who pretended to embrace reforms while working surreptitiously to maintain the bank's outlier status. The issue facing the church is whether Francis, riding a remarkable wave of international popularity and goodwill, can accomplish what frustrated his predecessors.
Since becoming pope in 2013, Francis has energetically tried to remake the bank into a transparent and accountable institution through decrees, key appointments and an overall reorganization. By tapping outsiders for important management and enforcement roles at the Vatican Bank, he has started to loosen the grip of old-guard clerics, mostly Italian, who have long wielded the city-state's money power. And Francis' appointment of a respected cardinal, George Pell of Australia, to oversee a new uber financial department, has received a mostly positive reception from Vatican watchers.
But has Francis done enough? Will the Vatican Bank move forward as a compliant member of the international financial community, or will it remain the equivalent of an offshore bank in the heart of Rome? It is too early to tell, in part because no one is certain how long Francis will be pope.

Pope Francis the Jesuit Master of Deceits has announced, "Now in September, God willing, I will canonize Junipero Serra in the United States. He was the evangelizer of the West in the United States." First of all, it is not “God willing” but the “Devil willing” aka “Vatican Mammon Beast willing” aka “Opus Dei Beast PR Deceits Team willing” aka “Jesuits Masters of Deceits willing”.
The Roman Catholic Church used to be a safe haven
for gay priests and pedophile priests – where they were guaranteed to find gay
partners in the most exclusive boys’ club on earth – and where they could tap
on an ample source of supply of little boys (and girls) in Catholic churches packed
with idiots Catholics, in parochial schools run by stupid Catholic nuns, in devout
Pope John Paul II & rosary worshipping Catholic families, in rectories filled
with adulating altar boys. And with additional
perks to – the sure supply of gay men and little boys – priests had the backing
of the Vatican Billions and the cover-up of bishops and cardinals and popes who
imposed secrecy on their clandestine gay and pedophilia orgies – especially the
two new saints John XXIII and John Paul II – thus making the Catholic Church as
the most secure place for gay priests and pedophile priests to satiate their bestial
priestly lust for gay men and young boys (and girls). But all that have changed ever since the
United Nations brought the Vatican – twice - to its tribunals and found the
Holy See guilty of crimes against humanity’s children. And victims worldwide are continuously coming
out to expose evil pedophile priests (especially through SNAP and secular
lawyers) and they are no longer ashamed to reveal their silent decades of torments

Latin America Catholic Church losing ground: report.
Jesus is liberated from (prison) Catholic tabernacle as Catholics no longer
believe in "magical" powers of popes and priests http://pope-francis-con-christ.blogspot.ca/2014/11/latin-america-catholic-church-losing.html
Priestly
prestige and hypocrisy
Priests also have the financial security perks from
the Vatican Billions and the imposing guards of giant statues of Catholic
saints inside Catholic churches that deceives idiots Catholics with false piety
like new saint John Paul II. Priests have
the adulation and prestige of being called as Reverend “Father” by 1.2 billion
idiots Catholics especially by stupid Catholic nuns and stupid Catholic women -
who teach, train and force their children to believe that priests are the
“representative of Christ”. Most of all,
priests have the magical power to clone instantly the flesh-and-blood of Christ
in the (sorcery) of the Eucharist – making them the greatest magicians since
Merlin – see more below in the Hoax of the Eucharist.

Vatican assets in the United States of America
The Catholic Church in the United States, with “assets of more than $100 billion, today possesses more than ten times the combined wealth of IBM, Exxon, General Motors, and U.S. Steel.”
- stock it controls on the New York and American stock exchanges, and property, gold reserves, and paintings—are probably $50 billion to $60 billion
- There is no accountability for these funds to anyone except the Vatican. Everything is done in complete secrecy
- The hierarchy has learned to act indirectly through Catholic laypersons
- The hierarchy acts through Catholic politicians – see list below
Note that this Vatican fortune in the USA has only multiplied – exponentially –through the decades since that book was written.

At European Union Parliament, misogynist Pope Francis described Europe as a “grandmother, no longer fertile and vibrant,” but instead “elderly and haggard”
http://pope-francis-con-christ.blogspot.ca/2014/12/at-european-union-parliament-misogynist.html
Pope Francis the Jesuit Rich Fool
Among all the 15 ailments that Francis lectured on his Vatican Curia staff (who serve only the Vatican Mammon Beast aka Opus Dei Beast), the allusion to the rich best applies to himself. “It is the sickness of the rich fool who thinks he will live for all eternity, and of those who transform themselves into masters and believe themselves superior to others, rather than at their service”. Pope Francis’ unprecedented “Hidden Heist in the Holy See” makes him as the “rich fool” because as the first Jesuit Pope, he has transformed himself into the prime master of deceits and he believes he is superior to others --- as he hoards the loots of despots and imperialists in secret Vatican Swiss Banks thus breeding wars in many nations and as consequence of poverty, violence against children and women --- instead of being at their service. What Pope Francis does is to pay lip-service to the poor while serving only the 1% richest people on the globe.
Pope Francis is the “rich fool” who knows he will for all eternity be pope– but like a ruse snake, he knows has only a limited window of opportunity to sweep under the rug the Vatican Billions amassed by his papal predecessors – especially John Paul II in his longest 27 years papacy.
Pope Francis is the Jesuit Master of Deceits and he had to make the Vatican Bank appear acceptable to modern banking standards because the small fake country of the Vatican has to make business with Italy and other countries – read our related article, Obama admin versus Vatican Bank: A compilation. USA government lists Vatican as 'potential money-laundering center' http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2012/03/obama-admin-list-vatican-as-potential.html
But Switzerland is the other Vatican country that is above-the-law- and above-banking-laws --- accountable to no one but to itself, just like Vatican Autocracy. It is time for the United Nations to abolish the Vatican as a (fake) country and to abolish Switzerland as a “neutral country”.

