We saw last week how Cardinal Cupich did the pope's bidding as he stopped the USCCB from taking steps to address the episcopal sex abuse scandals. It was clear that both he and Cardinal Wuerl had no intention of addressing the matter in any meaningful fashion.
Neither does the pope. Else, how does one explain the pope's appointment of Cupich to head up this Vatican sex abuse summit that is slated to happen next February? It will be a sham, just as has been all these synods and meetings that have happened in the past few years. I've no doubt that even now Cupich, Wuerl, Tobin and others are working on "synod documents" that will be completely fabricated long before the summit attendees arrive in Rome. The summit will be just another dog-and-pony show to pretend that the Vatican is all into "collegiality" and that they are "listening" and "accompanying" when nothing else could be further from the truth.
So what might this "summit summary" have to say? Did Cardinal Cupich give us a hint with his suggestion that some clergy sex offenses were "consensual" and should be treated differently. And who can forget his dismissive "rabbit hole" quip? Might this be a ploy to normalize sodomy in the priesthood and elsewhere? I suspect the outcome of this summit has already been determined and that it will accomplish diddly-squat when it comes to eradicating the filth from the clergy.
Maybe They Can Have a Bake Sale?

Yes, it is becoming easier all the time to see through them, as they progress toward 'total transparency'.
ReplyDeleteYou are 100% correct on this....it will amount to 100% of NOTHING. That's the general idea you know. All talk, no action. Everything status quo. The destruction of the institutional Church will march ahead unimpeded....as planned. At the end of the day, however, Bergoglio & cohorts will not win this war. God will win, and they will loose. I'm hoping and praying that Catholics are waking up to join the 'little army of the Blessed Mother' in fighting this war. Staying faithful until the end and fighting in every way that we can is crucial. I don't think we're at the end yet....I think there is ugliness we can't even begin to imagine ahead of us. Bergoglio, Cardinal 'Rabbit Hole' and the rest are in for a VERY VERY rude awakening.
ReplyDeleteMary, Help of Christians, pray for us!
This appointment is no doubt a reward for him not defrocking two of his sodomitical priests caught in the act in a parked car in broad daylight near a playground. Only in Francis PervChurch!
