Overcome indifference and win peace: 2016 Peace Day Message - Pope Francis -  Dec 15, 2015
..Kinds of indifference 
3. Clearly, indifference is not something new; every period of history has known people who close their hearts to the needs of others, who close their eyes to what is happening around them, who turn aside to avoid encountering other people's problems. But in our day, indifference has ceased to be a purely personal matter and has taken on broader dimensions, producing a certain “globalization of indifference”. 
The first kind of indifference in human society is indifference to God, which then leads to indifference to one’s neighbour and to the environment. This is one of the grave consequences of a false humanism and practical materialism allied to relativism and nihilism. We have come to to think that we are the source and creator of ourselves, our lives and society. We feel self-sufficient, prepared not only to find a substitute for God but to do completely without him. As a consequence, we feel that we owe nothing to anyone but ourselves, and we claim only rights…
In other cases, indifference shows itself in lack of concern for what is happening around us, especially if it does not touch us directly. Some people prefer not to ask questions or seek answers; they lead lives of comfort, deaf to the cry of those who suffer. Almost imperceptibly, we grow incapable of feeling compassion for others and for their problems; we have no interest in caring for them, as if their troubles were their own responsibility, and none of our business.[9] “When we are healthy and comfortable, we forget about others (something God the Father never does): we are unconcerned with their problems, their sufferings and the injustices they endure... Our heart grows cold. As long as I am relatively healthy and comfortable, I don’t think about those less well off.”[10]

Update: Nov. 15, 2015 

Conservative dissent is brewing inside the Vatican - September 7, 2015 
VATICAN CITY — On a sunny morning earlier this year, a camera crew entered a well-appointed apartment just outside the 9th-century gates of Vatican City. Pristinely dressed in the black robes and scarlet sash of the princes of the Roman Catholic Church, Wisconsin-born Cardinal Raymond Burke sat in his elaborately upholstered armchair and appeared to issue a warning to Pope Francis.
A staunch conservative and Vatican bureaucrat, Burke had been demoted by the pope a few months earlier, but it did not take the fight out of him. Francis had been backing a more inclusive era, giving space to progressive voices on divorced Catholics as well as gays and lesbians. In front of the camera, Burke said he would “resist” liberal changes — and seemed to caution Francis about the limits of his authority. “One must be very attentive regarding the power of the pope,” Burke told the French news crew…
[Burke states] “We have a serious issue right now, a very alarming situation where Catholic priests and bishops are saying and doing things that are against what the church teaches, talking about same-sex unions, about Communion for those who are living in adultery,” the official said. “And yet the pope does nothing to silence them. So the inference is that this is what the pope wants.”…

Part I

Cardinal Burke - Covert Antigay 
Vindictive Tactics 
Fr. Marty Kurylowicz - Synod 2015 - Pope Francis 

The disruptive situations leading up to and during the proceedings of the Synod 2015 (e.g. secret letter, brain tumor) supplies more than ample rationale that warranted Cardinal Burke being (1) striped of all Church authority, including the shield of bureaucratic anonymity - two weeks prior to the Synod 2014. Burke’s (2) immediate emotional outburst of anger against the Synod 2014 - midterm report - welcoming gay people and valuing gay committed relationships that he made public - exposed far more about Burke, the structure, organization and the years of the entrenched corruption in the curia than he may intended or realized. Burke’s antigay demagogic tyrannical public demonstrations - formed the one piece of thread that slowly began unraveling the layers of corruption of the curia.

The continuous unraveling of this one piece thread of Burke’s  has led to helping in clarifying the part that Pope Benedict XVI played and how he may have been exploited. The evidence revealed by the unraveling of this thread ultimately began exposing that Burke played the pivotal role in the corruption and violence of the curia and some members of the hierarchy. The compiling evidence has become substantial to the point that criminal charges should be filed against Burke and that he be required to submit to a thorough psychiatric evaluation. There is ample evidence that indicates he poses a serious threat to the safety and well-being of the lives of others.

After the Synod 2014 - Cardinal Burke became quite obsessively concerned about my writings on the Thalamus Center, mainly because I was exposing his behavior and his obsessive antigay demagogic statements. The overall revealed information from the Synod 2014  began slowly separating Benedict XVI from the more ruthless and deceitful - aggressive antigay tactics. They were labeled as “draconian” by Archbishop Weakland in 1986 (http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1986-09-28/news/8603120562_1_archbishop-weakland-seattle-archbishop-raymond-hunthausen-seattle-archdiocese). These likely unapproved antigay “draconian” tactics were used in destroying the lives of people in the Church, of anyone who dared to openly discussed the science on homosexuality. Including, any open discussions of scripture scholars challenges of the misinterpretations of scripture that erroneously condemn of homosexuality or provide scriptural interpretations that approved of committed homosexual committed relationships. 

The unraveling of this new information led to - Burke emerging, as a more severely demagogic leading character- void of intelligence, even anti-intellectual. 

Jesus Clears the Temple Courts

 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, 
Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. 
So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; 
he scattered the coins of the money changers and 
overturned their tables. To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! 
Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!”  
His disciples remembered that it is written: “
Zeal for your house will consume me.”
John 2:13-17


It started to make sense of the alarmingly ludicrous and negligent statement that was made to me, including where it originated from and by whom it was made - when after I had risked my life by “coming out” for the immediate need of the protection of children in March 1997 - I requested to study psychology at the University of Michigan, in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I was forcefully reprimanded for even making such - an inane request. I was then told in an air of affectation of superiority that the “Church doesn’t need psychologists, the Church needs liturgists and canon lawyers!!!” This statement - evoked in me a sense of heighten hysteria, I liken to Christ’s anger when he made a whip of cords and started kicking over money changers tables and started shouting get out of here - you have made my Father’s house of prayer -into a den of thieves. Because I was like a parent watching his very young child being slowly and continuously tortured and was completely unable to do anything to it and save his child. For a parent to be in this situation, it is a matter of being, beside oneself. However, then to be in a state of severe anguish - the parent goes to the one source (the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church) that all the world believes would swiftly help stop the torturing of his child - and instead is forcefully rebuked and humiliated for making such a frivolous and trivial request. What!?!?!? This parent who is already in a state of overwhelming state of severe anguish is then traumatized by being told his concerns for his child are of no importance - by the one place that is suppose to represent the LOVE of GOD. 

It helps to explain why I get enraged by the mere mentioned of names Burke, Chaput, Muller, Hurley and the like. It also explains why I can reach a state of calm when Pope Francis comes on the scene and those who follow his example, which I am glad to state, though few, are more then before and it seems to keep bringing out the best in a lot of people. This is a very good thing.

However, Burke’s public attempts to discredit my credentialing as a psychologist is the height entrenched depravity, because he is threaten beside himself, because his criminality is  rapidly being exposed. Because he is being exposed by this insignificant psychologist, who is also a gay Catholic priest. He better recheck my academic credentials again, however, he already knows what they are and that they are extensive. This among many other issues - is why he is shaking in his panties. Burke over played his hand.  And again he unknowingly revealed much more than he intended - in regards to how involved he is in the entrenched corruption and to the extent he has exploited Pope Benedict XVI. Because if my academic credentials were meaningless, like his, as Weakland stated, he would not be threatened by them and there would be no need to publicly discredit them. He is guilty of destroying too many lives and it appears to be all resurfacing, much like the Vatileaks. And I get hysterically enraged by his (1) condemnation of gay adult pornography and then (2) he uses it to play off societal ignorance and prejudices, as a means to discredit someone's credibility - it is the deepest level of the moral depravity of a psychopath. Because as demonstrated by his orchestration to silence and to block any open discussion on the topic of welcoming gay people and especially of valuing gay loving committed relationships, at the Synod 2015, - it is what allows the ignorance of the unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms to continue to destroy the lives of children causing the lifelong harmful effects that is the direct cause of: (a) gay adult pornography both of the (b) gay adult porn actors and the (c) viewers of the gay adult pornography. He is responsible for seriously harming - even destroying the human potential of these people from becoming all God meant them to be. These people have not done anything wrong - because as very young children - they were slowly and continuously tortured and no one was there to protect them. That is our JOB!!! St. Paul gives us the words on how to discern the worth and value of Burke's words. It appears that St. Paul has permanently silenced Burke. However, the words of St. Paul equally apply to us all.  

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, 
but do not have 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 do not have love, 
I am nothing. 

 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, 
but do not have love,
 I gain nothing.

 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  
It does not dishonor others, 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 completeness comes, what is in part 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 the ways of childhood behind me.

