Paolo Gabriele and the Vatican Faux Trial
I have not rushed into print with my
opinion about the so-called trial of the Bishop of Rome’s butler.
The whole thing from the start was a
bit of I don’t know what to make of it.
It was no Stalin Show Trial. It was a faux trial and we already knew the
verdict.
Paolo is a dupe in a huge game of
front office chicken politics between the unofficial Vatican Baseball teams of
the Crows and the Doves. That’s American baseball BTW and not the Italian
version. Whatever.
The Doves may or may not be what is
left of what passes for moral forces left in the front office of the Roman
Church founded in the fourth century by the emperor/god Constantine the Great
aka saint Constantine.
The recent leaks coming out of the
Vatican have been a source of great embarrassment to the ruling brass of the
extremely old and extremely senile group of politburo members holding on for
dear life for just one more crack at the papacy even if it is for a few months
or a few years and not unlike the string of short term Soviet flunkies that
wanted some reward at the end of meaningless lives as institutional players
and or politicians.
The end games of dead or dying institutions and or obsolete mission statement belief systems.
They had to make it look like they
were on top of all the leaks to the press about corruption, cronyism, buggery
and real leaking plumbing (faucets) all over the artificial Disneyland created by
Mussolini in 1929 to put a fence around and hopefully an end to interference in
Italian politics by the pimps, bankers and hangers-on that run the Vatican
and have done so since day one around the year 325 C.E..
The crows and or the ravens, the dark
party, the one in power that has no power and cannot manage anything. As an
aside, the independent mob in the USA that feign allegiance as they close churches
and sell off valuable real estate in places like New York, Philadelphia,
Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco (follow the money btw), well they, that
burkite wing of the Crows, are an entity unto themselves these days under the feeble
Brezhnev like leadership of the current fading figurehead ratzo wing etc.
How do you spell Yuri Andropov, Tarcisio Bertone?
The “New Engelization” = the "New Perestroika". LOL (in fact – LMAO)
Anyway the leaks are as much of an embarrassment
to the Crows as is the possibility of real whistle blowers that could put half
the Vatican front office in jail should they be able to jump over the oxymoron
of Italian justice and get an EU tribunal going on the money laundering alone
with the cartels etc. thing.
The butler faux trial ended on a
Saturday which tells me that it was unimportant news in the media cycle and
they wanted to forget the whole thing.
The opus dei people have been running around spying on everyone with the
heat on so to speak now that they got the goods on a rather mediocre public servant
who had been entrusted to keep his eyes on loose valuables hanging around the
Bishop’s private apartment. Handing valuables or documents back over when asked
for them, after and while his wife babysat them in his private home space.
Too much house
hoarding, and not in the Gabriele Household, as so much hoarding of blackmail
documents and other juicy video goodies and audio tapes in the Secretary of
State’s overcrowded private household space – OMG!
They, the opus dei plumbers, may have caulked or puttied the
windows or the real leaking plumbing (faucets) and they are putting up air raid curtains to
cut off all lights from view at night, but the truth is that the Holy Spirit blew
town decades ago with John XXIII and Vatican II.
Fighting over the last pieces of cheese in a
post-apocalyptic Roman Church world is all the rats, ravens, crows or even
doves have left to do once the H.S. flew the coop.
Which BTW resides not in a place or
an institution anymore but in the Hearts of the true followers of Christ.

Pope Benedict’s Racial, No I Mean Nuremburg type Catholic Laws on Marriage Equality
 |
| Racial Requirements for Marriage Equality on the way to the Registry Office - 1935 |
Running into some interesting visuals while
doing some historical research looking for something else, the thought occurred
to me how so very much like the 1930s German Nuremburg Racial Laws are the
current main-stream currents and opinions of some churches in their almost political
fanaticism regarding racial sexual marriage equality.
That somehow, certain senile old men, who
claim that they and their parents hated the national socialists in the German homeland in the 1930s and 1940s (Notice how I am trying to not invoke Godwin’s Law here with
a certain adjective) are blindly taken at their word and have also somehow modeled their dictatorial vision of what
Adolph Jesus wanted for the human race in the current quadrant space of modern
history.