Human Rights Day: “No land, No life”,
Land grabbing is a human rights violation
Statement
10 December 2014
10 December 2014
Statement to mark the International Human Rights Day collectively issued by the PAN Asia Pacific (PANAP); Aliansi Gerakan Reforma Agraria (AGRA) of Indonesia, National Fisheries Solidarity Movement (NAFSO) of Sri Lanka; Kilusang Magbubukid ng Pilipinas (KMP) of the Philippines; Human Development Organization (HDO) of Sri Lanka; Unyon ng mga Manggagawa sa Agrikultura (UMA) of the Philippines; Society for Rural Education and Development (SRED) of India; General Agricultural Workers Union (GAWU) of Ghana; Farm Worker Association of Florida (FWAF) of the US; Coalition of Agricultural Workers International (CAWI)
As the world marks the International Human Rights Day today, 10 December, we wish to highlight a form of human rights violation that does not get as much attention but nonetheless deeply impacts millions of people around the world, especially in the poor countries. Land grabbing, often accompanied by the grabbing away of resources such as water, represents a worsening threat to the economic, social and cultural rights of countless local communities, including the indigenous peoples. This systemic violation of human rights, including the right to food, right to self-determination of peoples and right to development, must be stopped.
Data from the Land Portal’s Land Matrix show that worldwide land grabbing involves around 36 million hectares, as of March 2014. Most land grabbing deals are concentrated in Africa and the Asia Pacific region, accounting for about 41% and 38%, respectively of about 942 land deals monitored by the Land Matrix. Within Asia Pacific, land deals are heavily concentrated in Southeast Asia, comprising 83% of the regional total and 32% of the global total. Estimates on the extent of land grabbing vary widely but it could not be denied that it is a daily reality confronting rural and indigenous communities.
In many cases, large-scale land investments for export-oriented plantations, logging, mining, biofuel production and power production among others result to the eviction of small food producers and indigenous peoples, many of whom are without formal security of tenure despite tilling, enriching and occupying the land for decades. National and local governments often negotiate with foreign and domestic investors behind closed doors and in patent disregard for the participation of local communities that will be impacted by such investments, including their access to land and productive resources. These investments are also made and promoted without due consideration to the actual development needs of affected local communities that lead to their further marginalization and oppression.
Worse, the human rights violations against the people even go beyond the actual land grabbing and also involve atrocities that blatantly attack the political and civil rights of those who challenge these land-grabbing deals and investments. There are numerous cases and many of them remain undocumented and unreported, and most are unresolved due to the involvement of state security forces themselves as well as private armed groups hired by the companies. This has been the case in the Philippines, Indonesia, Pakistan, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and many others where anti-land grabbing activists, local community leaders, and their supporters face human rights atrocities ranging from extrajudicial killings, abduction, legal persecution and harassment, among others. Impunity reigns in many rural communities that have been heavily militarized to protect corporate investments.
We call on governments and private corporations to respect and implement existing human rights principles enshrined in national laws and international instruments, including the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. We demand that the right to free, prior and informed consent of communities be upheld before any land investments are made.
We demand to respect the customary rights of the people who do not have legal ownership of the land and water bodies. We demand the demilitarization of rural communities and the prosecution of all those who have committed human rights atrocities against people who are justly defending their legitimate right to land and resources. We demand the implementation of genuine agrarian reform to promote the rights and welfare of small food producers and to promote long-term rural and economic development that serves the interests of the people and not the just the elite few.
We welcome recent developments that aim to provide people an opportunity to make corporations that violate their human rights accountable. In particular, we take note of the United Nations Human Rights Council’s (UNHRC) resolution this year calling for the establishment of “an open-ended intergovernmental working group on a legally binding instrument on transnational corporations and other business enterprises with respect to human rights”. Amid continuing trends of free trade and investment agreements that allow TNCs to sue governments, the UNHRC resolution is positive move towards regulating TNCs and their activities in the context of human rights.
We emphasize, however, that the best prospects for the promotion of human rights, including the right to land and resources, lie not in any legal instrument but in the relentless struggle of the affected communities to defend their human rights. Thus, working with those directly affected and violated, we vow to continue the fight to oppose land grabbing and defend the human rights of rural and indigenous communities.
GABRIELA USA calls on you to join us in support of our campaigns against economic, state, military, and gender violence here in the U.S., in the Philippines, and internationally. We demand justice for victims of police violence, human trafficking, man-made environmental disasters, and economic inequality. We demand justice for all victims of human rights violations!

