As you have no doubt noticed, the culture that we grew up in was a great deal more tolerant than the current one. With its increased demand for tolerance, the culture has become less so. But the contradictions of the culture are not our main concern. No, what is profoundly disturbing is the contradiction and ambiguity in the Church itself. The relativism – or denial of absolute truth – that Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI warned us against in the culture seems to have found a perch in the clerical hierarchy. In some parts of Germany – depending on the local bishop’s opinion – Protestants are being welcomed to Communion. Never mind that Protestants reject what the Church means by Communion and that union with Christ is most fully found through the supernatural offices of the Church. And in other places, like Argentina and Malta, unrepentant adulterers are receiving Communion as long as they feel okay about it – and as long as their priests approve. So, some adulterers, the “good” ones, will be allowed to receive while others, the “bad adulterers,” will not. Yet both are guilty of the exact same transgression. So, what gives? When the Jewish leaders were disputing with Christ Catechism of the Catholic Church because they didn’t like what he said, he told them that knowing Him and keeping His word –the truth – would set them free. That annoyed them immensely and they Test your knowledge with the following quiz. quickly pointed out that they were already free men.

  • Vítimas De Pedofilia Na Igreja Divulgam Lista Negra De Papáveis Sociologia Enviado Por: [email protected] Postado Em:07/03/2013
    Disciplina - Sociologia - Vítimas de pedofilia na Igreja divulgam lista negra de papáveis Sociologia Enviado por: [email protected] Postado em:07/03/2013 Uma associação americana de vítimas de abusos sexuais por padres pedófilos publicou, nesta quarta-feira, uma lista negra de doze possíveis candidatos a Papa e exortou à Igreja Católica a levar a sério a proteção das crianças, a ajuda às vítimas e as denúncias de corrupção. "Queremos dizer aos prelados católicos que deixem de fingir que o pior já passou" sobre o escândalo de pedofilia dentro da Igreja, declarou David Clohessy, diretor da Rede de Sobreviventes de Abusados por Padres (Snap, na sigla em inglês). "Tragicamente, o pior com certeza ainda estar por vir", indicou Clohessy, ao acrescentar que a verdade dos abusos e encobrimentos "generalizados há muito tempo e profundamente arraigados ainda não chegou à superfície na maioria das nações". A organização citou uma dúzia de cardeais da Argentina, Austrália, Canadá, Estados Unidos, Gana, Honduras, Itália, México e República Tcheca acusados de proteger os padres pedófilos ou por realizar declarações defendendo os padres ou minimizando a situação. Todos eles são considerados candidatos a sucessão do Papa Bento XVI, muito criticado pela forma como conduziu os escândalos. A Snap também se opõe à eleição de qualquer membro da Cúria romana, a administração da Santa Sé. "Acreditamos que ninguém de dentro do Vaticano tem verdadeira vontade de 'limpar a casa' no Vaticano ou em outras partes", indicou Clohessy em um comunicado. "Promover um membro da Cúria desencorajaria as vítimas, as testemunhas, os denunciantes e seus defensores a relatar más condutas", ressaltou.

  • Clerical Pedophilia by Mexicans in Mexico and Other Countries 1944-2013
    Clerical Pedophilia by Mexicans in Mexico and Other Countries 1944-2013 Report by CSOs and Mexican Nationals to the Committee on the Rights of the Child _______________________________________________ December 2013 Executive Summary Importance of the Shadow Report for the Committee on the Rights of the Child. We regard the Holy See’s appearance before the Committee on the Rights of the Child as an historic opportunity to ensure that organizations such as those in the Holy See -State - Vatican - Catholic Church - which claim their superiority and privileges over local and even international authorities and do not accept any kind of formal responsibility, as a signatory state of the Convention and the subsequent Treaties, should be addressed as being responsible for thousands of cases of sexual abuse committed in many parts of the world, for many years, due precisely to their structural behavior of protection and the complicit cover-up of abusers. They should therefore be held accountable for the violation of articles in the Convention because of their contempt and systematic violation of the rights and higher interest of girls and their preference for covering-up perpetrators rather than protecting and safeguarding victims. This institutional behavior which involved all the levels of authority of the Organization, should be regarded as a STATE CRIME by the Committee on the Rights of the Child. This will help, first and foremost, to restore the dignity and fundamental rights to victims and even enable the organization represented by the Holy See and its authorities, national authorities and all of humanity, to ensure that this type of behavior will never again be repeated in our history, by arguing and claiming to have a superior divine origin to the authorities tasked with safeguarding the rights of the world’s children.

