Cardinal Raymond Burke, Pius XIII, already telling Inept Benedict XVI He is Wrong
| Cardinal Ray "Fabulous" Burke - unofficial Vatican Fasionista |
In the ongoing War on Laity, Nuns and Butlers, the next
American (CIA) Pope is telling Benedict XVI via his stooge Secretary of State Bertone
what is and what is not kosher in Catholic doctrine.
The third document is a letter to Bertone from Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke, an American who is head of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura — in essence, the Vatican's chief justice. It is marked "highly confidential" and registers Burke's dismay that Benedict had approved the liturgy of a controversial lay group known as the NeoCatechumenal Way, which its critics contend violates the prescribed protocol for the Catholic Mass. "I believe that approval of such liturgical innovations ... does not seem consistent with the liturgical teachings of the Pope," Burke wrote.

Next Papal Election - Fix is in? - Cardinal Bertone
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/05/31/us-vatican-butler-bertone-idUSBRE84U0R820120531
Among the mishaps on Bertone's watch, the new archbishop of Warsaw had to quit in 2007 one hour before his installation because he had spied for the communist-era police. This was known in Poland but the pope was long kept in the dark.
In 2009, Catholics, Jews and German politicians rounded on Benedict after he rehabilitated four rebel bishops, including one who was a notorious Holocaust denier. The shocked pope had to admit Curia officials had not done a quick search on him on the Internet, where his extreme-right views were on full display.
According to leakers quoted anonymously in the Italian media, the trigger for the campaign was the last consistory in February where an unusually high number of Italians and Curia officials were made cardinals who will vote for the next pope.
Bertone is not the frontrunner to succeed Benedict - Milan Cardinal Angelo Scola is often mentioned as the best-placed - but the way he has strongly promoted his allies has led to suspicions he wants to play a role when the voting takes place.
"The most delicate power balances in the Vatican are obviously at stake," La Stampa wrote.
Ronald Reagan Birth Certificate - Invalid
I know the Ronald Wilson Reagan is supposed to give conservatives a hard on by the mere mention of his god-like name. But give me a break.
They have this invalid Birth Certificate of
RWR on a wall at his Presidential Museum in California. Just look at it. Handwritten on a blank State of Illinois form
no doubt stolen and fenced to the
museum.
Let's be honest folks. You cannot get a driver’s license or a first time Passport
using a faked document like the above.
Which leads to the next question. Where was Ronald Reagan really born?
South Africa?

Catholic Charities – an Oxymoron?
I believe the Prince Bishop Dolan the other day was on
the Martin Bashir news hour on MSNBC and threatened to close shop on his NYC
Charity racket if the black man in the White House did not give into his
imperial demands for privilege and entitlement and the right to deny female
employees chemical/medications also known as contraception.
As I understand it, taxpayer money is used for some
social services and or charities and administered by Dolan’s charity racket
that gets to skim off a percentage of the cash as profit - fees.
In a way, I do not know how all this got started, the
church in the secular social services “charity” distribution stuff.
Everything in NYC seems to have to function and operate along the mob business model with the alpha organization getting a cut before distribution to the
general population whether it be food, petrol, education or even charity.
It is a strange thing. I seem to remember forty years
back in Philly when I was still more or less Catholic (less) and I read about
the local annual Catholic Charities Appeal that was exclusively a charity by
Catholics only and for Catholics. I remember
reading at the time that the majority of the monies collected were going for construction
of nursing homes. The question arose as to why.
The answer dictum ex cathedra via Cardinal Krol was that the nursing
homes were needed to house the parents of priests and nuns. The premise being that the Charity had to
take care of these elderly people or else the priests and nuns would have to
exit their jobs and do so privately. And since it was post Vatican II, there
was a mass exodus to the doors already of the clergy and religious. Made perfect Catholic
sense at the time.
That charity these days to Catholics as a base is paid
for by secular tax dollars and beyond that “charity” goes to non-Catholics? Who
designed this fucked up Rube Goldberg charity system/racket? George Bush?
Fast forward forty years. I think I have read that the Prince Bishop
Dolan’s bailiwick and the mob’s Catholic bailiwick in Brooklyn are self-insured
in the healthcare thingy – cutting out corporate healthcare insurance middle men. Strange that Prince Bishop Dolan wants the
Prez to drop a standard that his employees might demand under self-insurance.
This whole social services thing, administered with add ons to
the Catholic Charities business model and organization, mixes a small few percentage
points of Catholic money with a majority percentage of secular taxpayer money and it is
still called Catholic Charities. Why is
that?

Lunatics in Indiana Prosecute Attempted Suicide Victim for Death of Fetus – Bei Bei Shuai - Heartland (Heartless) Justice
美国华人女子自杀未成 却被控告谋杀腹中胎儿
Bei Bei Shuai took rat poison when her boyfriend left
her, leading to the death of their unborn child. Now she's facing life in
prison.
When her baby Angel died in her arms at 1.30am on 3 January
2011, Bei Bei Shuai was so distraught she was instantly transferred to the
mental health wing of the Methodist hospital in Indianapolis. Grief stricken
and under heavy sedation, she was unaware that within half an hour of her
baby's death a detective from the city's homicide branch had arrived at the
maternity ward and had begun asking questions.
While Shuai was embarking on a journey into bereavement
that continues to this day, the Indianapolis authorities were also setting out,
albeit along a very different path. On 14 March last year Shuai was arrested
and taken into custody in the high-security Marion County prison, where she was
held for the next 435 days, charged with murdering her foetus and attempted
feticide. If convicted of the murder count she faces a sentence of 45 years to
life.

Stalin Show Trial for Pope’s Butler Likely – Medieval Justice
![]() |
| Crows vs. Doves - Vatileaks |
(The Italian Press has labeled the Leakers in the Vatileaks Scandal as Crows. To others who seek justice and transparency, the leakers are labeled as Doves.)
(Reuters) - The Vatican's justice system
harks back to medieval times and is unlikely to provide the pope's butler with
fair treatment after his arrest for leaking confidential documents, according
to a French lawyer involved in a previous case in the Holy See. Luc Brossollet is not involved in the
so-called "Vatileaks" case shaking the papacy but he said his
personal experience suggested the Vatican's judiciary is under the thumb of the
Holy See and allows scant regard for the rights of defendants.
Brossollet
was lawyer for the mother of Cedric Tornay, a young soldier in the Swiss Guard,
the Pope's personal protection unit, who was found dead in May 1998 in a
Vatican apartment alongside the bodies of the corp's commander and his wife.
"The
Vatican does not have a modern, democratic judicial system that guarantees the
defendant's rights. We are back to the Middle Ages. Even the Inquisition had
some rules, but they don't have any. They just do as they wish,"
Brossollet told Reuters by telephone from Paris.
"The
Vatican promotes the respect of human rights anywhere in the world, but it does
not adhere to the same principles in its own courtyard," he said. "I
think that poor butler is being detained arbitrarily."…
"I doubt that the butler's defense
lawyer will ever have access to the full documents in the case,"
Brossollet said, adding that Tornay's mother still had not been able to obtain
access to her son's judicial files after 14 years.
Brossollet said that throughout the
Swiss Guard case, he and his co-defender Jacques Verges - whose clients have
included a Nazi war criminal and a Khmer Rouge leader - were refused permission
to argue their case before Vatican officials.
Only a handful of lawyers are allowed
to work in the Vatican, and those who are not on that list must win special
approval to do so.
"There is no independence, no
separation of powers, and the judiciary will never go against the wishes of the
Holy See. It's the archaic, unaccountable system of a sovereign prince,"
Brossollet said.
Deadbeat Cardinal Dolan Hid Assets with the Dead in Cemetery Trust
This is all old stuff and perhaps sour grapes and probably a
federal crime if you could find a prosecutor with the balls, using R.I.C.O.
laws, to challenge the creative bookkeeping of Timmy Dolan to hide assets with
the dead in order to cheat child abuse victims out of just compensation for
their suffering and ordeal of having been victims of the RCC's delusional (not of Jesus) Celibacy Sexual Mask practice.
Marek was referring to the Beneficial Interest in
Cemetery Perpetual Care Trust, a pivotal issue in the proceedings.
NCR provided a copy of the hearing transcript to Jack
Ruhl, a professor of accountancy at Western Michigan University who has done
extensive research on diocesan financial statements. Ruhl is also a 1978
graduate of Worsham College of Mortuary Science in Wheeling, Ill., and was a
licensed funeral director in Michigan for several years before earning his
doctorate in accountancy at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland.
Referring to the transcript, Ruhl told NCR: “When Marek
says, ‘We don’t own the trust’, I would ask: Then why does the trust appear as
an asset on the archdiocesan balance sheet? The definition of an asset is
something that provides future economic benefit. When the archdiocese
classified the [cemetery] trust account on their balance sheet as an asset,
they acknowledged that the trust provides future benefit. The things we
laypeople call assets -- our homes, cars, investment funds -- means that we own
them, and to say otherwise in this case is misleading.”
On the 2007 archdiocesan balance sheet, Ruhl explained,
the asset account with the largest balance, at $59.9 million, has a specific
title: “Assets designated for future care of cemeteries and mausoleums, primarily
cash and investments.”
In contrast, the 2007 balance sheet shows an asset
account called “Beneficial Interest in Cemetery Perpetual Care Trust” with a
zero balance.
“In other words, they zeroed out one account and
transferred most of the funds to a new account,” Ruhl explained. “From an
accounting standpoint, all Dolan did was rename the assets. It was a shell
game.”

