We just
barely survived the sexual abuse scandal in the Catholic priesthood, and now
the bishops are going to set up the same conditions in the Boy Scouts that
existed in the U.S. Seminaries. I am disgusted.
With the
U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops taking a “wait and see attitude,” the Boy
Scouts of America openly welcomed homosexual youth to their group. See full article at National Catholic
Register Boy Scouts of America Lifts Ban on Homosexual Scouts
“No youth
may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America on the basis of sexual
orientation or preference alone.” The Scouts’ national council added that line
to the requirements for being a scout on May 23, 2013.
But the
USCCB episcopal liaison for the National Catholic Committee on Scouting Bishop
Robert Guglielmone said, while he was “not particularly encouraged” by the
decision, “WE CAN LIVE WITH IT.” Then he positively encouraged Catholics to
remain involved in the Scouts so they can hold the line back from gay adults
becoming Scout leaders. Sorry, but I
don’t think our children should be endangered by this social experiment while
the U.S. bishops “wait and see” what happens.
Bishops had
ample opportunity to see "what happens" when U.S. seminaries were flooded with homosexual
seminarians and teachers. They converted our future priestly vocations to homosexual
activists for decades, and now they will tolerate the same thing in the Boy
Scouts!
I have a
close friend whose son went into the Catholic seminary a heterosexual man, and
instead of coming out a Catholic priest, he came out a gay man with AIDs. By the grace
of God, he repented and died in the grace of God, having received all the
Catholic sacraments, but what a dreadful thing for the Catholic bishops to allow.
They utterly destroyed that young man’s life. And they have learned nothing!
Nor do I know of any case where a bishop apologized for the conditions he
allowed in the seminary. Nor do they apologize for the conditions they allow in
so-called "Catholic" universities in America! (They did apologize to
the priests' victims)
Instead, how did the
bishops address the accountability for this disaster in the priesthood? By
requiring little old ladies, who wanted to serve the church, to get finger
printed before they can begin their ministry.
There is no
reason for this change in scouting policy. Any youth with a burgeoning interest
in homosexual relations would have been accepted into the Boy Scouts as long as
they were fighting the tendency! If they were fighting the tendency, no one
would know they were gay!
The only
reason for this policy is to allow boys openly expressing their homosexuality
to come in. Once they are openly saying they are gay, they don't want to change
their behavior, and it will be very difficult for them not to act on their
tendencies in a boy-scouting situation. Then they will pass their sexual
disorder to many other innocent young men, who could have grown up, married and
had children. It's an utter tragedy.
I worked
for the San Francisco Examiner in the late '80s, and they did a series on
homosexuality. The newspaper hired many openly gay people, but the series of
articles were honest about the lifestyle. I will never forget the quote from
the man who said he "fell in love" in high school with another boy.
It seemed wonderful to him at first, but
in the end all he had was a miserable life of sadomasochistic group sex, sodomy
and illness. He said he could have been a good husband and father, but -- in his own words -- his life was totally
wasted.
Teenage
boys don't have the discernment to avoid getting hooked into this lifestyle by
their friends. They need to be protected by the adults in authority. Gays have
no way of increasing their numbers except by their own form of vile
recruitment. Have you forgotten the Man Boy Love Association?
I can't
understand why the bishops are SO naive. And I hope that's what it is. They are
repeating the same mistakes they made when they repeatedly moved homosexual
priests, who preyed on teenage boys, from one parish to another, thinking the
man had reformed. This is false charity!
There is no
leadership to be expected from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. In the
‘90s they supported domestic partnerships between same sex couples. They gave
tacit support – except for provisions where they have to pay for birth control
and abortion – to Obama "Care." In the hands of an increasingly secular
totalitarian government, socialized medicine becomes nothing but forced euthanasia
(i.e. murder). The bishops have supported tighter gun control in a time when we
need weapons to defend ourselves against a government with drones aimed at the
U.S. population. AND they continue to shove the Catholic Campaign for Human
Development down our throats in the collection basket! The Campaign for Human
Development has been repeatedly shown to support organizations that support
abortion, birth control, gay marriage, communism and every vile form of
anti-Catholicism. Who would believe the Catholic collection basket would
support abortion!
Make no
mistake. The purpose of this Boy Scout decision is to destroy marriage, as we
know it.
A prominent
lesbian recently admitted she supports gay marriage because it would destroy traditional
marriage. She said the gay agenda is to change marriage into something it
isn’t. Right now it is a lifelong commitment between two people of the opposite
sex built on the foundation of Jesus Christ, built on love.
Gays hate
marriage because they can't ever live it. They want marriage to become their
lifestyle -- a temporary hook-up between people of the same sex. Well, I guess
those who gave up and sought easy divorce and used birth control are reaping
what they sowed. (I’m not referring to those who were suddenly dumped by their
husband or wife, nor those who had to get out of a marriage to protect life and
limb.)
But rampant
easy divorce and birth control in the U.S. have had a lot of negative
consequences, the call for homosexual marriage just being one of them. At this point, I can't do anything with my joint
bank account in my credit union unless my husband gives his approval because he
works for the company where we opened the account. This change has crept up on
us just in the last few years. It is very infuriating because I handle all our
finances. So thirty years of marriage is meaningless now in financial
situations because of the U.S. divorce rate.
Ideas have
consequences. The U.S. Bishops need to LEARN this. This idea of allowing openly
gay boys into the Boy Scouts will have dire consequences for the Scouts, but
also for civilization, as we know it.
(Most of the 100,000 Scout units in America are chartered to religious organizations. The Catholic Churches account for 8,570 of them, placing them third after the Mormons and Methodists.)
How many sacrileges actions must the U S bishops perform before the world gets it that they are not practicing the Catholic Faith and are doing their upmost to destroy from within. One of their endeavors is the Sexualized catechetics in the U S bishop’s schools that introduces evil to the body and the minds of youth beginning in kindergarten.
ReplyDeleteSex education in classrooms is condemned by Pontiffs yet the UNcatechized “People of God” church still financially support series such as “Growing In Love” (GIL) that stirs youth into unholy choices and activities. Ingratitude towards our Savior and infidelities towards Catholic Teachings are engraved on souls at a very tender vulnerable age. Jesus and Mary cannot reign within these souls. The G I L series –“with imprimatur”--- is a raging beast that smothers and tears away virtues with diabolical teeth.

It’s time to face this fact: do not look to these men in black to save souls. That is not their mission.