Tat was at best deluded, and at worst evil. Te Anglican Church was fully complicit in this appalling behaviour. Abusive clergy were quietly moved from parish to parish, school to school, diocese to diocese, and sometimes overseas. Others were secretly sacked. Criminal activity was not reported to the police and parents were kept in the dark.

OVERVIEW OF THE PROBLEM In 1984, the Roman Catholic Church began to experience the complex and highly embarrassing problem of clergy sexual miscon- duct in the United States. Within months of the first public case emerging in Lafayette, Louisiana, it was clear that this problem was not geographically isolated, nor a minuscule exception.' In- stances of clergy sexual misconduct surfaced with increasing noto- riety. Bishops, the leaders of the United States Catholic dioceses, were caught off guard. They were unsure of how to deal with spe- cific cases, and appeared defensive when trying to control an ex- panding and uncontrollable problem.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See JOHN PAUL II ANGELUS 18 January 1998 Dear Brothers and Sisters, 1. The annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity starts today and its theme is: "The Spirit helps us in our weakness" (Rom 8:26). The ecumenical challange faced by all disciples of Christ first demands much prayer. A common, continual prayer so that the Spirit of Jesus, despite human weaknesses and limitations, will help Christians to cross the threshold of the new millennium, "if not completely united, at least much closer to overcoming the divisions of the second millennium" (Tertio millennio adveniente, n. 34). We must not be resigned to these divisions. Instead, we must dare with the boldness of those who trust in God's help and use every means to take the path of sincere and respectful dialogue. We are in the second year of preparation for the Jubilee. It is the year dedicated to the Holy Spirit, who is truly the principal agent of every effort towards full unity. It is he, in fact, who makes present in every age the unique Revelation brought by Christ to humanity, making it alive and active in the heart of each individual and of the whole Church. Therefore, "in these last years of the milliennium, the Church should invoke the Holy Spirit with ever greater insistence, imploring from him the grace of Chrisian unity" (ibid.). 2. I now have the joy of announcing that on 21 February next, the eve of the feast of St Peter's Chair, I will hold a Consistory in which I will appoint 20 new Cardinals.

    1 MASS OF DEDICATION OF THE CHURCH AND ALTAR OF SACRIFICE SHRINE OF OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE, LA CROSSE JULY 31, 2008 FINAL REMARKS 1A. Before the Final Blessing and Dismissal, I express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you who have come to pray for an abundant outpouring of the grace of the Holy Spirit through the Rite of the Dedication of the Church of the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe and the Altar of Sacrifice. It is my prayer that the Virgin of Guadalupe will watch over and guard you always, interceding for your intentions and the intentions of those for whom you have prayed and will pray at her shrine. 1B. Antes de la Bendición Final y de la Despedida, expreso mi más sentido agradecimiento a todos ustedes que han venido a orar para que el Espíritu Santo derrame de manera abundante su gracia por medio del Rito de Dedicación de la Iglesia del Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe y del Altar de Sacrificio. Es mi oración que la Virgen de Guadalupe siempre vele sobre ustedes y los guarde. Que ella interceda por sus intenciones y las intenciones de aquellos por quienes ustedes han orado y por aquellos por quienes ustedes orarán en su santuario. 2A. His Eminence, Cardinal Norberto Rivera Carrera, the Archbishop of Mexico City and Primate of Mexico, regrets very much that he was unable to be with us today, as he had earlier hoped to be. As a token of the closest spiritual union of the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City and Our Lady’s newest shrine here, Cardinal Rivera has sent a piece of the rock of the Hill of Tepeyac, which will be encased in the church near the statue of Saint Juan Diego.