The End Days of the Anti-Semite Pope Benedict the German
![]() |
| You people remind me of the good old days of my youth. |
The Vatican has long been said by those who know
it to be a nest of vipers. But, recently, the poison has been laid bare for
everyone to see as leak after an embarrassing leak has revealed an institution
at war with itself.
Already
this year we've read about documents warning of a death threat against the
Pope, widespread nepotism and corruption, exiled whistleblowers, gay smear
campaigns and embarrassing revelations about the Vatican's tax affairs….
Another
Vatican watcher, Robert Mickens of The Tablet, has a simpler take the Holy
See's woes: "It's arrogance. The people in charge still think the Vatican
is above ordinary laws."
Observers
also point to the Vatican's decision to censure nuns in the US for daring to
"disagree with or challenge positions taken by the bishops" on key
social issues.
"All
these things are symptoms of a bigger problem. The structure of the Vatican -
which is an absolute monarchy - is no longer suitable for the modern
world," says Mickens….
The Pope's overtures to the extremist and anti-Semitic
Society of Saint Pius X's, with which he shares a love of traditional Catholic
Mass, is thought to have angered many Church figures….

Why Catholicism Does Not Matter – The Growing Vatican Meltdown
The embarrassing end of Christianity also known as
Catholicism is melting down around its potentate idol king in the city of Rome.
The struggle for power in the waning months of Benedict the
German’s administration revolves about scurrying around the hallways and
ferreting away blackmail documents about the closeted sexuality of a celibate
clergy army. Celibate means “not married”. It does not mean “chaste” and or “honest”.
The attempt by Joe the Pope to rig the next papal election
and give it to his official stooge for decades Secretary of State Bertone is in
question. A moot point?
question. A moot point?
One recent rumor coming out of damage control central,
Cardinal Bertone’s office, is the banning of all mobile cell phones in the Magic Kingdom and their
ability to photograph documents and record conversations and sex sessions among
the “celibate” clergy of the Vatican.
Who needs the Swiss Guards to protect dirty little sex trafficking secrets anymore? Quite impossible anyway in the age of Internet.
Blackmail and promotions among closeted Vatican clergy is in great question in this modern technical age, like at no other time in the history.
Who needs the Swiss Guards to protect dirty little sex trafficking secrets anymore? Quite impossible anyway in the age of Internet.
Blackmail and promotions among closeted Vatican clergy is in great question in this modern technical age, like at no other time in the history.
Marriage equality however will empty the Catholic Church of
it closeted gay clergy in the next decade. The truth will set you free and Catholic free as well.
That is why Catholicism Does Not Matter.
It is based on an obsolete labor force much
the same as the antebellum South’s economy was based on the obsolete and
inefficient labor force of slaves.
Christianity will evolve back along the path that Jesus
envisioned and will no longer stray along any roads falsely leading to Rome.
Time Marches On!

