Catholic Relief Services - Ingredient In The Depopulation Bomb

Below I'll post a Vortex video that details some results from the contraceptive, anti-life culture.  These are results that are now apparent; it seems that some countries are beginning to wake up, but will it be too little, too late?  Keep in mind the previous post that shows how Africans and other poorer people are being targeted for elimination.

Aiding and abetting this targeted genocide is none other than Catholic Relief Services.  Long-time readers of this blog will recall that we've shown the spotlight on their distribution of contraceptive and abortifacient items.  Read here for the archive.  This is no mere coincidence.  Catholic Relief Services is heavily funded by George Soros; the other main funder is USAID.  Catholic Relief Services, at the very least, is allowing itself to be used as tools for the furtherance of eugenics.  However, I would not be the least bit surprised if the upper-level management isn't fully aware and approving of those activities.  Consider the way that Ken Hackett was rewarded by Obama for his ten-year term as director of CRS.

We can whine all we want about the nefarious forces outside the Church.  But if we're going to be successful in any manner, we must expunge the culture of death from within Mother Church.  The abolition of the entire United States Conference of Catholic Bishops should be one of the first steps in that purification.

Now the video..

Baltimore CCHD Directly Funding Promotion Of Contraception And Abortifacients

On the website of the Baltimore CCHD is a list of its grantees for 2013.  Notice under "local grants" that $13,000.00 of donations bilked from Baltimore-area Catholics went to an organization called New Lens.  They appear to be a youth-targeting community-organizing bunch that specializes in the usage of new media to sell its philosophies and wares.

A look at New Lens' "projects" sub-page gives more detail regarding the misuse of Catholic donations.  They work with "a wide variety of organizations and topics".  These organizations include Planned Parenthood and ACLU.  Using their new media training, proteges of New Lens have produced a video about "making good contraceptive choices for the Health Department of Baltimore City".  Now ponder this, if you will.  Catholic donations are being used to shill for contraceptives and abortifacients, and this promotion is then being donated to the City of Baltimore?  It's bad enough that the City of Baltimore would do this deed on their own, but now Catholics are donating to this over and beyond their tax dollars?  Ladies and gentlemen, how many things are so wrong with this picture???  Anyway, here's the results of Baltimore Catholic dollars - promoting contraception and abortifacients.  Now here's another video, a joint effort of New Lens and Planned Parenthood, called "Birds and the Bees".  If you do watch this, pay attention to the girls on the swings.  There is an outright lie regarding Plan B; it acts by inhibiting implantation of the newly-conceived child into the uterus.  That is an early abortion.  The video ends by thanking Planned Parenthood of Maryland and referring additional questions to them.  So Catholic dollars are purchasing free advertising for the death peddlers known as Planned Parenthood.

UPDATE - Michael Hichborn of American Life League has placed much of the New Lens information into a Power Point presentation.  The pdf of that is located here.  Please download it for your reference.

I understand that the Archdiocese of Baltimore will hold its in-pew collection for the CCHD during the weekend of Nov 23-24.  Might it not be time to say #no2cchd?

ADDENDUM
I forgot to provide some historical perspective.  This is NOT the first time that Baltimore CCHD directly funded immoral activity.  Four years ago this blog reported that Baltimore CCHD funded a local ACORN office that James O'Keefe targeted in one of his stings as ACORN staffers advised him on "best practices" for running a brothel filled with underage girls.  The post is here.

With this in mind, we cannot reasonably ascribe the New Lens funding to inadvertent error.  Think of it; I and others easily exposed New Lens as peddling instruments of baby-murder.  A little "due diligence" on the part of Baltimore CCHD staff would have revealed the same information.  Do we really believe that people with any modicum of intelligence and integrity would not have learned from their lessons of four years ago?   In all honesty, I believe that Baltimore CCHD directors are completely complicit in funding grave moral evil.  Do we have all elements necessary for mortal sin to have been committed - in the name of the Archdiocese of Baltimore?

Baltimore Catholics, please boycott your CCHD collection.  Say #no2cchd.

Dolan's Mess Just Got A Whole Lot Messier

Last week Judie Brown of American Life League wrote of Cardinal Dolan's Mess.  At the time it described quite well the abysmal joke that Cardinal Dolan is making of his role and responsiblity as Archbishop of New York.  It appears that Cardinal Dolan was beginning to exhibit just the tiniest signs of a backbone when he said that he and Governor Cuomo "have very grave differences".  He was referring to Cuomo's rabid pushes for the legitimization of perversion and the promotion of the murders of babies.

