JP2 Army sex abuse widens within the Dutch Roman Catholic Church

It is important to see these real images where the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army thrived in other parts of the world. From 2002 to 2010, it was only an American problem, but now the JPIIPPA has erupted in Ireland, Germany, Austria, Italy and in the Netherlands. The Belgian Police days ago raided and confiscated ALL documents and files of the Catholic Archiocese of Maline-Brussels.

Those investigating child sex abuse within the Dutch Roman Catholic Church are facing an enormous job which is increasing by the day. Complaints are flooding in from around the country following initial revelations made by Radio Netherlands Worldwide and the NRC Handelsblad newspaper.

The first reports of abuse came from a boarding school in the eastern town of 's-Heerenberg - now allegations have been made involving Roman Catholic institutions across the Netherlands.

One of these was an expensive boarding school for the children of diplomats and the wealthy at Eikenburg near the southern city of Eindhoven.

Robert Chesal reports:

Dolf was ten years old when he was abused the first time at the Eikenburg boarding school. It happened shortly after he arrived and he says the perpetrator was his group leader, a Roman Catholic brother.

"After a few weeks, I was woken up one night. The brother took me out of the dormitory. I had to get down on my knees and he put 15 blankets over me. I sat there sweating for 45 minutes. Then I had to satisfy him. That happened was every week for a year. I had to do it in every way possible. I was a child and I didn't know what I was doing."

Military precision
Eikenburg, located in beautiful woods near Eindhoven was one of the most expensive boarding schools in the Netherlands. Dolf, now 63, attended the school from late 1956 until 1958. He describes the brother as a large, coarse and aggressive man who demanded military precision from the boys.

He used to rip the blankets from the beds to make sure that the sheets had been tucked in properly and meted out the same kind of terrifying discipline in the dining room.

Brothers of Charity
The Brothers of Charity taught around 350 students in the boarding school’s 19th-century chapel and annexes. The order, which has branches throughout the world, is devoted to helping the poor, caring for the ill and to Christian charity.

However, the brothers enforced an extremely strict regime for the boys at Eikenburg. The instructors would hand out blue cards to boys who misbehaved, which meant they could not visit their home at the weekend. Dolf says the brother exploited the situation. "He tried to rape me. He was so big and strong. His hands were all over my face".

Letters censored
Since his parents were abroad, Dolf usually visited relatives during the weekend. His father was a diplomat. He was lonely, did not feel safe and was homesick. “My parents were far away. I had nobody to turn to.” Because the brothers checked all mail it was not possible to mention the abuse in a letter.

The Brothers of Charity’s regional superior, Ton van Heugten (74) at first refused to answer questions about the accusations. “I know about it. But I am not going to discuss it.” When asked about Dolf’s version of events. “I know about it. But I don’t know if something actually happened.”

Van Heugten says that the brother in question had been confined to a psychiatric institution. “There they diagnosed him as needing psychiatric care.” There was never an investigation into whether any of the boys had been a victim of possible acts by the brother.

An investigation by Radio Netherlands Worldwide and NRC Handelsblad into child abuse at boarding schools and seminaries reveals that a great deal of hidden suffering took place near the shady lanes of the Eikenburg boarding school. Of the more than one hundred cases investigated during the past two weeks, eleven took place in one school alone – Eikenburg.

Eleven former pupils describe how they and others were repeatedly abused and beaten. The events described allegedly took place between 1956 and 1983. The former pupils accuse nine Catholic brothers and one lay brother. More than fifty brothers worked at the boarding school on average.

Physical violence
Not all the pupils came from wealthy families. Henk Overdevest and his two brothers, sons of a bulb grower from North Holland, attended Eikenburg in 1968. Henk says his mother was emotionally unstable and did not have the ability to deal with her children, whom she often beat. Due to the dangerous situation at home he was sent to Eikenburg to attend the sixth grade of elementary school.

The troubles started immediately after his arrival. The group of new pupils was walking up the steps when one of the boys said something cheeky. One of the brothers “gave him a really hard blow to his head. The boy fell down the stone steps and landed with a smack on the pavement. Nobody helped him. The boy picked himself up. He was crying really hard of course.”

Intimidation
The cruelty was allegedly of a sexual nature as well. The boys who stayed during the weekend were the ones who experienced the alleged abuse most often.

Mr Overdevest: “We were playing billiards one Saturday afternoon. A boy was about to play a shot with his cue when the same brother walked up behind him. He pressed the boy against the billiard table and began to wildly rub against him.” Nobody else did anything because they were afraid of reprisals.

Henk befriended one of the supervisors, a lay brother of around 19 years of age. The supervisor invited Henk to his room to talk. “We chatted until late in the evening, with the radio on, and he gave me a sweet glass of liqueur.” The lay brother was preparing to make a sexual advance.

“At night I was asleep in bed and I woke up. Someone was touching my penis. I pushed him away.”

The supervisor tried it again another time, but this time more aggressively. Henk pushed him away.

