THE REGRETTABLE HOMOSEXUALISATION OF THE PRIESTHOOD , RELIGIOUS ORDERS AND MONASTERIES.

Every diocese now has a clique of homosexual priests .

Every religious order now has a clique of homosexual religious.

This corruption of priesthood and religious life is allowed and encouraged by bishops religious superiors and abbots.

In Ireland this situation is most present in dioceses, the Dominicans and the Redemptorists.

We have seen two active homosexual monastic superiors exposed in recent weeks:

1. Dom Richard Purcell Cistercian monk and abbit of Mount Mellary in the diocese of Waterford and Lismore.

Purcell

2. Prior Mark Kirby of Silverstream in Meath diocese.

Kirby

Neither Phonsie Cullinan of Waterford or Tom Deenihan have commented publicly.

Phonsie
Dennihan

Phonsie installed and blessed Purcell as an abbot.

Silverstream is a diocesan monastery and Deenihan has full power over it.

Public immorality is involved in both cases and both bishops have nothing to say about this public immorality.

Why I wonder?

Phonsie has always been quick enough to lecture the laity on contraception, same sex marriage etc.

Is he not at all concerned that an abbot residing in his jurisdiction is having sex with monks, priests and others?

In fact, Phonsie seems to be Purcell’s friend ‘ visiting the monastery and going to Los Angeles together.

ABBOT GENERAL OF THE CISTERCIANS

Eamon Fitzgerald.

I had emails and a long telephone conversation with the Abbot General.

It was in fact the Abbot General told me personally of Purcell’s homosexual conduct in Roscrea Monastery.

The Abbot General in fact said that the Cistetcians were hoping Roscrea was a one off.

Now we know its was not a one off.

Now we know forgive the pun, that its a HABIT!

We hold that it is IMMORAL for a man to make a VOW of MARRIAGE to a woman and have sex with anybody else.

Should we not equally hold that it is IMMORAL for a bishop, priest or monk to make a VOW of CHASTITY to God and have sex with others?

Why should bishops, priests and monks hold married people to higher standard than they hold themselves to?

The truth is that nowadays the priesthood and religious life is the best place to get away with hypocrisy and double standards.

Join the priesthood or religious life and be on a pedestal, have everything material you need, and have an entree into the world of senseless bonking – and fuck (literally) poverty, chastity and obedience.

“Join the navy and see the world”.

Join the priesthood / religious life and get your hole!

The current situation is not only immoral and hypocritical.

It is the realm of the Father of Lies.

But then did a Pope not say: “The smoke of Satan has entered the Church”.

They remind me of lamped rabbits, Pat. When the torch shines on them they freeze.

These bishops and abbots, when the torchlight of exposure falls on them, they too freeze – including those asked to “investigate”.

They are paralysed. Their motto is “whatever you say, say nothing”. They don’t know what to do or say, so they say and do nothing.

They go silent and inert. They answer no questions. Ignore all questions. Look dumbly at anyone asking questions and pay mute. Our lips are sealed and so are we. More tightly sealed than any tomb.

They hope the oncoming truck won’t hit them. It already has. Spiritually, they are already roadkill.

Jesus never intended a priesthood.
The existence of this, modelled on the imperial secularism and the paganism of Ancient Rome, is why we are now experiencing the disintegration of the Romanist Church.
As a creation of men rather than God, it is, as Gamaliel would have said, bound to fail. And it IS failing, but in the process of its own, inevitable destruction, it is seriously wounding others.
Whoever offers even one penny to support this evil institution is complicit in its works, and is delaying (but not preventing) the day when Christ’s followers can rejoice that this yoke, the evil burden of priesthood, has been removed from around their necks.
Be alert, though, to the cries in their defence. These men will play marytr to the end, because they are liars and deceivers, and this is how liars and deceivers behave. They know that their days are numbered: days of privilege , indolence, self-aggrandisement, sponging and mooching.
God is cleansing his church of the foulness that is priesthood.
ALLELUIA! 😃