The Philippines Under U.S. Imperialism
The American forces’ murderous reputation and culture of impunity extends internationally. In the Philippines, U.S. Marine PFC Joseph Scott Pemberton violently killed Jennifer Laude, a 26-year-old transgender Filipina. Instead of facing criminal charges under Philippine law, Pemberton is still in U.S. custody and benefits from its protection. Laude’s murder follows the tired pattern of Filipina victims of violence at the hands of U.S. troops illegally stationed in the Philippines. Under the Philippines-U.S. Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) and the 2014 Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA), the Philippines has ultimately given up its rights to its colonial American master and relegated Filipinos, and especially Filipina women, to second-class citizens. The inaction and failure of the Philippine government to protect its own citizens exposes its true agenda: to serve the economic and military interests of the U.S.
A case in point of this is the frequent and extreme typhoons that have erased whole communities. Due to Philippine government corruption and pandering to multinational corporations, the country suffers from weak infrastructure, landslides due to large-scale mining and logging, poor warning systems, and hoarding of relief funds and goods by the Philippine government. U.S. military "relief" is in fact a ploy to justify sending in more troops, as to this day, many families have not received any relief and instead have relied on people’s volunteer organizations on the ground and foreign humanitarian groups, such as the National Alliance for Filipino Concerns. Aquino’s political impotence reveals the nature of his presidency as a puppet for U.S. interests.
The U.S.’ imperialist efforts toward political and economic domination is a key contributor to global human rights violations in all its forms. The global migration phenomenon is a result of unjust economic policies designed and implemented to benefit the U.S. and a handful of the most powerful governments and corporations at the expense of migrant workers. Filipinos, especially women, fall victim to labor and sex trafficking. GABRIELA USA is calling for justice for over 300 teachers who were recently trafficked by Isidro Rodriguez in Washington, D.C. Predatory agents like Rodriguez take advantage of the vulnerability of migrant workers due to weak legal protections in both their home and host countries.
The People’s Demands
The Philippine government, under President Benigno Aquino, is complicit in serving the agenda of the U.S. imperialists to break into the markets of the Asia Pacific at the costs of the basic rights and welfare of its own people. GABRIELA USA exposes the U.S. imperialist agenda motivated by profit and power. We oppose state violence against all people in the U.S. and internationally including cis-women, trans-women, immigrants and migrants, and we recognize the common threads in these narratives.
GABRIELA USA joins the voices of our kababayans in calling for President Aquino to step down or be removed by the people’s will. Aquino must answer for countless criminal acts during his regime, including but not limited to facilitation of human trafficking, negligence in response to natural disasters, and abetting the U.S. in its “War on Terror.” Aquino is murdering and terrorizing Filipinos using military funding from the same government that murders and terrorizes its own black and brown communities with highly militarized police forces. It’s all part of a bigger picture and it needs to stop now.

SPANISH COLONIZATION SUMMARY & ANALYSIS
1492
The arrival of Europeans in the New World in 1492 changed the Americas forever. Over the course of the next 350 years, Spain ruled a vast empire based on the labor and exploitation of the Indian population. Conquistadors descended on America with hopes of bringing Catholicism to new lands while extracting great riches.Religion and self-interest combined to create a potent mixture that drew hundreds of thousands of Spaniards across the ocean with hopes of finding riches and winning souls for God. Along with the Spaniards came diseases to which the New World natives had no immunities.
What followed was one of the greatest tragedies in human history as smallpox, influenza, and other communicable diseases ravaged the native populations, killing millions. The Spanish never set out to destroy the people of the New World—after all, their goal was to use Indian labor for their own ends—and almost immediately a debate arose in Spain concerning the rights of Indians. This was the first time any European nation had consciously debated the rights and status of non-Christians. The traffic of Europeans to the Americas was not a one-way street. The so-called Columbian Exchange brought European goods and ideas to the New World—including the horse, which was not native to the Western Hemisphere—and returned new plants and animals to the Old World, including potatoes, corn, tomatoes and other crops. The world was forever changed by the new horizons opened by Spain's intrepid explorers, despite the misdeeds of Spanish rule in America.
Spanish conquistadors, who were primarily poor nobles from the impoverished west and south of Spain, were able to conquer the huge empires of the New World with the help of superior military technology, disease (which weakened Indian resistance), and military tactics including surprise attacks and powerful alliances with local tribes. Once an area had been conquered, it was partitioned intoencomiendas, or grants of land. More importantly, the Indian people themselves were parceled out to the conquistadors, who were given title to the land and its people in return for a promise to teach the natives Christianity. This system was heavily abused, and Indians throughout the Americas were reduced to a condition of virtual slavery.
However, due to natural attrition and harsh misrule, the population of native laborers soon became too small for the voracious Spanish, so they began to import African slaves to work in sugar plantations and silver mines. The introduction of African traditions to the Native American and mestizo cultures already in existence made for a social mixture richer than in almost any other part of the world, although racism continued to play a dark role in the New World. Colonial society was hierarchical, based upon on the amount of non-Spanish blood a person possessed. A complicated system, called the casta, delineated over 100 separate names for groups containing certain levels of Indian and African blood. Jobs, government positions, titles to land, and almost everything else in the Americas functioned according to this system with those at the top getting preference over those lower on the list. Discrimination and repression were features of Spanish colonial rule throughout its history.
Spain's government in Madrid tried hard to govern the New World, despite its distance from Europe. Using a system of viceroyalties and audencias, royal courts of appeals, the Spanish Monarchy was able to exercise control over Spanish settlers, even when they didn't want any sort of interference from the central government. The Crown was entitled to one-fifth of all mining profits, and this huge income helped Spain to become the largest and most powerful empire in Europe by 1600. Religion was mixed with politics to create a hybrid system in what would become the American Southwest: Dominican, Franciscan and Jesuit missionaries were often left in charge of large areas in what is now Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and, later, California. With its goal of bringing the Catholic religion to the New World, Spain was also able to use the existing church governments for its own political uses. Today, religion and politics continue to mix in Latin America.
The often-heavy handed rule from Madrid and the new ideas of liberty and freedom coming out of the American and French Revolutions brought about the wars of Independence in the early nineteenth century. Simón Bolívar—the Great Liberator—and José de San Martin led the fight for independence, although this was not a fight for Indian rights, or on behalf of the poor. Those who fought for South American independence were called criollos, American-born descendants of Spaniards, and they continued to rule the many new nations of Spanish America for generations. The Spanish left a legacy of cruelty and exploitation in their wake, but they also managed to open the world and increase cultural exchanges to a level never before seen in human history.