“A short time later I heard a boy with a loud voice shouting somewhere else in the dormitory, “Shove off. Keep your hands off me!” His parents arrived the next day and the lay brother was fired immediately.”

Dolf and Henk’s accusations are just two examples of a structural pattern. Reports by other former pupils show that it is highly likely that pupils were frequently abused during the 1960s and 70s.

A former pupil who complained to Superior Van Heugten about abuse years ago looks back in anger. “He said that my story could not possibly be true.” Recently the former pupil received a letter from Van Heugten which included the cautious phrase: “We would greatly regret it if an incident had ever occurred at our institution.”

Comfort
Some time before the school closed its doors in 1996, girls were admitted as well. Each pupil had his or her own room. Although the atmosphere was less strict, there were still instances of abuse. A woman (42) from Deurne, near Eindhoven, says a brother began to abuse her in 1980, when she was 13, until 1983. Because she is married and has two children she wants to remain anonymous. The brother said he wanted to comfort her because she was homesick. However, they ended up having sex.

When her father found out and threatened to call the police the man was transferred to another boarding school run by the Brothers of Charity, St Jozef in Roermond. Today he is one of the four members of the board of the Brothers of Charity in the Netherlands.

Confessed
The Brothers of Charity still reside in Eikenburg. Regional father superior Van Heugten at first refused to discuss the accusation. However, in a second telephone conversation he admitted that the board member “had something to do with that girl”. He says the brother “sat here crying and confessed”.

The first Roman Catholic institution to face an investigation into charges of sexual abuse was the Don Rua monastery in ‘s-Heerenberg. Now it seems that widespread abuse occurred at the Eikenberg boarding school as well. In view of the many complaints which are being sent to Hulp & Recht (Help & Justice), a Roman Catholic organisation dedicated to fighting sexual abuse, more institutions will probably follow. The Netherlands can now join the growing number of countries where past cases of widespread sexual abuse at religious institutions are coming into the limelight after having long been ignored.

Benedict XVI and Eve: affiliation with the Devil

Who committed the most grievous sins against Catholic children: Naked Mother Eve or Holy Father Benedict XVI all covered in white Emperor’s Clothes? It is said that the Devil can appear in a human form dressed in white regalia. Eve ate (bit) only one apple but Benedict XVI as Cardinal Ratzinger, head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith condoned and covered-up the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army who committed the "Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Protportions" for over 26 years

Benedict XVI was quoted in many Catholic headlines for his few words on the clergy sexual abuse scandal: "It was to be expected that this new radiance of the priesthood would not be pleasing to the 'enemy' ... And so it happened that, in this very year of joy for the Sacrament of the priesthood, the sins of priests came to light - particularly the abuse of the little ones. ...” Benedict XVI preached before 15,000 priests at St. Peter’s Square on June 11, 2010 to close the Year for Priests. The Vatican Bank’s highest paid reporter John L. Allen Jr as Pied Piper for Benedict XVI immediately identifies the ‘enemy’ in his headline, “Pope sees the Devil behind timing of sex abuse crisis”, see http://pope-ratz.blogspot.com/2010/06/john-l-allen-jr-deceptions-call-vatican.html. In the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army, we pointed out how Benedict insulted the victims with the condescending and demeaning words of “little ones” for now-adult victims who were battered with decades of ‘Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Proportions’ see http://jp2army.blogspot.com/2010/06/benedict-xvi-asks-for-quickie.html. Calling victims “little ones” shows how out-of-touch and grossly insensitive Benedict really is. But what else can he feel dressed in his Zeffirelli Emperor’s Clothes regalia surrounded by majestic frescoes at the Vatican Palace and heiled by throngs of adoring priests and Catholic fans? In spite of meeting a few victims and shedding a few crocodile tears, he remains arrogant and refuses to see that all authentic victims always speak of how their youthful innocence was stolen from them. Really, there is nothing “little” or sweet- innocent about these long-suffering victims and calling them “little ones” is an unremorseful affront to them.

Benedict XVI asks for ‘quickie forgiveness’ from “little ones” who were battered for years by ‘Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Proportions’

St. Ignatius Loyola called the Jesuits the Society of Jesus. St? Josemaria Escriva called the Opus Dei priests “the Priestly Society of the Holy Cross”. We call the worst crime against Catholic children “the Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Proportions”. We call the innumerable pedophile priests “the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army” because John Paul II had the longest papacy for almost 27 years and he covered them up and he did not protect one single child from one predator priest. That is why John Paul II must never be called a “Saint” by children in this generation and all generations to come. He was heartless and callous towards children in his lifetime and in his death.

Benedict XVI is acting infallible again. At the end of the Year of the Priest celebrations in Rome, he dressed and acted like a Roman Pontiff, sitting at the trillion dollars Chair of St. Peter, and with a few words, he speaks as if he can eradicate decades of “Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Proportions” on “little ones”.

Benedict XVI’s words of “little ones” is an unashamed insult to hundreds of thousands of victims of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army who continue to suffer lifetime of “living Hell”, many committed suicide and are drug addicts, many are divorced and continue to have haunting nightmares of their years of “Priestly Sodomy”. These victims are not "little ones" but "big victims" who are not "ones" but have real personal faces, personal names and real human beings (who are not mere statistic) who were sexually assaulted for decades by “Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Proportions”.

