Attorney General says Boston Archdiocese sex abuse likely involved more than 1,000 victims...

"We hold the pastors of My Son's House, We hold them as being responsible for the fall of the children. Be ye warned now, My children, that woe to the man who has this responsibility upon his conscience and his soul. Scandals have been brought into the lives of your children. Perversion, homosexuality, immorality, perverted sex, My children - where shall you stop but at the abyss!" - Our Lady, December 7, 1977

BOSTON - Clergy members and others in the Boston Archdiocese probably sexually abused more than 1,000 people over a period of six decades, Massachusetts' attorney general said Wednesday, calling the scandal so massive it ''borders on the unbelievable.'' Reilly's report, the result of a grand jury investigation that explored whether church hierarchy should be charged criminally for turning a blind eye to allegations of abuse, said the archdiocese received complaints from 789 alleged victims in 45 cities and towns. However, when other sources are considered, the attorney general said, the abuse likely affected more than 1,000 victims from 1940 until today.

Cardinal Bernard Law, who resigned last December, ''bears the ultimate responsibility for the tragic treatment of children that occurred during his tenure,'' Reilly said in the 91-page report. The cardinal, he said, was ''generally aware'' of abuse ''even before arriving in Boston'' as its archbishop in 1984. ''But by no means does he bear sole responsibility. With rare exception, none of his senior managers advised him to take any of the steps that might have ended the systemic abuse of children.''

Despite the attorney general's scathing remarks about the archdiocese's handling of the crisis, no charges are to be filed because child-protection laws in place while abuses were taking place were too weak.

A spokesman for the archdiocese did not immediately return a call seeking comment. The sheer number of abuse allegations documented by investigators in Boston appears unprecedented, even amid a scandal that has touched dioceses in virtually every state and has prompted about 1,000 people to come forward with new allegations nationwide in the last year. Word had leaked out earlier in the week that church officials were unlikely to be charged, prompting a protest by alleged victims at Reilly's Boston office on Tuesday.

''How dare there be no indictments,'' said Kathleen Dwyer, 58, who said she was sexually abused by a priest at her church in Braintree in the early 1950s, when she was 7 years old. She was among two dozen protesters who demonstrated outside the attorney general's office. One protester carried a sign that read, ''They let children be raped. Their punishment: NOTHING.'' The investigation did not uncover any evidence of recent or ongoing sexual abuse of children. But Reilly said the investigation didn't find any information that would explain the drop-off in recent complaints.

''Given the magnitude of mistreatment and the fact that the archdiocese's response over the past 18 months remains inadequate, it is far too soon to conclude that the abuse has, in fact, stopped or could not reoccur in the future.'' Church hierarchy were faulted for knowing about the abuse but doing nothing to stop it or prevent it even though they had direct knowledge of widespread abuse. Reilly blamed it on an ''institutional acceptance of abuse'' and a massive failure by the church's leaders.

''They chose to protect the image and reputation of their institution rather than the safety and well-being of the children entrusted to their care. They acted with a misguided devotion to secrecy,'' the report says in its conclusion. ''And they failed to break their code of silence even when the magnitude of what had occurred would have alerted any reasonable, responsible manager that help was needed.''

The report is the result of a 16-month investigation into the scandal. Public outrage over the scandal which erupted over the past year prompted the state to enact a law making reckless endangerment of children a crime. Under the law, someone who fails to take steps to alleviate a substantial risk of injury or sexual abuse of a child can face criminal charges.

But during the time period when much of the abuse took place from the 1950s through the 1990s no such laws were on the books, and Reilly has said that prevented him from prosecuting church supervisors. Law resigned as archbishop in December, after nearly a year of criticism over his role in allowing abusive priests to remain in parish work. Hundreds of lawsuits that have been filed against the archdiocese led to a flood of personnel files being released offering a shocking catalogue of misconduct by priests.

In addition to Law, at least eight other top officials in the Boston Archdiocese were subpoenaed by criminal investigators to answer questions about their handling of complaints against priests, including the Rev. Thomas V. Daily, now a bishop in New York City; the Rev. Robert J. Banks, now bishop in Green Bay, Wis.; and the Rev. John B. McCormack, now bishop in Manchester, N.H. The archdiocese is facing more than 500 civil suits from alleged victims of clergy sex abuse. Church officials have repeatedly said they remain committed to working toward an out-of-court settlement.

There is an explanation for all this.

