Cardinal Bertone faces many challenges the Church encounters. At times, sure, maybe he say's "off the cuff" remarks or remarks are taken out of context. He is human, he makes mistakes. We all do! I am not justifying anything but I am saying, let us take a moment to pray for our leaders who are faced with pressure from inside our Church and outside. Pray for our Pope, our bishops, priests and laity! United in Christ, not divided in Him!
I can't believe the comments on this. Catholics calling other people fags and throwing direct derogatory comments? This is not of Christ, whether a person disagrees with Cardinal Bertone or not, is no reason to start attacking another person. I read ALL of the comments and there is no justification for this whatsoever! I don't agree with my superiors all of the time but this would not warrant such a reprisal.
@friarstevenboucher Point taken, Fr. Steven. My apologies to you. I will do what I can to rectify the matter, begining with removing the postings that hurt your feelings. I completely submit to your advice and am obedient to your guidance.
@gracestephanie I suppose you're speaking of his remarks about pedophilia and homosexuality. He simply was saying that most of the priests who were found to have abused children were homosexuals in that they mostly abused boys. He was right; but mainstream media sensationalized his remarks and made him out to be speaking about the general population. He wasn’t. Sometimes we have to get to the facts before we could draw conclusions. Your passion to stand up for our faith is noble. =)
so, are you a theologian or a an expert in pedophilia? Is that why you have videos of half-naked boys dancing in your channel? Again with the hypocrisy. You call on the church to be pastoral but exercise none of it yourself. Instead, you throw a “I know more that you” response to me. I could care less; but I at least hope you feel better about yourself. Enjoy your dancing naked boys - that part I'm sure you know mroe abot than me. I’m done with you.
@gracestephanie@gracestephanie Where I come from, you're gay if you engage in sexual acts with someone f the same gender. Does theology teach otherwise or re you also an expert in behavioral patterns and psychology?
Be careful what you claim in your statements. I can’t believe someone of your academic disposition would indict the church of treating anyone as God; because That would be idolatry. Is that how you use theology? To persecute the church?
@gracestephanie aren't you special. Thanks listing credentials. Wee're not discussing biblical interpretations, so an exegesis is moot. The substance oof the theology you study teaches charity & a call to depart from hypocrisy. Since you speak so well about judging, I ask that you exercise that restraint upon yourself and not pass severe opinions about the Cardinal. You should know to incorporate all aspects of one's acts – not just what he did in the last six months.
as I remember, fraternal counsel is calling your bretheren to his errors - litterally counseling him in person. You on the on the other hand soapboxed on you tube. There’s a big difference there. By the way, if the cardinal were to protect a head piece, it would be his Zucchetto.
@gracestephanie oh my... if he was after protecting his title, as you aluded to, it would be the zucchetto. No sense protecting a symbol of his doctorate, sine he earned it already. There isn't any liturgical significance to the biretta - matter of fact, he only wears it in Mass if he's in choir and not concelebrating. You're just showing off how much you know form wikipedia. I'm really done. You have no humility - I won't feed your lust to run your mouth. Good evening to you.
These men have publicly lied about the 3rd secret of Fatima.Especially Bertone,under ''pope benedict xvi''s guidance.The truth will out.

We can disagree with one another, that's fine. But to start attacking each other with such vial words, not Catholic folks, not Catholic at all.

I like Benedict. but Bertone I can do without. The Church needs leadership, not more Vatican cheerleaders.

@gracestephanie "He lost all my respect since then and I say that as a theologian."
A theologian? Don't you mean as a gay man not a theologian. Your you-tube favorites are most revealing to your true motivations.