For now we see only a 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.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
HYSTERIA 

Burke’s hysterical antigay demagoguery is irrational and delusional it is not based in Truth or any Church Teachings and it is completely void of LOVE. It renders Burke and what he has to say - as nothing. 

I, too, am hysterical, however, my hysteria is the innate love of a parent, who is watching his or her children being slowly and continuously tortured and being completely helpless and unable to stop it. And the parent runs to the one source (Roman Catholic Church) that the parent surely believes will be able to intervene and save the children. However, the parent is aghast to discover that not only will they not help and then is rebuked for bringing the issue up, but finds out that this source is the source that is causing his or her children being tortured.

Monsignor Krzysztof Charamsa is courageous and a shining example of the complete reverse of this human tragedy Burke fosters and by the complicity of the members of the hierarchy who remain ignorant and silent. It is demonic suppression of child’s gay sexual orientation that deprives a child for life - from being loved and wanting to love and to live life to the fullest. This demonic suppression in adulthood is visibly seen throughout the majority of the member of the curia and the hierarchy. This was especially, visible in the inability even to openly discuss the topic of valuing gay committed loving relationship during the session of the Synod 2015 and allowing Burke and his minions to prevent those who wanted and were willing to discuss the issue.  Did Charamsa harm a soul? Did he hurt anyone? Did he orchestrate ways to prevent anyone from openly discussing any topic? The lightning speed at which he was dismissed from the Vatican in seconds after “coming out” is most revealing and distributing at the same time. For, one it advertises the fact that the entrenched corruption is still pretty thick, but is threatened. Muller still has must to be concern about, especially that he does not have the last word on gay loving committed relationships. The transparency that began with Pope Francis - allows for ever new and revealing insights into the curia and hierarchy, it revelations are quite tragic. However, at same time, though few, there are some really gifted, bright and compassionate members  among the hierarchy.

The way I was mistreated after risking my life by “coming out” for the immediate need for the protection of children - like a parent who is unable to stop the slow continuous torturing his very young child - as described above - goes to one source that is built as the sole protector of all children meet the complete opposite. I met Burke. This starts to make sense of what happened to the parents of the sexual abuse of children - who went to their bishops to report the abuse, instead of immediate help - they often received the same callous dismissive mistreatment and many were intimidated into silence. The similarity, in this form of mistreatment is remarkably so identical to what happened to me - it starts the wondering of the possibility do they generate from the same source - Burke himself. Is there in part a powerful connection between: (1) the bishops’ coverups of the child sexual abuse cases and (2) Burke’s continuous public hysterical antigay demagoguery, a means to increase societal prejudicial ignorance against homosexuals to use them as a scapegoat to coverup the bishops’ coverups of the child sexual abuse cases and then as a coverup for the person in the curia who is ultimately responsible. The Nazis had set an identical historical precedent of wrongly scapegoating homosexuals to use as a coverup for their irrational racial polices - that left unchallenged led to the death of 70 million people at the end of WWII.

“Who Am I To Judge?” - Pope Francis

And did Pope Francis statement regarding not judging gay priests - in July 2013 - stop this change of these coverups by validating the science and the scriptural authoritative data that gay priests are not responsible for the child sexual abuse - in fact the research indicates - as more gay priests enter the priesthood in the late 1970s and 1980s - the cases of child sexual abuse had significantly decreased. 

And is the connection, the same as above, regarding Burke’s fierce disruption of the Synod 2015 to block any open discussion on gay people, including attacking Pope Francis attempting to destroy the credibility of his papacy? 

And is the connection, also the same for me, before the Synod 2015, regarding Burke’s incessant attempts to destroy my credibility attacking my psychological credentials, because I have been psychologically unraveling the entrenched corruption of the curia that was leading directly to Burke? Was I getting to close to the truth or at least unearthed enough information for further investigations and deliberations to help design the necessary organizational safety mechanisms to prevent this entrenched corruption from happening again - by setting the safety and well-being as the children as top priority?

Is it possible that as a gay Catholic priest I was a responsible source that people found helpful and that I became a major threat who constantly challenged Burke’s hysterical antigay demagoguery public statements, since my psychological assessments writings - posted on the Thalamus Center, regarding the early childhood developmental years growing up gay or bisexual that are always backup with links to the related authoritative data: (1) that appeared, at least to Burke, to have played a significant part in the welcoming of gay people in the midterm report of the Synod 2014, (2) the possible cause for the practically overnight - near complete elimination of the hierarchy’s public antigay harsh, demeaning and condemning statements, (3) because I wrote about and posted documentation that identifies how severe the lifelong harmful effects are on children, by detailing how harmful the Nazi antigay demagoguery was to Pope Benedict XVI growing up in the Nazi Germany, and the harmful lifelong the the harmful effects, and (4) by doing this research - it started separating Benedict from the violence of the antigay demagoguery and “draconian” tactics used against gay people and gay priests - (5) began exposing Burke as the ultimate instigators and promotor of these tactics, as well as, issues of exploitation of Benedict, the similarities between Burke and Joseph McCarthy, including clerics should be removed from authority, etc.? 

However, due to the lack of transparency pre Synod 2014 and the shield of bureaucratic anonymity that Burke was hiding behind, this was a misjudgment I made about Benedict XVI that did not fit fully at the time that I made it. It clearly appears now that in many ways Benedict was being used as the scapegoat for Burke’s ruthless and deceitful tactics. Considering the disruption that Burke orchestrated to take place at the Synod 2015 - the absence of scripture scholars though quite surprising - would be consistent with the mentality of the curia and hierarchy that has developed over the past 3 decades. The blind leading the blind - as noted at the Synod 2015:

..In this synod..the members could have benefitted from scripture scholars giving context to different portions of the New Testament dealing with marriage -- particularly the words attributed to Jesus in the Gospel on Mark that are said to prohibit divorce. 
"It would be very interesting to have a couple of people who have read the original, whether it was Aramaic or Greek, talk about the words, talk about the context, so that we're all walking with a real understanding," …
"That would be very helpful, to have us go through a common input session and then wrestle with it in light of our individual realities where we're coming from,”…

From a cultural perspective - Roman Catholic priests constitute one of the most extremely homogeneous group, being all celibate men. It is not difficult to psychologically assess this group, on the issue of homosexuality, if you are a faithful and devout member of this group for the past 36 years and have thoroughly studied the issue of homosexuality from several perspectives. This is especially, true if you have multiple degrees in history, theology and psychology, plus postgraduate studies. 

It is noteworthy, why, Burke had singled me out publicly, at the time he did before the Synod 2015 begins and for the sole purpose of attacking my credentials as a master level psychologist. It is clearly, because my writings on the Thalamus Center appeared to have played an integral part in welcoming gay people and in valuing gay committed relationships.

April 2009 - SEXUAL ORIENTATION is less about sex and more about LOVE, being one with another human being. Attachment Theory - - LOVE & RELIGION --- Fr. Marty Kurylowicz 
Nothing in life is more precious than the intimate relationships we have with love ones. Healthy love relationships delight us give us confidence to take on challenges and support us in difficult times.

Welcoming homosexual persons
Homosexuals have gifts and qualities to offer to the Christian community...
...homosexual unions it has to be noted that there are cases in which mutual aid to the point of sacrifice constitutes a precious support in the life of the partners. Furthermore, the Church pays special attention to the children who live with couples of the same sex, emphasizing that the needs and rights of the little ones must always be given priority...

Burke doesn’t realize because he is not at all academic inclined that everything on the Thalamus Center is documented that it is researched that has been around beginning in 1957, with Evelyn Hooker’s international - ground breaking research proving that homosexuality is not a mental illness. There is nearly 60 years of research on homosexual sexual orientation. Anyone who is academic astute can find the same authoritative research data on their own.

Burke’s attacking my credentials as a master level psychologist - is a bold endorsement by him and his minions that I am an extraordinary effective and proficient psychologist. However, this is only one of the academic degrees, I hold, besides over 60 postgraduate course credit hours in psychology taken at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor , Michigan, including postgraduate course work, in communications studies, group dynamics and group leadership. This does not include - attendance at APA National Conventions, and enrollment in the Psychoanalytic Institute, course studies, lectures, and symposiums. I have always had a strong commitment to continuing education, as any professional, in my position would see it as an absolute necessity. This has always been a consistent part of my life, as well as, having an excellent credit rating that is all heavily documented in my past. I was in the process of obtaining a doctrinal degree in psychology, if it had not been abruptly ended by the onslaught of Burke’s antigay character assassination tactics to covertly silence and remove gay priests. (A) I have detailed these facts in my letter of appeal sent to Pope Francis date January 16, 2014. (B) These lethal antigay tactics to silence and remove anyone in the Church speaking about issues the authoritative data by attacking their reputation and credibility have now been identified as being orchestrated by Burke. They have been vividly demonstrated by the attacks made to disrupt the proceedings of Synod 2015 and by attacking the credibility of Pope Francis’s papacy. All designed to prevent any open discussion on the topic of welcoming gay people and valuing gay committed relationships that stems from an intense negative reactions to the Synod 2014 of the same.

