Joe Zwilling (spokesman for the Archdiocese of New York) is on WABC radio NOW chastising Msgr. Clark! Says he didn't hear all Msgr. Clark's remarks, but that Clark's suggestion that "homosexuals are somehow more inclined to pedophilia" than others, is "unfair."

Well, Joe Zwilling just lost all credibility didn't he, LOL! He obviously will have to go as he is part of the problem up there.

Yeah, and here I thought Joe Zwilling was a cool guy. I guess it's all about the paycheck. He has to go.

Domestic, yes, this is an infilitration of Gramscian proportion. Here is a little more information on the Growing In Love Catechism book series available for ages k-8 and distributed all throughout Diocese in our country:

"The book is authored by a writer who particularly stands out as a priest, for his extremely pro-homosexual views, as well as his dissent from church teachings. He is also unabashedly vulgar about sexuality and crudely discusses genitalia in street parlance and laments sex-ed materials that have been sanitized by "taking out the body parts." When speaking before religious educator audiences and seminarians.

His name is Reverend Richard Sparks, and he has achieved notoriety for his public dissent from the Holy Father on important Catholic doctrines such as Human Vitae, and also for his activist efforts on the part of the homosexual community muscling its way into the church. He helped promote the "GLBT: (gay, lesbian, bisexual, training) staff training in 9 of 11 Catholic schools in the Minneapolis diocese. 1.

His views can best be described as permissive: "In various addresses given at the Conference, and reported in the press, Sparks stated that he opposed burdening teenagers with principles of sexual morality, because this would cause internal conflicts, leading to a 'dysfunctional' way of life and an unhealthy image of God as a 'strict judge or moody tyrant.' He also stated that people should "never malign the sincerity of pro-choice or pro-euthanasia people" because these are "complex issues.""2.

Sparks promotes the pro-homosexual agenda in the book both overtly and subvertly: on Page Nine the radical homosexual activist ministry is referred to: Always our Children. Take a look at the vital statistics of some of its founders: Fr. Nugent is the U.S. Church’s most well-known homosexual propagandist. Because of his advocacy of embracing the "gay lifestyle" and his aggressive dissent from Church teaching, he was stripped of his faculties to preach and hear confessions in the Archdiocese of Washington. In 1979 the Vatican initiated an investigation into his homosexual advocacy. The investigation resulted in Cardinal James Hickey’s letter to all American bishops stating that the organization he founded, New Ways Ministry, is "ambiguous" on the morality of homosexual acts. Fr. Nugent is also barred from speaking on Church property by Cardinal Bernard Law of Boston, (too racy even for Law, my my).

Fr. Shexnayder is president of the National Association of Catholic Diocesan Lesbian and Gay Ministries. He owns a private home in Oakland with the former chairman of Dignity San Francisco, a gay-rights group which agitates for Church acceptance of homosexual relationships, sometimes even resorting to sacrilegious pranks. In June, 1994, following the Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual/Transgendered Parade in San Francisco, Fr. Shexnayder celebrated a Mass for the Catholic participants in the event, giving Communion to all. In his homily that day he stated: "We must not let our homophobic society confine our homosexuality to the bedroom… Our homosexuality must burst forth from the bedroom and leaven all of society."

Fr. Liuzzi , who calls himself "the gay priest," serves as the head of Gay and Lesbian Ministries for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. At a 1997 pro-homosexual conference in Los Angeles, Fr. Liuzzi called for a "new and different gay revolution." He stressed his belief that homosexuality is morally neutral and that gays have a right to participate in the Church community without having to hide their homosexuality. At that gathering Fr. Liuzzi pretended to bless those in attendance with puppy urine. 3. http://www.aquinas-multimedia.com/catherine/aoc.html

Statement on Notification by Most Reverend Joseph A. Fiorenza Bishop of Galveston-Houston President, National Conference of Catholic Bishops

"The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith has notified Sister Jeannine Gramick, SSND, and the Reverend Robert Nugent, SDS, that they are "permanently prohibited from any pastoral work involving homosexual persons." This decision was reached after nearly twelve years of dialogue with Sister Gramick and Father Nugent. This dialogue began with a commission, appointed in 1988 and chaired by Cardinal Adam Maida, to examine criticism that, in their ministry to homosexual persons, they did not fully and accurately present the teaching of the Church on homosexuality " " .4 http://www.nccbuscc.org/comm/archives/99-171a.htm

This is from a two part research I compiled for distribution to Catholic school parents. The other document traces the growth in power and influence of the militant Gays in America, particularly in our schools. I titled it "We are here and Queer" After their 1993 march on Washington where they chanted: " We Are Here and Queer and We Are Coming for Your Children."

They have arrived. V's wife.
