BreitbartLondon:
Concerns are being raised after Pope Francis gave a place of honour at the ongoing Synod on the Family to an ultra-liberal cardinal who tried to cover up a sex abuse scandal and has admitted trying to undermine the previous pope.
Cardinal Godfried Danneels, former Archbishop of Mechelen-Brussels in Belgium, has already angered conservatives by calling for the Catholic Church to recognise a “sort of marriage” for gay couples and praising secular governments for introducing civil unions for same-sex couples.
Critics are now also pointing to a scandal in 2010, when Cardinal Danneels tried to cover up a sex abuse case involving a fellow bishop. An audio recording leaked to the Belgian media revealed the cardinal urging the victim not to reveal that his abuser was his uncle Roger Vangheluwe, Bishop of Bruges.
Cardinal Danneels asked the victim if he would wait until Bishop Vangheluwe retired before going public, and even told him to “ask forgiveness” and “acknowledge your own guilt”. The victim responds: “Whose forgiveness do I have to seek? I am not the one to ask for forgiveness.” more here
The Holy Mother Church is very much suffering from some perverse and catastrophic illness.
Pray for Her recovery.
Death to izlam.
Death to socialism.
Death to totalitarianism.
Oh, yeah, and Anal Leakage to Obola!
What is sex abuse to normal people is what abnormal people want to call normal sex! (if the abuse is okay in his book why did he try to cover it up)?
If progfarts were banned from owning guns and being priests, most of our problems would be solved.
To keep from embarrassing The Corporate Office…
There is no recovery, for the “mother” church, or her daughters called “protestant.” There is only Christianity, not the official universal state religion of the Roman Empire. It, and it’s derivatives, are nothing more than the continuation of the Babylonian Mystery religion: heathen.
That is just the way it is, regardless who it angers.
Well, I’ll be buggered….
