Word from Rome is that the Curial clerics and prelates are telling themselves and others that, “Nobody cares about this. Look at the comment threads on mainstream media outlets. The primary outrage is that the sex abuse is being blamed on homosexuals. Nobody cares about the cover-ups. Just a few loud conservatives. This will all be forgotten in a week.”
They are relying on the 36 hour news cycle to bail them out, yet again. I think we should take a lesson from the Weinstein scandal that broke last fall and launched the entire #MeToo movement in that there were fresh allegations and victim testimonies on a daily basis for months on end. Weinstein led to Kevin Spacey, which led to Matt Lauer, etc.

Bottom line is that we need to keep attention on this
Everyone I know is animated about this betrayal by Frankie and the homo-bishops.
In addition to being vile and corrupt, they are insulated and dumb.
The concepts of “confession” and “repentance” seems to go over their heads.
This is about how faithful Catholics respond:
- In the Collection Plate,
- In the Pews (Church Attendance),
- In writing to our Bishops,
- and most importantly, In Prayer and Fasting and correction in our daily lives.
Grievous sin.....and time....
The CC time will come.
“The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.”
Romans 1:18
I suspect that they are more right than we’d like to admit.
The Catholics who have not already left or started withholding donations, care. A lot.
“It will all be forgotten in a week….” Isn’t this one of the lines from The Greatest Story Ever Told after the resurrection? How’d that work out?
Jesus Christ, as Man, was begotten by the Holy Spirit in the womb of the Virgin Mary.
Our Lord the Holy Spirit.
The Lord and Giver of Life.
The "relationship," the Three-in-Oneness if you will, is called the Trinity.
I read that a group was yelling “Vigano, Vigano” at the end of the Pope’s General Audience in St Peter’s Square today! Also, in the course of his ramblings, he said he has no intention of stepping down.
So while he may not be addressing it, clearly he’s aware of what’s going on, even though the press is doing its best to protect him.
That's why the word from Francis has gone out: "Don't say anything about it." They think to address the issue will give it legitimacy, and it will peter out if they ignore it.
This is about how faithful Catholics respond:
That is a good question. I find it interesting that God through His word answers these questions before they are asked.
Joh 6:67 Then Jesus turned to the Twelve and asked, “Are you also going to leave?”
Joh 6:68 Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words that give eternal life.
Notice the question is not “where”. I read it that way for many years. The proper question is “whom”, and that answer is Jesus and His Word, not the Church whether P or RC.
You are 100% correct.
However, I suspect few Catholics who decide to remain are going to stop attending Mass or putting money in the collection basket.
So at the end of the day they will probably get away with it.
They sound like Hillary’s election team.
I agree with everything except write to the Bishops. That would be a waste of a Postage Stamp. Most US Bishops are spineless cowards. We have stop using our collections envelopes and will no longer give to any Diocese Charities.
The Holy Spirit is not a “relationship.” The Holy Spirit is a Person: the Third Person of the Holy Trinity.
So G-d's going to rip up chrstianity and start a third religion? Wonder what it will be.
At least you're consistent. Most hypocrites insist that G-d abolished Torah (G-d forbid!) but will never abolish chrstianity.