People just have to accept that workforces change. For example, primary school teaching and medical general practice are becoming majority female professions as the old hands retire and females dominate entry. Same with lay theology students and parish pastoral workers. The bin lorries and sewerage works remain 100% male occupations and are likely to be for some time.
There is a similar change in the profile of the religious life and priesthood. There has always been strong representation of lesbians in convents, becoming more overt after Vatican II.
Among the men, the religious life has joined other gay occupations, such as nursing, fashion, ballet, theatre (the arts generally), Oxbridge colleges, Anglican theological colleges (not so much in the evo ones), sunbed salons, sunglasses shops in airports, counselling, and the Royal Navy.
There is no point in trying to fight it, even if you wanted to. Those who make the decisions on entry (bishops, abbots, vocations directors, spiritual directors, formators) are, gay. There is a well-known phenomenon in secular recruitment that recruiters favour people like themselves or who remind them of themselves when they were younger. It seems to be human nature and needs anti-bias training and affirmative action to combat it.
It’s the same phenomenon in the modern priesthood. Gays are recruiting gays. It doesn’t help that the majority of candidates are gay, and until the blog intervened, treated Maynooth as a place of gay wonder and delight.

To stop hypocrisy, secrecy and lies, we need either:

1. The upholding of the teachings (eg marriage is for life, so no Catholic divorces aka annulments, and no ordaining of openly gay men and dismissal of randy monks and priests;

Or

2. Be honest and change the teachings. Tell Catholics they can get divorced, and announce that openly and secretly gay priests are as welcome as straight priests.

+ Pat, I am astounded that the Abbot General of the OCSOs has admitted to you that they knew about previous inappropriate / questionable behaviour relating to Purcell’s sexuality and behaviour……AND that they allowed him to go forward to become Abbot !! One would have though that they would have exercised a certain caution and oversight of Purcell. Indeed, even after he was Abbot, surely someone was keeping a watching brief on him in order to ensure that all was good. His frequent absences from the monastery, trips to Dublin and abroad, etc. etc., surely should have given some grounds for keeping an eye on him. If he wants to behave as it seems he has, then he should not be using the monastery as a base or rest house between his escapades. He should leave and then have the freedom to do what he wants. I could respect that. However, I am sure we will see the usual pattern. He will disappear for a while, go off to some pleasant foreign part for counselling and spiritual direction, he will ‘rediscover’ his vocation and take to being holy and spiritual because he knows what side his bread is buttered on, but underneath it all he will quietly carry on as is, change his modus operandi, but will still be taking the opportunities when he finds them. He has shown himself a manipulator, and will continue being so. The Abbot General will continue to be fooled.

1.20: I would agree with most of your thesis. You are right. Pat has theologised truths, teachings and beliefs to justify his lifestyle. In doing this he has corrupted the Christian message of the gospel, straying very far from CHRIST’S WAY. I have no difficulty in Pat’s openly, gay union. Good luck to him. He should not, however, judge all clerics against his paradigm of living. His is only one way, his way, which is what he has chosen – and many of us do not judge him on his sexuality. What is despicable and morally repugnant is that any priest who does not achieve his (Pat’s) supposed virtues, way of life and perfectionism are assigned to the slaughter house of humiliation, judgment and ridicule. Pat continually forgets that as an “alter Christus” the mindset must be one of mercy, justice, compassion, truthfulness with charity, integrity of conscience, humility and a discernment to know that as an “alter Christus” he cannot play God with people’s lives. I am certain that the Abbot General did not realise that Pat would abuse the information given to him so freely. I could never, ever trust Pat. I will, as I have said before, continue to deepen my prayer, faith, trust in God, be caring to all who call up on my help and live with as much integrity of spirit and humanity as possible. I will seek to try to be of Christ. Today during our church opening time for prayer after a webcam mass, many anxious, worried and concerned individuals and others were asking for prayer and a blessing. I could sense their fears, apprehensions and worries about their families etched yet again on their faces. I offered them a blessing prayer and spoke words of hope for them. Would I ever think of gloating over their mistakes, failures or sins? Would I ever humiliate them in their inability to live their commitment of marriage or because they failed their family? Pat enjoys his self apportioned role of judge, juror and executioner, sadly. All priests are bastards in his mind!!! I contend that Pat is a fraud.