The fact the Cardinal Burke had to earnestly singled me out some time before the Synod 2015, to publicly attack my reputation yet another time to attempt to destroy my credibility is significant, it is the equivalent to receiving an Academy Award. Approval by Burke in the real would be utter destruction of a person. Though, Burke’s disapproval can be harmful particularly among the less educated. Burke’s established modus operandi to remove his opposition is to publicly humiliate and destroy a person’s credibility.  Burke’s immediate prime targets is anyone who is supportive of gay people, or gay children. These are usually the intellectually bright and gifted people who have been effective in their support of gay people or notably are never condemning of gay people. Photo 

  • However, this year 2015, Burke lumped me together with his attacks to destroy Pope Francis’s credibility (brain tumor) and to disrupt the proceeding Synod 2015 in order to completely block any open discussion on gay people. Being lumped in together with Pope Francis by Burke is equivalent to receiving the Nobel Peace Prize.
  • It was also the year, 2015, in May that Ireland, predominately Catholic, voted for Gay Marriage and in June that the US Supreme Court legalized Gay Marriage.

  • Prior to the Synod 2014 I wrote a post on the Thalamus Center  before the opening session of the Synod 2014, dated September 16, 2014. In this post - I stressed the vital importance to viewing the concerns regarding family from the perspective of a child, by remembering back to their early childhood years of how they experienced the issues of family as a child and how those experiences effected their lives as adults. Though - I also noted in this post just how useless canon law is for not holding members of the hierarchy responsible and prosecuting them for their “crimes against humanity,” meaning the implicit genocide of defenseless children. 

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2014
Part 1 - Ghosts in the - Synod of Bishops on Family - October 2014 - Repress Unacknowledged Need for Empathy?
…With all due respect, canon law has proven to be absolutely useless for centuries - for holding responsible and prosecuting members of the hierarchy for - though not limited to - “crimes against humanity,” the implicit genocide of defenseless children we must leave them and the present Synod of Bishops in the hands of God. 

The every next day, September 17, 2014, it was rumored that there were plans to remove Burke from head of the Apostolic Signatura - noted as being the Vatican’s "Supreme Court” and from having any authority in the Catholic Church and to be placed a ceremonial role as head of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. However, this removal of Burke was a long time in the making. It most likely started even before Pope Francis was elected to the papacy. It seems quite probable that Burke may have been related to Pope Benedict XVI retiring.

  • I was targeted mainly because of the midterm report of the Synod 2014 it appeared that the (A) bishops reiterated the same need for the protection of gay children growing up, that was the reason why I came out 1997. After the Synod 2014 - I wrote a  second, post dated January 16, 2015, I was astounded by the midterm report of the Synod 2014 - the extraordinary historical courageous expression of concern for welcoming gay people, valuing their committed relationships, their families and their children. I, like the majority of the rest of the world could hardly believe the overall flowing empathic concern for gay people that all together in essence would definitely help to begin ending the implicit genocide of defenseless children who are growing up gay.

Part 2 - Ghosts in the - Synod of Bishops on Family - October 2014..
1997 - Protecting Gay Children - Fr. Kurylowicz
In March 1997, I came out for the (1) protection of gay children growing up from the (2) lifetime harmful effects caused by antigay social and religious norms based on science and since (3) suffered the consequences of severe covert life-threatening retaliation tactics from Vatican’s curia.

2014 Synod - Supporting Gay Children - Pope Francis 
The Synod 2014 midterm report, not only echoed the same science (1) need to protect gay children, as I did by “coming out” in 1997.  They even suggested several positive factors (2) to ameliorate the harsh impact antigay social and especially religious norms. It is interesting note - how the need to support gay children still evokes the same fierce negative reactions and attacks by the curia and hierarchy in 2014 as it did to me in 1997. Cardinal Burke led the way along with the others members of the hierarchy (3) attacking Pope Francis’s reputation, including his ability as a leader (http://www.religionnews.com/2014/10/31/cardinal-catholic-church-pope-francis-ship-without-rudder/ ---- & ---- http://ncronline.org/news/faith-parish/archbishop-chaput-blasts-vatican-debate-family-says-confusion-devil).

  • The stark contrast that followed was the fierce negative reaction by the majority of the members of the hierarchy to the Synod 2014 - midterm report - to even to the idea of welcoming of gay children, especially led by Burke himself - (B) together were the living proof of how the lifetime harmful effects are played out in adulthood. They are caused during early childhood by the influence of the unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms that was also the reason the I came out March 1997. In the same post on the Thalamus Center, January 16, 2015, I then wrote the following:

FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 2015
Part 2 - Ghosts in the - Synod of Bishops on Family - October 2014..
Curia & Hierarchy - Publicly Proving  
Lifetime Harmful Effects - Antigay Norms
Gay Children

These harsh retaliation tactics in 1997 and in 2014 are identical that are coming from within the Curia. They are the proof of the   lifetime harmful effects that is caused by antigay social and religious norms to gay children - being played out in adulthood by members of the curia and the hierarchy - who are instigating these harsh retaliation tactics - against anyone protecting or supporting gay children.

Roman Catholic hierarchy child sexual abuse “cover-ups” - to avoid public outrage & criminal charges falsely accused gay priests, WATERGATE? Fr. Marty Kurylowicz - December 17, 2009
  ...A major problem with the hierarchical structure of the Roman Catholic Church is that there are no “checks and balances.” When the necessary “checks and balances” are not in place to protect any organization, it leaves "not making waves" the rule that governs the hierarchy and opens the way to many devastating mistakes harmful to everyone and allows corruption to grow...

Experts to Bishops: Gay Priests Not the Problem 
 Nov 18, 2009


John Jay College of Criminal Justice - 5-Year Study by American Bishops – Roman Catholic Church Sex Abuse Cases - May 18, 2011
...Since the scandal broke, conservatives in the church have blamed gay priests for perpetrating the abuse...
The report notes that homosexual men began entering the seminaries “in noticeable numbers” from the late 1970s through the 1980s. By the time this cohort entered the priesthood, in the mid-1980s, the reports of sexual abuse of minors by priests began to drop and then to level off. If anything, the report says, the abuse decreased as more gay priests began serving the church…

John Jay Report Depicts Progress But Cannot Isolate Causes  - May 30, 2011
A report prepared by researchers from New York’s John Jay College of Criminal Justice on the abuse of children by Catholic priests in the United States between 1950 and 2000 offers a complex portrait of the “causes and context” behind decades of sexual abuse and the sometimes ineffective or even negligent response of U.S. bishops to the problem. Bishop Blase Cupich of Spokane, Wash., and Chair of the U.S. bishops’ Committee for the Protection of Children and Young People, said the exhaustive study, five years in the making, offers an explanation, but not an excuse for the abuse scandal that first engulfed the United States before surfacing throughout the global church…
Karen Terry, dean of research at John Jay and principal investigator for the study, told reporters at a press conference in Washington, D.C. on May 18: “There is no single cause of the sexual abuse crisis…
The study sweeps away the suspicion that an influx of homosexual men into the priesthood helped propel the crisis. The researchers pointed out that reports of abuse began an abrupt decline even as more gay men became priests… Photo

Facts about Homosexuality and Child Molestation - Gregory M. Herek, Ph.D.


Reflections on Pope Francis
Is he a reformer, a traditionalist, or both? 
Harvard Divinity Bulletin - Spring/Winter 2014 
...In response to the question of why he had not removed Monsignor Battista Ricca, whom he had appointed to a supervisory group at the Vatican Bank, he affirmed his nonjudgmental affirmation of the person and his willingness to keep him in the position—despite allegations that Monsignor Ricca had a homosexual relationship in his past...Thus, Pope Francis makes an important shift insofar as he sharply distinguishes between the criminal act of sexual abuse and homosexuality—and he did not withdraw his appointment of Monsignor Ricca. Will this distinction also lead him to move against bishops who cover up sexual abuse by transferring priests from one parish to another?

Cardinal Raymond Burke: ‘Feminized’ church and altar girls caused priest shortage - January 7, 2015 
...In the interview, Burke also blamed gay clergy for the church’s sexual abuse crisis, saying priests “who were feminized and confused about their own sexual identity” were the ones who molested children.
Researchers have disputed that claim, and experts note that the reported rise in the number of gay men entering the priesthood since the 1980s coincided with a sharp drop-off in abuse cases…

Pope Francis Delivers 'Gossiping Is Like Terrorism' Speech In Vatican City - September 4, 2015 Photo 
VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis on Friday likened a person who gossips to “a terrorist who throws a bomb,” telling his followers that sowing divisions is a sickness within the Catholic Church.
  Speaking during his homily at his Santa Marta residence, Francis criticized people who think gossip is harmless.
  “Gossiping is like terrorism because the person who gossips is like a terrorist who throws a bomb and runs away, destroying,” he said. “With their tongue they are destroying and not making peace.”…

Differences Between - Adult Homosexual & Heterosexual -  Pornography - July 7, 2015 
Such research, could begin to help us to understand the nature - in how and in what ways gay adult pornography differs from adult heterosexual pornography. Adult heterosexual sexual behavior that is not overt, but is benign, such as, public expressions of affection and love for another human being, a simple kiss, holding hands, embracing are ubiquitously displayed endlessly throughout every aspect of society, i.e. in love songs, operas, movies, advertisements, etc. Photo
However, for gay people, these same benign public expressions of affection and love are completely absent in society. Largely, because signs of affection, especially, between two gay males, evoke such hostile reactions from disgust to, as documented, to outright violence, to torture even to death by supposedly heterosexual male onlookers. How, why - on earth would simple expressions of love between two men - evoke in some other men, who claim to be straight - the absolute opposite expression of love - to become to mercilessly want to annihilate another human being(s)?
Burke’s Ruthless - Gay Sexual Repression
Genocide   
Instead, these same harmless benign public expressions of love by gay couples have more often invoked intense violence even grounds deserving of the death penalty. But what is most reprehensible is that such unconscionable inhuman, cold-blooded violence directed against gay human beings continues to be ruthlessly fueled by Cardinal Burke’s public statements, such as, referring to gay couples as murders, and most recently his orchestration of Italy's fifth annual National March for Life, on May 10, 2015. Christians are killed “in the name of God.”
Public Obliteration of Any Visual Representation of Gay Couples
This kind of obliteration of any visual public representation of the natural and normal expression of affection and love of gay couples is a severe form of collective homosexual sexual repression promoting violence against human beings, a genocide.
Who’s The Blame for Gay Adult Pornography? 
It not only (1) fuels violence against gay people, at the same time fuels the (2) viewing of gay adult pornography, including making it the only source that (3) validates the reality and existence of adult gay people, admittedly not the best source, nonetheless the only source. And who is the blame for this? Those who chose to (a) remain ignorant (vincible ignorance) and those who (b) enforced the ignorance of homosexual sexual orientation i.e. Cardinal Burke. Together, they form a group on the basis of their unquestionable willful ignorance of homosexual sexual orientation an extreme form of gay sexual repression - reinforced by their intense self-righteous attitude that perpetuates their collective blindness - causing the atrocities of  structural violence … Photo

Pope Francis sends letter praising gay children's book  - 28 August 2015
The hippos, kangaroos and penguins adorning the cover of Piccolo Uovo (Little Egg) give little hint of the political and religious storm the children’s book has caused. While following the adventures of an egg may seem harmless enough, its discovery of different family types – including same sex – has prompted a backlash by conservatives who accuse Italian author Francesca Pardi of promoting a pro-homosexuality gender theory.
In the book, the egg encounters a pair of gay penguins, lesbian rabbits successfully bringing up a family, as well as other family models, including a single parent hippo, a mixed race dog couple, and kangaroos that have adopted polar bear cubs…  Photo 
Now Pardi has found an unlikely supporter in Pope Francis, who through his staff has written to the author praising her work. “His holiness is grateful for the thoughtful gesture and for the feelings which it evoked, hoping for an always more fruitful activity in the service of young generations and the spread of genuine human and Christian values,” wrote Peter B Wells, a senior official at the Vatican secretariat of state…

Pope Francis arrives Wednesday for his weekly general audience in St. Peter’s Square at the Vatican. Francis has emphasized a message of love, compassion and justice, but U.S. bishops continue to be obsessed with sexual mattersDecember 4, 2015 



Catholic bishops find pornography more important than poverty - December 4, 2015 
Pope Francis’ emphasis has been on “a poor church for the poor” and the church as a “field hospital.” But the agenda of the American bishops at their annual meeting in Baltimore last month was business as usual, with a focus on abortion, same-sex marriage, religious liberty and, especially, pornography.
The bishops labored over a document highlighting the evils of pornography and went into great detail about erotic stimulation, orgasm and masturbation, reminding us, as some of them do on a regular basis, that masturbation is always gravely evil. Because the church has repeatedly condemned pornography, it is not clear why the bishops put so much effort into this policy paper at this time.
What is clear is that a majority of U.S. Catholic bishops continue to be obsessed with things sexual and continue to ignore the pope’s exhortation to instead focus on issues relating to charity and justice. Thomas Reese, reporting on the bishops’ meeting for National Catholic Reporter, wrote, “Francis wants a pastoral church, preaching a Gospel-based message of love, compassion and justice — not a nagging church wagging its finger at people.”
San Diego Bishop Robert McElroy, a native San Franciscan, has embraced the pope’s message and took his best shot at the bishops’ meeting to integrate Francis’ values into the deliberations on the bishops’ document regarding conscience and voting. Each election cycle, the bishops have issued a paper called “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship,” which hasn’t been revised since 2007, and was only lightly revised for this 2015 meeting. The document, offered as a guide for Catholic voters, focuses on abortion and euthanasia and repeatedly references same-sex marriage. McElroy eloquently argued that the document was basically flawed in that it does not account for the impact of Francis prioritizing Catholic social teaching…

On Gay Priests, Pope Francis Asks, ‘Who Am I to Judge?’- July 29, 2013
                 “If someone is gay and he searches for the Lord and has good will, who am I to judge?” Francis told reporters, speaking in Italian but using the English word “gay.”…  Photo 
“So much is written about the gay lobby. I have yet to find on a Vatican identity card the word ‘gay,’ ” Francis said, chuckling. “They say there are some gay people here. I think that when we encounter a gay person, we must make the distinction between the fact of a person being gay and the fact of a lobby, because lobbies are not good.”
An article in the Italian weekly L’Espresso this month alleged that one of the advisers that Francis had appointed to look into the Vatican Bank, Msgr. Battista Ricca, had been accused of having gay trysts when he was a Vatican diplomat in Uruguay. The pope told reporters that nothing in the documentation he had seen substantiated the reports.

He added that such a lobby would be an issue, but that he did not have anything against gay people and that their sins should be forgiven like those of all Catholics. Francis said that homosexuals should be treated with dignity, and that no one should be subjected to blackmail or pressure because of sexual orientation. Photo 
“The problem isn’t having this orientation. The problem is making a lobby,” he said...

Pope Francis was in his element when he opened the ‘Door of Charity’ for the poor - December 19, 2015 
ROME — Years from now, records will show that the special jubilee Year of Mercy decreed by Pope Francis began on Dec. 8, 2015, the feast of the Immaculate Conception. If you ask the pontiff himself, however, he’d probably tell you it really got underway on Friday.
That afternoon, Francis headed across town to visit a hostel for the homeless run by Caritas, the main diocesan charity in Rome, in order to open a “holy door of charity.” In a sense, it was the natural follow-up to what happened on Dec. 8, when Francis threw open an ornate door to St. Peter’s Basilica that’s otherwise bricked up when jubilees aren’t underway.
That gesture traditionally is how jubilee years commence, but Friday’s rite was a novelty — a pontiff opening a door not to a church, where spiritual indulgences are on offer, but rather a charity center, where the “grace” dispensed is more tangible and this-worldly…

Early Childhood Psychological Development 
Growing up Gay

  My name is Fr. Marty Kurylowicz, a Roman Catholic priest from the Diocese of Grand Rapids Michigan ordained June 16, 1979.
  In March 1997, after attending a National Symposium of the New Ways Ministry that was held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, I learned that children as young as 4 and 5 years of age know that they are different. This feeling "different" is only identified in their adult years as being gay. However, the harmful influence of antigay social and religious norms -- in particular, for Catholics, the Vatican’s unsubstantiated antigay teachings -- are severe and last throughout a child’s lifetime. The harmful effects are not isolated only to these children who grow up to be gay, but also affect their families, siblings, friends and anyone whom they might consider special in their lives. They are a prescribed societal sentence of implicit isolation, which place at risk of suicide so many innocent adolescents and young adults. They stifle an enormous amount of human potential in the world that otherwise could be put to use for finding cures for diseases, offering better ways of maintaining peace among people and improving the quality of life for everyone in the world…

Is Some Homophobia Self-phobia? - April 5, 2012
Anti-gay Bias Linked to Lack of Awareness of One's Sexual Orientation and Authoritarian Parenting, Study Shows  Photo
Homophobia is more pronounced in individuals with an unacknowledged attraction to the same sex and who grew up with authoritarian parents who forbade such desires, a series of psychology studies demonstrates.
The study is the first to document the role that both parenting and sexual orientation play in the formation of intense and visceral fear of homosexuals, including self-reported homophobic attitudes, discriminatory bias, implicit hostility towards gays, and endorsement of anti-gay policies. Conducted by a team from the University of Rochester, the University of Essex, England, and the University of California in Santa Barbara, the research will be published the April issue of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
"Individuals who identify as straight but in psychological tests show a strong attraction to the same sex may be threatened by gays and lesbians because homosexuals remind them of similar tendencies within themselves," explains Netta Weinstein, a lecturer at the University of Essex and the study's lead author.
"In many cases these are people who are at war with themselves and they are turning this internal conflict outward," adds co-author Richard Ryan, professor of psychology at the University of Rochester who helped direct the research…
The findings may help to explain the personal dynamics behind some bullying and hate crimes directed at gays and lesbians, the authors argue. Media coverage of gay-related hate crimes suggests that attackers often perceive some level of threat from homosexuals. People in denial about their sexual orientation may lash out because gay targets threaten and bring this internal conflict to the forefront, the authors write.
The research also sheds light on high profile cases in which anti-gay public figures are caught engaging in same-sex sexual acts. The authors write that this dynamic of inner conflict may be reflected in such examples as Ted Haggard, the evangelical preacher who opposed gay marriage but was exposed in a gay sex scandal in 2006, and Glenn Murphy, Jr., former chairman of the Young Republican National Federation and vocal opponent of gay marriage, who was accused of sexually assaulting a 22-year-old man in 2007.
"We laugh at or make fun of such blatant hypocrisy, but in a real way, these people may often themselves be victims of repression and experience exaggerated feelings of threat," says Ryan. "Homophobia is not a laughing matter. It can sometimes have tragic consequences," Ryan says, pointing to cases such as the 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard or the 2011 shooting of Larry King… Photo
Across all the studies, participants with supportive and accepting parents were more in touch with their implicit sexual orientation, while participants from authoritarian homes revealed the most discrepancy between explicit and implicit attraction.
"In a predominately heterosexual society, 'know thyself' can be a challenge for many gay individuals. But in controlling and homophobic homes, embracing a minority sexual orientation can be terrifying," explains Weinstein. These individuals risk losing the love and approval of their parents if they admit to same sex attractions, so many people deny or repress that part of themselves, she said…

Projection - Repressed Homosexual Feelings 
When an internal impulse provokes too much anxiety, the ego may reduce that anxiety by attributing the unwanted impulse to an external object, usually another person. This is the defense mechanism of projection, which can be defined as seeing in others unacceptable feelings or tendencies that actually reside in one’s own unconscious (Freud, 1915/1957b). For example, a man may consistently interpret the actions of older women as attempted seductions. Consciously, the thought of sexual intercourse with older women may be intensely repugnant to him, but buried in his unconscious is a strong erotic attraction to these women. In this example, the young man deludes himself into believing that he has no sexual feelings for older women. Although this projection erases most of his anxiety and guilt, it permits him to maintain a sexual interest in women who remind him of his mother. 
An extreme type of projection is paranoia, a mental disorder characterized by powerful delusions of jealousy and persecution. Paranoia is not an inevitable out- come of projection but simply a severe variety of it. According to Freud (1922/1955), a crucial distinction between projection and paranoia is that paranoia is always characterized by repressed homosexual feelings toward the persecutor. Freud believed that the persecutor is inevitably a former friend of the same sex, although sometimes people may transfer their delusions onto a person of the opposite sex. When homosexual impulses become too powerful, persecuted paranoiacs defend themselves by reversing these feelings and then projecting them onto their original object. For men, the transformation proceeds as follows. Instead of saying, “I love him,” the paranoid person says, “I hate him.” Because this also produces too much anxiety, he says, “He hates me.” At this point, the person has disclaimed all responsibility and can say, “I like him fine, but he’s got it in for me.” The central mechanism in all paranoia is projection with accompanying delusions of jealousy and persecution…

“SOMETIMES WE ARE PREJUDICED AGAINST OURSELVES”: 
INTERNALIZED AND EXTERNAL HOMOPHOBIA IN THE TREATMENT OF AN ADOLESCENT BOY - MARY T. BRADY, Ph.D. - 2010
Contemporary Psychoanalysis, Vol. 47, No. 4. ISSN 0010-7530



























Internalized Homophobia 
…Moss (2002)… He describes internalized homophobia in men as a movement from a personal subjective experience of homosexual impulses, which, if threatening, is defended against by a movement towards identifying with “masculine” group hatred towards homosexuality. He notes that the conventional usage of the term “internalized homophobia” “aims to describe and to partially account for a sexual identity characterized by persistent, structured negative feelings, particularly shame and self-loathing. Implicit . . . is the idea that such feelings represent the dynamic outcome of an internalization of the dominant culture’s attitude toward homosexuality”…
…Moss’s reminder that the concept of internalized homophobia relates not only to relatively accessible dimensions of experience but also to profoundly unconscious dynamics essential. He points to the complex manner in which the internalization of social, cultural, and familial rejections combines with intrapsychic issues: 
Internalized homophobia is a symptomatic structure. Conceptually it is best thought of as a multilevel phenomenon. At a minimum it refers both to the widespread internalization of the dominant culture’s interdiction against homosexuality and to a particular individual’s defensive and possibly idiosyncratic employment of the interdiction. (Moss, 2002, p. 49) 
That is, the internalization of prejudice meets the complexities of psychic reality and developmental processes, intermingling into complex states of shame and superego judgment. Harris (1996) pithily expresses it as follows: “Homophobia, like many aspects of ideology, is both in us and we are in it” (p. 363)…  Photo - Definition

Vatican Says Rumors About Pope's Health Are Attempt To Undermine Him - October 22, 2015 
After repeatedly denying reports that Pope Francis has a benign brain tumor Wednesday, the Vatican is going a step further, calling the rumor "false information" that's meant to destabilize the papacy. The doctor named in the reports also says they're untrue…

From Rome, NPR'S Sylvia Poggioli reports:
"The suggestion that the tumor report was part of a plot against Pope Francis was put forth by the official Vatican daily L'Osservatore Romano. It wrote, "the timing of the claim reveals there was an intent to manipulate and cause a dust storm of confusion."
"Cardinal Walter Kasper said it was part of an effort to undermine the bishops' assembly…

Pope Francis addresses Synod of Bishops at conclusion - October 24, 2015
…[The Synod]…was about bearing witness to everyone that, for the Church, the Gospel continues to be a vital source of eternal newness, against all those who would “indoctrinate” it in dead stones to be hurled at others.
It was also about laying closed hearts, which bare the closed hearts which frequently hide even behind the Church’s teachings or good intentions, in order to sit in the chair of Moses and judge, sometimes with superiority and superficiality, difficult cases and wounded families.
It was about making clear that the Church is a Church of the poor in spirit and of sinners seeking forgiveness, not simply of the righteous and the holy, but rather of those who are righteous and holy precisely when they feel themselves poor sinners.
It was about trying to open up broader horizons, rising above conspiracy theories and blinkered viewpoints, so as to defend and spread the freedom of the children of God, and to transmit the beauty of Christian Newness, at times encrusted in a language which is archaic or simply incomprehensible.
In the course of this Synod, the different opinions which were freely expressed – and at times, unfortunately, not in entirely well-meaning ways – certainly led to a rich and lively dialogue; they offered a vivid image of a Church which does not simply “rubberstamp”, but draws from the sources of her faith living waters to refresh parched hearts…

Gay Adult Pornography - Roman Catholic Hierarchy 
Reaction Formation - Voilent Homophobia - Nazi Racial Purity -  &  Globalization 

Roman Curia “The Machine of The Slime”
Continues 

In 1997, I came out for the protection of children, as young as 4 and 5 years of age, from the lifetime harmful effects - directly caused by the influence of the unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms. Now, 18 years later, these lifetime harmful effects have been clearly demonstrated by the majority of the members of the Roman Catholic curia and hierarchy, by their reaction formation treatment dehumanizing gay people, especially gay loving committed relationships. Instead of educating - they are enabling public hysteria to increase the dehumanization of gay people. It is evil allowed, by ignorance and indifference - to be disguised as God’s love that history has proven by the Nazi Racial Policy (https://ke.army.mil/bordeninstitute/published_volumes/ethicsVol2/Ethics-ch-14.pdf) 1933 - 1945 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_Nazi_Germany) and by today’s uncontrolled corporate globalization greed that ends up destroying the lives of millions upon millions of human beings. Photo  - Tommaso dei Cavalieri

The only thing that is immoral or sinful about gay adult pornography is that it is the direct product of the unconscionable immoral Vatican’s unsubstantiated teachings on homosexuality ( http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/belief/2014/jan/10/uganda-homophobic-googling-gay-porn ). This includes, the ignorance and indifference that allows them to continue to exist destroying the lives of millions of children, globally, as most blatantly demonstrated by the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy, e.g. Vatileaks, Roman Curia “The Machine of The Slime” (PBS - http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/religion/secrets-of-the-vatican/transcript-58/). They are the child victims of the Vatican’s unsubstantiated teachings on homosexuality and the adult perpetrators of gay adult pornography, by their collective reaction formation expressed through their obsessive antigay crusade and negative reactions to “Welcoming gay people” Synod 2014, denying their homosexuals desires. 

Naturam expellas furca, tamen usque recurret.
(Though you drive Nature out with a pitchfork, she will still find her way back.) 

The past 30 years - of the fierce fortified preservation of the Vatican’s unsubstantiated teachings on homosexuality is an obsessive and unconscious reenactment of Pope Benedict’s early childhood years - traumatized by the Nazis dehumanizing homosexuality publicly to create an effective scapegoat - to silence and remove Catholic clergy openly opposing the Nazi radical policy. The unopposed - Nazi racial policy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_policy_of_Nazi_Germany) led to the destruction of 70 million people (http://www.npr.org/2011/03/29/134956180/criminals-see-their-victims-as-less-than-human). 

Benedict’s unconscious reenactments of the Nazis public dehumanization of homosexuals - it has been used as a scapegoat for bishops child sexual abuse coverups. It has also been exploited, as a political wedge - to usher people into elected office that over the past 30 years has led to the ravages of globalization - valuing profits over human beings and the destruction of climate change.  

The obsessive public demonizing gay adult pornography by the majority of the Roman Catholic members of the curia and hierarchy - is again - an identical repeat of the Nazis public dehumanization homosexuals to maintain an effective scapegoat to keep the public distracted from their racial polices - as it is to continue the escalation of corporate greed of globalization.

As Catholic priests - we do not enable public hysteria against gay people, including gay adult pornography - we educate them, by first educating ourselves. So, let us “get a grip” and start doing our job!!! 

Gay adult pornography is an internal representation of the unnatural traumatic forced repression of one’s homosexual sexual orientation during early childhood years growing up. Gay adult pornography - would cease to exist - if and only when a child’s natural human and divine expression need for love and to love is not impeded - by man made teachings disguised as being God’s will.

Other than the unanimous agreement of the participants of the Synod of 2015 - to immediately renounce the Vatican’s unsubstantiated teachings on homosexuality will be a global confirmation of the unconscionable immorality that remains dominate among the majority of the hierarchical members of the Roman Catholic Church. This is the “moral edifice of the church is likely to fall like a house of cards (http://americamagazine.org/pope-interview).”

Pope Benedict XVI

Catholic resistance to Nazi Germany
  After constant confrontations, by late 1935, Bishop August von Galen of Munich was urging a joint pastoral letter protesting an "underground war" against the church. Under Reinhard Heydrich and Heinrich Himmler, the Security Police and the SD were responsible for suppressing internal and external enemies of the Nazi state. Among those enemies were "political churches" - such as Lutheran and Catholic clergy who opposed the Hitler regime. Such dissidents were arrested and sent to concentration camps. In the 1936 campaign against the monasteries and convents, the authorities charged 276 members of religious orders with the offence of “homosexuality”…
  By early 1937, the church hierarchy in Germany, which had initially attempted to co-operate with the new government, had become highly disillusioned…

Homosexuals and Nazi Germany
  ...Trumped up charges of homosexual behaviour could also be used against someone who had upset the Nazi Party hierarchy...
  ...On October 1st 1936 the Nazi Party introduced a new department – the Reich Central Office for Combatting Homosexuality and Abortion. The Gestapo was given the task of hunting out homosexuals – a task it carried out with vigour - and an assumption was made that homosexual behaviour equalled dissidence and opposition to the Reich. Some senior Nazi leaders also believed that homosexuality was contagious and could undermine the Third Reich…

“A Still and Quiet Conscience: The Archbishop Who Challenged a Pope, a President and a Church
by John McCoy - book -  May 10, 2015
  …Cardinal Josef Ratzinger rebukes Hunthausen for allowing the gay Catholic group Dignity to use St. James Cathedral. The Seattle archbishop replies by evoking John 8:11 in which the Pharisees bring to Jesus a woman caught in adultery and demand that she be stoned to death. Fireworks follow:
  “Hunthausen was recounting the Gospel story when Ratzinger, his voice full of wrath, interrupted him. ‘Are you presuming to lecture me?'” he demanded.
  “The archbishop paused, caught his breath and quietly continued. In regard to Dignity, he explained, ‘I tried to do what I thought Jesus would do. Jesus didn’t wait until people changed before he talked to them. He began a dialogue and I think that’s what they church ought to do with the gay community.’
  “Infuriated, Ratzinger silenced him again. ‘Don’t preach to me,'” he said…

Late-onset of post- traumatic reactions in Holocaust survivors at advanced age * Haim Dasberg ** 
  Y. Sadavoy (1997), in his paper on elderly survivors, speaks of the traumatically-induced "false self' which is an "armour to meet the world," providing the conditions are not too unfavorable. The traumatic inner "true self' remains hidden, waiting to be released by later triggers. From this psychoanalytic perspective, survivors with hidden post-traumatic problems essentially suffer from identity disorders, diagnosable post-factum, after the late-onset has occurred. They act ''as if' it were not true. This "dormant, sub-clinical coverage" (Krystal, 1981), held up by "splitting" of the personality has to come to an end, at a time when the natural urge for reminiscing and reintegration of old memories take over in old age or after reaching mid-Iife. Until then, the "dormant" problems continue to be "walled off' (H. Krystal's term). As was said, the avoidance, detachment, constriction and blotting out of awareness, and blocking off during the subclinical latency period, fulfill Criterion C (of the DSM definition of PTSD, above)…

The Compulsion to Repeat the Trauma 
Re-enactment, Revictimization, and Masochism 
Bessel A. van der Kolk, MD
During the formative years of contemporary psychiatry much attention was paid to the continuing role of past traumatic experiences on the current lives of people. Charcot, Janet, and Freud all noted that fragmented memories of traumatic events dominated the mental life of many of their patient…Janet thought that traumatic memories of traumatic events persist as unassimilated fixed ideas that act as foci for the development of alternate states of consciousness, including dissociative phenomena, such as fugue states, amnesias, and chronic states of helplessness and depression. Unbidden memories of the trauma may return as physical sensations, horrific images or nightmares, behavioral reenactments, or a combination of these. Janet showed how traumatized individuals become fixated on the trauma: difficulties in assimilating subsequent experiences as well. It is "as if their personality development has stopped at a certain point and cannot expand anymore by the addition or assimilation of new elements." Freud independently came to similar conclusions. Initially, he thought all hysterical symptoms were caused by childhood sexual "seduction" of which unconscious memories were activated, when during adolescence, a person was exposed to situations reminiscent of the original trauma. The trauma permanently disturbed the capacity to deal with other challenges, and the victim who did not integrate the trauma was doomed to "repeat the repressed material as a contemporary experience in instead or . . . remembering it as something belonging to the past.” In this article, I will show how the trauma is repeated on behavioral, emotional, physiologic, and neuroendocrinologic levels, whose confluence explains the diversity of repetition phenomena. 
Many traumatized people expose themselves, seemingly compulsively, to situations reminiscent of the original trauma. These behavioral reenactments are rarely consciously understood to be related to earlier life experiences…

Update: October 19,  2015

In 1968, triggered by the student riots, at the University of Tübingen, Pope Benedict XVI, experienced, what appears to have been - a delay onset of a post-traumatic reaction related back to his early childhood years growing up in Nazi Germany. From historical documentation, interviews, the high visibility as head to the CDF and election to the papacy, Benedict’s post-traumatic reaction was a flashback to his early childhood years growing up in Nazi Germany. The lasting and observable aftereffects, besides the drastic change in his personality, in particular, was his obsessive-compulsive mistreatment of homosexuals. Photo

The Nazis were far more publicly dehumanizing of the Jewish people, however, Benedict did not become obsessive-compulsive in mistreating Jewish people. Why homosexuals? 

What is of crucial importance here is to note - that Benedict’s obsessive-compulsive mistreatment of homosexuals - was and has remained the unconscious reenactments of the perspective of a traumatized - 6 year old child - that has been frozen in time, of the Nazis pervasive public dehumanization tactics made against homosexuals lasting for several years. Benedict - a child victim of the most toxic authoritarian dehumanizing antigay social environment, as an adult through the process of unconscious reenactments - he shifts from being the child victim to being the adult antigay aggressor, all from the perspective of a traumatized - 6 year old child. 

This is not unlike the same reaction observed by the African hierarchy who remain intensely antigay, raised in similar lethal antigay social environments, as observed by their reactions made at the follow up - Synod of 2015.

Denying One’s Desires Tied to Homophobia - April 9, 2012
   New studies suggest those who express virulent dislike of homosexuals may have an unacknowledged attraction to the same sex. Researchers also discovered homophobia is more pronounced in individuals who grew up with authoritarian parents who forbade such desires.
  The study is the first to document the role that both parenting and sexual orientation play in the formation of intense and visceral fear of homosexuals, including self-reported homophobic attitudes, discriminatory bias, implicit hostility towards gays, and endorsement of anti-gay policies…
   “In many cases these are people who are at war with themselves and they are turning this internal conflict outward,” …

Parental Autonomy Support and Discrepancies Between Implicit and Explicit Sexual Identities: Dynamics of Self-Acceptance and Defense 
Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 2012

Projection
According to Freud (1922/1955), a crucial distinction between projection and paranoia is that paranoia is always characterized by repressed homosexual feelings toward the persecutor. Freud believed that the persecutor is inevitably a former friend of the same sex,..When homosexual impulses become too powerful, persecuted paranoiacs defend themselves by reversing these feelings and then projecting them onto their original object. For men, the transformation proceeds as follows. Instead of saying, “I love him,” the paranoid person says, “I hate him.” Because this also produces too much anxiety, he says, “He hates me.” At this point, the person has disclaimed all responsibility and can say, “I like him fine, but he’s got it in for me.” The central mechanism in all paranoia is projection with accompanying delusions of jealousy and persecution…

Reaction Formation - Homophobic men

Concept. The concept of reaction formation involves converting a socially unacceptable impulse into its opposite. To apply this notion to esteem protection, one may propose the following: People respond to the implication that they have some unacceptable trait by behaving in a way that would show them to have the opposite trait. Insinuations of hostility or intolerance might, for example, be countered with exaggerated efforts to prove oneself a peace-loving or tolerant person.
Evidence. 
A comparable finding with male subjects was recently reported by Adams, Wright, and Lohr (1996). They assessed homophobia and then exposed participants to videotapes depicting homosexual intercourse. Homophobic men reported low levels of sexual arousal, but physiological measures indicated higher levels of sexual response than were found among other participants. Thus, again, the subjective response reported by these participants was the opposite of what their bodies actually indicated. This finding also fits the view that homophobia may itself be a reaction formation against homosexual tendencies, insofar as the men who were most aroused by homosexuality were the ones who expressed the most negative attitudes toward it… Photo

Standard 
Intense Negative Reactions

Benedict’s intense negative reactions towards homosexuals that followed after his post-traumatic reaction in 1968, clearly defines an existing pattern that has been observed by the midterm report of the Synod 2014 “Welcoming gay people” and the US Supreme Court 2015 legalization of Gay Marriage. First, there is an immediate intense negative reaction. Second, there is a complete absence of any validating authoritative evidence to support the intensity of the negative reaction, except for demeaning remarks made against gay people. Third, there is a firm commitment to continue fighting against gay marriage or accepting gay people. It is this antigay obsession that is exhaustive and tends to be debilitating in the person’s reaching his or her fullest potential in life. The third, point is also how antigay violence is increased and perpetuated from generation to generation. 

In Benedict’s case we can see the lifelong harmful effects caused to, a brilliant theologian, a beloved friend, professor, colleague, and the like. What would his life had been like had he never experienced the dehumanizing effects growing up in Nazi Germany? How would the world be different - not only minus his obsessive antigay crusade, but how much more would he have been able to have added - unimpeded by the lifelong post-traumatic effects of the past? Now, try to imagine the difference in the world - over the same period of time 1927 - 2015 - of the same type of restoration to 90% of the world population human potential had the unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms never  existed.

In brief, the willful suppression of a child’s homosexual sexual orientation is a traumatic experience for the child that is repeated throughout the child’s early childhood years growing up. The memory of the traumatic events experienced in early childhood, because the child’s stage of development - are usually deeply repressed, however, the overwhelming unpleasant emotions connected to the events remains alive and disruptive throughout the child’s lifetime. In adulthood, any similar event or situation, to the past repressed traumatic experience, will active the intensity of the overwhelming unpleasant emotions in the present, but not the event or situation that caused it. The adult experiences feeling intensely overwhelmed, and immediately wants to escape the feeling. This may help to explain - the instant intense negative reaction that people express at the idea of welcoming gay people or gay marriage that is followed by their immediate refusal to discuss or provide any validating authoritative data to support their position on the topic. This is, again, because just the idea of gay loving relationships - activates the intensity of the overwhelming traumatic feelings connected to long forgotten early childhood memories that willfully forbade a child’s homosexual or bisexual expression of love. 

Surprise

What makes the experience traumatic for the child - is that a child has no adult concept of the meaning of homosexuality. The child is taken by surprise by the rejection of an adult parent, which to a child feels like abandonment, and to a child this is equivalent to an unending death - all for something the child neither understands, nor meant to cause any harm. 

It appears that the more severe the traumatic suppression of a child’s homosexual sexual orientation is - during early childhood, the severer the antigay reaction is - as an adult that is projected outward. 

Benedict was victimized by the severest and most twisted form early childhood suppression of a child’s sexual orientation that became frozen time. It began when the Nazis deliberately used propaganda to increased the social prejudices against homosexuals. They did this in order to use the “idea” of homosexuality as an effective scapegoat to coverup their removal of the Catholic clergy who openly opposed the Nazi racial policy by falsely accusing them of being homosexuals. The Nazis by publicly denouncing homosexuals, as they did to dehumanize the Jewish people - they were able to distract public attention a way from their - coverups of their implementation of their racial policy. 

Nazis EXPLOITING  - German Homophobia 1933-1941

What is crucial to note here is that the Nazi dehumanization of homosexuals was NOT motivated by the underlying premise of homophobia - it was motivated by the greed for power and dominance. The Nazis significantly exploited the use of societal prejudices against homosexuality to escalate their irrational racial policy - that ended in the deaths of 70 million people. Photo

…we have recent attempts to reduce the disaster of nazism to Hitler’s alleged homosexuality, or supposed syphilis. In each case, one or two bits of dubious hearsay evidence are surrounded by much inference, speculation and guesswork to come up with a case for world history shaped fatefully and decisively by Hitler’s ‘dark secret’. Reduced to absurdity, a rent-boy in Munich or a prostitute in Vienna thereby carries ultimate responsibility for the evils of nazism… Ian Kershaw

 Nazis EXPLOITING   -  USA “Religious Freedom”?!? 1981-2015

Therefore, what Benedict has been promoting as “Religious Freedom” is from his traumatized perspective of a 6 year old child, who as an adult is unconsciously reenacting what he remembers believing that it was the homosexuals that threaten the very existence of the Catholic Church and not the Nazis.
So, what in fact, the US Catholic Bishops have relentlessly been fighting for is that they be permitted in the USA to continue the same Nazi dehumanization tactics against gay people that are directly related to the Nazi racial policy (https://ke.army.mil/bordeninstitute/published_volumes/ethicsVol2/Ethics-ch-14.pdf). What the US Catholic Bishops have been obsessively fighting for is the US Constitutional protection by law - to treat gay people as if they are “subhumans” not deserving of the same rights and privileges shared by the rest of humanity (http://www.npr.org/2011/03/29/134956180/criminals-see-their-victims-as-less-than-human ). But now these Nazi dehumanization tactics are under the disguise of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church. This is what is so surrealistic - that the Nazi dehumanization tactics are the very antithesis of the Catholic Church, though they are being openly expressed as the will of God. Photo

“Cold-blooded Murderers” - Curia & Hierarchy
US “Religious Freedom”?!?

