Well, well, well, young ladies, you have stepped over the
line one too many times. My previous
scoldings, tongue lashings and hand slappings obviously haven’t worked. From hence forth you shall only speak when
spoken to. When you do speak, you will
utter only the words I tell you to speak.
You will only participate in activities that I have sanctioned. You will associate only with people and
groups who I have previously approved.
Everything you do, say and THINK will be monitored by my hand-picked
lady-sitter. You will learn to behave
like the proper ladies I expect you to be.
You will LEARN YOUR PLACE in the world and you will REMAIN IN YOUR PLACE
under threat of eternal damnation.
Why? By what authority do I
declare this mandate? Because I am your
Father, my authority comes directly from God, I AM IL PAPA, The Pope!
You are held to a standard set by God. As a woman, you are born of Man as was Eve
born from Adam’s rib. You are not fully
human. Humanity applies only to men. We were the first and we wield a mighty wand. God put man on earth to control
your uncontrollable, base nature.
Without our guidance you would sow destruction upon our earth. Only through our beneficence can you possibly
know God and do God’s work. Only we know
God’s mind, only we are inherently able to determine Right from Wrong, Good
from Evil. We are always on the side of
Right and Good. Only we have the God
given ability to lead the world and keep people on the path of both Right and
Good. We are God’s perfect examples of
how to live a Godly, Devout life…………………..unless, of course we see a lovely
young boy and, occasionally, a particularly charming young girl. Then it is incumbent upon us to share God’s
love with them. With young children, we
can demonstrate the ecstasy of God’s love.
We can teach young boys the power that resides within the wand with
which God gifted them.
END OF SARCASM.
The Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR) have been
roundly reprimanded by The Vatican, i.e. Pope Benedict for what he and Bishop
Leonard Blair have determined that the Leadership:
“had challenged church teaching on homosexuality and the
male-only priesthood, and promoted “radical feminist themes incompatible with
the Catholic faith.” And these heretical women have focused too much of their time and efforts on the issue of poverty.

Apparently the pervasive perversion of pedophilic priests
and the conspiracy by higher ranking authorities within the church (including
the current Pope before he was “elected” to his position) weren’t horrendous,
hypocritical nor outrageous enough for Catholics around the world to flee this faith. I shouldn’t need to detail these
crimes committed by priests against children, as well as those committed against church followers. How these criminally perverted hypocrites
could continue to preach to their parishioners about morality, values and purity
of mind and body is beyond my understanding.
Certainly, it is the epitome of “Do as I say, not as I do.” To stand in judgment, take confession of the
people who looked to them for salvation is unconscionable. For me, worse yet was the fact that church
elders were well aware of the perverted activities of the priests and chose to
either ignore it, cover it up or transfer the priest to another unwitting
parish, where those priests would have a “fresh crop” of innocent children to
molest. There was no outrage, no
condemnation of this widespread disease infecting the church. In most cases the church attacked the victims instead. However, now that women have dared to
minister to the poor, to provide counsel and comfort to those in the LGBT
community, to speak up for women’s health rights – this is what the Church
finds truly outrageous. This is
something that DEMANDS Public Shaming.
No doubt, if the Church had the power in today’s world, these women
would be trotted out into the public square, have their bodices ripped from
them, tie them to a stake and whip them for the public to witness. Alternately, they would probably like to lock
them in a pillory so that the public could walk past them and pelt them with eggs,
rotten tomatoes or even stones.
What will it take for those who call themselves Catholic to
fully reject this corrupt, evil organization?
The sacrificing of the lives of innocent children apparently wasn’t
enough. Will the public shaming and
denunciation of nuns and women of faith who have generously served the physical
and moral needs of individual people become the one that opens their
eyes?
UPDATE June 2 6:15 PM Eastern Time: Alternet ( http://www.alternet.org/) has a lengthy post about this issue. It's well worth reading, as well as encouraging. Personally, I can only hope that the nuns will defeat The Vatican in this struggle. Check it out here: http://www.alternet.org/reproductivejustice/155696/why_the_pope_hates_nuns/?page=1

You know, my father may be totally batshit crazy, but at least he had the good sense to part ways with the Catholic church many years ago, and for that I am truly thankful!
ReplyDeleteFortunately some people have awakened and renounced the Church. I hope that this results in the downfall of outdated and oppressive organization.