The SPANISH EMPIRE
The Spanish Empire (Spanish: Imperio español) was one of the first empires of global extent, having its peak of political and economic power under the Spanish Habsburgs[1] through the 16th and 17th centuries, becoming the foremost global power of its time, and was the first to be called the empire on which the sun never sets. Its land was eventually administered from Madrid by the Spanish Crown and comprised territories and colonies in Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania. It originated during the Age of Exploration after the voyages of Christopher Columbus. Spain's territorial reach beyond Europe included the Greater Antilles, half of South America, most of Central America and much of North America(including present day Mexico, Florida and the Southwestern and Pacific Coastal regions of the United States), as well as a number of Pacific Ocean archipelagos including the Philippines.
The bulk of Spain's Empire was held for over three centuries, starting in 1492 with the Spanish colonization of the Americas and lasting until the early 19th centurySpanish American wars of independence that left only Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines as Spanish. Following the Spanish–American War of 1898, Spain ceded its last colonies in the Caribbean and the Pacific to the United States. Its last African colonies were granted independence in 1975. In conjunction with the territories of the Portuguese Empire, which Spain controlled from 1580 to 1640, the Spanish Empire started the European dominance in global affairs.
The Spanish Empire left a cultural and linguistic legacy, particularly in the Western Hemisphere. With over 470 million native speakers today, Spanish is the second most spoken native language in the world, as result of the transfer the language of Castile (Castellano) to Spanish America in the colonial era. The other major cultural legacy of the Spanish empire overseas was Roman Catholicism, converting the indigenous peoples to the new religion in what was known as the "spiritual conquest." Catholicism remains the dominant religious faith in Spanish America.
"There are thousands of gold and silver pieces of Inca and pre-Inca handicraft, the most beautiful goldsmith works. . .I could not remove it alone, nor could thousands of men."

Vatican assets in the United States of America
The Catholic Church in the United States, with “assets of more than $100 billion, today possesses more than ten times the combined wealth of IBM, Exxon, General Motors, and U.S. Steel.”
- stock it controls on the New York and American stock exchanges, and property, gold reserves, and paintings—are probably $50 billion to $60 billion
- There is no accountability for these funds to anyone except the Vatican. Everything is done in complete secrecy
- The hierarchy has learned to act indirectly through Catholic laypersons
- The hierarchy acts through Catholic politicians – see list below
Note that this Vatican fortune in the USA has only multiplied – exponentially –through the decades since that book was written.

The Dark Side of the Papacy: Pope Crimes Revealed
The world is discovering the truth about the global organization known as the "Catholic Church": it is the mother of all abominations on Earth, the root cause of all world suffering, poverty, crimes. With their false appearance of 'mercy' and 'holiness' they have managed to fool the masses into believing they are representatives of Christ, presenting the world with an expired doctrine that brings death. A statistical report shows proof of over 10 million crimes committed by priests and nuns in the nations, since these evil and perverse men (and women) proclaim "celibacy" which is a doctrine of demons that has led to sexual abuse of thousands of innocent children and women around the world. Pope Francis and the previous Pope "Benedict XVI" aren't the only corrupt and evil "popes"...the Vatican has a long track record of criminal popes, starting with the first one - Peter. For this purpose, we highlight a book that sheds light into the dark side of the Papacy, so that you can learn the facts:
This post and blogs are inspired by St. Michael the Archangel whose flaming sword defends us from Goliath bullies of Opus Dei Beast Mafia. St. Michael shows us - through the much canonization news coming out this week – (see compilation below) – that there are more journalists speaking out against John Paul II’s sainthood, therefore our blogs all these years have not been in vain. Read Paris Arrow’s vision of St. Michael tying the giant millstone around John Paul II’s papal neck during his last World Youth Day in Toronto in 2002, as JP2 vehemently refuse to apologize and stop his bestial JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army, St. Michael dragged him and threw him into a raging sea of fire as stupid Catholic robots chanted “JP2, we love you”. http://jp2m.blogspot.ca/2011/09/911-decade-and-jp2-millstones-9th.html Beware, Francis-Maniacs for the demise of the Vatican Temple akin to the Temple of Solomon is at hand!

Look at these photos he had in South Korea as he showed all his teeth laughing - versus - when he holds a crucifix in the procession and at the Eucharist Satanic Mass, he looks very grim.

