Roman Catholic Priests and AIDS

Before starting I want to make it clear I don’t much appreciate speaking on topics such as this. Roman Catholicism is such an evil organization that often we find ourselves forced into displaying her dirty laundry so as to warn her followers of the dangers they face staying in such a church as this. In Ezekiel 3:18-19 we read, "When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul."

I am doing as all Christians would hope to do. We see our fellow man in danger we are compelled to warn them. I am not doing so because I fear having their blood on my hands, but because I have a burden for them as I was once a member of the Roman Catholic church. And yes, I have since denounced it as the prophecied house of Antichrist, because I did in fact find that Scriptures described it as a wicked and hellish church. As a child of the Creator God, I can only go withersoever the Lamb leadedth, and He most assuredly would never lead anyone into harms way.

PRIESTS HIT HARD BY HIDDEN AIDS EPIDEMIC
CNN
January 31, 2000

(AP) -Roman Catholic priests in the United States are dying from AIDS-related illnesses at a rate four times higher than the general population and the cause is often concealed on their death certificates, The Kansas City Star reported in a series of stories that started Sunday.

Four times the national average? That may seem quite amazing to some. Those that live by the sword shall indeed die by the sword, or those that live in decadence shall die in decadence. Still, is this a true figure? Or is CNN once again trying to hide some of the facts that were really reported a couple of days prior? Read this article that ran beforehand that goes into a bit more detail to find out. By the way... You may want to get ready for a shock!

CATHOLIC PRIESTS ARE DYING OF AIDS, OFTEN IN SILENCE

Hundreds of Roman Catholic priests across the United States have died of AIDS-related illnesses, and hundreds more are living with HIV, the virus that causes the disease. The actual number of AIDS deaths is difficult to determine. But it appears priests are dying of AIDS at a rate at least four times that of the general U.S. population, according to estimates from medical experts and priests and an analysis of health statistics by The Kansas City Star. The deaths are of such concern to the church that most dioceses and religious orders now require applicants for the priesthood to take an HIV-antibody test before their ordination.

Think of it! The Roman Catholic church now has their priests SCREENED for HIV before being considered fro the priesthood! One would think a person seeking the priesthood would not be one that would need to worry about such a thing as this. And when they pass the test, Rome still allows them to become priests, even if they know for a fact they are homosexuals. Biblically speaking, we all know that the human priesthood of the Bible was abolished at the cross of Christ, and now our one and only High Priest resides in Heaven doing the work of the Investigative judgment as we speak. I ask, what priesthood is Rome depicting today, or claiming here on earth? Is it the Levitical priesthood of old? Are each of these priests in Rome considered high priests by the Creator's standards? Looking back in time, I see that the Bible illustrates priests that did the work of the Lord to be of impeccable character. The only ones I can find in history, or in the Bible that do as Rome does on a daily basis are Pagan priests of the Babylonian religion of Baal worship.

Through the years, the issue of AIDS deaths among priests has been so sensitive that many of those who later died kept their illnesses a secret. Some death certificates listed AIDS-related conditions such as pneumocystis pneumonia but never mentioned the disease itself. Other certificates were falsified.

Falsified documents? Is it any wonder non-Christians look at Christianity as a farce so often now? When you have a main stream organization such as this running rampant in the name of Jesus Christ, what else can they think? Daily we see acts of violence, decadence, perversion, and blunt evil spewing from this Church. And still the media and most Protestant leaders call the Pope a godly man, and his religion a Heaven sent religion?

By the way, did any of us here about the church being investigated for falsifying death certificates lately? I haven't. And I watch this church like a hawk! However, rest assured if John Q. Public were to doctor a death certificate he would no doubt find himself in court in front of Roman Catholic judges! Rather ironic don't you think?

Exactly how many priests have died of AIDS or are infected with HIV is unknown, in part because many suffer in solitude. When priests do tell their superiors, the cases generally are handled quietly, either at the priests' requests or because church officials are reluctant to discuss them. In 1995, Bishop Emerson J. Moore left the Archdiocese of New York and went to Minnesota, where he died in a hospice of an AIDS-related illness. His death certificate attributed his death to "unknown natural causes" and listed his occupation as "laborer" in the manufacturing industry. After a Minnesota AIDS activist filed a complaint, officials changed the cause of death to "HIV-related illness." The occupation, however, has not been corrected.

