Reebok Wicket Keeping

But I, Cardinal Bertone, I have not heard a single word of love out of his mouth


was inevitable that the church would bring forward a defense of the status quo by trampling the rights of someone. Never mind the media lynching that words, like spit venom, from Cardinal Bertone, who is visiting this week in Santiago, Chile, sexual minorities will have on the whole world, the church has chosen to confuse people's minds instead of giving a response appropriate to their crimes.
So Bertone choose to say a few simple phrases consciously, knowing that this will distract attention from serious cases of pedophilia that have invested with all its drama, the men of the church.
"There is no connection between pedophilia and celibacy that priests are subjected, and instead this kind of sexual diseases could be related to homosexuality." Those are heavy words of Cardinal Bertone, who were waiting for words to be spoken for a long time, words designed to confuse the media, to raise a fuss, to confuse the minds of the followers of this religion that deals with more power and less love.
Throughout this sad story there has been no word of comfort for the victims of abuse by pedophile priests, there was a single action of mercy, no mea culpa that would have eased the position of the church.
No. There has been talk of conspiracy, of senseless attacks on the church and the pope. The power that tries to keep it. But I have heard no word of love. None.
Then the exit strategy. You can not touch because celibacy would admit that they have done something wrong and then you give homosexuals thrown to the lions. Needless to explain the difference between pedophilia and homosexuality, I am sure that Cardinal Bertone knows it well. But the need to insinuate doubt, look for a scapegoat. The main task now is salvage and download their own faults on others.
Nobody has ever allowed to make the equation = pedophile priest. Yet the church continues to imply an idea ill of homosexuality. They will say that pedophile priests were homosexual infiltrators?
The ideological revulsion against the violence of some characters is strong, it must react quickly to these allegations.
also through legal means. But we must react, in a non-violent and peaceful, it should move now before the church, the voice of a cardinal, yet insinuate that evil lies in the nature homosexual.
The church has a great responsibility in cases of pedophilia. The dresses as a pedophile lamb and look for those places more suited to him in which to come into contact with victims. I find it absurd to even argue that a pedophile priest became because of celibacy, is a real nonsense. Many of these people choose to do work that brings them into contact with children. But the church did not ensure, not denounced, has hidden, minimized and concealed. And now that there is a bomb ready to explode in his hands need to download their own faults onto someone else.
not work that way, Cardinal Bertone. I have to pay for their crimes and their shortcomings, we must denounce, to watch and you have failed in its mandate should have the sensitivity and intelligence to ask for forgiveness. This is the meaning of religion. A sense that now many men of power within the church have lost sight of.
already guess that from both sides of the political reality from other Italian men of power will stand with Cardinal Bertone.
But these attitudes will not cover a reality that is before our eyes in all its horror. There were men, men wearing vestments and play important roles in the community, men whose task should be to take around the world the word of Christ, who have abused girls and boys. These men have nothing to do with homosexuality.
are pedophiles.
And there are other men, men who wear the same clothes as the previous ones, which have silted up and covered the violence against minors. Cardinal you can say whatever he wants against gay people, we know what is your thought about it and we know that our condition points out to us as the best sacrificial lambs, but I have not heard a single word of love to the victims of abuse by pedophile priests.
I did not hear an apology and I even saw tears of shame. I hear only your arrogance and your hatred.
