1. John Horvat, vice president of the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property, told LifeSiteNews that, “it is apocalyptically scandalous and a great shame that the highest authority on earth, the Vicar of Christ, publicly endorses homosexual civil unions. It is indicative of our sinful times and why Our Lady warned us of a great chastisement in Fatima.”

8. What the McElroy Appointment Says About the Church’s Commitment to Sex Abuse Victims (crisismagazine.com) – 6/13/22 – It wasn’t long into my study of the sex abuse crisis in the Church that I realized that many or even most bishops customarily respond to a report about abuse (1) by feeling sorry for themselves that they have another mess on their hands; (2) by feeling sorry for the priest whose priesthood may be ruined; and (3) by trying to figure out how to get the victim to remain silent and go away. There is rarely, if ever, any true concern shown for the victim; sometimes counseling is offered but more often as a way to appease than to help the victim.