Truth is I never heard of this case until I read this article. What amazes me is the church did NOT get in any trouble for being caught red handed lying on the death certificate TWICE. And to make matters worse, once they were caught, they did admit to the AIDS death but refused to change the occupation of the deceased so as to once again hide the fact he was a Roman Catholic Sodomite priest! And STILL they did not get into any trouble whatsoever.

Farley Cleghorn, an epidemiologist with the Institute of Human Virology in Baltimore, said it was common practice with early cases not to disclose AIDS as a cause of death. "The first priest that I saw with AIDS -- this was back in 1982 -- we did not put AIDS on the death certificate, because they wanted us not to," Cleghorn said. "The law says that you have to be truthful in that it's a legal document, and if you lie on a legal document, you could incur penalties. But there is no auditing procedure for a death certificate. And without lying, you could say that the terminal event was the stopping of the heart and the cessation of respiration."

What I see here is Rome playing the system once again. They know the penalties, IF ENFORCED, would be minimal if at all. And they would still be able to keep it quite anyway. Common decency is thrown out the door once again by those that claim to be the moral standard for our world. I wonder, were any children infected by these Roman Catholic priests? One can rest assured that if they were, the Roman Catholic church would swoop down on that family with money and even lethal force so as to prevent a scandal such as this! Seriously, think of it! It would make all the child rapes suspect to such scrutiny that even Rome with all it’s billions would be unable to survive! Law suits on even the “possibility” of being exposed would no doubt be the norm, and those that were exposed would be quite graphic as well as quite costly!

The Star alone -- through death certificates and interviews with fellow priests and family members -- found information on about 100 priests who have died of AIDS nationwide since the mid-1980s. And many priests and medical experts now agree that at least 300 priests have died. That translates into an annualized AIDS-related death rate of about 4 per 10,000 -- four times that of the general population's rate of roughly 1 per 10,000 and about double the death rate of the adult male population.

Now, keep in mind this is just ONE investigative reporter digging into this. And it has already been revealed that most of the priests that die of AIDS will never be found thanks to false death certificates. So 4 times the national average is most likely a spurious total. In fact, the article goes on to say that…

Other statistics and experts suggest that those estimates are too conservative.

For example, the annualized death rate of priests confirmed by The Star to have died of AIDS in Kansas and Missouri from 1987 to 1999 is 7 per 10,000, or seven times that of the general population. That death rate is consistent with the rate calculated by The Star after reviewing death certificates of priests who died in California, Missouri and Massachusetts in 1995.

Again, please make note that this single solitary investigative reporter for the Kansas City Star is only talking about the totals she has found in THREE STATES when speaking of the 1995 totals! And one more note of interest would be that it is now September of 2004 (when I made this page) that I am sharing these facts. The article was written and published in January of 2000. In fact, my January of 2000 Newsletter was on this topic. Kinda makes one wonder as to how many are dying now doesn’t it? Well according to the article, it is far worse then once thought.

The finding: six priests -- or 7.3 per 10,000 -- died of AIDS in those states that year. The AIDS death rate of the general population in those three states in 1995 was 1.8 per 10,000. A.W. Richard Sipe, a former priest who has spent more than 30 years studying sexuality issues in the church, thinks that about 750 priests nationwide have died of such illnesses. That would translate into an AIDS-related death rate eight times that of the general population. Joseph Barone, a New Jersey psychiatrist and AIDS expert, puts the number of U.S. priests who have died at 1,000 -- nearly 11 times the rate of the general population.

"And the church just doesn't want to admit it." -

ELEVEN TIMES THE RATE OF THE GENERAL POPULATION OF THE USA? 11 TIMES? Is this not an open and shut case people? Does this make one wonder if in fact Cardinal Bernardine died of AIDS instead of Cancer as the Vatican states back in November of 1996? Why do I make such an assumption? Do you recall Steven Cook coming forward some years back proclaiming that he was molested by Cardinal Bernadine? Do you also remember that Cook was dying of AIDS when he came forward? He came forward because he needed money before he died. And do you also recall that his "regressed memories" suddenly changed the very next day AFTER receiving a large sum of money from the Church? And finally, do you also recall that Bernadine died soon afterwards of what the Catholic church is calling "Cancer?"

