How Moral is Pope?

A dynamic, handsome Franciscan friar in a brown robe serving as the spiritual director for the retreat and agreed to begin counseling Pat Bond on her marriage. "One day, she said, as she was leaving the priest’s parlor, he pulled her aside for a passionate kiss." For the next five years she and the priest, the Rev. Henry Willenborg, carried on an intimate relationship.

That relationship produced a son, who the Franciscans acquiesced to support, with the stipulation that she sign a confidentiality agreement -- that son is now 22 years old, and his story is now public.

Consider that this is the Catholic Church -- whose Bible dictates that anyone who has sex with a divorced woman is an adulterer. Therefore Rev Willenborg knowingly instigated an adulterous relationship which the Franciscan Order condoned and financially supported.

It turns out that Father Willenborg was also having an affair with another woman. Talk about respecting vows of celibacy. Over 25 years, an organization called Good Tidings had been contacted by nearly 2,000 women who said they were involved with priests, many who had signed child support and confidentiality agreements like Ms. Bond’s.

So, absent any evidence that these priests were excommunicated and evicted from their offices, we have a clear image of the true morality of the Catholic Church. Noting that none of this could occur without the approval of those in charge of the money -- it is clear that these violations of morality are condoned by the Vatican and a succession of Popes. Clearly, the whole organization is built on immorality and hypocrisy -- derived from a total disregard for the express words of Christ.

It's not even a matter of secondary interpretation -- the adultery violates Christ and is therefore anti-Christ; the celibacy violation is a direct violation of oath and imposed Church Doctrine. The beauty of it all is that there are millions of people who follow -- and financially support -- the anti-Christ practices and still believe they will receive some form of salvation.

Don't you just love human consistency?
