Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano released another communique regarding the ongoing homosexual scandal in the Church and the Vatican’s continued failure to combat it. Abp. Vigano properly identifies the current crisis in the Church as the “plague of homosexuality in the clergy.” Abp. Vigano said in his latest public address, “This is a crisis due to the plague of homosexuality, in those who practice it, in its motions, in its resistance to being corrected.”

Abp. Vigano also addressed the criticisms he received from Cdl. Oulette after his last public statement indicated that Cdl. Oulette could confirm Abp. Vigano’s testimony that then Cardinal McCarrick had restrictions imposed upon him by Pope Benedict. While Cdl. Oulette denies having any documentation to affirm this, Abp. Vigano stands by his original statement.

This new statement was sent to Vatican journalist, Aldo Maria Valli, and the English translation through Google Translate is as follows:

Witnessing corruption in the hierarchy of the Catholic Church was a painful decision for me, and it still is. But I am an old man, one who knows that he will soon have to give an account to the judge of his actions and omissions, who fears the One who can throw body and soul into hell. Judge, who, even in his infinite mercy “will make each one according to merit the prize or eternal punishment” (Act of Faith). Anticipating the terrible question of that Judge: “How could you, you who were aware of the truth, remain silent in the midst of so much falsehood and depravity?” What answer could I give?

So you’re speculating again?

“Vat II changed the rcc’s rules to allow homosexual into the seminaries . . . They lowered their standards.”

So it was flawed/fallible before Vat II in that it allowed the sinful rule change and its fallible afterwards/now.

So without a doubt we can see that the rcc is indeed flawed and fallible and they don’t have that magical insight that is claimed, thank you for the clarification.

Stating that altar boys were willing participants to homosexual sex with priests is pure speculation. You sound like a USSCB bishop blaming the young victims.