Benedict XVI’s use of “little ones” on victims is condescending and sweet nothing. “Little ones” are sweet words often used for innocent children as words of endearment. But there is nothing sweet or innocent and endearing these victims have been battered and scourged for years by only the most abominable sexual priestly beasts can imagine and do - like Fr. Marcial Maciel who sodomized even his own son.

It is time for the fall of the papacy. It is time for the fall of the Vatican. It is time for the fall of Rome. It is time for the end of “quickie forgiveness of sins” and the fiction of the Eucharist. It is time that the Pope is no longer a "Head of State" and not be entitled with political immunity. It is time for the end of the "reverence for priests". It is time for the end of the Eucharist which is pure fiction of the powers of the Pope and priests to reincarnate Christ flesh in 9-seconds formula of "transubstatiation". It is time that John Paul II be called "the Pope of Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Porportions".

Pope asks God for forgiveness but offers no apology on priest abuse

Benedict XVI's remarks at a gathering of priests at the Vatican are praised by clerics, but victims groups are less impressed.
Pope Benedict XVI

June 12, 2010

Reporting from Vatican City —

When Pope Benedict XVI announced the "Year of the Priest" that concluded Friday, he probably didn't have in mind the sort of year he got.

He acknowledged as much in a closing Mass, telling more than 10,000 assembled priests in St. Peter's Square that "in the very year of joy for the sacrament of the priesthood, the sins of priests came to light."

Benedict had been widely expected to use the occasion to issue his most sweeping and detailed mea culpa to date for the clergy sexual abuse scandal, and perhaps to announce new measures to cope with it. The scandal has rocked the Roman Catholic Church in Europe this year, nearly a decade after it shook the American church to its roots.

But the pope did neither, blaming the problem on "the enemy," Satan, even as he begged forgiveness from God and from the victims of priest abuse, as he has several times recently. The latest comments failed to satisfy at least some in his audience, who called for greater accountability and more concrete measures to combat abuse.

"How many times can you apologize before you take action?" asked Joelle Casteix of Newport Beach, a leader of the U.S. victims group Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests, or SNAP, who attended the outdoor Mass.

Benedict celebrated the Mass in sweltering heat after presiding the night before over a vigil in which he strongly defended the church's requirement that priests take a vow of celibacy.

Although he has a reputation as an occasionally austere figure, the pope won praise from priests for speaking plainly and showing a keen understanding of their difficulties, as well as for inspiring them with reminders of the importance of their work and depth of their faith.

"It's a challenge being a priest today, no?" Andres Ulloa, 24, an Ecuadorean seminarian from Guayaquil, said after the Mass. "But he talked about the joys of being a priest.... He knows how to get to the center and the essence of problems."

The pope's homily was delivered to a sea of men who wore white robes over black streetwear, looking decidedly uncomfortable on a hot, muggy day. Together with the previous night's crowd, the gathering of Catholic priests was believed to be the largest in history. The men fanned themselves and covered their heads with all manner of sun protection: fishing hats, straw hats, baseball caps (some worn backwards), handkerchiefs — even paperback hymnals propped up like tents.

At one point, sounding much like the academic he once was, Benedict spoke of the development of monotheism, and seemed to criticize non-Christian faiths as well as the Enlightenment, the historical movement that brought revolutionary developments in science and philosophy.

He said that early in its development, monotheism embraced a "distant" God unlike the one worshipped by Christians. "This one God was good, yet aloof," the pope said. "Consequently, one didn't need to worry about him."

Benedict spoke about "the audacity of God" in trusting men to be priests.

"That God thinks that we are capable of this, that in this way he calls men to his service and thus from within binds himself to them — this is what we wanted to reflect upon and appreciate anew over the course of the past year," he said.

Although he didn't announce any new measures to combat sexual abuse, he said the church must use "the shepherd's rod, the rod with which he protects the faith against those who falsify it."

His abuse remarks drew applause at one point, and praise by priests afterward. However, the comments of some clerics served as reminders that the scandal is not entirely global. Benjamin Ogechi Agbara, a diocesan priest from Port Harcourt, Nigeria, said he was satisfied with the pope's comments but that sexual abuse was secondary in his country.

"The problem of the church," he said, "is poverty in Africa."

The pope's comments did not appease organized groups of abuse victims who have called for more substantive action.

Anne Barrett Doyle, co-director of BishopAccountability.org, issued a statement calling Benedict's remarks "a great disappointment and a squandered opportunity."

Casteix and several other representatives of SNAP were also critical.

Casteix, SNAP's Southwest director, said she would not be satisfied until the church instituted a zero-tolerance policy under which abusive priests and those who covered up their crimes were turned over to civil authorities and expelled from the church. (Benedict has called for all sexual abusers to be turned over to police.)

Priests might have been inspired by the gathering at the Vatican, Casteix said, but the pope didn't give them any tools with which to deal with the problem.

