It’s not just the “lavender mafia” that’s at stake here, but the entire Western post-1969 understanding of homosexuality.
The lavender mafia of the Roman Catholic Church have been instrumental in spreading and teaching the “brown eyes, blue eyes” model (for their own benefit), but this heresy has now spread far and wide, beyond the limits of the Roman confession.
What times we live in! The heresy will die, or the church will die. That’s the meaning of this remarkable eleven page “testimony” by Abp. Vigano.
Martin, Cupich, McElroy, Farrell, maybe even Francis have staked EVERYTHING on their play, which is now threatened as never before.
You are right. The whole politically correct narrative which over the last forty years has attempted to discard the collective wisdom of three millennium regarding homosexuality, is at risk if this Pope is forced to resign. He won’t go easily or willingly. If loyal Churchmen have dirt on him, it will have to get messy to get him out. The “who am I to judge” Pope will posture that he is beyond being judged. It will get ugly. However much is at stake and people will need to prepare themselves for a very unpleasant time.
“It’s not just the “lavender mafia” that’s at stake here, but the entire Western post-1969 understanding of homosexuality.”
Bingo!
And they almost won.
Yep.
People think the Church just made up these rules for...I dunno....kicks, or something? No, actually, people learned through brutal process of trial and error that certain kinds of behaviors had side effects which proved toxic to society.
Favoritism, duplicity, narcissism, violence, vindictiveness and pettiness: hallmarks of the sin of Sodom.
