The lying vermin are desperately trying to destroy the Pope. The catholic church is the single most powerful enemy of planetary communism.

I think this article is the one that really makes the NY Times look like the “Communist Anti-Catholics” they truly are. It is by Fr. Brundage, who was the Judicial Vicar of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee and the Presiding Canonical Trial Judge for the Fr. Murphy’s sex abuse trial.

http://catholicanchor.org/wordpress/?p=601

The NY Times has never contacted him regarding the trial but now Fr. Brundage has gone public. I think every Catholic Diocesan newspaer should publish Fr. Brundage’s article.

regards

One more data point. Outrage is a homosexual organization.

Weakland must have “poofters” making up things and handing them to the NYT.

The demonization of the Catholic church is example #1 of the total power of the media. They have promoted this "abuse" scandal and set up the church as the target for scorn and hatred while leaving predatory homosexuality completely ignored.

Its not the church that is responsible...IT'S THE HOMOSEXUALS IN THE CHURCH!!

The media hates the Pope because he refuses to turn the Church into the empty relativist progressive dogma that has hijacked the Anglicans.

**It is by Fr. Brundage, who was the Judicial Vicar of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee and the Presiding Canonical Trial Judge for the Fr. Murphy’s sex abuse trial.**

A key point that media has not contacted him......Go figure?

(In other words, they don’t want to know the truth — they just want to slime the Catholic Church. It’s not really about Pope Benedict; there have been attacks against the credibility of other Popes.

They are AFTER the one, holy Catholic and apostolic Church, period!!

If that weren’t so sad, it would be funny!

Condemn the sin, pray for the sinner.

No doubt about it, The Catholic Church is an institution that is the oldest continuest Institution on earth today, with the collapse of the Chinese Dynasty in the early 20th century. COmmunit hate “Tradition” as it ties us to the traditions and values of the the past, which means Western Civilization of which you don’t have without the Catholic Church. Hence, the CHurch as the visible sign and reminder of that Traditon has to be attacked and discredited so the Marixt-Commnunist can “create the future” and make it conform to their secularist-marxist ideology. For Communist and Marxist-secularist, history is something for them to create and thus Catholicism, with its history going back to antiquity and thus [to the Incarnation of Christ] has to be destroyed. THis has been, is now, and will be the battle that will be waged as Satan knows who the real McCoy is an the one who needs to be destroyed.

SCARED. TO. DEATH. (or should I say, “scared OF death.”) They know what their judgment will be. More whistling past the graveyard.

"They know what their judgment will be. More whistling past the graveyard."

Obviously, this does NOT refer to Fr. Brundage, etc., but to the creeps, pedophiles, and homosexuals who think demonstrating against Benedict is going to affect his mission. Like I said, more whistling past the graveyard...

I am not a Catholic and I have no axe to grind with the church. I express my sympathy to all the good Catholics out there, who are seeing their church and Pope viciously attacked by the media, leftists and atheists. That said, the church has, unfortunately, helped to create this problem. There are numerous cases where church officials have given some very bad people the “benefit of the doubt” and merely transferred accused priests from one location to another. There is an old maxim that “Justice must not only be done, it must be seen to be done”. In the Catholic church’s case, there are many, many examples in which justice was not seen to be done. These examples are now being exploited by those who would choose to attack the church.

Then-presiding judge for the Archdiocese of Milwaukee gives first-person account of church trial ...

The unmitigated sleaze of the 0bama media in perpetrating this globally coordinated attack on the Church and Pope Benedict XVI, during the most holy week of the year, is disgusting beyond belief. The liberal homosexual bed-wetters in the media, yes I mean you andy sullivan, are in many ways worse than the fr. Murphy's of the world. In the face of facts that prove the depravity of a homosexual lifestyle that assaults nature's creation, you not only deny the homosexual guilt of the involved criminals you continue to endorse/affirm their lifestyles that are the cause of these horrific and gruesome crimes.