"They leave here and what do they really have?" she asked. "Nothing. Inspiration doesn't really save a child."

Educating children and atoning for sins

Dan Rodricks
http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/opinion/oped/bs-ed-rodricks-catholic-church-20100613,0,2915790.column

June 13, 2010


Thursday, in Rome, the pope asked for forgiveness for child sexual abuse by clergy, while in Baltimore, the archbishop asked for money for parochial schools. And thus we had, on one day, the confluence of two streams of Catholic consciousness that have been flowing briskly this spring: a church whose leadership for decades tolerated immeasurable abuse of children claiming the noble desire to continue educating them.

In March, Archbishop Edwin F. O'Brien announced the closings of 13 more schools in Baltimore and Baltimore County, setting off protests and an impassioned but fruitless effort by parents, students and alumni of the Cardinal Gibbons School to save their beloved high school.

The announcement drew attention to steady enrollment declines and to the archdiocese's severe financial losses. Further, the shuttering of these 13 schools raised questions about the church's continued role in educating poor children and the children of the working poor, many of them non-Catholics. "We're educating them not because they're not Catholic, but because we are," Archbishop O'Brien told The Catholic Review. "It speaks to our social justice teaching, our commitment to serving the poor and our belief that every child is deserving of a quality education."

That's the stuff of Catholic tradition that the faithful, and even the not-so-faithful-anymore, could find inspiring and convincing — if not for all the doubts that have been raised, and continue to be raised, about church leaders who claim to stand up for children.

Like a flood that exposes buried artifacts, the spring brought a wave of new reports about the abuse of scores of children by Catholic clergy, in the United States and in Europe. One report, in The New York Times, told of a priest who abused as many as 200 deaf boys at a school in Wisconsin and raised serious questions about Pope Benedict XVI's role in the matter while he ran the Vatican office responsible for investigating charges against priests. Other news reports left doubts about Pope Benedict's handling of abuse cases while an archbishop in Germany.

Government investigations in Ireland have found widespread sexual abuse by priests in Catholic schools as well as cover-ups by church officials and Dublin police.

The Catholic Church in the United States has paid out an estimated $2 billion in abuse settlements, and claims of damages across the country have caused eight dioceses to file for bankruptcy and others to close parishes and schools. There have been thousands of allegations of abuse by hundreds of priests who served in parishes and in schools between 1950 and 2000.

The pope, who met with American victims two years ago, issued a series of contrite statements this spring, even as the scandal spread, with hundreds of new allegations surfacing in Austria, Germany and the Netherlands. On Thursday, Pope Benedict issued another apology for the decades-long nightmare, this time from the Vatican.

What has not been sufficiently addressed in all of this is the lingering effect of the abuse scandal on school enrollment, on the finances of the church and on the power of church leaders to reverse those trends. The scandal's full cost to the church — in cash and in credibility — remains a thing of speculation. In Baltimore or anywhere, when an archdiocese closes schools, unable to continue to subsidize the education of poor children, many Catholics wonder if it's because of all the damages still owed to victims. Also unclear is the extent to which the scandal has affected parents in their decision to enroll their children in Catholic schools.

Now the Archdiocese of Baltimore, having closed 28 of its schools since 2000, steps forward with a plan to reverse the declines and improve the remaining schools. Parishes will be asked to foot the bill, of course. It took a panel on Catholic education 16 months to come up with that novel idea — that the great Catholic diaspora along the Beltway and beyond should pay for the church's mission to improve the lives of poor children, many of them in Baltimore, whether they receive Communion or not.

Certainly that's a worthy mission. But Catholics, both the devout and the struggling, will decide whether their church can be trusted to continue it.

The Opus Dei fabricates “The Age of Benedict XVI” in Rome... Belgian Police raid Archbishop’s Palace and Catholic Headquarters in Brussels

The Belgian Police raid in several Catholic headquarters especially in the Episcopal Palace at Mechelen of the Archbishop of Brussels, Andre-Joseph Leonard, concerning church cover-ups of alleged children sexual abuse couldn’t have come at a better timing than June 24, 2010, on the eve of the feast day of Opus Dei founder, St. Josemaria Escriva, as Opus Dei celebrates (annually) around the world – in grandiose major basilicas with Cardinals, Bishops and Monsignors presiding the (fairytale) Mass with his relic – and a series of television shows about his life, especially in EWTN (the $50 Million diamond studded chapel of Mother Angelica, see http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2008/02/john-paul-ii-diamond-bride-mother.html Why does Holy Mother Angelica need $50 million worth of diamonds in her chapel when millions of women in Africa have barely food to eat with their children?) Apparently, as the Belgian Conference of Bishops were about to start their weekly meeting with a Vatican envoy around 10:30h, Belgian Police entered the Archbishop’s Palace (uninvited) with a search warrant because of continuing church cover-up of children sexual abuse by pedophile priests in the territory of the Malines-Bruxelles Archdiocese.

