No, this isn’t about the UK and people getting arrested for silently praying in public, or Australia where people get arrested for praying for transgendered people.

Church Looks Ridiculous

Most Loved Anthony,
The topical spotlight today , that which focuses upon “bad” leadership, is the hysteria of climate advocacy (“love” for the common home ).While you advised of an intention, to shift away from any discussion of disordered theologies of gender confusion , as well as step away from speaking about those “inalienable rights” of “freedom” claimed as God given by anyone desirous of a new sovereign home in pursuit of economic opportunities ( illegal or not ) , your effort, while admirable, seems doomed from the start.
Notable those “virtues” ( love for the environment ,love for those with identity confusion, and love for those displaced & “homeless”) exist in a matrix of scientific and metaphysical entanglements; a composite whole rife with falsehoods and misrepresentations. In other words, in our present moment, to ecclesiastically separate one from the other , an impossibility to accomplish , BUT God !!! That said , I for one , congratulate you on your effort.
It is in this continuity of the hermeneutic I share my two cents worth of past identified recorded memories – those which contribute to the present whole.

It follows, intergenerational , this report from 2004 draws upon a documentation of leadership failures which date back to the 1960’s . For my family it is specific to The Archdiocese of Milwaukee, a great uncle priest who appearantly knew himself as a “sex educator”. For all laity this report could well be written, almost verbatim for any diocese, only changing names to “protect the innocent”. In our present moment this report might also be written “now”, as might illuminate the “rot”of every Archdiocese in USA for the year 2025. By extension, McCarrick tentacles of corruption ,have not ended by his death. The McCarrick “X factor” remains alive & active as continues to imbue all Church politics of money and charity; care for Mother Earth, care for oppressed victims motivated to “flee” their homes because of man made ( governance )
“overheating”, and compassion for those who discover themselves slaves to all manner of sexual perversions and proclivities.
While “old news”, it is a report worth reading , one which by “names” speaks to the insidious roots of evil infiltration, that which extends from the past into our present moment.
Blessings, Dr.Scott
