'Should Be Hated With a Perfect Hatred'
Commenting on the recent revelations of sexual abuse in the
Catholic Church, specifically those of predator Archbishop
Theodore McCarrick and the cases detailed in the Pennsylvania
Grand Jury Report, several bishops and lay leaders have blamed a
"homosexual subculture" in the hierachy of the Church and called
for the removal of the priests, bishops, and cardinals involved
in that subculture.
Bishop Robert Morlino, head of the diocese of Madison, Wisc., in
an Aug. 18 letter, stressed that the Church must stop excusing
sin "in the name of a mistaken notion of mercy" and must express
more "hatred" toward sin. "What the Church needs now is more
hatred!" he said. "It is an act of love to hate sin and to call
others to turn away from sin."
"There must be no room left, no refuge for sin either within
our own lives, or within the lives of our communities," said the
bishop. "To be a refuge for sinners (which we should be), the
Church must be a place where sinners can turn to be reconciled.
In this I speak of all sin. But to be clear, in the specific
situations at hand, we are talking about deviant sexual almost
exclusively homosexual acts by clerics."
"Were also talking about homosexual propositions and abuses
against seminarians and young priests by powerful priests,
bishops, and cardinals," said the bishop. "We are talking about
acts and actions which are not only in violation of the sacred
promises made by some, in short, sacrilege, but also are in
violation of the natural moral law for all. To call it anything
else would be deceitful and would only ignore the problem
further."
After remarking on the "disgraceful" and "well-documented"
homosexual abuses committed by Archbishop McCarrick, Bishop
Morlino commented on the problem overall.
"It is time to admit that there is a homosexual subculture
within the hierarchy of the Catholic Church that is wreaking
great devastation in the vineyard of the Lord," he said. "The
Churchs teaching is clear that the homosexual inclination is
not in itself sinful, but it is intrinsically disordered in a
way that renders any man stably afflicted by it unfit to be a
priest. And the decision to act upon this disordered inclination
is a sin so grave that it cries out to heaven for vengeance,
especially when it involves preying upon the young or the
vulnerable."
"Such wickedness should be hated with a perfect hatred," said
Bishop Morlino. "Christian charity itself demands that we
should hate wickedness just as we love goodness. But while
hating the sin, we must never hate the sinner, who is called to
conversion, penance, and renewed communion with Christ and His
Church, through His inexhaustible mercy."
In his Aug. 22 "Testimony" letter, in which he calls for the
resignation of Pope Francis, Archbishop Carlo Vigano says it is
vital to remove the officials who covered for McCarrick but this
will not solve the deeply entrenched problem in the Church.
"The seriousness of homosexual behavior must be denounced,"
writes Vigano. "The homosexual networks present in the Church
must be eradicated, as Janet Smith, professor of Moral Theology
at the Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, recently wrote."
"'The problem of clergy abuse,' she wrote, 'cannot be resolved
simply by the resignation of some bishops, and even less so by
bureaucratic directives. The deeper problem lies in homosexual
networks within the clergy which must be eradicated,'" says
Vigano.
"These homosexual networks, which are now widespread in many
dioceses, seminaries, religious orders, etc., act under the
concealment of secrecy and lies with the power of octopus
tentacles, and strangle innocent victims and priestly vocations,
and are strangling the entire Church," he writes.
"I implore everyone, especially Bishops, to speak up in order to
defeat this conspiracy of silence that is so widespread, and to
report the cases of abuse they know about to the media and civil
authorities," says Vigano, who served as the Apostolic Nuncio to
the United States from 2011 to 2016.
As documented in the John Jay Report on sexual abuse in the
Catholic Church from 1950 to 2002, less than 5% of the predators
were pedophiles. In fact, 81% of the victims were male and 78%
were post-pubescent, "meaning that homosexuality -- not
heterosexuality or pedophilia -- was in play," said Catholic
League President Bill Donohue.
Cardinal Raymond Burke, a member of the highest court at the
Vatican and Patron of the Sovereign Miltary Order of Malta, said
it is obvious there is a poisonous "homosexual culture" among
some priests and bishops and that there "needs to be an open
recognition that we have a very grave problem of a homosexual
culture in the Church."
"It was clear after the studies following the 2002 sexual abuse
crisis that most of the acts of abuse were in fact homosexual
acts committed with adolescent young men," said Cardinal Burke
in an interview with Catholic Action for Faith and Family.
"There was a studied attempt to either overlook or to deny this."
"Now it seems clear in light of these recent terrible scandals
that indeed there is a homosexual culture, not only among the
clergy but even within the hierarchy," he said, "which needs to
be purified at the root. It is, of course, a tendency that is
disordered."
Pope Francis himself directed back in May that homosexuals
should be excluded from Catholic seminaries. "If there's even
the slightest doubt, better to not accept them [homosexuals]"
said the Pope, as reported in the New York Times.
Quoted in the same article was Michael Hichborn, head of the
Lepanto Institute. He said there must be a "complete and
thorough removal of all homosexual clergymen from the Church.
It's going to be difficult and will likely result in a very
serious priest shortage, but it's definitely worth the effort."
Columnist and best-selling author Pat Buchanan, a Catholic,
said, "it needs be stated clearly: This is a homosexual scandal.
Almost all of the predators and criminals are male, as are most
of the victims: the boys, the teenagers, the young seminarians."
"Applicants to the seminary should be vetted the way applicants
to the National Security Council are," said Buchanan. "Those
homosexually inclined should be told the priesthood of the
Church is not for them, as it is not for women."
The Catechism of the Catholic Church states, "Basing itself on
Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of
grave depravity, tradition has always declared that 'homosexual
acts are intrinsically disordered.' They are contrary to the
natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They
do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual
complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved."
