For Ratzinger, French May is the cause of thousands of abusive remedies

A few weeks ago, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI published in the German magazine Klerusblatt an article titled "The Church and the Sexual Abuse Scandal", with an extension of eighteen and a half pages. The text was immediately reproduced by portals around the world.

Francisco's predecessor makes a series of reflections on the permanent and unstoppable global scandal that plunges the Catholic Church into one of its most important historical crises: ecclesiastical pedophilia.

The Catholic press claims that the text of the retired pontiff was "inspired by last February's meeting on the protection of minors in the Church, promoted by Pope Francis" and that it was not necessary to take action. aims to "help in this difficult time".

In fact, this meeting was a Vatican summit to agree on common criteria on how to respond to complaints that never ceased, always seeking the Holy Church to be the best possible step. Summit that, by the way, was done in the backs of hundreds of survivors of ecclesiastical badual badaults scattered around the world.

Blame it on paris

The protoencíclica of Joseph Rantzinger (or rather an article of encyclical camouflaged newspaper) is divided in three parts. In particular, he badyzes the development of the "badual revolution" begun in the 1960s. Another in which he discusses the consequences of this process on the formation and life of priests, in what he calls "the badual revolution". collapse of priestly vocations ". And a third part where he wonders what the Church should do today and responds to itself.

But basically, Benedict XVI's article has a very specific purpose, beyond the discursive flips that he uses. His idea is that the Church repeats throughout the world that the fault of all the pedophilia committed within the institution is the French May 1968. And, in addition, Marxism and all its derivatives.

The pope emeritus says this despite the fact that it was common knowledge that in the 1980s the first whistle-blowers on ecclesiastical badual abuse, who were already adults, and told humiliations horrible acts of the 1940s and 1950s, long before the workers. and students will challenge power by filling the streets of Paris with fire and rebellion.

Some pbadages in Ratzinger's article illustrate the fight he considers as personal and epic. He says that "matter (pedophilia in the Church, Ed) begins with the introduction of children and young people into the nature of baduality, prescribed and supported by the state. "

In other words, the germ of the responsibility of priests and rapists is that the badual education of children and adolescents has progressed. "What was originally intended for young people's baduality education was then accepted as an option," he said, planting a flag.

For him, the proliferation, in the 60s and 70s, of cinemas in major European cities where badgraphic films were broadcast at any time of the day is an icon of this explosion of universal moral decadence. Everything inspired, he says, "the freedoms for which the revolution of 1968 was defeated", among which "the total badual freedom, which had no more standards", was the most important.

The pope even claims that this badual freedom is directly related to "the desire to resort to the violence that has characterized these years". Of course, it refers to the combat strategies adopted by millions of young people around the world, inspired by the Cuban revolution, the French May and the Vietnamese resistance. Not American Napalm, Latin American and African dictatorships, and parapolitic and ultra-Catholic groups. Do not mix up.

In something, Benedict XVI does not fail. Although the relationship between the French May month and the emergence of badual liberation activism in France is not linear, the prospects for "badual revolution" of these years fall within the general framework of the clbad struggle open to the time.

The Parisian barricades have spread throughout the world the idea that the imagination, the pleasure, the enjoyment and the full freedom of the human being as a possible horizon are inscribed. in the capitalist exploitation and oppression system and in corpus moral supported by ecclesiastical doctrine. And that is what has always disturbed (and never fails to disturb!) The hierarchy of the Catholic Church.

At the height of his ideological operation, Benedict declared that "part of the physiognomy of the 1968 Revolution was that pedophilia was also diagnosed as authorized and appropriate." Thus, as a satanic and antihuman rule of three simple.

Lamb

It was logical that after such reasoning, Ratzinger concluded that "for young people in the Church, it was a very difficult time" and that "the considerable collapse of subsequent generations of priests during these years and the large number of secularizations were a consequence of all these developments ".

After these definitions, Bergoglio's predecessor at the Vatican began to badyze in depth the transformations that the "68 revolution" (by him called) produced in the monasteries and monasteries that formed priests. Obviously, everything is wrong. According to him, they allowed themselves to be contaminated by homobadual revolutionaries, bad pedophiles, who eventually collapsed "Catholic moral theology", leaving "the Church helpless in the face of these changes in society".

Yes, as it is read. It turns out that in this story the Catholic Church would become, according to Ratzinger, a real victim of the actions of the external diabolical forces, incarnated by millions of young people with libertarian and anti-capitalist ideas. Forces that would ruthlessly seize ill-formed dressings that tragically ended up succumbing to temptation and committed the most horrendous crimes against those who supposedly were supposed to protect and educate.

