How Catechesis Works in Catholic Schools, Parishes and Apostolates - the Oxygen of a Bishop
This article is a hoot.
The chicken has come home to roost: millionaires are finally cutting off the oxygen of the episcopal hierarchs - money.
Those of us concerned about the dissent and demoralization of Catholic children in our schools and parishes have been begging the bishops cash cows (those faithful to Church teaching of course) to cut off the money for over a decade.
Some of them have complied and told the bishops why and it has been very effective in putting fires out.
Catechesis is controlled by money, even under a faithful bishop if they are weak, in need of money or adulation for their low self-esteem.
These are the facts.
When the Catechism is taught or preached, powerful and rich politically-affiliated folks with agendas complain to Bishop so and so and priests and teachers - and consequently Church teaching are silenced.
It can be countered if faithful millionaires are willing to cut off the oxygen of a bishop.
You want to silence So and So?
No soup for you.
You going to withhold Church teaching?
No soup for you.
Let teachers and priests teach dissent and rob our children of their religion?
No soup for you.
Demoralize our children in Catholic schools?
No soup for you.
Give honors to Herod and Herodias?
No soup for you.
We have a hard time convincing faithful Catholic millionaires to withhold the money.
One has to be willing to put up with being called a no good so and so by your Bishop on his blog or newspaper or in the National Catholic Register. LOL.
That is a tough pill to swallow for the wealthy who are accustomed to sitting beside powerful people at swanky events.
Seriously, who wants to do such a thing?
It is a terrible choice to make.
But when it comes to the preservation of the faith for our children - we have a duty that goes waaaaay beyond making nice with Cardinal So and So or even Pope So and So.
In Boston, we made much progress until Cardinal O'Malley invited Jack Connors back into the seat of power to siphon money from the wallets Jack has the power to influence.
For those of you who do not know who Jack Connors is, he is Democratic party's carefully placed power broker within the Church. Here's an article worth reading to catch up.
Faithful Catholics had all but castrated his power in the Chancery in Boston.
Cardinal O'Malley, God bless him, in desperation for cash we assume, put him back in the seat of power. In exchange for money (and we are told there is very little of it from Jack himself when compared to what he raises for Obama), the structure of the Roman Catholic Church in Boston in terms of catechesis and power has been completely handed over to a group that is controlled by the political Democratic party.
The Cardinal's spokesperson is a Democratic political hack who contradicts Church teaching in the public square.
The Chancery is loaded to the rafters with Connors appointees.
The Cardinal, God bless him, is no longer involved in any decision-making of the local see. The structures in place are now all handled by lay people affiliated with the Democratic National Convention. Committees have replaced the Cardinal in the structure of the Archdiocese of Boston.
The Cardinal is removed from knowledge, removed from discussion, removed from any decisions about anything. His signature is forged and rubber stamped by the power structures put in place by the DNC.
It is as close to a government controlled and operated farcical and faux church as it gets. It is all controlled by the Democratic National Convention.
The fact that Cardinal O'Malley is advising the Pope on structure would scare the hair off of a charging rhinoserous.
It is a disaster.
Faithful priests are trying to find a refuge in religious orders and excardination.
If this is our future in the Holy See, we are in real trouble.
In any event, this article really has me going.
They are finally holding back on the money.
I hope it is not too late.
Dear Pope Francis
You want to silence So and So?
No soup for you.
You going to withhold Church teaching?
No soup for you.
Let teachers and priests teach dissent and rob our children of their religion?
No soup for you.
Demoralize our children in Catholic schools?
No soup for you.
Give honors to Herod and Herodias?
No soup for you.
We shall say all five mysteries of the Rosary for your spinal cord and intellect. That's 15 decades from the lunatics who count their prayers and offer them as a bouquet for those who can feel and understand the strength behind that revelation.
Good day to you Sir.
Love and Prayers, Mr and Mrs Self-Absorbed Sourpuss Promethean Neopelagian

Yes, sometimes the language of "ka-ching" is all they understand.