By the way… If Cook really did have bogus "implanted" or "regressed" memories as the church claimed that day. Is it possible to remove such memories WITHIN HOURS? Are there not documented cases the World over that have proven to remove such artificially implanted memories is an ongoing tedious task that can take months, and USUALLY years to correct successfully, if at all? So how is it Cook's memory is "corrected" within hours after making the public announcement? Does the Roman Church have a miraculous cure for this? Nope... it's just simple GREED! Money can 'remove' many problems in the lives of those it controls? (they think)

By the way, I know what some of you may be thinking. Numbers can only mean one thing. Science taught us many years ago that the best way to find where an epidemic started is to trace it back to the original source. As is always the case, wherever the largest concentrate of infected individuals is, one can only come to the conclusion that this is where the epidemic logically and scientifically began. Case in point, this is how they found Typhoid Mary. Am I saying AIDS began in the Roman Catholic priesthood? Well… with Roman Catholic priests dying of AIDS eleven times greater then anyone else... you do the math.

Even if none of the prophecies that openly prove this Church is being controlled by the Beast were ever to be uttered by Christians to expose it, this evidence of decadent behavior should be proof enough for those loyal Catholics still trapped within the walls of this Church TO GET OUT NOW! These vile and putrid fruits speak volumes unto the heart that this is NOT the Church of Jesus Christ. Denial of this FACT must end in their hearts now. This church has been puffing up it's chest proclaiming itself "Another god on Earth" for so long that finally it has come to a place of open and apparent JUDGMENT before the eyes of mankind. And according to the book of Revelation, this open evidence of evil within this church is going to get more graphic in the days to come. In fact, I originally reported on this decadence in Rome back in January of 2000 when word came out about the AIDS epidemic within the Vatican. Within those few years we have seen a bevy of evils come forth from Rome. Everything from the massive scandal of child rape, to the lawsuits the Vatican is dealing with now regarding war crimes they did with Hitler.

How long will this church of apparent evil pronounce they walk as Jesus Christ proclaimed His children would walk? How long will they torture, murder, molest, deceive, and destroy? How long shall this church mock a mighty and ever living God? Well, at the rate of 11 times that of the national average, it appears not much longer...

So I ask, is homosexuality a problem in the Roman Catholic church? It appears to be the case dosen’t it? Over the last few years the Roman Catholic church has openly and rather disgustingly declared it's approval of the homosexual lifestyle. A lifestyle that is not only bluntly condemned in the Old Testament, but in the New Testament as well, So, why is it a 'professed' Christian church is having such a brood of problems with such an abomination as this? Need I ask? In the Word we find truth in this matter.

People the world over claim this passage as obsolete mainly because it is found within the pages of the Old Testament. Even though the Lord God states ever so plainly in Malachi 3:6 that, "I am the LORD, I change not;..." Just because it's in the Old Testament, doesn't mean it’s abolished. If that were so, why did Jesus and His Apostles before and after His resurrection and ascension, quote so often from the Books of the Old Testament? Also if the Old Testament is no longer valid on this subject, then have the Roman Church explain these verses...

It is easily seen in the New Testament that the sin of homosexuality is still considered an abomination unto the Lord. Yet the Catholic church has been wrestling with this sin for hundreds and hundreds of years. In fact, I believe they have had this problem since day one, for Daniel himself prophecied that this church would be homosexual in nature.

They unknowingly justify doing it with an unBiblical twist on God's Word. Simply put, 'a lie' is what they base this on because that's all they believe. You can actually use this passage in a multitude of ways when speaking of Catholic dogma, however I will "stick to the subject" at hand for now. In an article about homosexuals in San Francisco we see Bishop Levada making the following statements...

"Catholic Charities has more than $5 million worth of contracts with the city, but for Levada, more important is Catholic doctrine that says while simply being a homosexual is not a sin... Chgo SunTimes Feb. 16, 1997 Section Religion p. 34 art. S.F., Catholic Charities battle over benefits for gay partners"

This statement is in direct conflict with what the Word of God reveals as Truth. One would wonder why the Roman church would take such a stand and make such an open and bold statement that can be easily thwarted in the Word of God. Well, reading further in that same article it's revealed why Roman Catholic Bishop Levada would make such an error filled and Un-Biblical remark.

"Gays and Lesbians are a significant voting bloc in San Francisco." -Ibid

Did you notice the beginning of the article? It states the church has more than $5 million worth of contracts with the city of San Francisco. And as I am sure many are aware, San Francisco is predominately homosexual. Do you think if Rome would have kept the faith according to the Truth revealed in God's Word they would have jeopardized their meal ticket in this city by being voted down? ABSOLUTELY!

It's so sad when a church that is trusted by billions decides to crash downward by putting the 'almighty' dollar before the Almighty Creator and His written Word. Isn't this always the case with this church? It always places it's desires before that of the God they profess to worship. But again, I think I should stick to the subject.