Cardinal Dolan – Salad Days in Milwaukee – Paying off Pedophiles
![]() |
| Watch your back! |
Fat Timmy Dolan’s Simony-ious rise to power in the American
RC hierarchy started in his days of greasing the palms of perverts in Milwaukee
and cooking the books to cheat victims of the much loved and tolerated RC
clergy practice of pedophilia.
Victim/survivors of childhood sexual violence by clergy of
the Milwaukee archdiocese, including leaders of SNAP, the Survivors Network of
those Abused by Priests (SNAPnetwork.org/SNAPwisconsin.com) will release and
discuss newly uncovered minutes from a March 2003 Milwaukee Archdiocese Finance
council meeting where former Archbishop Timothy Dolan and Milwaukee auxiliary
Bishop Richard Sklba discuss using church funds to:
–pay off known priest pedophiles and child molesters $20,000
each to quietly leave the priesthood,
–set up a “restorative justice” program to prevent victims
from receiving compensation for injuries comparable to cases being filed
against the archdiocese of Milwaukee in California, and
–move millions of dollars from the archdiocese into a newly
invented “trust” to prevent compensating victims, the first of several such
“trusts” to be set up before the archdiocese declared bankruptcy in 2011.
Victims will also be emailing a letter Wednesday to current
Milwaukee Archbishop Jerome Listecki demanding:
–full financial disclosure of all payouts and “laicization”
bonuses to sex offender clerics,
–which charitable funds were used to pay-off clergy sex
offenders, and
–the release of the “Dolan Papers”, including all minutes of
the monthly Archdiocese Finance Council chaired by Dolan and auxiliary Bishop
Richard Sklba.

McGuckin, Bishop of Toowoomba – Assessment on Facebook – St Marys in Exile Brisbane
![]() |
| Where the bloody hell is Toowoomba? |
Monsignor Robert McGuckin has been appointed Bishop of
Toowoomba, the ACBC said in a media statement last night. Until now, Monsignor
McGuckin has been serving as Vicar General of the Diocese of Parramatta.
Since his ordination in 1973 he has served in several
parishes of the Archdiocese of Sydney and, from its inception in 1986, of the
Diocese of Parramatta, Bishop Anthony Fisher said in a statement.
Monsignor McGuckin said in a statement: "I’m honoured
and humbled to be appointed by Pope Benedict XVI as Bishop of Toowoomba.
"I would hope to build upon the good work of my
predecessors and look forward to working with the clergy, religious and
everyone in the diocese," he said. "I ask for your prayers as together
we strive to fulfill the mission entrusted us in building up the Kingdom of
God.”
In May 2011, Pope Benedict
removed his predecessor, Bishop William Morris, from his post in Toowoomba.
(Morris was removed on investigation
of and recommendation of such to Rome by Archbishop Charles Chaput, then of
Denver Colorado, presently of Philadelphia Pennsylvania.)

this?

I don't know the man but in the six or seven years I've been in the Parramatta Diocese in a position as an editor you tend to pick up the stories. I've also been getting some feedback since the announcement. The general assessment would seem to be "at least it's not a right wing nutter" which it could easily have been. As I wrote last night this is a pretty "safe" appointment. Bob McGuckin is reputed to be quite orthodox but in a very "safe, company man" sort of way. It certainly is not to be interpreted as any form of apology to the people of the Toowoomba Diocese for what was done to Bill Morris — no "by your leave"s there let alone "mea culpas" or "mea maxima culpas". The jury still seems to be out as to whether it is an attempt to rein in the Queensland Bishops and Church. Were there no suitable Queensland candidates worthy of elevation? Does it confirm the rumours circulating for ages that the Nuncio and those charged with responsibility for finding candidates are finding considerable reluctance on the part of the many to take on the responsibilities of a bishop, particularly in these large rural and outback dioceses? Toowoomba borders the Wilcannia-Forbes diocese and shares many similar challenges. The appointment appears to have the hallmarks of a leadership trying to "circle the wagons" in a deeply demoralised Church rather than an appointment that might be interpreted as one coming from a confident institutional leadership seeking to go out and embrace humanity and continue the "building of the kingdom". There seems little confidence that an appointment like this indicates the institutional leadership are anywhere remotely close to yet addressing the challenges facing Catholicism across Australia. Bob McGuckin is reported to be a fishing buddy of the Bishop of Broken Bay and the betting is that the consecrators will be Archbishop Coleridge (ex Canberra-Goulburn/Melbourne recently installed as Archbishop of Brisbane and Queensland Metropolitan), David Walker (Broken Bay) and Anthony Fisher (Parramatta) with the Archbishop the Principal Consecrator. As a couple of wags said "not a Queenland Bishop within Cooee". The positive vibe that's being drawn from the appointment is that it seems to indicate that Pell continues to be essentially sidelined as the dictator of all the episcopal appointments across this nation. His voice is listened to along with all the other bishops but he no longer has the sort of exclusive power he had for a few short years under JPII to be virtually dictating all appointments in this nation.