Francis in-name-only
Pope Francis, YOU took Francis of Assisi’s name – but that’s all there is, isn’t it? You are “in name only” – nothing else. There’s nothing similar in essence or substance or in person between you and St. Francis - and if the Opus Dei Beast PR Deceits Team are already preparing for your sainthood like they did with documents for John Paul II’s 27 years papacy, you’re being duped big time. You should have retired into a simple cave like poverello St. Francis of Assisi – who even refused to be a priest to clone the flesh of Christ because he knew as he wrote his canticle to the moon and stars - that no one can clone the Creator of those millions of stars in the firmament. Ever saw these images of NASA “Hand of God and Pillars of Creation”? Can you clone one of these with your papal infallible words? You cannot clone an ant or a dog or a star and therefore you cannot clone Christ either.

Why do you think your founder St. Ignatius Loyola specifically wrote in the constitution of the Jesuits that no Jesuits must accept to be a high ranking bishop or cardinal? Jesuits were meant to be companions of Jesus, not companions of the Devil, the father of lies who came to steal, kill and destroy. Ignatius had no choice 500 years ago to go to the world to proclaim the Good News that he needed the ships of the Vatican and the European monarchy. But today, the Jesuits have amassed more wealth than any religious congregation, you have all the universities and schools you want or need. There is no need to continue serving the Pope, the Father of Lies the reincarnation of the Devil! But you set your sight on the highest throne in the Catholic Church and now the favorite words of St. Ignatius haunts you: What does it profit a man to gain the entire world, if he suffers the loss of his soul? …and you have committed the worst Pope Crimes more than all popes combined – you canonized John Paul II despite his JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army, read here Cold-blood-ed John Paul is no saint for children because he said nothing and did nothing to save and protect them for 27 years
Jesus the Jew vs. Roman Pope Francis
Amazing how Jesus has lose his Middle East roots and Jewish identity (albeit born in Bethlehem, Palestine, a Muslim country) and lose His Biblical mission as a poor itinerant preacher for He has become Roman Catholic and hostage of the most tiny country - the Vatican City where He is also the most caged captive in gold tabernacles by tyrant evil popes – those 2,000 year old chameleons Pretenders and Impostors of Jesus and con-artists CON-Christ popes.
From mass murderers, thieves, pedophiles, gays, adulterers like the Borgias, to John Paul II the Great Saint of Pedophiles, to Pope Francis the Worst Thief of Mankind – all popes use Christ as their mask, disguise and bait to serve one master alone –the Vatican Mammon Beast a.k.a. Opus Dei Beast ruling in the Vatican Palace - with only one goal - to preserve the Vatican Billions in secret Vatican Swiss Banks because the Vatican owns Switzerland. Hence there’s the unique Swiss Guard Army wherein all Swiss young men are required to go and serve at the Vatican before they can become bankers, investment managers and civil officers in Switzerland because the Vatican pope is its sole monarch. Believe it or not!
Pope Francis, the two new pope saints John XXIII and John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and all popes definitely do not resemble one iota Jesus the Poor Carpenter of Nazareth and Poor Fisherman in the Sea of Galilee! All movies portray Jesus as tall, lean and handsome but all popes, his assumed ‘Vicar of Christ’, have been FAT like COWS podgy, white and really hideous and repugnant they need the long white papal robe to constantly segue attention from their ugliness. Just look at the porky ass of Pope Francis that control 1.2 billion Catholics and the media world with his duck dance of wibble wobble Opus Dei Beast PR stunts. Look at this gigantic poster in Rome of porky ass Pope Francis with the two fat popes new saints he canonized –John XXIII and John Paul II the 27 years globetrotting narcissistic pope – who said nothing and did nothing to protect children from his JP2 Army – John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army aptly named after his 27 years globetrotting papacy - and 1.2 billion stupid Catholics now adore them as their new fat Catholic Golden Cows.

El sacerdote que llegó a fungir como representante de la Arquidiócesis de San Luis Potosí, de nombre Eduardo Córdova Bautista, es buscado en 180 países a través de la Policía Internacional de la Interpol por el abuso sexual de 19 menores.
De acuerdo con el procurador de Justicia de SLP, Miguel Ángel García Covarrubias, se tramitó una alerta migratoria en la Interpol Washington ante el supuesto caso de que el cura intente entrar o salir de Estados Unidos.
El procurador de Justicia emitió esta respuesta en un comunicado luego de que defensores de las víctimas protestaran, acusando que el gobierno de San Luis Potosí protege al prófugo sacerdote pederasta.
El fiscal aseguró que no habrá impunidad y que ha actuado con celeridad:
“En este caso siempre se ha actuado con estricto apego a la ley, evitando que haya impunidad, tan es así que en su momento se giró la respectiva orden de aprehensión en contra del ahora ex sacerdote por los delitos de abuso sexual calificado, privación ilegal de la libertad y corrupción de menores”.
Córdova Bautista tiene en su contra desde el 25 de junio pasado una orden de arresto por pederastia en agravio de 19 menores. Fue párroco del Templo de Nuestra Señora de la Anunciación e, incluso, representante de la Arquidiócesis en el estado.