No other explanations were given by the police; they did not allow any “Conversations with God” (the daily meditation series by the Opus Dei) discussions with the Bishops to intervene. Belgian Police were not there to search for God amidst the Princes of the Catholic Church but for crime evidence committed by the Catholic Cardinal and Bishops in aiding and abetting pedophile priests. Police barricaded the offices and barred the Bishops from leaving the premises or contacting outsiders including their lawyers while they searched and confiscated boxes of files and documents. Get this, no calls were allowed to their lawyers or to their “Holy Father” infallible Pope Benedict XVI (and the Prefect of the CDF or powerful whatever’s) at the Vatican. The Police confiscated all of the Bishops’ cell phones and computers, and even dug a hole in the tombs of Belgian Cardinals and put in a telescope to see if documents were buried in them. These Belgian Police know their ‘Catholic crimes history’ to have dared touch and peek into the sacred tombs of Cardinal Suenen and other Archbishops. (Well, corpses are exhumed for canonization purposes so why not for criminal purposes?) The raid lasted into the night until 19h30. At last, the Belgians are finally taking real “secular justice” in their own hands for the most heinous crimes of the “Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Proportions” committed by the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army (see Benedict XVI asks for ‘quickie forgiveness’ from “little ones” who were battered for years by ‘Priestly Sodomy of Biblical Proportions’ http://jp2army.blogspot.com/2010/06/benedict-xvi-asks-for-quickie.html) Those Belgian Bishops have nowhere to hide, not in their palatial Bishops Residences, not in their future sacred tombs. Just like RATzinger is lost in the Vatican sex scandal maze. With nowhere else to run...see http://pope-ratz.blogspot.com/2010/03/benedict-xvi-is-now-ratzinger-lost-in.html

The suspense of this first-of-a-kind in the history of the 2,000 years old Catholicism is far better than the Da Vinci Code and certainly signals the beginning of the end of the religious empire of the Almighty Vatican trillion dollars Bank who couldn’t buy the souls of the Belgian Police corps. The 7-hours Belgian Police raid is quite a far cry from the 2-minutes “quickie forgiveness of sins” in the Sacrament of Confession and the few papal mea culpa of Benedict XVI who blamed the Devil for priest pedophilia a few days ago at St. Peter’s Square (see our article Eve and Benedict XVI blame the Devil. Analysis of Pope’s homily in Year for Priests -sorcerers of Christ’s flesh and blood http://pope-ratz.blogspot.com/2010/06/eve-and-benedict-xvi-blame-devil.html) Obviously, the Belgian Police were not fooled by the Zeffirelli-directed spectacle of 15,000 white robed priests celebrating the Year for Priests in Rome and their sorcery of Christ's flesh and Blood. This is the way it should be: Secular justice must not be swayed by priestly powers, theology or religious mantras and Vatican rhetoric. The Pope and the Vatican theocratic powers must now end in this dawn of the 21st century. Those thousands of speeches, encyclicals and books by John Paul II the Great must have no bearing in our justice system because as we have exposed it, Theology and John Paul II are heartless and together they made the immoral Fr. Marcial Maciel and all pedophile priests thrive, see http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2010/05/theology-and-john-paul-ii-are-heartless.html


There were a slew of headlines that “Benedict XVI apologized to God and victims” and the Vatican thought that was the end of it, and we would not hear of priest pedophilia again. The Vatican has orchestrated that the priest pedophilia media frenzy would go into sleep mode like the Inquisition’s burning of women and witches and the Crusades. And Cardinals like our own criminal Cardinal Bernard Law of Boston would be elevated to a glorious post as Archpriest of the St. Mary Major in Rome just like a lucrative post is awaiting the most criminal of all Bishops, “billionaire” Cardinal Roger Mahony of Los Angeles, who covered-up the most numbers of pedophile priests in the history of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army in America.


Opus Dei, the mastermind of the cover-up of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army

In our article of “Reasons why priest pedophilia is eternal” in the John Paul II Millstone website, we listed 7 reasons and Opus Dei is the seventh reason. Priest pedophilia is eternal because John Paul II the Great “Saint” and all his theology writings are eternal, “The Conscience” of ‘the Age of Benedict XVI is eternal, and Opus Dei is the mastermind of these two Goliath Popes in the 20th and 21st century. Opus Dei treated the hundreds of thousands of children abused by the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army as mere statistics, see our article “Reasons why Opus Dei covered-up the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army for decades: Words of Opus Dei Joaquin Navarro-Valls http://jp2army.blogspot.com/2010/04/reasons-why-opus-dei-covered-up-john.html