Cardinal Bertone’s Cleaning Lady Arrested
On the
search for all leaks and moles in the Vatican among the evil Laity, it is
rumored that Cardinal Bertone’s own cleaning lady has been arrested by Vatican
Police for stealing sensitive documents from the wastebasket next to the
Cardinal’s loo in his private Vatican apartment.
Some
questions from the press inquired as to where were the nuns assigned to the
Cardinal Bertone’s apartment and offices as cleaning ladies, their highest
possible function in the Church. The cleaning lady arrested was only a temp it was explained.
The nuns it
is reported are on a religious retreat in Las Vegas Nevada at the Church of
Sacred Pole Dance Monastery and Spa.

Vatican Bank (Institute for Religious Works) - God and the Mafia’s Private Bank

| Institute for Religious Works - Vatican Bank |
A US court
described it as “murky” [1] and the last President of the Vatican Bank admits
that it offers secret accounts to many who “have had problems with the law”.
There are no cheque books. Everything is done by transfer, by cash or in gold
bullion, so as to be untraceable. This is perfect for money-laundering. And, as
if the nine-metre thick walls of its tower in the Vatican did not offer enough
privacy, “God’s bank” appears to have quietly established itself in the
offshore financial centre of the Cayman Islands. [3]
As the bank
of an independent state, the Vatican Bank escapes scrutiny from Italy. In
addition, it has an impenetrable organisation, with three separate boards of
directors. And it boasts another curious feature: it is said to be “never
audited”, hence funds deposited there may simply vanish without a trace. [4]
The Vatican Bank even maintains that it adopts the remarkable practice of
destroying all of its records every ten years. [5]

Cardinals Struggle for Benedict’s Empty Seat – Senility – Sede Vacante?
The one
person who could testify as to Benedict’s present mental health, his personal
butler Paolo Gabriele, is incommunicado and his family in Vatican housing sit
under a sword of Damocles.
All this
while power struggles among many factions of Cardinals and Archbishops and
looting of the Vatican Bank is taking place under the nose of the Media.

how long Benedict’s reign is to last without a loyal faithful servant like Paolo
Gabriele at the side of the Pontiff to take care of his private interests, taste

Vatican leakers say cardinals among
plotters in scandal
The worst
crisis in Pope Benedict's pontificate deepened on Monday when Italian media
said at least one cardinal was among those suspected of leaking sensitive
documents as part of a power struggle at the top of the Church.
The scandal
exploded last week when within a few days the pope's butler was arrested for
leaking documents, the head of the Vatican's own bank was abruptly dismissed
and a book was published alleging conspiracies among the cardinals or
"princes of the Church".
Newspapers,
quoting insiders who had themselves leaked documents, said the arrested butler
was merely a scapegoat doing the bidding of more powerful figures in the
scandal, which has been dubbed "Vatileaks".

Vatican Struggle for Power Amidst Benedict’s Growing Senility

| The Bogias - Pope Alexander VI, his mistresses and bastard children |
Life imitates Art. The Borgias (Alexander VI)

wanes into extreme old age and senility.
The

the alleged leakers as saying the goal was to help the pope root out

On Saturday,
Paolo Gabriele, 46, Pope Benedict's personal butler, was formally charged with
stealing confidential papal documents. But leakers quoted by La Stampa, La
Repubblica and other media said the leaking plot went much wider.
"There
are leakers among the cardinals but the Secretariat of State could not say
that, so they arrested the servant, Paolo, who was only delivering letters on
behalf of others," La Repubblica quoted one alleged whistleblower as
saying.
The
Secretariat of State is run by Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the pope's powerful
right-hand man, and the scandal appears to involve a power struggle between his
allies and enemies, reminiscent of Renaissance conspiracies in the Vatican.

