Pope Francis stands accused this morning of covering up the crimes of ex-Cardinal Theodore McCarrick of Washington, one of the most senior and sinister sex abusers in the history of the Catholic Church.



The allegation comes from the Vatican's former apostolic nuncio to the United States, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, 77, who has called on the Pope to resign.



In a devastating 11-page written testament, Viganò says Francis lifted severe sanctions imposed on McCarrick for sexual wrongdoing by Pope Benedict XVI, the existence of which has not been made public until now.



Viganò writes that he told Francis in person in 2013 that McCarrick 'had corrupted generations of seminarians and priests and Pope Benedict ordered him to withdraw to a life of prayer and penance'.



But, says the former nuncio, the new Pope decided instead to cover up for the retired Archbishop of Washington – and made him one of his most trusted advisers.



'He knew from at least June 23, 2013 that McCarrick was a serial predator,' writes Archbishop Viganò. 'He knew that he was a corrupt man, [but] he covered for him to the bitter end.'



Only when the media revealed last month that McCarrick was suspected of the abuse of a minor did Francis take action 'to save his image in the media'.

the pope has no comment



I feel sorry for good rank and file catholics, but I can't stand this SJW fakepope, and the catholic church has disgraced itself for years by letting child molestors move from parish to parish, and now they are the biggest proponents of poisonous muslim mass immigration.   if it all comes tumbling down, then fine with me, good riddance.

If these allegations are true, the pope must resign.

The problems with the Catholic church will never end.  Part of the problem is that they force 'Father O'Touched Me Penis' to remain single (for the purpose of all wealth attained to revert to the church upon death, as opposed to going to a pesky wife and kids instead).

It also goes against scripture..

Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,

The Catholic church under Francis has become a global version of the United Church of Canada.

[Bricktop]

The Catholic Church is a criminal organisation, and should have it's tax exempt status removed immediately.

Things were already bad-- this is right out of the "you can't make this shit up" file



In response to the allegations the pope knew about a child molestor and did nothing about it, this is what a Kook lefty Chicago Cardinal said--



https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/cardinal-cupich-interview-questions-cardinal-mccarrick-allegations-491926591.html">https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/c ... 26591.html">https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/cardinal-cupich-interview-questions-cardinal-mccarrick-allegations-491926591.html

"The Pope has a bigger agenda," Cardinal Cupich said. "He's got to get on with other things, of talking about the environment and protecting migrants and carrying on the work of the church. We're not going to go down a rabbit hole on this....Quite frankly they also don't like him because he's a Latino."



So here is the logic--Covering up for and enabling a child molestor doesnt matter as long as you push "climate change" and try to flood western countries with third world immigrants.  And to top it off, don't forget the phony race card thrown in at the end, that's the icing on the turd cake.



the corruption of the leadership of the catholic church and leftist insanity on full and open display.

Climate alarmists should be allowed to molest children. Cardinal Cupich should be excommunicated.

Yep, Worse defense imaginable.   with absurd thinking like this,this guy is not fit to pick up garbage by the road for a living, much less be a person of religious importance.  



I think there are a lot of lefties out there who have this view of right and wrong--if you take up for leftist causes you are excused of even the worst behavior.   antifa, blm and people like this cardinal are prime examples of this sick, twisted thinking.

In 2003, The Boston Globe won a Pulitzer Prize for its reporting on a massive sex abuse cover-up inside the Roman Catholic Church, led by the archdiocese of Boston. The Pulitzer board praised the newspaper's "courageous, comprehensive coverage of sexual abuse by priests, an effort that pierced secrecy, stirred local, national and international reaction and produced changes in the Roman Catholic Church." Hollywood made the Oscar-winning movie Spotlight about the effort.



In 2018, Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, former Vatican ambassador to the United States, released an 11-page memo alleging that Pope Francis and other top members of the Vatican had reinstated Cardinal Theodore McCarrick to a public position despite credible allegations of sexual abuse of seminarians and minors. The memo rocked the Catholic Church; Pope Francis refused to comment; other sources came forward to back Vigano's claims.



Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago made the near-unbelievable claim that Pope Francis shouldn't comment, since he has "a bigger agenda. He's got to get on with other things, of talking about the environment and protecting migrants and carrying on the work of the church. We're not going to go down a rabbit hole on this."



So, did the press leap to investigate Vigano's claims? Did they demand answers from Pope Francis?

Did we see the same type of courageous, comprehensive coverage of Francis' activities that we saw from the Globe team circa 2003?

Of course not.

Not even being against plastic straws???? (see next post)

[Wazzzup]

right out of the "you can't make this shit up" file--



Thus far the SJW pope has nothing to say about the serious allegations that he covered up for a child molestor.,  Apparently, because he had so much to say about a much more important issue--plastic straws (yes seriously)



VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis wants concrete action to combat the "emergency" of plastics littering seas and oceans.



Francis made the appeal in a message Saturday to galvanize Christians and others to work to save what he hails as the "marvelous," God-given gift of the "great waters and all they contain."



He said efforts to fight plastics litter must be waged "as if everything depended on us."



The pope also denounced as "unacceptable" the privatization of water resources at the expense of the "human right to have access to this good."



Environmental protection is a priority of his papacy.[/quote]yep to this pope, child molestation is no big deal, but plastic straws are an emergency!!!
