So, conservatives and traditionalists are obsessed with sex. I guess that's the meme that's going to be used to vilify and discredit those who are faithful to Jesus Christ.

[Telepathic Intruder]

They’re saying you’re either obsessed with sexual morality or sexual depravity. Apparently there is no longer a middle ground, so choose your side.

[livius]

The people who are obsessed with sex are the Vatican II crowd, including or even especially, Francis.

The Knights of Malta have every right to challenge the Pope’s claim to authority over them. They have the status of a sovereign nation state.

[Dr. Sivana]

it is part of his obsession with sexual morality, as if this is the decisive feature of what it means to be Catholic and faithful to Jesus Christ when in fact scriptures say very little on these matters,

??

Starting with 20% of the Ten Commandments, deciding out of the blue to talk to the Samaritan at the well about her marriages, fielding a question from the Sadducees about marriage in the afterlife, repeating teaching against divorce and lewd conduct, St. Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, and I haven't even gotten started on the detailed stuff in the OT. Scripture says a lot and implies more about behavior that is too filthy to describe.

If what Burke stands for is what the “Church of Vatican II” is trying to get away from, then I know not what such church is... But it sure is not Catholic.

Homosexuals such as Robert Mickens are the “obsessed” ones.

Mickens and “the closet”. Fr. Z responds.

Robert Mickens, once a writer for The Tablet (aka The Bitter Pill aka RU-486) until he openly wrote that he wished that Benedict XVI should die, now writes for – who else – the Fishwrap (aka National Schismatic Reporter).

Mickens posted a panegyric about suffering closeted “gay” (I hate the distortion of that word) priests whom he places in so many gradations that you’d think they were choirs of angels.

How horribly they are treated! What an injustice it is that the Church says homosexuals shouldn’t be admitted to seminaries! Ratzinger was a real meanie! If not this Pope, who? If not now, when?

He also outs himself.

Mickens’ piece has a lot of yak yak, but it mainly struck me as frustrated, desperate...
