I have not written anything about the new Cardinals, because little has come to my screen, up to now, concerning them.
But if this chap is indicative of the general quality, we are in for a very rough ride.
The new Cardinal-designate Dew is such a Kasperite he should get the t-shirt. Nothing in what he says would let you think he is a Catholic. He sounds like a Presbyterian wannabe-boshop, bitching and whining around as he reflects on what shade of pink would make him look better.
We do not know about the sexual orientation of this walking disgrace. But the emotional argument of the man is so effeminate that one truly wonders.Are there no men left among the leftists?
Firstly, note the expression, apparently used already as early as 2005:
the scandal of hunger for eucharistic food.
This is a purely emotional appeal letting the Church appear an oppressive institution unjustly starving the faithful. Scandal, Hunger and food, three words with undisputed high emotional content, are here abused in the most stupid of ways in order to promote a sacrilegious agenda.
If this is the right logic, Catholicism is no more. Better said: if this is the right logic, Catholicism has been a fraud for 2,000 years: an oppressive religion bent on starving the faithful rather than encouraging them on the path to virtue. I am sure the Presbyterian Mr Dew is fully aware of this; he just doesnt care, or perhaps he even believes it.
The purely marketing-based, emotionally charged, whining and bitchy approach of this man to the job he is supposed to do is just as infuriating. The non-existent logic of the chap is explained as follows:
When the bishops were preparing for the synod, they had a huge response, he said: 25 percent of the people responding were nonpracticing Catholics and the message was that Its impossible when were told that because were using contraceptives were intrinsically evil or that were living in an irregular situation the language is so negative that it doesnt help us.
So, my intervention was: Lets not be concentrating on rules, but looking for language that helps people and encourages people in their journey toward God.
This is so gay it runs already for the Elton Prize 2015.
As he sees things, the problem is not that the behaviour is sinful. The problem is that the language is negative! Therefore, we must change the language! But look: if you tone down the language you will destroy the very message, because the harsh language is there exactly to point out to the gravity of the behaviour!
course, says the man. It is so obvious to him that the biggest problem is that there are rules! Lets not be concentrating on rules, then!
How someone who cannot even hear that his behaviour is intrinsically disordered and get all in a tizzy even at being told that his situation is irregular (irregular? Irregular, my foot! Concubinage! Grave scandal! Mortal sin! Satan at the door!) would, then, be encouraged to abandon it once he is told that he will not be told anything unpleasant to him and no one will concentrate on rules is beyond me. Only an idiot with no experience at all of life, or an effeminate priest, could ever come to this kind of conclusion.
Its not only that this is a complete capitulation and renunciation to basic Christianity. It is that the entire thing is made in such an emotionally effeminate way that even the reading of it induces vomit.
The hunger; the food; the negative language that doesnt help us.
Get a pair.
I cannot avoid imagining that Francis went to his luxuriously appointed but oh so humble entire hotel floor and asked: Mirror, mirror on the wall: who is the gayest of them all?
Its John Dew, the Archbishop of Wellington!, the mirror promptly answered.
I am surprised you even asked, I think it added.

If this chap is in any way representative of the average quality of the Cardinals appointed by Francis, I can only conclude that TMAHICHs dagger is now aimed at the very heart of the Church.
St Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Chris Christie when he's humping Dallas Cowboy owner Jerry Jones' leg?
“Who is Richard Simmons?”
How did Presbyterians get dragged into this?
Didn’t they vote to allow openly “gay” clergy?
He's probably just referring to those Presbyterians who have short hair, drive Subaru Outbacks, have barrel shaped bodies, live with their same-sex wives, and are also seen as fit to be bishops by the other lesbians who run too many Presbyterian denominations.
Obama............
I think they dragged themselves into it.
For example:
Those poor Presbies—they get blamed for everything.
Lesbyterians?
Francis is reaching personally and directly into the presbyterates in dioceses all over the world, bypassing the nuncios, and appointing as bishops “horrible” priests. He is doing this especially in the Spanish-speaking world—where he has the most contacts with cronies and buddies. Cupich was such a choice. He was the candidate of the pro-abortion troika: Wuerl, Dolan, O’Malley.
I call them PRO-ABORTION because they give Communion to abortionists. That is an explicit declaration on their part that abortion is not a sin.
Conservative Reformed Presbyterian don’t ordain women as pastors or deacons.
Mainstream Presbyterian and I’m sure some wacko cults do all sorts of heretical things.
I don’t know this guy. But he did go on the record as lamenting the introduction of gay marriage in New Zealand.

It's hard to regard the largest denomination of Presbyterians a "cult," although I won't argue with the wacko part, since PCUSA voted to allow homosexual "marriages" during its 221st General Assembly; June 19, 2014.
Ok, LOL, we don’t have to call it a cult.
The Presbyterian Church of Sodom.
Even vision problems.