DEUTSCHLANDKatholisch
[An association of victims of abuse at Ettal Monastery said giving their abuser probation is no penalty.]
Kloster Ettal | 27.02.2015 – München
Der Verein Ettaler Missbrauchs- und Misshandlungsopfer hält die vom Landgericht München II dem geständigen Pater G. zugesagte Bewährungsstrafe für problematisch. Aus Sicht von Missbrauchsopfern sei es keine Strafe, "wenn jemand nicht einmal eine Woche ins Gefängnis muss", sagte der Vereinsvorsitzende Robert Köhler am Freitag auf Anfrage der Katholischen Nachrichten-Agentur (KNA) in München. Eine solche Sanktion werde dem "Vergeltungsbedürfnis der Opfer" nicht gerecht.
Zugleich würdigte Köhler die grundsätzliche Bedeutung des Geständnisses. Damit könne nicht mehr bezweifelt werden, dass es diese Übergriffe gegeben habe. Der Ordensmann hatte nach jahrelangem Leugnen am Donnerstag sich im Sinne der Anklage für schuldig bekannt. Demnach hat er als Internatspräfekt in Kloster Ettal zwischen 2001 und 2005 drei Schüler insgesamt 23 Mal sexuell missbraucht. Das Gericht hatte ihm zuvor für den Fall eines Geständnisses eine zur Bewährung ausgesetzte Haftstrafe von nicht mehr als zwei Jahren in Aussicht gestellt. Eines der Opfer soll noch als Zeuge vernommen werden, bevor am 11. März ein Urteil erwartet wird.

Statement by David Clohessy of St. Louis, Director of SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests ( 314 566 9790, SNAPclohessy@aol.com , davidgclohessy@gmail.com )
Norwegian Catholic officials are accused of exaggerating church rosters to get more money. We’re skeptical of Oslo Bishop Bernt Eidsvig’s claims that he and his colleagues “never intended to do anything illegal."
[The Local]
We’re saddened by these allegations and urge governments to reconsider their agreements to collect fees for churches. These arrangements invite corruption and discourage abuse victims, witnesses and whistleblowers.
This kind of system gives churches too much power to church officials and deters abuse victims from speaking up ("See how powerful church is? See how closely it’s tied to secular authorities? Who will believe me? Why risk speaking up? Nothing will be done if I tell police or prosecutors")
Priest faces jail over sex abuse
UNITED KINGDOMBelfast Telegraph
27 FEBRUARY 2015
A Catholic priest dubbed the "fat vicar" is facing jail after he was found guilty of sexually abusing a teenage boy at a children's home.
Father Anthony McSweeney, 68, preyed on the vulnerable youngster while working at Grafton Close Children's Home in Hounslow, west London, between 1979 and 1981. Morbidly obese McSweeney was also found guilty of making indecent images of children.
He preyed on the boy with his close friend John Stingemore, 72, who managed the care home and was found dead in January - weeks before his trial.
Wearing a black suit and red tie and carrying a walking stick, McSweeney stared straight ahead as the jury of six men and five women returned their verdicts at London's Southwark Crown Court. He was cleared of three indecent assaults on two other boys at the care home and taking a pornographic photo of one of these boys.

CZECH REPUBLICStar Tribune
Associated Press Updated: February 26, 2015
PRAGUE — A court official in the Czech Republic says a Roman Catholic priest has been convicted of rape and sexual abuse and sentenced to five years in prison.
Jan Dolezal, spokesman for the county court in Havlickuv Brod, located some 120 kilometers (75 miles) southeast of Prague, said Erik Tvrdon was found guilty of raping four women and sexually abusing a minor. Police previously said they believed he forced a 13-year old girl to send him naked images of herself.
Tvrdon pleaded not guilty.
Thursday's verdict is not final. Dolezal says the state prosecutor has appealed, demanding a stiffer prison term.

James Jennings, 81, was jailed last year after being found guilty of molesting boys in his car at St Vincent’s college boarding school in the mid-1960s.
Two victims are now trying to make Jennings pay compensation personally.
Jennings — who maintains his innocence — yesterday attacked one of the victims, claiming he had misled the court by saying he was not motivated by compensation and the jury’s decision may have been different had they known of the compensation claim.
“During my trial (he) very clearly stated he was not interested in money. He had agreed to press charges to assist other victims,” Jennings yesterday told County Court Judge Wendy Wilmoth.

Il religioso, J.Q., prestava servizio nella comunità di O Cebreiro e le manette sono scattate due giorni fa lungo il Cammino francese di Santiago a seguito delle indagini avviate dopo le denunce dei parenti delle vittime. Nella sua abitazione sono stati sequestrati computer, cellulare e dispositivi elettronici, con un archivio di video in cui il francescano appare mantenendo rapporti con la minore.
Philippines idiots Catholics &
Migrante International missed biggest protest against Pope Francis - Pope of
the Richest 1% of the Globe -NOT Pope of the Poor
UNITED STATESPopeCrimes& Vatican Evils.
Paris Arrow
The Migrante International is one of the largest Philippine groups that keep protesting American Imperialism and its power over the Philippine’s President BS Aquino and its corrupt government and they wrote an open letter to Pope Francis asking him, “Pope of the Poor, Fight for Us”. Below is its open letter proving how stupid and idiotic Filipinos are to believe in Pope Francis who is the very same Pope – who colludes with American imperialists – therefore he is the Pope of the Rich who oppresses the Filipino people. Migrante International should have used the visit of Pope Francis to protest US Imperialism and Vatican Imperialism – after all the Philippines (was under Spaniard and the Vatican Catholic Church oppression for over 400 years) and today the Philippines continue to be controlled by the Vatican Catholic Church and the Vatican Swiss Banks continue to hoard American and European Imperialists' loot,the late President Marcos’ loot and President Aquino's loot from the Philippine treasury, read our related article, Hidden Heist in the Holy See.

