Scottish Bishop: No Vaccine, No Mass

Catholic leaders collude with left wing Scottish National Party

GLASGOW, Scotland (ChurchMilitant.com) - A Catholic bishop chairing the COVID-19 Pastoral Ministry Working Group in Scotland has sparked alarm among Catholics after revealing that restoring normal parish life is contingent on finding a vaccine for the Wuhan virus.

"While it will be wonderful when our parishes can reopen, we recognize that parish life cannot quickly return to normal until a vaccine or a treatment is available," Bp. Brian McGee of the diocese of Argyll and the Isles announced.

"We do not expect this to happen until at least 2021" and "parish activities will still be greatly restricted," McGee noted, "even when churches reopen."

"No normality means no Mass, no Communion. Catholics in Scotland continue to be scandalously and systematically denied participation in the Mass as bishops and their bureaucrats collude with the ruling atheistic, leftist Scottish National Party (SNP)," a Catholic lay leader from Glasgow told Church Militant.

"The bishops seem to have decided, years ago, on a policy of appeasement, at odds with their status as shepherds in a deeply secular country," he observed. "Only after Catholics flooded every single bishops' inbox with e-mails demanding a resumption of Masses, there has been some talk of the possibility of commencing normal parish life, and that too in 2021."

Sources told Church Militant that the bishops were taken aback by the extent of protest from lay Catholics through the OpenChurchesScotland campaign and some in the hierarchy even resorted to subtle threats to bully campaign leaders into silence.

Take the Mark, or don’t get Mass.

Is this a competition for irony?

An HIV vaccine has been a front burner political issue for nearly 30 years. Still none in the works.

If the Church is not offering masses up or allowing sacraments, what else is the point of the local church?

It’s here. Persecution for the 21st Century West. This is intolerable. So far our parish is reasonable, but I’m looking into Eastern Rite Catholic churches.

During the European plagues, good Catholic priests died attending to victims. The surviving priests steered the Church in a selfish, Christ-abandoning direction that these bishops embody perfectly.

Denying Holy Communion to devout Catholics is satanic. Our cousins in other denominations support our sentiment, even without the same theology. Guess we won’t catch a breath until Jesus’ return.

I have sometimes told younger people, that a single news event of the last 10 years would have had merited months of discussion on TV news, magazines, etc. Now these political, social, and religious bombs are coming back-to-back days apart. I fear personal suffering, pain, starvation, and persecution but I have no doubt this is what my remaining life on earth will feature.
