The Irish Times wants the three pro-gay Cardinals Kevin Farrell, Donald Wuerl and Oscar Rodriguez Maradiaga not to participate in the Dublin World Meeting of Families (August 22-26).
The newspaper refers to a group called "Ending Clergy Abuse" which said in a statement that these cardinals should be "investigated, not honoured" and claims that they have covered up for clergy who committed homosexual abuse.
Cardinal Farrell owes his clerical career to now-disgraced Cardinal Theodore McCarrick and, before, made a career in the Legion of Christ which was founded by the homosexual abuser Marcial Maciel. In both cases, Farrell told the media that he "never knew anything".
Cardinal Wuerl succeeded Washington Cardinal McCarrick around the time New Jersey dioceses were settling with McCarrick’s victims.
Cardinal Rodriguez protected for years his auxiliary bishop Juan Jose Pineda who was involved in homosexual scandals.
The three pro-gay cardinals will much likely suffer no harm because they …More

I find it hard to believe that Pope Francis would still have Cardinals O'Malley, Maradiaga, & Errazuriz in his council with them all embroiled in 'cover-up' scandals.

This bishop still doesn't get it.

In order to believe Wuerl's claim that he knew nothing about McCarrick's misbehavior, one would have to swallow the following whoppers:
* that Wuerl never read psychotherapist Richard Sipe's accounts of McCarrick's gay predation, which go back at least a decade and were widely circulated on the internet (Sipe is well known to the American hierarchy)

* that the papal nuncio to the United States, who had been apprised of settlements New Jersey archdioceses reached with McCarrick's victims, never breathed a word of these settlements to Wuerl

* that the Church's insurance company, which presumably oversaw the decision to settle, never consulted with Wuerl about McCarrick's record in Washington, D.C.

*that not a single D.C. priest or archdiocesan official who knew about McCarrick's reputation or the settlements ever breathed a word of these matters to Wuerl.

George Neumayr: "That Wuerl didn't know about the predations of his predecessor is about as likely as Harvey Weinstein's brother and business partner not knowing about the mogul's widely rumored misdeeds."

Good for Irish Times.. We must all stand up. How do we unless we have the actually proof?... sometimes they just don't come out and say it. Or do we just pray in this sadness of times?
