CATHOLIC CHARITIES OF RICHMOND VA
FACILITATES BABY-MURDER
This is mind-boggling! If you haven’t yet read the Washington
Times article, read it now. These people haven’t the first clue
regarding true charity. Whatever else it
means, it certainly doesn’t mean murdering babies – or maybe they leaned
theology from the Robert Lynch School of Cafeteria Catholicism (see article
below). Now doesn’t something seem
strangely backwards here? Usually, it’s
the secular government that is trying to force some anti-life measures on the
populace, and the Catholic hierarchy makes protest for the sake of life. Maybe it’s a pathetically weak protest, but
at least it’s some stance for life. Not
this time! Now it’s a Catholic agency
that aided and abetted murder, and the civil government is taking them to task
for so doing! Well, at least the State
of Virginia
got something right. Now why did it take
the State of Virginia
to raise the red flag? Where, oh where,
was the supervision within the ranks of that Catholic Charity office?
This abortion happened in
January. So why are we learning of this
five months later? Well, blame it on
USCCB cover-up and stonewalling. You’d
think that they would have learned their lessons after the sex-abuse cover-up
fiasco. Sadly, such is not the
case. Here’s more. We’ll keep this website updated as we learn
more – and there most likely is more still hidden under rocks!
By the way – despite all the
coverage in secular papers and internet, there was nary a peep about this
matter in the Catholic Standard. They
were too busy sobbing over the death of Tim Russert
to be concerned about the murder of a baby at the hands of a Catholic
agency. We suspect that next week,
they’ll be embarrassed into some mention of it.
Of course, the coverage will basically say, “Hey, this is just a minor
glitch, but not to worry! We got things
well under control! Smiley-smiley!”
Update as of June 30, 2008 – Again we have the Washington Times to thank for digging for the truth here. No doubt the Catholic Standard will continue
to outshine the Three Monkeys on this one.
It appears that Archbishop DiLorenzo knew of
the abortion while it was in its planning phases – and yet did NOTHING to stop it!!! Ostensibly he was told “there was nothing he
could do to stop it.” Are you as aghast
as we are? This is sheer, utter nonsense! Are any of you employers? If any of you was told that one of your
employees, in your name, was going to commit a heinous crime but “there was
nothing you could do to stop it,” would you just shrug your shoulders and leave
it at that? Of course not! Does this bishop have any semblance of a
spine? We all know there was plenty he
could have done. For heaven’s sake –
he’s the bishop! Notify the
police! Fire the perpetrators on the
spot – and excommunicate them as well!
We understand that the
archbishop is “apologetic”. Well, whoopdi-doo!!
Apologies don’t cut it here!
First he had pre-knowledge of a planned abortion, and he made no attempt
to stop it. Then he covered it up for
five months. The local CCR director
likewise had this foreknowledge, but she didn’t try to stop it. Were they really so helpless to act – or are
there yet more sordid details to learn?
We fear the latter may well be the case.
The CCR is under Federal investigation for using Federal funds in
violation of Virginia
consent laws. We hope and pray that the
civil authorities are relentless in their pursuit of the truth; Lord knows the
local hierarchy certainly isn’t. Rather
they’re hell-bent on cover-up – well, maybe not now, since the cat is out of
the bag. We hope that Virginia and
Federal officials proceed to criminally prosecute the CCR fiend who signed that
consent form, and any other CCR and/or archdiocesan
official who had anything to do with that coverup –
including Archbishop DiLorenzo!
It still boggles our minds! A baby was murdered under Catholic auspices
in Richmond –
with prior knowledge of the local bishop, who uttered not the slightest
protest. Why? Forgive us for NOT believing that lame
excuse! Let the investigation proceed!
Update as of July 3 We read from the Catholic News Agency
that the bishop did forbid the abortion.
However, it still appears that he was told there was nothing he could do
about it. Poppycock!! He remained silent in the face of
murder! As our colleagues, Les Femmes,
put it, if he were told that a major donor was pulling the plug and there “was
nothing he could do about it”, the good bishop would not take that sitting
down! Read their take here by clicking
this link, then clicking eletters. This is
not the shepherd that the Church needs, for this shepherd literally stood by
and sucked his thumb while a baby in his charge was taken to be murdered. Go to the bottom of that site to get contact
information to ask for Bishop DiLorenzo’s removal.
bishop ROBERT LYNCH OF sT PETERSBURG FL
PRESSES CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST A PRO-LIFE ACTIVIST If this bishop’s name sounds harshly familiar, it is with good
reason. Remember the murder of Terri Shiavo. It happened
within the diocese of St Petersburg. Did the local bishop raise his voice on her
behalf? Au contraire! He
actually gave approval for Michael Shiavo to commence
with the murder – in writing (click here
for the unbelievable tome). He forbade
his priests to visit her or the Schindler family. He left the country while she was dying
during Holy Week; no bishop can leave his diocese during Holy Week, by Canon
Law. He wouldn't let any service for
Terri be conducted in any church; HOWEVER - he did allow Michael to subsequently
marry his shack-up girl friend in a Church.