Think of all the trusting souls within this church that may have been wrestling with homosexuality in their lives, or the lives of their loved ones. They just received the final 'ok' they needed to make the decision whether to explore this burning sensation of sin from within themselves. The other toss of the coin is, their family and friends have just been told 'it's no longer sin' for them to walk this sinful way. So why bother preaching to their loved ones about the dangers of their sin filled lifestyle? Another article on the same subject goes even further in its acceptance of immorality over godliness. It’s also from that same Cardinal that supposedly never molested Steven Cook, and supposedly never died of AIDS.

Cardinal Bernardin states...
"...gays are children of God, that they should be loved and that Catholics ought to defend their rights. ... God's plan for sexuality ... is best fulfilled in a stable union... But to teach that in no way is to belittle a person who may have a homosexual orientation." Chgo SunTimes Oct. 21, 1994 p. 18 art. Bernardin Letter Tackles Hot Topics for Teenagers

I am NOT saying we should go out and show hatred toward every homosexual we meet. Not at all! That is not what Jesus Christ would have us do! But to say they are the 'children of God' lends one to believe this lifestyle is accepted by God. A child of God is one that believes and follows their Lord in ALL aspects of life, including sexuality. For the Bible tells us how to be the children of God. Ephesians 5:1 says we must "Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;" If we walk in conflict to His Word, how can we be His children? How can we say we are FOLLOWING God when we walk against His will so openly and purposely?

Reading a few verses further we find the true description of one who would delight in this sinful lifestyle. Ephesians 5:6 states... "Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience."

Homosexuals are NOT 'children of God" plain and simple! Tthey are children of disobedience. For Bernardine to say that all Catholics must defend their rights would mean all Catholics must now acknowledge the homosexual sin as an alternative lifestyle approved by their church. He is openly saying that THEY HAVE THE RIGHT to live as homosexuals, and fellow Catholics must "defend their rights" to be homosexual. And in the same breath he is saying they are NOT in sin when he states, "God's plan for sexuality is best fulfilled in a stable union." In other words, he is saying this may not be the "best" union that God's plan for sexuality entails, but they are not to be "belittled" for choosing it. Using the word "best" here is to imply there are "other" ways within God's plan besides the "best" way. The word "best" is strategically placed in this statement so as to please the sinner.

The way I see it, the word "best" here should be REPLACED with the word, "ONLY." Then and only then, is it made clear what Scriptures define as a stable union. This is of course assuming Bernardine is using the word "stable" to imply man and woman. But of course, truth like this is not the desire of the Catholic church. For all areas must remain "open" so as to allow for soul coveted implications that sin can be grasped as a desired choice sanctioned by the church. This eventually results in 100% allegiance to be granted unto Satan in the deepest areas of the heart when the "Christian" believes that which he or she is doing is no longer considered sin. And this is one very lethal mistake. Why do you think Catholicism is so popular? Over 1.2 BILLION call it home. Where else can you find a religion that says you can be saved while still IN your sins?

By the way, did you notice the title of that article? It was “Bernardin’s Letter Takles Hot Topics for Teenagers.” Still, this church attacks the youth of the world and no one seems to notice or care. They are making the Homosexual lifestyle appear normal and acceptable to TEENAGERS in that article! And this is not just one mere article. There are now thousands all over the Internet directed to all of our children right now! Rome hopes to create a majority here!

Catholic Church Reaches Out to Gays
Religion Today April 9, 2001
By Stephen Huba,
Scripps Howard News Service

In an effort to make its parishes more "open and welcoming" to homosexuals, a growing number of U.S. dioceses have established a ministry for gay and lesbian Catholics. But the ministry has not been easy. Church teaching also stresses the inherent dignity and worth of homosexuals, he said. "There is no moral guilt in being homosexual, and so the church's job is to help homosexuals live chaste live." Homosexuals are encouraged to receive the sacraments and participate in church life, so long as they abide by church teaching.

Both Old and New testament Scriptures declare the Homosexual lifestyle AN ABOMINATION unto God. They should be evangelized to REPENT of their sinful desires and become Heterosexual. However, if you are a Catholic, it's not only "ok" to be homosexual, it's considered an accepted Christian choice? The Word is plain, homosexuality is an abomination to God. These people need prayer and healing. They need demons cast out of them immediately.