The first thing to know about Opus Dei is the personal metamorphose of the name of its founder, St. Josemaria Escriva (see as we compare it to Michael Jackson’s personal metamorphose of his face, see The morph of Michael Jackson's face and St. Josemaria Escriva de Opus Dei's name http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2009/07/morph-of-michael-jacksons-face-and-st.html) How many persons in the 2,000 history of Catholicism (or among mankind) have obsessively changed their personal name and went to legal lengths to acquire honorary titles? No one; only St. Josemaria Escriva, the founder of Opus Dei. And this man is supposedly to be “The Way” or the model of holiness for Catholics and mankind? A religious group is known by its founder just like the Legionaries of Christ is known by the immoral serial pedophile “Holy Father” Marcial Maciel. Or the Jesuits by St. Ignatius Loyola and St. Francis Xavier. St. Josemaria Escriva may have never committed pedophilia but his group Opus Dei certainly condoned and systemically covered-up Fr. Marcial Maciel and the thousands of pedophile priests around the world simply because they are “a small statistics” as Dr. Joaquin Navarro-Valls revealed recently, see our article Reasons why Opus Dei covered-up the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army for decades: Words of Opus Dei Joaquin Navarro-Valls http://jp2army.blogspot.com/2010/04/opus-dei-female-symbol-for-john-paul-ii.html

Opus Dei is the main mastermind of the legacy of “John Paul II the Great” and is now concocting “The Age of Benedict XVI” at their Pontifical University in Rome (see news article below). Opus Dei, through Benedict XVI, is in a hurry to have John Paul II canonized (just like the speedy canonization of their founder in 2002) Josemaria Escriva. Opus Dei members call with utmost reverence 3 persons as their “Holy Fathers”: (Saint) Josemaria Escriva, (Saint) John Paul II, (The Conscience) of the Age of Benedict XVI. All three have compendium writings of Catholic doctrines that must be absolutely quoted by all Opus Dei members and by all Catholics – if they want to be “all things Catholic” – and in good standing with the Vatican. see http://pope-ratz.blogspot.com/2010/06/john-l-allen-jr-deceptions-call-vatican.html (The Legionaries of Christ also call three men as their “Holy Fathers”: John Paul II, Benedict XVI and their founder Marcial Maciel)

Opus Dei want to restore the theocratic powers of the Pope in all countries as they use to wield in the Middle Ages, but through the secrecy of their powerful political members. The capability of secrecy and political powers of Opus Dei is exemplified by their (in)famous member, Robert Hanssen, the worst spy in US history who sold top secrets to the Russians. The movie Breach tells his story http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-book-on-john-paul-ii-why-hes-saint.html.

Opus Dei was the main controller, producer and director of the 26+ years papacy of John Paul II and of the now papacy of Benedict XVI. They are the new Vatican Trinity. If there is a Catholic Trinity of God the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit, now there is John Paul II, Benedict XVI and Opus Dei. Actually Opus Dei is God the Father in this new Vatican Trinity because as their founder Josemaria Escriva kept saying during his lifetime: “There are many popes who come and go but there is only one founder of Opus Dei.”

Opus Dei have one obsession that is the WORLD DOMINATION of their founder St. Josemaria Escriva. The singular color of the map in their official website symbolizes this greed for power of Opus Dei. Today they are the sole controller of the papacy, all Cardinals and bishops and their new appointments who will unquestionably follow their Opus Dei WORLD DOMINATION Agenda and the sustenance of the trillion dollars Vatican Bank.

Only Opus Dei celibate members or eunuchs called numeraries live and surround the Pope at the Vatican. There are no Jesuits or other male orders; even the Swiss Guard Army are all Opus Dei members. These numeraries are the elite men from which they chose to select Opus Dei priests. They are all rich and professionals from different countries in the world - just like the former physician, Dr. Joaquin Navarro-Valls who was the secretary of John Paul II during 26 years. “No one goes to the Holy Father except through me” was his mantra. He recently, officially, explained the small significance of victims of priest pedophiles. As a medical doctor he gave a female symbol for the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army http://jp2army.blogspot.com/2010/04/opus-dei-female-symbol-for-john-paul-ii.html

The Opus Dei are offended if we do not address their founder as a “saint”, and they always call him their “Holy Father” as they do with the Pope. (Two “Holy Fathers” make a GAY couple or a “Mystical Marriage” of a religious sort.)

Josemaria Escriva saved the Vatican Bank during the Ambrosiano crisis in the 1970’s and in return Pope Paul the VI (in spite of his suspicions and aversion for Opus Dei) had no choice but to give Opus Dei total control of the Vatican Bank.

Josemaria Escriva was another cash-cow of the Vatican trillion dollars Bank just like pedophile priest Fr. Marcial Maciel who brought in 30 billions dollars. And how do they get so much money from the rich? It’s simple, by using the promise of Heaven and the threat of Hell and exclusive photo-ops with the Pope on earth. These two Spanish founders were the favourites of John Paul II because they inculcated the orthodoxy of Catholic doctrines, the theocracy of the papacy, and the use of Latin as the official language for the Daily Mass among their elite members.

While we now know of the clandestine pedophilia of Maciel, we also now know of the clandestine criminal partnerships Escriva made with dictators such as Pinochet of Chile and Franco of Spain. Whether they were mass murderers or plunderers like Marcos, Josemaria Escriva made intimate friends with them in order to expand the political powers of the religious WORLD DOMINATION of Opus Dei. Opus Dei also establish many secret members in the justice systems in major cities and countries around the world, such as Scalia and Roberts in the Supreme Court of the USA.

