Bishop Ackermann Sets Himself Openly Against Rome: Sex Before Marriage is Not a Mortal Sin

The Bishop of Trier would completely change sexual ethics of the Catholic Church: New marriage after divorce is no "permanent mortal sin." Homosexuality for the bishop no longer  "unnatural".

Trier (kath.net)  Catholics who hold to the teaching of the Catholic Church, currently have it  difficult and can expect no support from their pastors in Germany. Several German-speaking bishops have, it appears, firmly resolved to remake the moral teaching of the Catholic Church again. Compared to the Rhein Main Presse  the Bishop of Trier, Stephan Ackermann said, now that it no longer fits the times when "a new marriage after divorce is regarded as permanent state of mortal sin". 
 
When it comes to birth control, the Bishop then pled ignorance and even said: "The distinction of natural and artificial contraception is also somehow artificial.  I'm afraid that no one understandsit any more.." Ackermann  would naturally make large concessions also the subject of "homosexuality". "Based on the Holy Scriptures, which referred to it as a wicked aberration [See Gen 19, 1-29, Romans 1:24-27, 1 Corinthians 6:10;. 1 Tim 1,10], the Church's tradition has always declared  'that homosexual acts are disordered,'" as  it is stated in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. For Ackermann, obviously, this is an outdated idea. To the newspaper, he says, despite this clear finding of the Church, "the Christian image of man is based on the polarity of the sexes, but we can not just say that homosexuality is unnatural" What the Catholic Church really says on this subject: http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/_P85.HTM

QUOTE from the HOLY SCRIPTURE:  For this cause God delivered them up to shameful affections. For their women have changed the natural use into that use which is against nature. And, in like manner, the men also, leaving the natural use of the women, have burned in their lusts one towards another, men with men working that which is filthy, and receiving in themselves the recompense which was due to their error.(Romans 1:26-27.

United Nations commends Francis for his "progressive" views of homosexual Catholic clergy

Another episode in the history of the modernist Vatican

There appears to be no end in sight to the crisis faced by victims of pederasty in the Catholic Church. While Francis has assigned a "commission" to study the infestation of sexual abuse in the Church, those who have been legally and publicly exposed for their implication in pederasty cover-ups, are still running around footloose and fancy-free.

Case in point: Cardinal Roger Mahony, Archbishop Emeritus of Los Angeles, concelebrated a Mass with Francis during a recent visit to Rome – andcontinues to serve on the Board of Trustees of the Papal Foundation. Mahony actively posts his proclamations on Twitter and on his blog, as if nothing has happened – in spite of the fact that he was at the center of one of the most scandalous and expensive series of sexual abuse legal settlements, in the Church's history.

Yes, Mahony Tweets and blogs as if nothing has happened.

Because nothing has happened.

Here is Cardinal Mahony's Twitter post, on January 13, 2014:
"Am in Rome for meetings of the Office for Economic Affairs; time to approve the annual Budget for the works of the Holy See worldwide."Imagine that, Cardinal Roger Mahony, the man who left the Archdiocese of Los Angeles in moral ruins – and in near financial ruin as a result of multi-million dollar sexual abuse settlements and obscene expenses in defense attorney fees, is boasting about his approval of the annual budget for the works of the Holy See worldwide.

And to make sure the world did not miss out on the details of his trip to Rome, Cardinal Mahony posted the following on Twitter, on January 16, 2014:
"Today in Rome I was able to concelebrate Mass with Pope Francis, and to have a private Audience with him later. Cardinalrogermahonyblogsla[dot]blogspot[dot]it."

"The Vatican appears to ignore the fact that so many children's lives, along with their families, were destroyed by pederasts acting as priests in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, under Cardinal Roger Mahony's reign of terror. One can only assume that the massive multimillion-dollar settlement paid to the victims by the L.A. Archdiocese is enough – as far as the Vatican is concerned. As such, Mahony continues to enjoy his retirement.

The United Nations

Meanwhile, a panel at the United Nations has issued a report condemning the Vatican's abysmal record in handling sexual abuse cases, citing the U.N.'s Convention on the Rights of the Child. This is perplexing to say the least, since the United Nations promotes homosexuality as a human right, all over the world; therefore, it's obvious that the U.N. is impervious to the fact that over 85% of the reported sexual abuse cases in the Catholic Church, are committed by pederasts. This figure may be even higher, given that many pederasty cases go unreported.

The strangeness surrounding the modernist Vatican has reached a whole new level, since Francis arrived in Rome. Francis is now known for the effervescent way in which he shoots from the hip – such as when he issued his famous statement,"Who am I to judge...?" – referring to homosexual priests who seek God. Francis is also the first man to sit on the Throne of Peter, while being featured as Person of the Year, on the cover of a homosexual magazine called The Advocate.

Lord please help us.

Is he really setting himself openly against Rome?

No, I agree DM.  I feel that he is more laying the groundwork for the complete sellout to liberalism.