Confessions of a Gay Jesuit: How I
Was Forced To Leave My Church—And Calling
UNITED STATESThe Daily Beast
Ben Brenkert wanted to be a priest, but confronted by the hypocrisy and prejudice of the Catholic Church he had to quit. Here, in a powerful, heartfelt essay, he explains why.
Today, at 35, I am a gay seminarian who still needs human touch. For me the best place is the Episcopal Church. Some day I will be a priest, hopefully married with children. That’s what I’m looking for, love; it falls under the rubric of modern love. I am a modern gay Christian in search of love, one who still wants to become a priest.
From 2004 to 2014 I was a Jesuit, a member of the Society of Jesus in good standing, an order gone global by the election of Pope Francis I. I left the Jesuits because I left the Roman Catholic Church. I would not be an openly gay priest in a Church that fires LGBTQ employees and volunteers. I left in protest: How could I be an openly gay priest who fires LGBTQ employees and volunteers?
Here’s my story; it is an experiment with truth telling, as much as it is about justice for LGBTQ Christians and non-Christians, men, women and children who have been deeply affected by the millennia of anti-gay theology and hate speech espoused by the Roman Catholic Church. The effects of this violence linger today. ...
In 2006, at 26, we Jesuit novices studied together in Denver. During this summer gay Jesuits met periodically, in secret to discuss the lack of hospitality and welcome by our straight brothers. Many spoke about how this led them into the dark night of the soul, to what some interpreted as an unhealthy uses of pornography, when what they really wanted was genuine human connection.
Of course, using porn contradicted one’s vow of chastity. One immature novice said that for him gay porn was but one means to keep his “gay self” alive and still connected to a community so often alienated by the Church; for me, he was erroneously projecting his own sense of isolation and alienation by the Church onto the gay porn industry.
In those secret meetings we discussed why it was OK for our straight brothers to make crude jokes about women during dinner while we could not discuss ex-boyfriends or what it meant to be healthy, chaste gay man. Our callings we opined were from God irrespective of our sexual orientation.

After nine trials spanning 12 years St Joseph's teacher Brother John Maguire faces sentencing for child sex offences
After nine separate trials spanning 12 years, Brother John Dennis Maguire was used to being in a courtroom.
But when the 71-year-old priest sat in the dock on Friday it was the first time he had faced the prospect of being sentenced for a crime.
From 1978 to the mid-1980s, Maguire was a teacher and dorm master at St Joseph's College in Hunters Hill, an exclusive Catholic school run by the Marist Brothers.
In 2002, he was charged with multiple sexual offences in relation to several students at the school, with the complainants alleging that he would target boys who were homesick – comforting them and then sexually assaulting them.
Maguire pleaded not guilty to the charges and his lawyers successfully applied for each of the allegations to be heard separately.

Don’t let S.F. Archbishop Salvatore
Cordileone’s charm fool you
CALIFORNIASan Francisco Chronicle
By C.W. Nevius
February 25, 2015
This week, San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone met with The Chronicle’s editorial board. He’s charming, humorous and engaging.
He’s also dead wrong.
The controversy stems from his proposed changes in the collective bargaining agreement with teachers in archdiocese high schools that would designate them as “ministers.” In addition, “clarifications” to school handbooks would emphasize that employees would have to follow the teachings of the church, leading some parents and teachers to call the additions morality clauses because they involve things like same-sex relationships and abortion.
Cordileone may have reconciled his personal beliefs — saying he would allow gay students at archdiocese schools but adamantly opposes the right of same-sex couples to marry — but many of the rest of us are still shaking our heads.
Cordileone made every effort to minimize the controversy, but his explanations were difficult to follow at best.
Take his statement: “To call an act gravely evil does not mean that the person who does the act is an evil person.”
That may be clear to him, but I don’t get it. Among the “evil” activities he’s talking about are homosexuality, same-sex marriage and even in-vitro fertilization. It’s the kind of chilling distinction that puts everyone on edge.
Reporters Lift Curtain on Pope
Francis’ Veto of Hillary Clinton’s Pill
UNITED STATESChristian Catholicism
Jerry Slevin
* Doggedly determined reporters following Toto’s example at last peeled back on Monday (1/19/15) the Papal Wizard’s curtain. They got the pope unexpectedly to digress about contraception “pills” and even Catholic “rabbits”, as discussed below. Please see also the superb analysis, “The Catholic church’s complicity in {former Manila street child} Glyzelle Palomar’s suffering“,
by Yale educated and prophetic theologian, Jamie Manson, here:
* [National Catholic Reporter]
* and the insightful discussion, “Pope Francis, Breeding Bunnies and Ideological Colonization“, by a leading expert on Catholics and contraception, Patricia Miller, here:
* [Religion Dispatches]
* Pope Francis evidently is gearing up for this summer’s papal push into US presidential politics and likely against family planning advocate, Hillary Clinton. He was untypically revealing about his current plans in responses to questions in his press conference on the flight back from the Philippines. He earlier had been more circumspect publicly after frightened cardinals, who worried about criminal prosecutions and financial bankruptcy, made him pope two years ago , as I recently discussed here Pope, M.L. King & a Dream About Street Children
* President Obama’s likely successor after next year’s US election, Hillary Clinton, has a long history of standing up to the Vatican, especially on the “pill” and contraception, as I recently discussed here Hillary Clinton vs. Pope Francis in 2015 ? Francis made it inevitable, with his “Catholics are not Rabbits” spin, that family planning will be a top issue in the upcoming US presidential elections. Francis and his subordinate US bishops are already following the latest mistaken right wing Republican line that “contraception” equals “abortion”.