Reigning bishops have great influence in the appointment of future bishops. The prevalence of so many confirmed homosexual bishops, or bishops allowing homosexuality to spread in their seminaries and dioceses, can be traced to a homosexual-promoting power base within the NCCB itself. The existence of this power base explains why there has been such an extensive cover up of homosexual abuse in the Catholic Church in the United States, why there are openly homosexual seminaries operating with the encouragement of these same bishops, and why it has taken the secular media to bring enough heat on the bishops that they have to pretend they are doing something, in order to save face.

A very insightful article by Roman Catholic Faithful president Steven Brady explains just how these homosexual bishops came to power:

“Bernardin’s legacy to the American Church will be discussed and debated, quite possibly, for centuries. No one disputes his influence: as creator of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops and United States Catholic Conference; as a bishop-maker who, working with former Archbishop Jean Jadot, gave the American hierarchy its pronounced pro-gay orientation; as a subtle provocateur who nudged, consoled and empowered dissenters while professing his loyalty to his Roman superiors; as an architect of proposals to deconstruct the Roman liturgy, Catholic education and the all-important field of catechetics…. Bernardin used his influence, starting in 1968, as General Secretary of the U.S. Catholic Conference, to select bishops (many of whom are still ordinaries) who would (to put it charitably) condone and promote homosexuality as an acceptable lifestyle and tolerate the sexual abuse of children by priests.” (Read more…)

In a June 12, 2002 interview with WorldNetDaily, Paul Likoudis states:

"I think some of the bishops in this country are so committed to social acceptance of homosexuality that they don't care about anything else," Likoudis told WorldNetDaily. "That's their No. 1 thing in life, because that is what they are spending most of their resources on."

This horrendous situation in the United States begs the question: If there has been so much scandal, so many bishops destroying the Catholic Faith, why hasn’t Rome intervened and sacked these heretical, sodomite bishops?

This is the BIG question, and for many Catholics, they won’t even go there to try to answer it, because the answer is too horrible to imagine.

But Our Lady of the Roses does go there, and answers the question:

"My child, they converse of the secret that I gave at Fatima. It is a simple explanation. It could not be fully revealed because of the drastic nature of My message. How I warned and warned that satan would enter into the highest realms of the hierarchy in Rome. The Third Secret, My child, is that satan would enter into My Son's Church." - Our Lady, May 13, 1978

"We ask you from Heaven not to leave, not to create a schism from your main body in Rome. You must remain within My Son's Church and pray a constant vigilance of prayer. Satan and his agents have entered in full battle upon My Son's Church. Satan has entered into the highest ranks within My Son's Church and the world. He will manipulate powers, provincials, until he brings about a great chastisement, because man will not listen and mend his ways.” - Our Lady, February 10, 1977

"The agents of 666 now are loosed in Rome and have entered into the highest places of the hierarchy. It will be bishop against bishop and cardinal against cardinal, till all that remains will come forward out of the cleansing." - Jesus, July 25, 1977

St Bonaventure’s description of clerical scandal in the 13^th Century could well be applied to the state of the American hierarchy today:

“Church dignities were bought and sold, there did the princes and rulers of the Church assemble, dishonoring God by their incontinence, adherents of Satan, and plunderers of the flock of Christ ... the prelates, corrupted by Rome, infect the clergy with their vices; and the clergy, by their evil example of avarice and profligacy, poison and lead to perdition the whole Christian people.”

There are 4 Things You Must Have to Survive the End Times:

1.) The Douay-Rheims Holy Bible...

"I ask that all who hear My voice will take their Bibles, and if they do not have one, search, but find the right Bible, those printed not after 1965, My children." - Jesus, October 5, 1985
     "You must all obtain a copy of the Book of life and love, the Bible. Do not accept the new mods. Try to find in your bookstores the old Bibles, My children, for many are being changed to suit the carnal nature of man. I repeat, sin has become a way of life." - Our Lady, October 6, 1992
    "I must ask you all to read but a few short chapters a day now, the Book of life and love, your Bible. Knowledge must be gained for all the disciples of My Son, for you will be attacked by scientific minds. But do not be concerned what you will say to them when accosted, for the words will be given to you by the Spirit." - Our Lady, April 10, 1976
    The Douay-Rheims Bible was published in 1899. It is the official Bible of the Roman Catholic Church. Almost all other Bibles have been rewritten by Satan.   See: https://www.tldm.org/directives/d33.htm , https://www.tldm.org/directives/d415.htm and https://www.tldm.org/directives/d182.htm   If you don't have a Douay-Rheims Bible order it now!