One would think, after reading this, that
anything would go, as far as this bishop is concerned. So why is he dragging a pro-life activist
into court? What nefarious act did this
pro-lifer commit that would cause Bishop Lynch, who winks at murders, to go
ballistic? Sit down, take deep breaths,
for this news will surely shock you! The
pro-lifer had (Get ready for it! Drum
roll, please!) left flyers on cars in a
church parking lot! Oh, the horror
of it all! Go here
to get more detail; at that site is a link to that most dastardly of
flyers! Oh, that darned First Amendment
that makes possible that sort of literature, and this sort of website, too, for
that matter!
We have issued to Bishop Lynch a public
letter. Read it here. At
the other blog spot is a list of contact information for the bishop. Please contact him yourselves and don’t let
him get away with harassing a Catholic pro-life activist.
USCCB
GIVES CONDOM APPROVAL We need not rehash the story as related by Lifesite News. Go here for
it. We will, however, emphasize that the
Catholic Relief Services is a major culprit in this blunder. History lesson time! Who’s on the board of directors? Among other people, Cardinal McCarrick! Go to the
“McCarrick Watch” page to see one of his statements
about condoms. Coincidence?
WOMAN-PRIEST
WANNABEES….. In the Archdiocese of St Louis MO, two women
conducted a ceremony by which they now consider themselves ordained. It occurred on November 11th, the
afternoon of the date of this entry.
Earlier, Archbishop Raymond Burke, on the archdiocesan website made clear the Church’s teaching on
this matter. He also stated regret at
the excommunication that these women would incur and voiced concern for the
eternal salvation of these women. It
certainly sounds like St Louis
has a true bishop. It is too early at
the time of this writing to know the final outcome; we trust that this
archbishop will follow through, and we join him in praying for the repentance
of these women.
Update:
the good archbishop did follow through.
We share his regret that this action had to be taken, but out of concern
for their souls, he did not back down. Here
is the declaration of excommunication, as promulgated in the archdiocesan
newspaper of St Louis.
Connecticut bishops approve abortifacients in
catholic hospitals On September 27, 2007, the four Connecticut Catholic
bishops committed serious dereliction of duty by capitulating to the culture of
death. They have acquiesced to the CT
state legislature’s pressure and are now allowing Catholic hospitals to
administer the abortion-causing poison called Plan B to rape victims. Read the treacherous statement here. Note some of
the flawed logic. The bishops
acknowledge that the law is flawed – but they’ll go along to get along! They acknowledge doubt as to how Plan B
works; thus they acknowledge that it most likely causes abortions (in fact,
there is not doubt). So why do they deem
its usage acceptable? Father Euteneuer
of Human Life International offers an excellent analysis here.
We will post updates to this
section as they occur. Meanwhile, visit this page to get contact information for the four Connecticut
bishops. Let them know your displeasure. Please do note that the bishop of Bridgeport, William Lori, was an auxiliary bishop in the Washington archdiocese
under Cardinal Hickey.
bLASPHEMY
AND SACRILIGE IN sAN fRANCISCO
ARE NOTHING NEW, BUT …… I
never thought I’d actually see this kind of in-your-face desecration of the
Holy Eucharist by the hands of a bishop!
On October 7, 2007, Archbishop George Niederaur
(of San Francisco)
celebrated Mass at Most Holy Redeemer Church.
The church is located in the Castro area of SF, an area notorious as a
gay enclave. The “Sisters of Perpetual
Indulgence” is an organization of mostly gay men who promote the gay lifestyle
and who make it a point to lampoon Catholic religious sisters. Most Holy Redeemer, as a parish, has given
aid and comfort to these perverts, going so far as to let them use their church
hall for their fundraisers. Click here
to get more detail of the October Mass; on that site you can watch a video of the
sacrilege. Watch it closely. You can see that the bishop knows what he is
doing, since he actually has a brief exchange with the first perpetrator. Then read his pathetic excuse of an
apology. It’s very well and good to
acknowledge the insult to religious sisters, but he utters not one peep about
the sin of sodomy.

THANK
ARCHBISHOP o’BRIEN! On November 8th, Archbishop O’Brien (of Baltimore) ordered the resignation of Father Martin, a
south Baltimore
priest, who had invited a female Episcopal priestess-imposter to celebrate a
funeral Mass with him. Apparently, this
wasn’t Father Martin’s first foray into the world of avant-garde as far as Mass
rubrics goes. However, it was his first
under the watch of Archbishop O’Brien – and apparently, his last. As one can imagine, liberals both inside and
outside the Church are kvetching and waxing indignant about O’Brien’s
“intolerance”. Won’t you take a moment
to make known to the archbishop your appreciation of his courage and zeal? Drop an email to him at archbishop@archbalt.org.