| Do you count on the current Socio/Politico/Economico Global Spreadsheet? |
That with so much of humanity already
discounted on the new Global Corporate Spreadsheet these days, it is only a
matter of time before anyone of us, no matter what our degree or tastes in
sexuality, 10%, 25%, 50% etc. that sooner of later a recycled chart from the
Nuremburg Laws will get reused with English words inserted in it (a chart attachment to that spreadsheet) and along with a
FoxFauxNews type explanation, footnote, of why a once secure percentage of the 47%, as
an example, are now ready for the ovens at the Solent Green for profit factory
newly installed in your town, next to the Wal-Mart of course, in an easy to find
location.
Report tomorrow at Zulo 1100 hundred
hours. Have a nice eternity.

Into a Mirror, Darkly - Archbishop Cordileone - San Francisco
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
If I speak in the tongues of men and angels,
but have not love,
I have become sounding brass or a tinkling symbol.
And if I have prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains,
but have not love, I am nothing.
And if I dole out all my goods, and
if I deliver my body that I may boast
but have not love, nothing I am profited.
Love is long suffering,
love is kind,
it is not jealous,
love does not boast,
it is not inflated.
It is not discourteous,
it is not selfish,
it is not irritable,
it does not enumerate the evil.
It does not rejoice over the wrong, but rejoices in the truth
It covers all things,
it has faith for all things,
it hopes in all things,
it endures in all things.
Love never falls in ruins;
but whether prophecies, they will be abolished; or
tongues, they will cease; or
knowledge, it will be superseded.
For we know in part and we prophecy in part.
But when the perfect comes, the imperfect will be superseded.
When I was an infant,
I spoke as an infant,
I reckoned as an infant;
when I became [an adult],
I abolished the things of the infant.
For now we see through a mirror, darkly, but then face to face.
Now I know in part, but then I shall know as also I was fully known.
But now remains
faith, hope, love,
these three;
but the greatest of these is love.

Perversion (love?) Among the Ruins – Ascension RC Church – Harrowgate Philadelphia
 |
| Ascension RC Church - Harrowgate Philadelphia - Out of Business |
One of the strangest footings along a
pathway of historical research, looking for a historical geographical reference,
yesterday, landed me back where I had written a piece about a dying decaying parish
adjacent to the parish I grew up in, in Harrowgate Philly, of that of Ascension
Church and Parish.
Trying to disseminate the closing story
which apparently came very quickly and in a press release, so typical of
Charles Chaput, like a thief in the night mentioned somewhere in the Gospels
was an overlay story of BTW, the pastor of Ascension already on one admin leave
and cleared by one of Charles Chaput’s Blue Ribbon Citizen’s Committees of
Justice had to be put back on admin leave because the Blue Ribbon Commission
missed something when they gave him a clean bill of health to be around
children etc.
Citizen Robespierre Chaput offers no
explanations, just a press release. "Off with Ascension's head!"
And
since I was trying to disseminate two stories I missed the timeline which was
that Pastor Michael Chapman had been re-relieved from his duties(?) among the ruins
of a once great city upon a hill church and Parish in old white working class
Philly and ten days later the Archdiocese padlocked the place with less than a
week’s notice for the sole office worker to pack her box and a few other
miserable boxes of church records and become unemployed after 25 years of
service etc.
Want a mass? God is that way. Go 1.7 miles that way or another
mile or so that way.
I should say that the racism in Philly has
always been there. The neighborhood where I grew up was quite white, catholic and
lower working class Irish. That the new
mix of 50% Hispanic and Black probably changes nothing in terms of the human
condition there. Those conditions always
were poor to none for the inhabitants.
That I could blame the Hunky Cardinal Krol
for ignoring race relations in favor of his politics to become the first Polish
pope. I could also blame the traditionally
bigoted Italians, the Guinea Cardinals “Small Tony” Belivacqua or Justin “Big
Frank” Rigali as his Swiss Vatican Guard male friends used to refer to him when
he was their chaplain, but I won’t blame anybody. It is what it is.
It is the modern disease of the American
middle class that once you manage to blow, with sex or drugs or frat house
connections, a foot over the threshold of the front office, get your toe into
that front office cocoon, the back office, the little people, the rest of
humanity can just go to hell as you party and count your crony Bonuses etc.
Just the same way Jesus played the
establishment game in his day. Right?
Whatever.
Anyway, I do not think that many people
read my piece about Ascension in which I actually quoted Pastor Mike – geezus
mary and joseph.
The Rev. Michael Chapman,
56, was originally placed on administrative leave following allegations of
sexual abuse of minors last spring . Chapman, who is pastor of Ascension
of Our Lord Parish in Philadelphia, was placed on leave in March 2011 for an
alleged violation of archdiocese standards of ministerial behavior and
boundaries.
After an investigation, Archbishop Charles Chaput found Chapman suitable for ministry in May 2012. But before Chapman's return, the Archdiocese received new allegations of sexual abuse of minors against Father Chapman in May. The alleged abuse reportedly occurred approximately 30 years ago. The Archdiocese immediately reported the new allegations to law enforcement and delayed Father Chapman's return to the parish.

