HOMOSEXUALITY IS THE MISSING LINK IN THE PRIEST ABUSE SCANDAL

It'll be interesting to see if the New York Times publishes anything from the story below, right alongside all their other coverage of the Catholic sex scandal.

For all of the left's concern for "the children", my guess is that their overriding desire to support sexual licence and immorality will trump any of their outrage at the sexual abuse of minors or anyone else. Because all of their screaming and howling about Catholic sex scandals isn't about protecting anyone; it is designed and directed at destroying the Church, the one institution left standing in the way of the "New World Order".

So there won't be any reporting from any mainstream media outlet about the proven link between homosexuality and sexual abuse by those in a position of power. No, all we'll hear is the continued drumbeat meant to inflame the passions against the Church. That's why there is no reporting of any consequence about all the others being abused in the schools, Protestant churches and synagogues. The damaged and abused children and adults are just pawns in a larger game.

The ends justify the means. Never let a good crisis got to waste.


"Following Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone’s comments in Chile about a link existing between homosexuality and pedophilia in cases of clerical sexual abuse, both Church officials and secular figures clarified his statement. But Dr. Richard Fitzgibbons, a psychiatrist with experience treating sexually abusive priests, told CNA that the cardinal's statement is accurate.

...Many gay rights organizations reacted vehemently to Cardinal Bertone’s statement, leading Fr. Federico Lombardi, director of the Vatican Press office, to assert that “it obviously refers to the problem of abuse by priests and not in the population in general."

...However, a U.S. psychiatrist with experience in treating priests with pedophilia disagrees that there is no link between homosexuality and sexual abuse of children. “Cardinal Bertone's comments are supported completely by the John Jay study report and by clinical experience,” Dr. Richard Fitzgibbons told CNA. “In fact, every priest whom I treated who was involved with children sexually had previously been involved in adult homosexual relationships.”

Fitzgibbons, who has been the director of Comprehensive Counseling Center in West Conshohocken, Penn. since 1988, has worked extensively with individuals suffering from same sex attraction (SSA) and priests accused of pedophilia. He also presently serves as a consultant to the Congregation for the Clergy at the Holy See.

...When asked what sort of new information has become available since the publication of the letter, Fitzgibbons put an emphasis on narcissism. “This epidemic personality weakness in the west predisposes individuals to excessive anger, the worship of self, rebelliousness against God and His Church particularly in regard to sexual morality and sexual acting-out,” he said."