However, the Cardinal hurried to "correct himself", lest he be seen as dissing Cuomo, no doubt.  Through his spokesman Joseph Zwilling, it was made clear - crystal clear, mind you! - that "the cardinal, who is the archbishop of New York, ‘would not, and did not, suggest the governor might not be a Catholic in good standing going forward."  Well, why not????  Precisely because Cdl Dolan is the archbishop of New York he should have loudly proclaimed that Cuomo is not in good standing!  So much for any hint of backbone.

But it gets worse!  Much worse!  In the first paragraph, I stated that Mrs. Brown described the mess well at the time.  That was last week, this is now.

Comes now the announcement that the Archdiocese of New York, through insurance plans of various Catholic institutions within its borders, provides payment for contraceptives and even abortion.  These particular institutions are offering it for employees who are members of the SEIU (we've heard of them before, haven't we?).   It is true that this arrangement predated Cardinal Dolan's ascendancy to that see - but given today's political climate, why is he allowing that to continue?  That's utterly inexcusable

Again we hear from Zwilling, "we provide the services under protest".  Under protest!!!  (An important aside - these are occasions of mortal sin, not "services") So that just clears their consciences and restores their credibility, right???   NOT!!!!  Can anyone imagine St. John Fisher acquiescing to King Henry VIII's demands "under protest"?  St John Fisher and all martyr-bishops, pray for your timid brother bishops!

Charity In Truth

The Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace (D&P) is roughly equivalent to the Catholic Campaign for Human Development.  Like its American counterpart, D&P has been caught diverting the donations of Canadian Catholics to organizations working to facilitate baby-killing, perversions of sexuality, etc.

LifeSiteNews, a major source of this blog's news, has launched a project called Charity in Truth.  Its website is http://charityintruth.ca/.  That organization is roughly analogous to the Reform CCHD Now Coalition (with which this blog is affiliated).  They are urging the Canadian bishops to bring D&P into conformity with Catholic teaching and until then, they are urging Canadian Catholics to boycott any D&P collection until it can be demonstrated that D&P has truly reformed.

I invite all readers - particularly Canadians - to examine that site closely and all other sites to which it links.  Join their efforts to make sure that Catholic donation dollars are not misappropriated any longer.

Voris Nails The Liberal Bishops Again - CRS Part Of Problem

In this Vortex, you'll hear more expose on the overly-chummy relationships between the progressive/atheist elements and the liberal bishops.  Note that at the 6:10 mark, Voris points to the "ever-growing scandal at the Catholic Relief Services" - more on that after the clip.  Click here if you can't see embedded video.


Last month I reported on a most serious CRS scandal, where CRS was caught giving $5.3 million to CARE, a group distributing contraception and abortifacients to women in developing countries and lobbying for abortion.  You'll notice John Rivera, communications director for CRS, commenting on my post.  In actuality, all he was doing was posting some standard talking points, one of them a misquote of John Haas.  Mr Haas himself refuted that.  Rivera tried the same trick on Michael Voris; happily it backfired big-time.

Naturally CRS has questionable leadership.  See this post from last year on their CEO.  Recall also that in 2005, while Terri Schiavo was being slowly murdered in Florida, the local bishop, Robert Lynch, refused to assist her and made clear his sympathies were with the murderous husband.  Bishop Lynch at the time was board president of the CRS.

Now we jump forward to present, because several other scandalous associations of CRS to pro-abortion groups have been uncovered.  The Redstate blog gives the details.

Catholic Relief Services is a dues-paying member of CORE, (to the tune of $3k/year) and several CRS officials co-chair CORE's HIV/AIDS "working group" and sit on the board of directors of CORE.  Over 50% of its budget funds "family planning" and contraception.

CRS forks over another $3k/year in dues to MEDICAM and is a member of that organization's steering committee.  CRS participated in MEDICAM's Position Paper for 2011.  Note that "NGO Best Practice Component 4" is "safe abortion".  The Redstate blog lists other occasions of CRS joining in MEDICAM's advocacy of abortion.  Please research them.

There are some who argue that the Catholic Relief Services is an organization that has stood above the scandals that have plagued CCHD and Catholic Charities.  Sadly such is not the case.  They too are funneling money (largely from donations of Catholics or from federal funding, that is, your tax dollars) to organizations that serve the culture of death.  Whereas the CCHD funds inimical organizations within the United States, it seems that the CRS is sending money to equally deadly organizations outside the US.