Truth is people, to mock a mighty God is just plain stupid! His Word has no gray areas when speaking of this sin or any sin. The fact of the matter is this. The Roman Catholic Church says the homosexual lifestyle is not a sin, and the faithful Catholics must believe that what their leaders say is true, even if it can be proven otherwise by using their very own bibles. In fact there are numerous situations in the Roman Catholic Doctrinal statements that can be proven in direct conflict with God's Word simply by opening a Bible. The Catechism of Roman Catholicism for example has already been proven by this ministry as well as many others to be a lie. Over 86% of their doctrines have absolutely no basis in Scripture. The doctrinal book in question is…

Were you aware that out of the 448 Questions in this book of Catholic doctrine there were 776 answers due to the fact that many of the questions had multiple answers. Some had as many as 17 answers to a single question. For example, when asking what the names of the apostles were, you would get 13 answers. The reason you would get 13, is because Judas committed suicide, and Matthias was chosen by God to take his place.

Out of all these questions regarding "Catholic Doctrine," were you aware that there were only 56 Bible verses listed as answers to the questions?! And more than 75% of those Bible verses were taken completely out of context! But for the sake of illustration, let's give the Vatican the benefit of a doubt and "assume" that all 56 Bible verses used were "in context," shall we? That would mean, 56 Bible verses used for 776 answers equates to 13.8% of the questions having Bible verses given to explain, or confirm them. That means a whopping 86.2% of the answers were NOT found in the Bible! Yet, the faithful Catholic ignores this? Could the following quote have anything to do with it...?

"...we should always be ready to accept this principal: I will believe that the white that I see is black, if the hierarchical Church defines it as such." -The Spirit Exercies of St. Ignatius, p. 141, -By Ignatius de Loyola

It appears this is the case. This is exactly what got me to LEAVE this church many years ago. I recall reading in the Bible certain doctrinal facts. Then I read in the Catechism that the Roman Church was teaching the exact opposite of what Scriptures taught. They DO tell you that black is white! And they DO teach that you better believe it or else! Their priests place themselves above the bible as so many mini-gods.

Some may think that Rome has only recently become a homosexual organization. But when looking into the Vatican with all it’s perverted artworks of naked men, one must realize a deep engrained lust for the male body is apparent here. Look at the paintings on the ceilings of the Sistine Chapel alone. The grand majority depict naked men running about. Sure, some will declare that some of the men have sheets of fabric covering their private parts. But looking closer it appears they are either painted to suggest those towels are about to fall off, or they are painted to suggest they should be completely naked.

The Roman Catholic Church can tell you to your face they have no problem with Homosexuality. MANY of their Priests can look you square in the eye and tell you bold face lies that they are not Sodomites. They can even recruit their parishioners to go on an all out campaign proclaiming the Roman Church is not having a problem with "homosexual" Priests. They can even alert the media and say that the homosexual lifestyle is not necessarily sin so that the 'obviously' homosexual Priests can be accepted as homosexual, and still considered not 'in' sin. They can tell you bold face lies that their Priests do not practice the Homosexual lifestyle as well. But the fact of the matter is this. LIES ARE VERY EASY TO EXPOSE!

How long will they continue to attack the children of the world? Again I say, at the rate of 11 times the national average, not much longer!

I know this is a touchy subject to say the least. And some may be offended by the truths laid out here. So, before you send me emails proclaiming yourself as one who was “created or born homosexual.” You need to address these simple facts before emaling me, because I will be asking you to explain this when you contact me.

As was just illustrated, the Word declares rather plain that homosexuality is in fact an abomination unto the God that created you to be Heterosexual. That is no longer a debatable issue now. It is written by that very God! There is no way around that. Plus, even your most vocal advocates declare as such when they were able to have laws passed that place Christians in jail for using a Bible to try and warn you. Their fear of the truth regarding this is so bluntly apparent now. Seriously! If I may coin the phrase... If they weren't "Bible-Phobic's" then why do they seek laws against Christians preaching from Bibles to Homosexuals?

By the way… Just recently is was reported that some homosexual Hollywood stars admit to ripping out certain pages of the bible in all the Hotel rooms they frequent so that future seekers will never find the truth regarding this decadent lifestyle. That too graphically exposes their fear. How many pages will they rip out? There is a LOT of evidence that this lifestyle is evil in the Holy Writ, so they may as well just brun the Bible don't you think? Plus, Biblical fact is, even if they do rip out all those pages, it is still well known that nothing evil comes from the Creator's hand. So, I ask how can a God that already stated this lifestyle is a sin, create people to perform this lifestyle?
