"How I warned and
warned that satan would enter into the highest realms of the hierarchy in Rome.
The Third Secret, My child, is that satan would enter into My Son's Church."
- Our Lady of the Roses, May 13, 1978
Bishop Wilton Gregory, Archbishop of
Atlanta, has spoken out against the Cardinal McCarrick scandal and lamented that
it has brought a "cloud
of shame" over the Church.
He complained that "Our people are disappointed with
bishops in general who seemingly cannot or will not act decisively to heal this
festering wound."
Did Bishop Gregory act decisively, when he had the
opportunity?
Has he publicly identified this evil as a
homosexual crisis in the priesthood?
No, and that is part of his continuing smokescreen.
Bishop Gregory is hoping that Catholics have a short
memory. This Catholic does not.
Rewind to 2002, the year the sex-abuse scandal broke wide
open. So horrendous was the evil that one Catholic magazine called it "the
scandal of the millennium."
Tim Russert interviewed Bishop
Wilton Gregory on June 16, 2002 on the TV show, "Meet the Press."
Bishop Wilton Gregory, head
of the
Bishop
Gregory replied: “I think we have some
who are. I think we have men who have embraced the promise of celibacy
irregardless of their sexual orientation, and they have lived it with
integrity.” [note: 90% of the sexual abuse cases were by homosexual priests
who BROKE their vow of celibacy].
Tim Russert then asked Bishop
Gregory: “The Pope’s spokesman,
Navarro-Valls, had this to say: ‘Pope John Paul’s spokesman, Joaquin
Navarro-Valls, questioned whether ordination of gays were even valid. ‘People
with these inclinations just cannot be ordained.’ [New York Times,
March 3, 2002] Do you agree with that?”
Bishop Gregory’s response:
“I believe that that statement was
perhaps more expansive than the tradition of the Church. It seems to me
that the Church has spoken about living a holy integral life in a much broader
context than that.”
Serpentine slick.
Witnessing this response by Bishop Wilton Gregory was one of the most evil things I have ever witnessed in the Church. Tim Russert, a seasoned and professional journalist, had a pained expression on his face after hearing Bishop Gregory's response. He too, must have sensed something sinister. Tim Russert could easily size up people, and he wasn't liking what he saw.
Tim Russert continued:
“But the fact that 90% of the abused
children in the Church were teenage boys. Does that trouble you that there may
be a disproportionate level of behavior by homosexual men towards teenage boys?”
Bishop Gregory responded:
“It certainly troubles me. But the fact
that any of our kids are harmed troubles me. The percentages are startling, but
the total issue is a cause for great sorrow.”
Bishop Wilton Gregory had
denied Church teaching, deflecting away from the core evil of the crisis
(homosexual predation), and enabled the homosexual crisis in the U.S. Catholic
priesthood to continue.
He made no apologies that he and many bishops were responsible for the sex-abuse crisis, because they had rejected the Church's law published in 1961 which forbade ordination of homosexual men.
More than sixteen years later, Bishop Gregory continues to promote homosexual priests. LifeSiteNews reported on August 14, 2018 that "Atlanta’s Catholic archbishop [Wilton Gregory] has appointed a pro-gay priest who heads a gay-affirming parish to be diocesan spiritual director for victims of sexual abuse by clergy, LifeSiteNews has learned."
"This hapless bench of bishops" - Bishop Fabian
Bruskewitz
When the
He was thoroughly disgusted with the lot of them.
In a June 15, 2002 email post by
National Review Online, Rod Dreher
reported: This
"hapless bench of bishops," as Bp.
Bruskewitz called them tonight, couldn't even agree that the role of dissent and
homosexuality in this catastrophe was worth studying. The conclusion is obvious:
if reform is to come, it's not going to come from the bishops.
Fast forward sixteen years.
Truly, reform did not come then, and will not come now,
from this group of cowardly
Church teaching against
ordaining homosexuals
Let's
review what the Church and recent Popes have stated regarding homosexuals
entering the priesthood. In addition to the numerous citations in the holy Bible
against the evil of homosexuality, historical records show that
as far back and 810 A.D., the Catholic Church has forbidden the ordination
of homosexuals.
1961
A
1961 Vatican document
clearly stated, "Advancement to
religious vows and ordination should be barred to those who are afflicted with
evil tendencies to homosexuality or pederasty, since for them the common life
and the priestly ministry would constitute serious dangers."
Pope St.
John Paul II
The
National Catholic Register reported
on a September 5, 2002 speech given by Pope John Paul II, who stated that
sexually disordered men are not appropriate candidates for the priesthood:
"It would be lamentable if,
out of a misunderstood tolerance, they ordained young men who are immature or
have obvious signs of affective
deviations that, as is sadly known, could cause serious anomalies in the
consciences of the faithful, with evident damage for the whole Church," the Holy
Father said.
The term
"affective deviations" is used by priestly formators to describe individuals
with disordered sexual orientations - such as homosexuality or ongoing
heterosexual activity - that are incompatible with priestly celibacy.
Cardinal
Jorge Medina Estévez
The December 8-14, 2002 issue of
the National Catholic Register
reported:
Ordaining homosexuals "is
absolutely inadvisable and imprudent and, from a pastoral point of view, very
risky," wrote the
Cardinal Jorge
Medina Estévez, responding to a letter from a bishop, added that
"a person who is homosexual or has
homosexual tendencies is not, therefore, suitable to receive the sacrament of
sacred orders."
The
Congregation (Vatican Department) for Divine Worship and the Sacraments
published Cardinal Medina's letter in December in the congregation's bulletin.
It was written last May to an unnamed bishop who had inquired about the
propriety of ordaining homosexual men.
Pope
Benedict
Pope Benedict repeated the Church's teaching, that homosexuals are not to be
ordained.
Pope
Francis
Even
Pope Francis has warned bishops not to ordain homosexual men.
Our Lady's intervention will destroy this network of
evil bishops
Our Lady is our heavenly Mother and Queen. She is without
sin, so She cannot lie to us, but will only tell us the truth. She truly loves
us and cares for us, and will obtain what is truly good for us.
So much cannot be said for many of our bishops. All are sinners,
all have fallen short of the glory of God. Many have intentionally lied to their
own people and caused incalculable harm.
The REAL Third Secret of Fatima, given to the world by Our
Lady at Fatima, was that satan would enter the highest realms of the Catholic
hierarchy: "How I warned and warned that
satan would enter into the highest realms of the hierarchy in
Satan has entered and now has great control over the
highest realms of the
Catholic hierarchy.
The bishops and cardinals have sought to
suppress this truth,
as it would expose their evil network.
Fr. Joaquin
Alonso, the official archivist of
Who can deny that this has not come to pass?
We must pray the Rosary daily, and ask Our Lady's intercession to expose and remove the evil bishops and cardinals in our midst.
"My children, long ago I warned you from Fatima, I warned you through many voice-boxes throughout your world that the time will come when you will embark upon a stormy sea, and it shall be bishop against bishop and cardinal against cardinal, and satan shall set himself in your midst." - Our Lady of the Roses, November 20, 1976
"I gave Lucy the Revelation as a temporary secret—as I revealed [the Third Secret] to you on two occasions. Make a concerted effort to bring its entirety to Our children on earth. The hierarchy have not listened to My counsel—thirty-two years lost in indecision and fear of exposure. The Faith is shattered for many." - Our Lady of the Roses, April 29, 1992