Every year, on the feast of Josemaria Escriva, the Opus Dei celebrate his feast with only top Cardinals and Bishops performing the Mass at major basilicas. No other saint is celebrated in this ceremonial and spectacular manner.

The day after his canonization in Rome, on October 7, 2002, the Opus Dei Bishop of Rome celebrated Mass at St. Peter’s Square for more than 200,000 members of Opus Dei and their financial supporters. No other Bishops and Cardinals, except the Pope, is allowed to celebrate at St. Peter’s Square. And the Opus Dei use the pictures of this exclusive gathering in their annual invitation for the feast day of Escriva.

The Opus Dei is most responsible for the condoning and cover-up of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army, the worst crime against Catholic children in history. The Opus Dei is just like John Paul II who was heartless. They are only obsessed with theology and Vatican doctrines to control their members, but Theology and John Paul II are heartless and together they made the immoral Fr. Marcial Maciel thrive http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2010/05/theology-and-john-paul-ii-are-heartless.html

http://jp2army.blogspot.com/2010/04/reasons-why-opus-dei-covered-up-john.html

Opus Dei have another obsession, that is the obliteration of the Jesuits and slowly but surely they are succeeding. They have removed all Jesuits from the Vatican Radio, and put the director of Vatican Radio (in name only) Fr. Lombardi as the (puppet) public spokesperson of the Pope so that he has no time and no say whatsoever of the Vatican Radio. Opus Dei are master deceivers and they will use anyone to achieve their WORLD DOMINATION goal. They have no mercy towards their critics and silence all theologians who criticised John Paul II and the papacy, especially the Jesuit Jon Sobrino. Their former members and critics also get mysteriously fired from their jobs.

So the theocratic power of the pope will now be wielded around the globe through the powers of Opus Dei members and the trillion dollar money of the Vatican Bank which they control. They will stop at nothing, including buying the souls of politicians, the latest is Obama, to achieve their WORLD DOMINATION agenda. But Our Lady of Fatima cannot stand the sight of the hypocrites Opus Dei and soon she will vanish the Vatican and its mammoth Bank into the ground.

Theology and John Paul II are heartless and together they made the immoral Fr. Marcial Maciel thrive

John Paul II the Great wrote the most number of theology books and articles but he was heartless and had neither compassion nor compunction for tens of thousands of boys sodomized within Catholic churches worldwide by his John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army. What good were his papal travels when he did not even bother to protect children by defrocking at least one pedophile priest? John Paul II elevated Cardinal Bernard Law as Archpriest in Rome after Law resigned in disgrace after he admitted to his cover-up of more than 100 pedophile priests in Boston. This was one of his last papal acts before he died to prove to the laity and to us Bostonians that he is Pope and he is almighty and we are at the bottom of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church, that we are the worthless non-ordained laity who cannot transform the Host into the Body of Christ, and therefore we cannot dethrone any Prince of the Church. John Paul II wrote the encyclical the Eucharist is the summit and source of the Catholic Church and that priests are the most important members of the Catholic Church. So whether they are pedophile priests or not, what mattered was that priests could go on re-incarnating the flesh of Christ in 9 seconds (versus Mary’s 9-months pregnancy, see http://stella0maris.blogspot.com/) History does not lie and history shows that John Paul II was obsessed with his narcissistic legacy through his theology books; he wrote the Theology of the Body, but all his doctrines and papal homilies proved that Theology and John Paul II are heartless and together they made pedophile priests thrive, especially the immoral Fr. Marcial Maciel. See Spiritual healing, the Eucharist and the Rosary bring NEITHER JUSTICE NOR SAFETY FOR CHILDREN, the preys of the John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army http://jp2m.blogspot.com/2010/05/spiritual-healing-eucharist-and-rosary.html

John Paul II (and Opus Dei) knew personally Fr. Marcial Maciel as much as he knew Cardinal Ratzinger now Benedict XVI. Maciel was ordained at the Basilica of Guadalupe in Mexico in 1944 that’s why the church of the Legion of Christ in Rome is named after Our lady of Guadalupe. Maciel arranged and accompanied John Paul II’s historic papal trips to the Guadalupe Basilica in Mexico in 1979, 1990, and 1993. There, the poor Mexicans were used as backdrops as in the papal visit in El Salvador as the Jesuit Jon Sobrino described it which caused him to be silenced by Benedict XVI and the Opus Dei - see our related articles below

John Paul II met Maciel many times at the Vatican and praised him almost as much as he did Opus Dei’s St. Josemaria Escriva. John Paul II loved these two Spanish founders who were the wealthiest contributors to the Vatican Bank and founders of the fastest growing orders -- in as much as he abhorred the Jesuits thus kicking them all out of the Vatican and the Vatican Radio, and surrounding himself only with the Opus Dei with his powerful Opus Dei papal spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Valls, who recently explained the reasons why John Paul II was mute on priest pedophilia - see our related articles below.

