The accusation comes as Francis tours Ireland, playing the old humble card yet again as he begs for forgiveness for decades of Catholic abuse, not just in America but in Eire, Chile and... well, if you're part of the Gay Mafia, the world's your playground.
Archbishop Viganò stated his case in an 11-page letter published today. In his testimony, the prelate said he told the pope, "Holy Father, I don't know if you know Cardinal McCarrick, but if you ask the Congregation of Bishops, there is a dossier this thick about him. He corrupted generations of seminarians and priests and Pope Benedict ordered him to withdraw to a life of prayer and penance."
Abp Viganò goes on to say that he was surprised, shortly thereafter, to see that instead of being sent into seclusion, the cardinal molester began travelling on missions on behalf of the Church. He reportedly went to China, and was known to have been one of the Vatican's intermediaries involved in talks between the US and Cuba talks in 2014.
A cascade of child sex abuse scandals dating back to 2002 have shaken the foundations of the Roman Catholic Church. The latest revelations came just this month in Pennsylvania, where a grand jury report found that 300 priests had abused more than 1000 children, mostly boys, in six dioceses for a period of some seven decades.
Abp Viganò's "Testimony" is highly substantiated and charges other important cardinals, from Pietro Parolin (aka "Peter the Roman") to Sean Patrick O'Malley to Óscar Andrés Rodríguez Maradiaga. It is absolutely a must-read, and you can access it, in its entirety, by clicking here.
Archbishop Viganò's letter railed against "homosexual networks present in the Church", with the word "homosexual" appearing 18 times.

Catholics are, almost in spite of themselves, beginning to see that "the Humblest Pope of All" is running a huge fraud. He keeps saying "Zero Tolerance" for paedophile crimes by his Cardinals, Bishops, and Priests, but the real policy is "100 per Cent Tolerance". All over the world, the "leaders of the church" are being outed for their complicity in child abuse and homosexual crimes. No wonder nobody's listening to them any more.
ReplyDeleteFrom an e-blast by the Remnant's Michael J. Matt: So serious is the papal cover-up that for the good of the Church and protection of the faithful, Archbishop Vigano has called on Pope Francis to resign. God is intervening on behalf of His Church. We cannot allow the most corrupt pontificate to bury this devastating list of charges that reach all the way to the chair of St. Peter itself.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, as this is an unprecedented moment in papal history, perhaps the unprecedented step of recalling Pope Benedict XVI to the Chair of St. Peter should also be considered sooner rather than later, before this crisis gets any more out-of-control than it already is. May God save His Church, and may he bless and protect the most courageous shepherd in the Church today -- Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò.
