Sorry, Pope. NOT GOOD ENOUGH!
4,392 priests had been accused of abusing 10,667 individuals between 1950 and 2002. That’s a lot of homosexual child molesters. I mean, A LOT OF CHILD MOLESTERS! ALMOST FOUR THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED HOMOSEXUAL CHILD MOLESTERS AND ALL OF THEM CATHOLIC PRIESTS!!!
The Pope says that “It is a great suffering for the church in the United States and for the church in general and for me personally that this could happen,” he said. “As I read the histories of those victims it is difficult for me to understand how it was possible that priests betrayed in this way. Their mission was to give healing, to give the love of God to these children. We are deeply ashamed and we will do what is possible that this cannot happen in the future.”
Apparently drawing a distinction between priests with homosexual tendencies and those inclined to molest children, the Pontiff said “I would not speak at this moment about homosexuality, but pedophilia which is another thing. And we would absolutely exclude pedophiles from the sacred ministry.”
“Who is guilty of pedophilia cannot be a priest,” he added.
Okay. Now let’s rip that to pieces. I’m waiting for a few words of apology for the children. Remember the children? I don’t care about the “great suffering of the Church”. Screw the church, the church has been humiliated as it should have been. The church has paid out money to the victims until their big plaster images of Christ got nosebleeds. As they should have. To Hell with the church! No apology to the victims? Only a whine about how the church has suffered?
Oh no. This won’t do.
Then he goes on to separate homosexuality from the molesting of boys by men. You can’t. Most homosexual men like pubescent boys. They just do. Homosexual men are almost a different breed of human altogether, and any straight person who doesn’t know about this should go hang out in a queer bar, or better yet, one of their parties, for a few hours and get an education. The way they act when they’re all together and feel safe is vastly different than the way they behave in public, because that behavior would never be tolerated in public.
My wife and I were invited to a fruit salad Halloween party once but we didn’t stay long. Those guys were constantly grabbing each others butts and privates and acting like they were insane, even without all the sex play. Prancing like demented women or playing the Super Macho Man… It was something to behold.
So the Pope doesn’t want to speak out about homosexual priests. He says “Who is guilty of pedophilia cannot be a priest”. That’s right. Wait until they’re found guilty, first. Don’t throw them out just because they’re queer because they’re damn near ALL queer.
This is the problem. Demanding that the priests be celibate when there’s zero evidence that Jesus was, in fact there’s a lot of evidence that he was NOT, has made the Catholic church a haven for homosexuals. The only way to prevent future abuse of children is to allow priests to marry. In this way, we won’t have a bunch of queers counseling our mostly straight children and setting them up for abuse, and the priesthood can normalize.
The Pope doesn’t want to go anywhere near this issue. He knows that if he did, his evening tea would have an extra ingredient and that would be the end of him. He’s at the mercy of all those powerful homosexuals under him. The corruption of the Catholic church goes all the way to the top. Of the 19 bishops “credibly accused of abusing children,” none has lost his title, been publicly censured by the Vatican or referred for criminal prosecutions. The Pope has protected them instead.
Damn right he has. His own life would end if he did anything different. Pedophiles are not nice people.
But he could at least apologize and at the end of the day, at the end of his trip, he has never once said “I’m sorry”, or “I apologize”. The Pope is an equivocating asshole.