Just 16% of Belfast Catholics go to
Mass, says diocese survey
NORTHERN IRELANDBelfast Telegraph
BY JOANNE SWEENEY – 26 FEBRUARY 2015
Only one in five Catholics is regularly attending Sunday Mass in the Down and Connor Diocese, a new report has revealed.
And attendance at Mass in the greater Belfast area has been recorded as low as 16% of all Catholics who live in the area, according to the diocesan report.
Figures from an audit taken last year in Down and Connor, the second largest diocese on the island, showed that based on the 2011 census figures of a potential 356,585 Catholics, only 72,818 were recorded as attending weekly Mass over a two-week period when the count was taken.
The findings also show a situation of an aging church population against the backdrop of an aging priest population.
There were 27 priests aged under 50 in 2014 and 54 aged between 51 and 65, while a third of all Mass-goers were aged 61 and over.

God's Bankers
By Gerald Posner
Simon & Schuster.
732 pp. $30.
Reviewed by
Michael D. Schaffer
The New Testament is pretty clear on the incompatibility of earthly riches and the Kingdom of Heaven. But if Gerald Posner is right, a lot of people involved with Vatican finances over the years have skipped those passages.
Posner - lawyer, journalist, and Pulitzer-winning author of 11 books - reviews the church's long, complicated history with money, but his main focus is modern times.
His primary aim is the Institute for the Works of Religion, known as the Vatican Bank or IOR, its Italian acronym. Founded in 1942, IOR is supposed to serve the religious mission of the church, but in Posner's telling, it has also served as an offshore bank, tainted by association with shady characters whose list of sins includes money laundering, tax evasion, fraud, even murder.
Pope Pius XII created IOR at the suggestion of the Vatican's financial consultant, Bernardino Nogara, whose investment wizardry carried the Vatican through the Great Depression. Posner spends a lot of time on Pius XII, who was criticized for not taking a stronger stand against Nazi atrocities. "In World War II, Pius XII's silence helped protect a complex web of interlocking business interests with the Third Reich that yielded significant profits for the Vatican," Posner writes. He uses the word likely to describe this scenario. One hopes he is wrong.
Later on, the bank was tarred by association with rogue financiers Roberto Calvi and Michele Sindona and compromised by the ineptitude of Archbishop Paul Marcinkus, a high-ranking American official at the Vatican. In Posner's telling, Marcinkus, who ran IOR from 1971 to 1989, got the job because Pope Paul VI liked him, and kept it thanks to the gratitude of Pope John Paul II, after Marcinkus sent $5 million in 1978 to the Archdiocese of Philadelphia to help clean up a scandal at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa near Doylestown.

It's high time for Pope Francis to
open the Vatican Bank's files
UNITED STATESLos Angeles Times
Op-Ed
By GERALD POSNER
Pope Francis, who has worked hard to carve out a reputation as a reformer, is facing one of his most daunting challenges when it comes to the Catholic Church's finances, particularly the Vatican Bank. Since World War II — when the bank was created as the equivalent of the Federal Reserve combined with a commercial bank — it has operated with few checks and balances. Over the decades, it has become embroiled in seemingly endless scandals that include questions about wartime profiteering with Nazis, gigantic business schemes and political slush funds.
The Vatican did not even have a law against money laundering until 2011. Some previous popes — including Paul VI in the 1960s and John Paul II in the 1980s — had promised upon their election to tame the church's unruly finances. But they were inevitably defeated by entrenched powers inside Vatican City who pretended to embrace reforms while working surreptitiously to maintain the bank's outlier status. The issue facing the church is whether Francis, riding a remarkable wave of international popularity and goodwill, can accomplish what frustrated his predecessors.
Since becoming pope in 2013, Francis has energetically tried to remake the bank into a transparent and accountable institution through decrees, key appointments and an overall reorganization. By tapping outsiders for important management and enforcement roles at the Vatican Bank, he has started to loosen the grip of old-guard clerics, mostly Italian, who have long wielded the city-state's money power. And Francis' appointment of a respected cardinal, George Pell of Australia, to oversee a new uber financial department, has received a mostly positive reception from Vatican watchers.
But has Francis done enough? Will the Vatican Bank move forward as a compliant member of the international financial community, or will it remain the equivalent of an offshore bank in the heart of Rome? It is too early to tell, in part because no one is certain how long Francis will be pope.

Pope Francis the Jesuit Master of Deceits has announced, "Now in September, God willing, I will canonize Junipero Serra in the United States. He was the evangelizer of the West in the United States." First of all, it is not “God willing” but the “Devil willing” aka “Vatican Mammon Beast willing” aka “Opus Dei Beast PR Deceits Team willing” aka “Jesuits Masters of Deceits willing”.