(Sept 26) Archbishop Charles Chaput has approved plans to close
the Ascension of Our Lord Parish in Philadelphia's Harrowgate section, the Archdiocese
announced today.
Parishioners can now go to either Holy Innocents Church, about 1.7
miles away, Visitation, B.V.M. Parish, less than a mile away, the Archdiocese
said in a statement.
It said the church will not be maintained as a worship site since
the 98-year-old building requires at least $3 million in physical improvements.
The closure, effective Oct. 1, is the latest in
a series by the Archdiocese as it deals with declining enrollments and rising
maintenance costs for aging church buildings.

Romney Mormon Gay Hate Agenda Reflected in His Retaliation Against PBS – W/Sesame Street’s Recent Divorce from Chick-fil-A
 |
| Romney an Ally in Chick-fil-A's Culture Wars Involving Big Bird and Sesame Street |
Got to keep the fanatics and haters on the Right happy Mitt?
Kill off Big Bird and the other Muppets on Sesame Street as part of retaliation
of the far right fundamentalists organized under the banner of the Mormon Hate Campaign against gays and Marriage Equality?
Go BainSource yourself Asshole!
The Jim Henson Co., owner of the widely promoted Muppets characters, says
it won’t be working with Chick-fil-A any more based on the statement of Christian
faith from the restaurant chief that he does not endorse homosexual marriage.
“The Jim Henson Company has celebrated and embraced diversity and
inclusiveness for over 50 years and we have notified Chick-Fil-A (sic) that we
do not wish to partner with them on any future endeavors,” said a Facebook
statement from the company. “Lisa Henson, our CEO, is personally a strong
supporter of gay marriage and has directed us to donate the payment we received
from Chick-Fil-A (sic) to GLAAD [ a homosexual promotion organization].”

Big Bird’s Future in Doubt – Romney Plans to BainSource Him to the 47%
Outsourcing
Jobs is one end of the human downsizing equation.
BainSoucing
is the collateral damage end of making workers like Bird Bird workless,
homeless and being made obsolete (47%) for a profit. So, why are these Muppet losers about to be dumped onto welfare smiling?

Tell Me More Lies - Cardinal Dolan

| Tell me lies. |
The photo inspired me to find the right musical video to fit. I believe this picture was the Cardinal's last appearance, unscreened performance, to the press before his trip to Ireland in early June and escape from his Bishop's Bonus Deal for his pet pedophiles in Milwaukee scandal breaking in the news at the time. Never did quite get around to finish the comments on that one, did he? Tell me lies. Tell me sweet little lies...