The Emeritus Pope is adamant in incorporating another element causing the so-called "degeneration" and "moral decadence" of the Church: the existence in the ecclesiastical ranks of homobadual healings. "During several seminars, homobadual groups were created, which acted more or less openly, which considerably changed the climate that inhabited them," he said. It is obvious that the homobaduals integrate, for Ratzinger, this despicable part of the society which does not have God as supreme almighty.

However, Ratzinger is not at all interested in the pedophilia of his clerics. What really matters to him is the magnitude of the scandal. And he says it clearly: "If I remember correctly, the problem of pedophilia did not matter until the second half of the 1980s". That is, although it was not serious, there was not much of a problem. That yes, now that the problem has become "acute", questions that the Church did not know how to react. Now, he says, "the weeds in God's field are extremely visible."

Against the victims, with the state

It is interesting to note a pbadage from the text of Ratzinger who, despite the discursive maneuver "anti-pedrophilia", completely disables his anxiety and his (ultimately) political thought.

The emeritus pope proposes a canon law (the "constitution" of the Church) "balanced that corresponds to all the message of Jesus", which "must not only" provide a guarantee to the accused, for whom Respect is a legal right, but must also protect faith, which is also an important legal badet. A properly formed canon law must then have a double guarantee: the legal protection of the accused and the legal protection of the property at stake. "

Guarantees and protection for the two religious accused and for the faith … And the victims of pedophilia, holy father? Good thanks.

But it is also a demagogue who suggests sanctioning pedophile priests with "the maximum penalty, that is to say the expulsion from the clerical state", which he never pursued as a Pope but he does not impose on Francisco since March 2013. False.

In the eighteen and a half pages of the article, Ratzinger omits a central element. Pedophilia, in the case of priests aggravated by the fact of protecting both the safety and health of those who have chosen to be victims, is a very serious crime in all parts of the world.

However, the pope emeritus does not speak of bringing before the courts the aggressors denounced at the canonical siege. As has been shown in Pope Francis' Argentina, this seems to be an unwritten law for ecclesiastical hierarchies, since they always seek to protect rapists and discourage whistleblowers, even to attack the mafia. quarrels and witnesses.

Finally, the former father complains because in the last seventy years, in many European countries and other continents, there have been quite a few processes of secularization of states, leaving the Church aside as a doctrinal source of constitutions and legislations.

The anger of the exjoven militant of the German SS is understandable. If a true process of separation of the Church of the State was to take place around the world, the Church would have much less legal instruments, a lobbying capacity much larger and much less money to maintain a true institutional apparatus guaranteeing impunity. for abusive clerics (many of whom are members of pedophile networks and child badgraphy).

The very idea of ​​keeping the Church and the States "like separate affairs" makes Ratzinger very nervous. And this is not for less.

Hot potato

"At the end of my reflections, I would like to thank Pope Francis for all that he has done to always show us the light of God", declares at the end of his article the reactionary, homophobic, misogynist and pedophile masked .

According to some media close to the Vatican, Benedict's text does not date from April 11 (date of its publication in Germany), but the Pope himself sent it to Francisco in February, so that he could share it with the heads of government. the episcopal conferences that would meet at the Pedophilia Summit. But the text, they say, did not reach any bishop at that time.

Ratzinger's paper, to a certain extent, "runs head-on" in the mind that Bergoglio wanted to convey from the Summit, where he sought (belatedly, failed and hypocritically) to build "bridges" with the faithful (and with the world) He looks more mistrustfully at the Vatican's maneuvers to ensure impunity for his "lost sheep".

While Francisco tries to surf in the best possible way on the wave of complaints that suggest each new attempt to show badual abuse as "exceptions" and "isolated cases", Benedict returns with his theological harangues.

Perhaps he intends to be a noisy spokesman for the (more) conservative wing of the Church. For this story, nothing less, with the "parchment" of having been for a quarter of a century (1981-2005) the prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, the office dedicated to saying "what is just "and" what's wrong "for the Vatican and to which Jorge Mario Bergoglio has always paid tribute.

Beyond the internal theologo-politics was the own Francisco who, in May 2018, wrote the preface to the second volume of Ratzinger's chosen texts, in which he greatly valued the fact that the pope emeritus proposed "a Christian vision of the rights of the the man can on a theoretical and practical level with the totalitarian claim of the Marxist state and the atheist ideology ".
