Anyone who turns a blind eye to this is willfully ignorant and complicit in the Catholic Churches crimes against children. This type of behavior is not considered stumbling when it was going on for more than half a decade. This is a lifestyle statement that speaks volumes about the Church. This is considered willful sinning as is described in Hebrews 10:26-31. And this is just in Los Angeles alone for crying out loud. Over 1300 claims of child abuse by the hands of 100 priests. Wow.
Hebrews 10:26-31 King James Version
26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
It spanned a half-century in this Church Archdiocese alone. Something I have been emphasizing for decades that the Church has been engaged in this behavior for centuries. If you think this is God’s church you are just willfully blind and a complicit fool who will be the recipient of God’s judgment as well for supporting abominable sins through association and silence.
That’s why God commands us to prove what we believe and follow him and what his word says and not men as their actions/behavior conflict with his word. Do your research on the Catholic Church and stop lying to yourselves. Who are you going to believe the Catholic Church or your own lying eyes? These are children we are talking about here. This is not necessarily an indictment against Catholic lay members who don’t know the history of the Church but against the Catholic Church establishment that is well aware of the crimes but still turn a blind eye to them. Don’t be woke, but wake the hell up.
