Gays in the Clergy
Hello everyone and welcome to The Vortex where lies and falsehoods are trapped and exposed. I’m Michael Voris coming to you from St. Peter’s Square at the Vatican.
It’s a subject no one really wants to discuss in the open. Every now and then it emerges in an article or book .. but then gets the short shrift as clergymen pass over it as quickly as possible.
The subject? The powerful and influential homosexual sub-culture .. or should we say semi- sub culture.
Here in Rome .. it is no secret .. and if you get in to discussions with the right people who are well informed .. the homosexual mafia is not only a given .. but their power and influence are more far reaching than almost any Catholic in the pew would ever imagine.
These homosexual clergy and their allies have caused tremendous damage to the Church and it’s about time the issue was talked about plainly and openly.
We’ve touched on this topic every now and then .. from the so-called Gay Masses in St. Joseph’s Parish in Sydney’s Newtown neighborhood to the Gay Mass at St. Francis Xavier in the New York Archdiocese to London’s So-Ho District Gay Mass at The church is Our Lady of the Assumption and St Gregory. It doesn’t take a master’s degree or a Papal diploma to know these abominations are evil.
Can you imagine St. Augustine or St. Thomas or Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen giving their blessings to these?
But here’s the larger point. These are allowed to happen .. as well as many other things .. because of the pervasive presence of active and passive homosexuals among Catholic clergy .. many of them very high ranking who wield enormous amounts of influence. And here at the Vatican .. the question is being wondered about and whispered about .. how can this network be put out of business? The problem is that it appears to be so widespread and on every level .. that no one is sure how to tackle it.
While there are a few open homosexuals in the clergy .. some of them bishops like Rembert Weakland who ruled the archdiocese of Milwaukee like his own personal gay Club Med from 1977-2002 when he stepped down in disgrace after his former male “lover” blackmailed him for nearly half a million dollars. Weakland is just the tip of the iceberg however. The homosexual clergy sex abuse crisis which became public ten years ago has brought a number of homosexual clergy .. including bishops .. to the public eye.
It’s not the point of this Vortex episode to go back and re-visit each of those cases .. they are notorious and easily discoverable on the internet .. but rest assured .. there are many of them.
The point it to engage in the larger discussion of the power this network of gay priests and bishops wield and how they use that power not only to live a life of sexual immorality .. but to silence those who seek to expose their evil.
Moreover .. they have been complicit in willfully doing all they could to pervert the liturgy .. seminaries .. schools and every other institutional aspect of church life they could. They have viciously sought to destroy the faith by undermining it at every turn.
This has all tied into a much larger broad based agenda on the part of the homosexual movement in general to force society into accepting same-sex attraction and acting on those attractions as normal and even good.
The movement coalesced in the late 1960’s .. in what some have called The Evil 60’s for a variety of events that that occurred in that turbulent decade.
Militant homosexual activists began to organize socially and politically in the early and mid-70’s .. and it was then that they publicly said it was organized religion that would be their greatest obstacle.
So they first began subtle attacks on Protestant groups .. fighting to have homosexual acts viewed as not being sinful. They joined various denominations and became ministers and leaders and advanced the so-called gay-agenda. At the same time .. modernist Catholics were banging the drum for greater hand-holding with Protestant groups and this trend has continued non-stop since. With a bridge to a more “open and welcoming” style of theology .. Catholic homosexual clergy now had the opportunity to meet each other through already established social and political networks.
And meet they did. Up to this time .. homosexual Catholic priests had remained somewhat isolated from each other except for the occasional meetings. But with networking channels now available to them .. a sea change happened.
The Protestant Clergy Gay Network model was imported into the halls of Catholic clergy and shortly thereafter .. a whole network began developing .. oftentimes under the banner of social justice. One big organization was Call To Action .. which got its start in the Detroit Archdiocese in 1976.
While many consider it the first .. Call To Action would not be the last. Soon more blatant Catholic groups would begin emerging .. like Catholic Coalition for Gay Civil Rights .. Dignity .. New Way Ministry and others .. which openly protest Church teaching and call for change.
Attached to these mostly lay groups were numerous priests and diocesan staffs all across the country .. various priests who in fact would move up the ranks to become heads of seminaries .. monsignors .. and bishops. And what they shared in common was their homosexuality and their desire for the Church to accept their sin as a virtue.
So they spent decades kicking orthodox straight men out of seminaries .. persecuting priests who fought against them .. and insuring that they get as many homosexuals ordained as they possibly could.
As part of the larger plan to overthrow Church teaching .. they have struggled mightily and quite successfully to undermine ALL sexual morality teachings of the Church.
It was many of the loudest voices who opposed Humane Vitae .. Pope Paul’s 1968 condemnation of birth control .. and still oppose it .. who have also come out in favor of greater acceptance of homosexuality in general .. civil unions and even same sex marriage.
While this is somewhat of an overview of WENT wrong and how it happened .. the much more pressing concern is this .. how to eradicate this evil from the bosom of the Church. Here in Rome .. which admittedly moves very slowly with everything .. the fruits of the homosexual clergy culture in the Church .. a mass falling away from the faith .. is only now being realized in all its ugliness.
In many ways .. it’s very secretive .. and no doubt .. in not a few cases .. it is able to threaten to blackmail. But however it’s done .. there are those in the Vatican who say .. this network must be exposed and ended before any more souls are lost.
GOD Love you,
I’m Michael Voris
God bless Michael Voris and others recently for having the courage to speak out.
Everyone who has not done so needs to read this series of essays by Peter J. Colosi, and ask yourself WHY the USCCB has failed to make this case:
The HHS Mandate: A Question of Religious Freedom or the Life Issues?
The HHS Mandate: This is About Contraception
The HHS Mandate: What Now, In Light of the Supreme Court Ruling?
Sorry to hear that about Bernardin. I had no idea.
Brian, please don't understand what I'm about to say. You know I've defended Michael Voris articles on this forum and will continue to do so if need be. But he is wrong when he says that that interpretation of Sedom and `Amorah comes from liberal Protestants. That is simply the traditional, immemorial Jewish tradition. The residents of those cities wanted only wealthy people to settle there and "discouraged" others by such means as homosexual rape (as in Genesis 19).
But regardless of this, male homosexuality is a capital offense for both Jews and non-Jews. The actual prohibition is stated in Leviticus 18, and is elaborated in the Oral Torah.
The liberal Protestants Voris mentions are mistaken that the "inhospitability" interpretation of Genesis 19 means homosexuality is okay. It is not.
Carry on.
