"Disgraced former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick has died at age 94"

nbcnews.com/news/us-news/disgr

"Theodore McCarrick, a once-powerful Catholic cardinal who was defrocked by Pope Francis in 2019 after a Vatican investigation determined he sexually molested adults and children, died Friday, according to Archbishop of Washington Robert McElroy. McCarrick was 94."

The monotheistic religions made it normal to squash people: "I think there is something really special about the Bible [...] which is precisely this idea that the revelation of truth comes through the suffering of the weak." (Matthieu Poupart)

Then the Renaissance made it easier to blame the victim: With modernity, "it is the person who takes no initiative who is seen as responsible for the emergence of sexual promiscuity." (Matthieu Poupart)

I learned one thing while attending #Catholic #Church and nothing else. It was a line in a song. "That which you do to the least of my brothers, that you do unto me."

The #US used to be moving forward toward treating people better. Now under #Trump #Musk Administration, we have lost almost everything.

Maybe our churches are common ground for politics. A devout #Catholic is thrown out for preaching messages from the #Bible:

After he started his prayer, a priest approached him at the pulpit: “Come with me. Turn the sound off! Brother, you need to leave.”

And then, after the sounds of a very quick takedown came this: “Stay still. We’re not going to hurt you.”

“You already used violence against me in a church.”

“You’re trespassing.”

Catholic Charities laying off staff and halting services for refugees across the U.S. due to aid freeze and U.S. not paying on contracts signed.
I hope Pope Francis recovers quickly to speak up more on this. I also look forward to the new Archbishop for Washington, Cardinal McElroy, speaking up, as he did yesterday in his very first remarks in new role. bit.ly/423NdSo

Here's a new #introduction for my #newinstance

I'm Pat, a 60-something guy in the suburbs of #Chicago, #USA. I'm #Catholic, love #boxing (and box for exercise myself). I'm a #foodie and love to #cook, #bake, and make #bbq for my friends and family. I'm also a bit of a nerd, and you can find me here on #Mastodon, instead of all the corporately-entangled social media.