It was people quite a lot older than me that dumbed down the faith just as I would have begun to be able to grow into it. For most commenters here, our devotions are what we picked up when young with perhaps the odd detail cribbed from colourful characters we encountered since. We refuse to be manoeuvred into irrelevant factions (we may choose groups for unrelated reasons). We are more sophisticated than the self-appointed spokespeople are comfortable with.

What are spiritual gifts for? Is Catholic (and almost all protestant) doctrine summed up as: “don’t think you’ve got gifts, because you haven’t”? Surely this is not about prancing about on Sundays. What are you doing for my growth on a dark Thursday? What were they doing for the growth of the monks and those bishops who have an unsure touch (including some who have it in for worthier ones)? I think Rome lost to lugubrious Reich-Kinsey over “orientations” and doesn’t have any overall belief in Holy Spirit.

Hence the crazy contradictions in official documents in recent years, which got dissected here so well in recent months. The RCC has lost too much authority of late because it has abolished subsidiarity, is too prone to back channels and on the larger scale doesn’t generally look after us any more (this is left solely to some individual priests and a few bishops), it just tries to marshal us.

The Homosexulisation of the Monasteries - 1536 to present -- the elephant in the room- the court roomsays:

This article needs additional citations for verification… and fun… … This, I have done 😂
— The Homosexulisation of the Monasteries, occasionally referred to as the Pinking-up of the Monasteries, was the set of administrative and legal processes between 1536 to present day, Henrietta VIII converted monasteries, priories, convents and friaries, in England, Wales and Ireland, into pink palaces where vicious queens would congregate in cliques.
Lesser ornate and plainlooking monasteries were given over to the heterosexual brothers and monks, where l lace or damascus pearl wallpaper was not allowed: however, this did not remain the case for too long: but whilst the case, only polyester vestments were allowed; indeed, anything but would have raised suspicion over ones masculinity.
Residual monasteries were sold off and the funds used to open gay bars, clubs and a chain of gay saunas throughout Europe; most notably, Dom Purcell’s, The Boiler House, being the number one and greatly frequented by clerics and religious, alike, in Rome, today.
——–
Meanwhile, the Dominicans, or God’s Dogs, were a military-like, stringent Order, who campaigned for supreme authority to do as they wished in England and Wales: this culminated in the the Act of Supremacy, which was passed by Parliament in 1534, which made Dom Abbots, Supreme Heads of the Church within England: for
Dom Purcell, and all those like-minded, who bielieved they held Supreme authority — untill the Community and Ecumenical Act of Merseyside 2020, which was passed by Parliament in September of 2020.
This Act culminated in the elephant in the room- the Court room- being discussed more openly: and without fear of reprisal.

The Irish media are probably not interested in any Catholic Church matter. The media are no longer hostile, but just indifferent. They probably don’t have any friends who go to Mass or even know people who go to Mass and they see the Church as a defeated husk.
The Irish media probably feel that they seen it all at this stage and that their readers’ expections are so low that nothing shocks them, or what’s probably worse for the Church, their readers don’t care either way.
Take for example the non-scandal story that no or at most one seminarian joined Maynooth this year. At another time that would have got in the papers, maybe inside as a “news in brief” item, but zilch, no interest. When I entered Maynooth the number of new sems was on the front page of ‘The Irish Times’.

Bishop Pat what is going on up in Liverpool?

It is remarkable, following the publication of various reports into clerical abuse, no collective root and branch national assessment of the catholic church, to include lay people, priests, religious and members of the hierarchy has, to the best of my knowledge , ever taken place.
Why not?
It makes me wonder….

