There are many known ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ Bishops in the U.S. and Europe. Rome has known for decades. They have done nothing about them, and they will do nothing about them.
ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ priests operate freely under ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ Bishops.
Also, folks need to stop using the terms of the Jєωιѕн media when referring to these priests. They are not pedophiles, they are ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs.
This has been from the beginning, a ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ operation within the Church and the Vatican, which research shows is crawling with them.
Benedict XVI and Who is he to judge, both know who they are.
AS bad as this may be, let us remember, we are not Donatists, and that the moral depravity of individuals does not invalidate their office and the respect we owe to it (not them). Let us always call to mind first our own sins and try to stop being part of the problem in that sense, and perhaps one day our own sanctity will allow our voices to be heard. In the meantime, let us resist as best as we can serenely and peacefully, in the grace of God, yet using the gift of Anger, which is the incendiary power of the soul, against our real enemy :Satan and his minions. Let us also remember that no one really wants to do evil, but people get caught up in worldliness and worldly ways of thinking. They are also victims of the deceptions of the evil one.
Just a few thoughts. It's not so much us vs them, conservative vs liberal, Straight vs gαy as ALL OF US Vs Satan, just the majority are deceived. But are we less deceived if we turn into backbiters, slanderers, hypocrites and verbal murderers of the brethren???
No accusations here, just rumination. :detective:
