Martinez vs. CWR Olson: Fred Martinez January 26, 2018 at 9:04 pm Are the CWR, Fr. Martin & Fr. Reese and the dissenter National”Catholic” Reporter joining together to smoke-screened that Pope Francis has “dismantled” the reforms of Pope Benedict XVI? I wrote for NewsMax during the US sex-abuse scandal, before the Benedict reforms, a piece called: “What is VOTF’s Real Agenda?” The agenda was a power grab attempt by dissenters and gay activists. Martin & Reese appear to be following the same script as VOFT did back then. Google the article title. It is still number one that google page on NewsMax. The point is why is the CWR pretending with them that the Benedict reforms never happened and were not dismantled by Francis. I pray it is only ignorance of the following facts: The Benedict reforms were not just judging covered-up bishops of sex-abuse priests, but removing them at a rate of “two or three bishops per month” and had “defrocked or suspended more than 800” predator priests. CWR editors please read Hilary White’s fine January 25 article “Special Report: Pope Francis Accused of Inaction in Notorious Sex Abuse Cases” in the Remnant. Reply Carl E. Olson January 27, 2018 at 12:21 am Where does this piece even mention Benedict XVI? The story here is simple: a wide range of Catholics, across the spectrum (so to speak), have serious questions about how Pope Francis is handling this situation. There is no pretending, on the part of CWR, that Benedict’s reforms never happened. If anything (again, Benedict is not mentioned here, so…), there is frustration and concern that Francis is exhibiting questionable judgment and poor leadership. Not everything is a conspiracy. No, really, it’s not. Reply Padre January 27, 2018 at 8:39 am much more than questionable judgment and poor leadership, sinfulness, whether culpable is another matter,….these are evils Reply Fred Martinez January 27, 2018 at 1:38 am It is not a conspiracy that the CWR article promoted Reese’s claim that there is “no process for judging bishops” when there is a process that has been dismantled by Pope Francis. The Reese quote and the CWR headline “call for bishop accountability” implies or presupposes that there is no process instituted by Pope Bendict. I persumed that you might be ignorant of this information. Orthodox Catholic editors have a duty not be used as pawns by gay activists and dissenters in furthering their agenda.