St John the Baptist, Tuebrook, Liverpool. There used to be an organist there called Kieth Simpson,
did he not do a prison sentence around 20 years ago? Apparently he was arrested for doing something illegal in the crypt of St Chad’s Anglican church in Kirby city centre. It involved a video camera if I remember right,
apparently he owned a children’s school clothes shop in Liverpool called Laser schoolwear. He now lives on the Isle of Man and flies small airplane.
What a blast from the past is St John’s,

St John’s Tuebrook they like to dress up and play high church.

It’s almost taken for granted that high church clergy of The Church of England are either gay or lesbian.
If they’re not married then there is a particular type of honesty surrounding it. When they’re married it’s a bit more sinister. The former rector of Tuebrook, Liverpool would be one or them. Wife and 4 kids, perfect family man. But everyone knows (including his wife) what he gets up to in his spare time.
I think that is more scandalous than the goings on of a few roman catholic clergy in gay saunas.

Just found this article from Liverpool Echo.
I remember the local Liberal cuuncillor who looked after the Tuebrook Hope Centre was treated absolutely disgracefully by Rev Paul Nener in 2009.
There was a manager who worked there and she was also treated subhuman.
She had a nervous breakdown.
Rev Nener now lives on Wirral and the Bishop of Chester did not grant him a licence.
Hmm.

The Lancashire Telegraph May 2004
“A PRIMARY school headmaster has been jailed for three and a half years for sexually molesting a young boy.”
The court heard that he was a pillar of the community who had also been a choirmaster and organist at local churches including St James The Great in Haydock. Among those who gave character references for him was the Rev Paul Nener, vicar of Tuebrook, Liverpool.

Well…I was minding my own business earlier this Sunday evening and fiund myself passing St Aloysius Somers Town near Euston Station. Down in the courtyard was a gaggle of young clergy sipping wine and having a wonderful time – you know, sharp suits, high clerical collars, well coiffed and barbered, the lingering smell of expensive cologne hanging in the air. It turns out newly ordained Fr Alex Balzanella celebrated his first Mass there this morning and I guess this soirée was a continuation of the celebrations – hopefully maintaining the requisite social distancing and not sharing embraces and air kisses. There wasn’t a soup stained shirt front in sight, all very sharp and presenting their best clerical gear and look. It takes time and money to turn out so well, I would think. I notice also that a Plenary Indulgence is offered to those who attended Fr Alex’s first Mass, contingent on the usual conditions, and in the newsletter Fr Jeremy Trood ( now there’s a name that sets its own scene ! ) explains at some length the meaning and benefits of a PI. Ahhhh, such a scene of clerical self satisfaction and contentment on the doorstep of Euston Station in a late summer’s evening…..

Clerical exceptionalism is the norm so I imagine the Fathers didn’t think that any restrictions applied to them. As in most things. Like celibacy. As we see all the time.

None of this surprises me, because human nature, whatever the era, is a mathematical constant.
Romanist priests were behaving with sexual and criminal abandon even then, in the days of ‘holy Ireland’. They were raping kids, and their lying bishops were covering up, and covering for them.
This filth and criminality has SFA to do with the Second Vatican Council, as some retards on this blog continually bleat.
Romanist priesthood was never intended by Christ. And its morally degenerate history proves the point.
True Christians should pray for the annihilation of this evil cult.
Stop funding these parasites, please: they are devouring souls.

Your emotional and emotive involvement in the issues you write about clouds your judgement to a colossal degree. I doubt that a single person has been persuaded of the rightness, much less the attractiveness of any position ever espoused by you here. What good is it that you post here in such intemperate terms? It’s not benefitting you. Even though you don’t use your former pseudonym your rage is impossible to conceal.

Bishop Pat, could I make a request for an article? I’ve noticed that traditionalist sites including Catholic Truth Scotland seem to deny the existence of COVID-19 and also seem to move in the direction of home schooling and Brexit etc.
Why is this?
