As long as those homo seminarians aren't trained in the seminary to offer the Traditional Latin Mass, Francis will turn a blind eye.

After all, who is he to judge?

Men like this have gravely wounded the Catholic Church.

From the sixties many of the seminaries were captured by homosexual priests who got themselves placed as headmen in them. They would reject young men who weren’t of their own sort.-Spirit of Vatican ll and all that. Once they get to be in charge of an org they skew recruitment and acceptance of postulants. JPll started to lever some of them out of their positions but it didn’t go far enough.

I have wondered about Bergoglio himself.

Purely anecdotal observation here. I am under the impression that this infection (East SF Bay Area) is around the major churches and those close to college campuses, and generally skips the smaller churches and possibly also the priories.

How do they prove they are openly homosexual? Does he have a little demo?

[bigbob]

The “open” part is the only thing new here

[DPMD]

That sort of admissions/hiring practice isn’t limited to seminaries.

[DPMD]

The article doesn’t say whether he discriminates between the two. “Openly” covers a lot of ground, and one must ask how he requires them to demonstrate their “openness.” And whether or not he provides volunteers to aid in the demo.

Does this son of satan want MORE abused boys?

Because this is how you get more abused boys...

[ebb tide]

When they proudly announce they are out and proud.

Anymore stupid questions?

[NorthMountain]

No.

Open or closeted, putting a faggot in a position of power or authority with respect to children (particularly boys) will result in more sexual abuse of children (particularly boys).

[dfwgator]

I thought the point is that being a priest is such a commitment that you are literally “married to The Church.”

[dixie1202]

Do they have to be celibate or does that only apply to straight men?

[married21]

German Catholic leaders should be ignored. They are in charge of a puny and shrinking number of Catholics. They are failures.
African Catholic leaders otoh grow their flocks. They attract people away from Islam. They are the real deal,

After JPII, Cardinal Arinze was my choice for Pope.
