They have won for while, but not ultimately. I am so insignificant and yet I shook Benedict XVI up, along with his hierarchy. It is not about me. It is just the truth about human sexuality. And no matter how hard they try to get rid of me, by systemically attempting to destroy my reputation to intentionally ruin my finances to take away everything I worked for ultimately meant to silence me for good – they still do not win in the very end. Because it will never hide the truth and that is that sexual orientation starts very early in life – either just before birth or very soon afterwards. Which is clear resonates in each and every one of them – otherwise I would be no threat to them. 6,474
However, I found love and as we know that without love – we are nothing more then a resounding gong…
LOVE
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1Corinthians 13:1-13
The scholar, theologian, Fr. Hans Kung is quite right that this child sexual abuse crisis of cover-ups this time in the Roman Catholic Church is time for reformation, the revitalizing Vatican II. This crisis has exposed the pervasive negligence and corruption at the very top of the Church. Fr. Kung once again defined the spirit of Vatican II, prying open the window that has been slammed shut. The revitalization of Vatican II would reform many areas, but most especially it would help focus on the importance of children, their safety and well being in every conceivable way.
Kids Are Being Hurt!!!
“Someday, maybe, there will exist a well-informed, well considered and yet fervent public conviction that the most deadly of all possible sins is the mutilation of a child’s spirit.” Erik Erikson
…whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea. Matthew 18:6
Protect children and the entire world will be safe.
Important note: No disrespect meant to Pope Benedict XVI or the hierarchy, the one and only concern is the safety and well-being of children.

Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.
Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.
Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad,
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle,
This'll help things turn out for the best.
Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.
Always look on the right side of life.
If life seems jolly-rotten,
There's something you've forgotten,
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing!
When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly, chumps,
That's the thing!
So, always look on the bright side of death,
Just before you draw your terminal breath,
Life's a counterfeit,
And when you look at it,
Life's a laugh, and death's the joke,
It's true!
You see, it's all a show,
Keep them laughing as you go,
Just remember the last laugh is on you!
(Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.)
