Catholics are considering rapists for saints

[Basilissa]

There isn't much about the Catholic heresy that shocks me anymore. Their priests rape boys. Their priests rape nuns. They abort babies of girls raped by their priests. Their nuns embezzle money. They worship statues, disobeying the Second Commandment, so they changed the Ten Commandments. Many of their saints are pagan deities. The list goes on and on and on. None of these facts even raise my eyebrows anymore; I got so used to the fact that Catholics hate God and apparently wish to be tormented in forever and ever, that most of their atrocities don't surprise nor shock me.

However, today I accidentally tuned in to the local PBS station (I was trying to get to Fox News after watching a program on TCT, but my tv remote had a low battery), and I have listened - in sheer horror - to this:

As a young boy, Gianni Bisoli alleges that one of his aggressor's wasn't just a cleric, but the late bishop of Verona, Giuseppe Carraro.
This is the same path where Gianni Bisoli remembers walking as a young boy, the same path to the bishop's residence. Now that same bishop is on a path to sainthood, thanks in part to Pope Francis.
A probe by the Verona Diocese failed to interview any of the alleged victims, but cleared the late bishop anyway. And in 2015, Pope Francis signed a decree of heroic virtue on his behalf, a step towards sainthood.

Here is the to the whole transcript as well as video.

That did disturb me. I mean, I know that the rape culture is what they teach in the Catholic seminary, but my understanding was that this behavior was supposed to be secret, rapes kept hush-hush, and damages covered up.

But now it seems they are officially coming out, and publicly announcing their rape culture, by deeming as venerable a man who embraced* the gay rape lifestyle. That means now the Catholic people have the Pope's permission to pray to the man who preyed on vulnerable young boys. And the Church authorities will be waiting for miracles, and as soon as the Church certifies two miracles, the rapist bishop will become an officially recognized saint.

Don't get me wrong - I'm happy for the Catholics that they decided to leave their hypocrisy behind. I'm sure it's the easier solution, rather than actually getting rid of the rape culture within clergy. Still, I'm speechless.

Dearest Sister,

In the wicked inner sanctum of la iglesia Catolica you will uncover the most sordid things you can imagine. Although I can’t quote the sources at this moment because of a low battery I have personal experience with this because of my former affiliation with Papism. Many is the time I was subjected to rituals that honored the devil and seemed to glorify men whose allegiance was solidly anti Christian.

I knew young men whose nether regions became a source of demonic activity at the hands of ring kissing Mary worshiping evildoers. I would freely watch this horror unfold as my friends were subjected to the sins of the flesh in basements and rectories and wondered how I would ever finish the refreshments placed in front of me while I awaited my turn.

It was terrible. Sometimes whole bowls of candy were wasted.

Catholics have no shame. How the Lord found me is miraculous indeed and how He saved me is something for which I shall praise Him forever.

Re: Catholics are considering rapists for saints

This is all quite complicated. Even we Baptists know the child, the rape victim, is a sinner just like the priest who raped him/her. We Baptists know the child can ask Jesus directly for forgiveness and that sin is taken care of.

But with the Catholics, the sinful victim has to ask for forgiveness at confession. If the child stops going to confession and never owns up to his/sins the rapist is on his way to sainthood.

I have to admit putting the Catholic clergy between God and folks in the pews is a smart business model. If we Baptists did our business that way Pastor Zeke would have had his Airbus long ago. We know Jesus better than Catholics.

My dear sister, I do believe the Catholics are becoming emboldened by the liberals who have made the Mohammedan Religion untouchable in the ways of criticism. In fact, they've begun a bold advertising campaign to attract men to the priesthood:
