Faithful Catholic writer says “Dallas should be understood as a call to arms!”
July 2, 2002 (LSN.ca) – Fred Martinez, in his June 26 Newsmax article, Sex Abuse Wars: How CBS, ABC, NBC and the Gay Movement Suppress Free Speech, exposes media bias in reporting of the bishops’ Dallas meeting. Martinez reports that a major gay activist organization triumphed that discussion of the homosexual and dissent issues was shutdown by the media and many bishops. The Newsmax article also reveals that aggressive attempts will be made by the media and homosexual activists to sabotage the Apostolic Visitation of the seminaries. Excerpts: With the Apostolic Visitations of U.S. seminaries expected to begin in August [and expected to last for two years], Dignity/USA and other church reform groups are going to be monitoring to see whether Vatican leaders will quietly attempt to purge gay men from the priesthood. GLAAD will be working closely with Dignity and our respective contacts inside the church to make sure the media are closely monitoring the process and outcomes of these visitations.
Time’s May 20 issue in its preparation for the Apostolic Visitations of U.S. seminaries showed its strategy by using words like “hate” and “scapegoat” to color faithful Catholics and the Church’s attempt to uphold its 20-centuries-old moral teachings in its own seminaries. The piece quoted a homosexual priest saying, “We’re all sort of like Anne Frank’s family, up in the attic, waiting for the Nazis to come.”

Do the degree that Catholics laity fail to defend authentic Catholic teaching, they are themselves complicit. To the degree that Catholics fail to become involved at the schools, university, parish and diocesan levels, they are equally to blame for the state of the Church in the US in the coming years” See US Bishops and the “S” word https://www.lhla.org/world/newframe.cfm?var=38
