“A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying, 'You are mad; you are not like us.” ― St. Antony the Great

“The throne of Peter has a demonic spawn squatting on it, orchestrating Hell’s circus”
Reverend Father Dwight Longenecker |
Once upon a time there came to be the famous Vatileaks dossier edited by the cardinals Herranz, De Giorgi and Tomko on instruction of Benedict XVI in 2012.At the time it seemed to be a "Pandora's box", the precious guardian (according to Vatican experts and "mystery writers") of all the Vatican’s secrets.Suddenly ... poof! It disappeared! No journalist has ever invoked it again, no newspaper editor has demanded its publication in the name of a transparency which is always invoked but, in fact, never put into practice.According to commentators, “crows” [translator note: in Italian, the crow can signify a spy of sorts] no longer fluttered in the Vatican as of March 2013. Yes ... some sea-gulls circled round devouring poor defenseless pigeons, but not even a “crow's" shadow was to be seen.Even wide-mouthed “frogs” [translator note: similar to crow, frog can mean someone who was told something in confidence, but then betrays that confidence] always alert in the Pontificate of Benedict, had been poisoned and thrown into the swamp.The fresh breeze of spring (isn’t that true my lord Cardinals?) blew gently in the sacred palaces within the Leonine Walls.Until bang! Today it turns out that the “crows” and “frogs” are more alive than ever. They had simply hidden themselves for a while. Where? Who knows ... you should ask those who are always in contact with these animals.We note, however, the paradox: the “crows” of Benedict acted for the "good" - they wanted to clean house, seeking on the outside what they could not get inside. The little animals of Francis, however, are to be censored: they are mean and smelly, these crows opposed themselves to the cleaning job.If we want to take ourselves for a ride [translator: mock ourselves] and tell fairy tales amongst ourselves, it’s OK, but the whole situation is comical: we are dealing with people who commit crimes just like in 2011 and 2012 (even before actually).And I do not think much has changed since then: the IOR [tr.: Vatican Bank] is still there (of course! Now ATMs work!), the Curia is still there and has not undergone "slimming", and scandals big and small still abound. The "perception" has certainly changed, but all this is certainly the mass media’s merit.Since we returned to the situation that existed before March 2013 why not dust off the famous dossier of the three cardinals? Why not ask for its publication?What sense is there to keep it secret? If you really want to clean up, ALL the names should come out: the internal instigators [translators: legal term, it means the person who orders others to execute of a crime] and the external perpetrators. Whoever they are ...
Is Jalsevac right? My experience at the CCCB
Jalsevac makes some very serious allegations about the Catholic Church's destructive role in the battle against abortion in Canada. Is he right?
As someone who worked at the CCCB headquarters for five years from 2005-2009, and had an inside view of the CCCB as Assistant Director of the Catholic Organization for Life and Family, I suspect that Jalsevac is shedding light on a real and scandalous problem with the Canadian Catholic Church.

The permanent sulk
Most people are not aware that the CCCB holds a petty adolescent grudge against Campaign Life Coalition and its news organization, LifeSiteNews - Steve Jalsevac's employer.
This grudge was one of the first things that I noticed when I first joined COLF in the summer of 2005. For instance, I was (unofficially) discouraged from circulating LifeSiteNews stories by email to the Bishops and Secretariat, or referencing LifeSiteNews as a source in internal documents. LifeSiteNews was considered extreme and lacking in credibility, and there was distrust towards the leadership of Campaign Life.

It's all about the money
The Catholic Church in Canada lives in fear. Not of the culture of death, but of Canadian tax laws.
The Canadian Income Tax specifies that charities must cap their involvement in political activity at 10% of their total activity. The Catholic Church is a registered charity, and it makes a lot of money with that status. Many parishioners all across Canada donate to their local parishes each Sunday with the understanding that they will receive tax deductions for their donations. How many people would stop donating, or would donate substantially less, if the Church was no longer able to provide them with tax receipts?