No Transparency – Carl A. Anderson – Vatican Bank IOR Scandal – Knights of Columbus
Supreme Knight Carl A. Anderson of the Knights of Columbus (rumored
to be the Catholic Masons), banker to mere popes, has spoken so eloquently on the
current Vatican Bank scandal.
(Certainly no bloviating ignoramus like Donald Trump or any other sleazebag GOP operative types.)
(Certainly no bloviating ignoramus like Donald Trump or any other sleazebag GOP operative types.)
Carl Anderson measures his words carefully, following years of dealings with the Vatican and prior to that, following his time spent working at the White House with Ronald Reagan. Of the four board members of the IOR, who on Thursday chose to oust their president Ettore Gotti Tedeschi with a no-confidence vote, Anderson, an American with placid manners, was the one who had to break to the volatile economist that his “progressively erratic personal behaviour” was not longer tolerated. Anderson could not even show Gotti Tedeschi the door, because the former president stormed out from the IOR building while his colleagues of IOR governing council were still deliberating whether to dismiss him. Thus the reasons for his dismissal, including the “odd behaviour” were written down in a harsh memorandum drafted by Anderson, listing Gotti Tedeschi’s many “failures”….
Anderson put the charge into context. He is one of the most famous personalities in the American Catholic world. As Supreme knight of the Knights of Columbus, he is the chief executive officer and chairman of the board of the world’s largest Catholic family fraternal service organization, which has more than 1.8 million members and which in the US is a true financial power in the life-insurance field, in 2010 the insurance companies of the Knights earned 7 billion dollars in life-insurance policies.

Pope’s Butler - Vatileaks - Paolo Gabriele - another Vatican Cedric Tornay Scapegoat?
Growing corruption scandal in the Vatican Bank and all they
can come up with is “the butler did it”, leaking info to the media.
Sounds like another Swiss Guard cover up – the Abu Ghraib
defense, a bone thrown to the media blaming the low man on the totem pole of
responsibility for crimes.
Vatican police have arrested Pope Benedict XVI's personal
butler following an investigation into the leaking of sensitive church
documents.
The butler, identified as Paolo Gabriele, 40, was held by
gendarmes after a special commission of three top senior cardinals had been
appointed by the Pope to identify the source of the leaks which have caused
severe embarrassment….
The Pope was said to be “shocked and saddened” at the constant
leaks and it led to him appointing the three cardinal commission and who worked
with the Vatican gendarmes which lead to the arrest.
Sources said that sensitive Vatican documents had been
recovered from father of three Gabriele’s home inside the Vatican, but some
have questioned if Mr Gabriele was perhaps being made a scapegoat.
Paolo Rodari, an expert on Vatican affairs, said: “I know
Gabriele. He is a nice guy but I don’t think he would be behind this. I think
he may have been imprudent and taken the odd document home but he is not the
main person.”
“If you ask me he has been made a scapegoat just to satisfy
the media. The documents found at his house were from the Pope’s personal
correspondence but a lot of the leaked documents have come from the Secretary
of State’s office and he would not have had access to those.”

and 20% of America divorces now citing Facebook in divorce cases will move on
in time to the next flavor of the month “social network” thing. But think about it.
American are so much more gung ho. And Facebook was originally designed exclusively for college kids, drugs, sex, alcohol, Spring Break. Bring on the self-produced porn in the
bathroom mirror and dirty steamy messages.
“Leisure time” activity, the pursuit of happiness?
Now we know why the Facebook stock scam is worth 104 billion dollars in capital on the stock market and why every pension fund
and 401k in America must have it in their stock portfolio even at a loss with
fees, fees, fees included.
Wall Street certainly
knows how to judge the moral compass or non-moral compass of America and
currently it is Facebook.
Facebook was by far the biggest offender, with 66 per cent of lawyers citing it as the primary source of evidence in a divorce case. MySpace followed with 15 per cent, Twitter at 5 per cent and other choices lumped together at 14 per cent.
The survey reflects the findings of a UK law firm last year showing that 20 per cent of its divorce petitions blamed Facebook flings….
The most common reason seemed to be people having inappropriate sexual chats with people they were not supposed to,’ said Mark Keenan, managing director of Divorce-Online.
Friends Reunited faced similar claims when it was launched to help people reconnect with old classmates, but the 23 million plus people now using Facebook in Britain means it is having a much bigger effect on rising divorce rates….
An American minister also made the headlines recently when he called Facebook a ‘portal to infidelity’ and insisted that his congregation delete their accounts after revealing that 20 couples attending his New Jersey church had been led astray through the site.
Rev. Cedric Millier, who runs the Living World Christian Fellowship Church in Neptune, New Jersey, said Facebook enabled spouses to reconnect with former lovers, leading to rows and bitterness.
But Rev. Miller was forced to take a leave of absence after his own non-Facebook transgressions were revealed in an admission that he took part in three-way sexual trysts in the past.