These two papal favourites have a nice partnership, the Opus Dei controls the papacy, theology and doctrines, and all selections of Cardinals and Bishops, while the Legion of Christ reports in the Internet about the daily life at the Vatican in Zenit.org called also The World Seen from Rome (John L. Allen Jr was The Word from Rome, now it is All Things Catholic -see oure related articles below.) The Opus Dei also controls the Vatican Radio and the Vatican TV and the staffs are provided by the Opus Dei Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome. Together with John Paul II, the Opus Dei knew well Fr. Marcial Maciel and his past crimes; it was a complicit of the worst kind at the Vatican and it is children who paid for it this time. During the Inquisition, it was women who were tortured and burned, today it is children Catholic children at that, innocent altar boys which prove that the Eucharist, the Rosary and Theology are heartless just like John Paul II was heartless and was absorbed only with his narcissistic self-glory as John Paul II the Great.

Self-examination: Catholic communicators look to address scandal

ROME
The Catholic Spirit
By John Thavis - Catholic News Service
Friday, 30 April 2010

With workshops such as "Benedict XVI, sexual abuse and The New York Times" on the program, it wasn't surprising that a conference of Catholic communicators in Rome provoked more interest than usual this year.

But those expecting a round of media-bashing were disappointed. Most of the April 26-28 discussion focused on how the church itself should be more transparent, more proactive in communicating and more journalist-friendly if it wants to get its message out on clerical sex abuse.

Sponsored by the Opus Dei-run Pontifical University of the Holy Cross, the conference over the years has become a regular networking event for hundreds of church communications personnel, including diocesan spokespersons.

Catholic headquarters in Belgium focus of police raids in sex abuse cases

Belgian police sources say church has been withholding information from its independent inquiry into sex abuse scandal

The Roman Catholic church was once again at the centre of a child abuse scandal today when police raided the headquarters of the church hierarchy in Belgium. They carried away computers and hundreds of files, amid rumours that church leaders were continuing to cover up abuse cases despite a public plea for forgiveness last month.

Belgian officers today sealed off and searched the headquarters of the church at Mechelen, north of Brussels, where the Belgian bishops' conference was in session, with the papal nuncio taking part. They also searched the home of Cardinal Godfried Danneels, until last year Belgium's most senior prelate, who enjoys a reputation for being a liberal.

In nearby Leuven, east of Brussels, police also searched the premises of the independent church commission investigating hundreds of cases of alleged molestation by clergymen. They took all 475 files belonging to the commission, prompting bewilderment and panic among investigators and victims of sexual abuse.

"The police have a number of accusations connected with the sexual abuse of children within the church," said Jean-Marc Meilleur, a Brussels police spokesman. "The searches are the result of the investigation we started recently. We are collecting evidence material."

The raids centred on the palace of Archbishop Andre-Joseph Leonard, head of the Catholic church in Belgium, on the ancient town's St Rombout's cathedral, and on the residence of the former head of the church in Belgium, Cardinal Danneels.

The long-running but moribund commission in Leuven was resurrected this year to investigate the torrent of allegations that have surfaced, especially since April when one of the most senior clergymen in Belgium, Archbishop of Bruges, Roger Vangheluwe, resigned after admitting he had been abusing a boy for years.

Police declined to say whether any of the individuals at the centre of today's raids were direct suspects or whether the searches concerned evidence affecting other cases.

The commission of inquiry is well-respected and is led by Peter Adriaenssens, one of Belgium's top child abuse experts, whose office has received hundreds of complaints this year and who has threatened to resign should his work be impeded by the church hierarchy. He emerged as a national figure following the notorious Marc Dutroux paedophilia and murder case in 1996 and runs one of the country's most respected child abuse centres.

He voiced outrage and shock at the police actions, saying he had been given no warning, and would now struggle to deliver a report on clerical sexual abuse he was preparing for October. Adriaenssens was in Amsterdam in the Netherlands on Wednesday when his offices were raided. He said that all files in his investigation, concerning 475 cases, had been taken away by the police.

"All day we've been getting mails and calls from victims in panic," he said. "They agreed that we do a report, but they did not want others to see the material … No one asked us a single question. We have no idea why this happened now."

Adriaenssens suggested that a wave of "paranoia" had developed around the flood of allegations coming to light in recent months in Belgium. "There were rumours that the commission was having secret talks with the bishops. Perhaps the investigating magistrate let himself be led by this paranoia."

He added that the raids had thrown into question whether his commission would be able to continue its work. It was set up years ago but had vegetated until this year when the sexual abuse allegations and revelations spread rapidly across the world. The commission's previous head had complained of a lack of co-operation from the church authorities.

Police sources told the Flemish newspaper De Standaard that the raids were carried out because of suspicions that church leaders were failing to hand over all the necessary materials to the commission of inquiry. That was not confirmed by Adriaenssens.

Last month the Belgian bishops' conference issued a pastoral letter pleading for forgiveness both for the sexual abuse by many clergy and for the cover-ups and "silence" that then followed.

"Through the silence priority was given to the reputation of the church institution or the clergyman over the dignity of the child as victim," said the letter.
