Sodomy and Sado-masochism Have Now Been Linked to Benedict-Ratzinger's Own Household

Just when you thought that the Newchurch of the New Order couldn't sink further into depravity, a new sex scandal has shocked Rome and all of Christendom, as it places the worst sins of depravity right in Benedict-Ratzinger's own household.

The Italian weekly, Panorama, in its July 23, 2010, edition, has exposed a sodomy ring operating among Roman presbyters, some of them members of Benedict-Ratzinger's own household. Using hidden cameras, a journalist from the magazine videotaped three presbyters as they attended "gαy" nightspots and committed numerous acts of sodomy there. One taping showed a presbyter wearing a dog collar and engaging in sado-masochistic sodomy. Another presbyter was videotaped committing sodomy in a cassock. A third presbyter sodomized two male prostitutes while the hidden camera rolled.

The tapes are so scandalous that neither the Italian Bishops Conference or Benedict-Ratzinger had any immediate reaction. Panorama stated that it had carried out thorough checks and established that all sodomite presbyters involved were "in good standing" with Benedict-Ratzinger and his Newchurch. A member of the Novus Ordo clergy quoted by the magazine put the proportion of "gαy" presbyters in Rome at "98 per cent."The Panorama videotapes confirm a fact that was already known, but little publicized outside Rome. In March 2010 Roman court docuмents revealed that a member of Benedict-Ratzinger's own household had procured male prostitutes for a papal gentleman-in-waiting.

The ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖization of Newchurch appears to be a direct result of Benedict-Ratzinger's gαy-friendly policies. In his Instruction concerning the Criteria for the Discernment of Vocations with regard to Persons with ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ Tendencies in View of their Admission to the Seminary and to Holy Orders, dated November 4, 2005, and reissued on July 28, 2008, Benedict-Ratziger described sodomy not as Sacred Scripture and therefore Catholic moral doctrine traditional defines it, as One of the Four Sins that Cry out to God for Vengeance, but merely as an "orientation." In those docuмents Benedict-Ratzinger allowed for the admission of ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs to his Novus Ordo seminaries, and many Novus Ordo seminaries actively recruit ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs to become presbyters for the New Order.

  Don't waste a good crisis. 21st Century Catholic Reformation - setting up underground home prayer meetings while there is still some freedom left in the world.

Catholic church embarrassed by gαy priests revelations

The Catholic church, already reeling from a string of clerical sex abuse scandals, is facing new embarrassment after an Italian magazine published an investigation into what it termed the double life of gαy priests in Rome.

Using hidden cameras, the weekly Panorama, owned by Italy's prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi, captured priests visiting gαy clubs and bars and having sex. The Vatican does not condemn ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs, but it teaches that gαy sex is "intrinsically disordered". In one of his earliest moves, pope Benedict barred actively gαy men from studying for the priesthood.

The diocese of Rome lashed out at the prime minister's magazine, saying its aim was "to create scandal [and] defame all priests". But it also urged gαy clerics to leave both the closet and the priesthood.

It said, "Consistency would require that they come into the open", but that they "ought not to have become priests".

The semi-official papal daily, L'Osservatore Romano, made no reference to the affair. Vatican Radio reported it briefly.

One priest, a Frenchman in his 30s identified as Father Paul, attended a party at which there were two male prostitutes then said Mass the following morning before driving them to the airport, Panorama reported. A photo on its website claimed to show the priest in his dog collar but without his trousers with a gαy man who acted as decoy for the magazine. In other shots, priests were shown apparently kissing Panorama's collaborator.

A member of the clergy quoted by the magazine put the proportion of gαy priests in the Italian capital at "98%". The Rome diocese insisted the vast majority of priests in the city were "models of morality for all", while adding that the number of gαy clergyman was "small, but not to be written off as isolated cases". A review eight years ago of research on the American church concluded that between a quarter and a half of seminarians and priests there were ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ.

A former Italian MP and gαy activist, Franco Grillini, said: "If all the gαys in the Catholic church were to leave it at once – something we would very much like – they would cause it serious operational problems."

Another well-known spokesman for the gαy community, Aurelio Mancuso, condemned Panorama's investigation as a "horrible political and cultural operation", but agreed that if priests in Rome were to follow the advice given to them in yesterday's statement, it would "paralyse" the diocese.

In March, the pope's own household was rocked by scandal when court docuмents revealed a Vatican chorister had procured male prostitutes for a papal gentleman-in-waiting.
