ROBERT BYRNE ALLEGATION REPORTED TO THE POLICE.

BYRNE

REPLY FROM ARCHBISHOP MC MAHON

PAT SAYS

It is nice to see a prelate like Archbishop Malcolm respond swiftly and with such positive information.

And ++ Malcolm is big enough and confident enough not to engage in any pettiness with regards titles, etc.

It is good that the Robert Byrne allegations will be examined by the police and Vatican.

Let us hope and pray that Truth and Justice will be done.

LUCY NOT HAPPY WITH “SIR”

SR RITA RIP

Hello Pat and all my blog friends- good Christmas cheer to you, and I will raise a glass for you all at my local tomorrow morning. I see I was mentioned on the blog yesterday and as was pointed out, I’ve not been here in a while. Another stomach pumping episode, I’m afraid. Bit under the weather for the last week or so, but at least I enjoyed getting that way, and now I am fixed up and ready to go again. As usual the nurses were brilliant- you couldn’t pay them enough. Some anxiety for my liver, but YOLO after all- and I will eventually party with the angels. Wishing you all festive cheer and will have a toast in your honour dear Pat!

“It is nice to see a prelate like Archbishop Malcolm respond swiftly and with such positive information.”
Malcolm’s swiftness is in complete contrast to Tom Deenihan who dillied and dallied for two months before reporting to the Gardaí. Tom even took the step of confirming Dom Mark as Prior before reporting the harassment to the Gardaí. How could Tom Deenihan report allegations of misconduct to the Gardaí while confirming the accused in a leadership position?
The Abbey of Saint Joseph de Clairval should withdraw their support of the Silverstream charade. Dom Benedict Andersen is the rock on which Silverstream could be rebuilt. Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
Anything otherwise will be like rebuilding Silverstream on sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.

Oh dear! Is Miss Lucy a… liar? Would a holy nun knowingly tell untruths? Could she, as a bride of Christ? 😮Because, Pat, if your information source in Salford is as reliable as you believe, then (Oh! I can barely bring myself to say this.) it may be that Miss Lucy is… telling porkies to cover Arnold’s skinny ass! 😰
And to think I had such deference for Catholic religious and clergy, especially the most holy bishops.
Now don’t be cynical. I did… I mean I do… have respect for these people. God’s chosen ones. 😇
Maybe Miss Lucy is just missing the big picture. Maybe she’s, um, factually challenged. Which, of course, would have her miss the mark here, even by the proverbial mile. And through no fault of her own. Naturally. Now THIS is a much pleasanter penseé than believing she might willingly be disseminating misinformation for Mr Arnold, not to mention for his unmentionable part.

I’m glad that Bishop Byrne is being investigated but cautious McMahon willl follow through – he ordained Jolley and find it hard if not impossible to believe he’s an impartial judge of such matters – he’s a notoriously clumsy and gauche prelate (notwithstanding his polite response to Pat).
Feel sorry for the priest – the victim – the pressure willl be on for him to withdraw his allegation and of course all sexual predators know the threshold for evidence is high in criminal proceedings and unless substantive the case won’t see the light of day.
Personally I’d love to see an English bishop in gaol – it would send a message for a societal group who see themselves as above the law.
As for Sr Lucy – clearly Sr Rita was despatchrd by Arnold – Sr Lucy is rattled and classicaly imperious in her tone – a device of many nuns, a nod, I feel to her repressed dominatrix (she knows it, we all know it).
Arnold is rattled too and tge witch-hunt is on to find who blew the whistle..

There certainly will not be any desire for Archbishop Malcolm to withdraw his complaint and as stated it has been sent to the Police.
Give credit where credit is due Archbishop Malcolm has contacted the holy See for permisson to hold an investigation which should be granted quite quickly by Cardinal Ouellet or Cardinal Parolin then sent to the Holy Father Francis for the outcome.
Anyone involved in the Tribunals only wants Justice and I am sure you will find that hard to believe but it is a fact and remember tribuls are a mixture of Clergy and Lay Faithful and well trained.
The sitution in Canon Law like Civil Law is the complainer and witnesses need to stand by their accusations and not stop in the middle and i know cases that they even say they never said that but it is all recorded.
I personally think the Priest should stand aside while the investigation takes place and I think the Priest is the victim but it will be very challanging on him and the witnesses but God willing he will have the strength to see it through and byrne is kicked out by Pope Francis.
If you look at killaloe Bishop Fintan wants Ger and Gerry out but Canon Law is in place and hopefully removed 2023

I would have thought it makes it LESS likely +Byrne would get away with it. “Vos estis” firstly specifically allows for abuse of adults to be considered when there is an imbalance of power eg. Lecturer & Uni student, Bishop & parish priest. The definition of a vulnerable person as “any person in a state of infirmity, physical or mental deficiency, or deprivation of personal liberty which, in fact, even occasionally, limits their ability to understand or to want or otherwise resist the offence” is referring to the victim, not the perpetrator….

No Good Bishop of the RCC wants the bad apples no matter of the rank of the clergy they do not want them and that includes the daisy Chains and all the others that are up to NO good.
The problem in Canon Law is there needs to be proof and stand up and God willing this Priest will stand up and others come forward but the problem is “oh do not say I told you” syndrome or I never said that and it will not stand up and therefore the Bishop is reported for action against the Clergy.
There are many hard working dedicated Clergy in the RCC but the one bad apple starts to rot the cart but the younger / newer Bishops will take action (except what looks like by Bishop Tom D).
I pray for all involed as it is very difficult it what seems to be a horrible nasty case but I have Faith in Archbishop Malcolm and the Holy See and Justice will be done.

I find Robert comical. I know he doesn’t mean to be, and I know I shouldn’t laugh at him, but…
Let me tell you a tale, a true anecdote. I was once acquainted with a guy who claimed Jesus spoke to him. Now, he was utterly sincere, so I quickly ruled out any attempt at deceit and attention-seeking.
On one occasion, he showed me his medication. (Unsolicited, I assure you.) I made a mental note of some of it, and I looked it up when I returned home. Sure enough, as I suspected, he was on psychiatric meds. A huge red flag, but I still didn’t know the nature of his illness.
A few years later, he died. And during his funeral oration, the mystery of his condition was solved: my friend had been a chronic schizophrenic, which, of course, accounted for the voice of Jesus he claimed to hear.
I have no doubt we’ll hear a similar story about Robert Nugent in due course. And then won’t all those who put faith in this fellow feel very foolish indeed?
Thankfully, I put no faith in my schizophrenic acquaintance. I put NO at all faith in those who talk such rampant balderdash.