I am a recent victim, like so many before me over the past 30 years, of this most deadly US sanctioned Nazi dehumanization of tactics being orchestrated by the entrenched corruption of Roman Curia - to remove me from the priesthood, because I came out for the protection of children, in March 1997 - regarding the lifelong harmful effects caused by the influence of unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms. These lifelong harmful effects have been most publicly made evident by the instance negative reactions to the Synod 2014 “Welcoming gay people” and the US Supreme Court 2015 legalization of Gay Marriage. However, these lifelong harmful effects have never been more clearly exposed than - by the majority of the members of the Roman Catholic curia and hierarchy, though definitely not all. I am to be removed without any just reparation made - for the past 18 years retaliation tactics, especially for the irreparable damage done to my reputation by Bishop Walter Hurley and the Roman Curia, and all that entails - all because I came out to protect children. My “coming out” for the protection of children - was considered “unprecedented” by the US Catholic Bishop Conference, in 1997. The entrenched corruption of the Roman Curia and among the US Catholic Bishops has been notorious for destroying reputations, mirroring the same tactics used by the Nazis regarding homosexuals (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/religion/secrets-of-the-vatican/transcript-58/). Pope Francis has on a number of occasions - identified the overwhelming existence of this tactics - the ruthless destruction people’s reputations belonging to the curia and he has strongly denounced it calling them “Cold-blooded Murderers” (http://en.radiovaticana.va/news/2014/12/22/). Pope Francis as, recently as, September 4, 2015, made another empathic public announcement condemning it stating 'Gossiping Is Like Terrorism’ “a sickness within the Catholic Church.” Photo

Pope Francis Delivers 'Gossiping Is Like Terrorism' Speech In Vatican City - September 4, 2015
  VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis on Friday likened a person who gossips to “a terrorist who throws a bomb,” telling his followers that sowing divisions is a sickness within the Catholic Church.
  Speaking during his homily at his Santa Marta residence, Francis criticized people who think gossip is harmless.
  “Gossiping is like terrorism because the person who gossips is like a terrorist who throws a bomb and runs away, destroying,” he said. “With their tongue they are destroying and not making peace.”…

Globalization EXPLOITING  -  Benedict’s Antigay Crusade
In Benedict’s case, though not hardly limited to, we can see the lifetime harmful psychological fallout of the Nazis obsessive dehumanization of homosexuals, caused to children during their early childhood years can be far more deadly and lasting endlessly through generations, than the atrocities committed by Hitler and the Nazis. The severity of Benedict’s obsessive-compulsive antigay crusade was motivated by homophobia that was generated by the most inhuman traumatizing authoritarian suppression of a child’s sexual orientation. The severity of his homophobia was frozen in time at the age of six year old of a terrorized child, who mostly likely was strenuously attempting to save the Church.

Nazis Scapegoating Homosexual 
political wedge
Roman Curia and US Congress

Nazis scapegoating homosexuals to disguise their racial polices, continues for - the Bishops coverups child sexual abuse cases and in the USA, as a strong political wedge to usher certain individuals into elected office. Over time, the past 30 years, it accounts for the similarities in the entrenched corruption in the US Congress and the Roman Curia. Both groups have continued as the Nazis did - to keep demonizing gay people, directly against authoritative data to the contrary - to increase the fear and ignorance that already exists in society, to be able to use gay people as an effective scapegoat - to continue to be used to coverup, to disguise their covert corruption. Of course this is not true of every member of the US Congress or the Roman curia. In fact, we have witnessed some extraordinary courageous stands for gay people, some members have been relentless in this endeavor, this most especially has been true in the USA.

Scapegoating gay people is a very profitable business. There is a lot of big money - depending on the viability of a healthy antigay crusade - to coverup a multitude of crimes against humanity that are connected to the globalization that values profits over people. The Vatican’s unsubstantiated teachings on homosexuality have and continue to played a leading role in supporting this type of global structural violence.

The Vatican’s unsubstantiated teachings on homosexuality played a major part in the globalization of the world - where profits are more important than people, including increasing the harmful effects of climate change.

Roman Curia EXPLOITING  -  Benedict’s Antigay Crusade


However, Benedict’s homophobia has been and continues to be exploited by many of his staff members. Many of the disturbing immature antics that took place for decades are appearing to be happening in full, but obvious, force during this Synod 2015. This is quite evident by the “secret” letter of the 13 cardinals (http://www.religionnews.com/2015/10/16/conservatives-high-stakes-vatican-summit-overplaying-hand/). What the hell is that all about?!? Burke’s trademark is secrecy. It is this type of secrecy that was the cause of all the problems that started for me 2 months after I come out in March 1997.  

These inane antics were clearly orchestrated prior to the resuming of the Synod that started last year. 

I am personally aware of the tone of the re-emergence these deceptive antics that began with the letter that I received dated and mailed on the September 17, 2015 regarding my status in the priesthood, which I will be writing about later. It too referred to wanting to set up a time to meet with me in secrecy! Clearly, indicating that in some significant way I was perceived as a threat to this Synod 2015. Because I was coming too close to the fact that Benedict was a victim of being exploited by members of the curia and helping to unravel the corruption of the curia? This also includes, their enormous jubilation regarding the gay adult pornography, and the hysteria it would generate in spreading gossip. But fools that they are - it is all backfiring on them, because the gay adult pornography - is shedding light on the massive reaction formation that is pervasive - existing among the Catholic celibate clergy regarding issues of repression of homosexual feelings, as well as, exposing who is involved in the corruption. However, this extreme lack of awareness of the repression of homosexual feelings among the participants of at the Synod 2015, is a lethal liability to 90 % of the world population. It must be identified. Photo

Roman curia - - & - US Catholic Bishops
“Death Marches”

Trying to remove me from the priesthood by the entrenched corruption in the Roman curia and the US Catholic Bishops for the past 30 years, at this stage in history, with allied forces from within and abroad led by President Obama and Pope Francis, regarding - the Synod 2014 and the US Supreme Court 2015 supportive of gay loving committed relationships and legalizing gay marriage - is unbelievably so identical to the Nazis overwhelming fears about the exposure of their crimes against humanity that they frantically raced to destroy all the evidence of their atrocities. The Nazis, in 1944, initiated the “death marches” of the Holocaust - to destroy the remaining prisoners of their concentration camps. Photo

The hysterical fear of exposure of the Roman curia and the US Catholic Bishops of the inevitable possibility of their losing the USA protective shield of torturing gay people, deceptively disguised as “Religious Freedom” it is imperative for them that I be destroyed. This is because the history of their inhuman treatment of me stretches as far back as 18 years ago, March 1997 - when I came out for the protection of children. Including the fact that I have been writing about it for the past 8 years that began with - 

December 26, 2008 - AUSCHWITZ - CHRISTMAS 2008 - A flashback far more severe than in - BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN – Fr. Marty Kurylowicz
Reposting
Their relentless attacks over the past 18 years have severely impacted my physical health leaving me penniless and as in 1997, 2006, 2012, 2013 and now - demanding me to meet in Grand Rapids -  from where I live - a round trip of 300 miles. They are well aware that it is impossible for me to meet in Grand Rapids and then to penalize me for not meeting. It is the equivalent to the Nazis  - “death marches.” And to think that it was - gay adult pornography - that is responsible for exposing them both in the USA and in the Roman curia, is truly astonishing. Their attempt to remove me was so obvious — planned two days before Pope Francis was to leave for Cuba and the USA and it was supposed to be over and done with before Pope Francis returned. It was as obvious as noted by their attempts to disrupt the process of the of the Synod 2015. e.g. “secret letter” to Pope Francis (http://www.religionnews.com/2015/10/16/conservatives-high-stakes-vatican-summit-overplaying-hand/).


Secret Letter?!? —- Brain Tumor?!?
Removal?!? 

Are conservatives at high-stakes Vatican summit overplaying their hand? - October 16, 2015 
VATICAN CITY (RNS) Ever since a Vatican summit last year raised the possibility of making the church more open to those whose family lives may not mirror the Catholic ideal, conservative foes have been in uproar, waging an intense campaign to block any reforms from being adopted…
With all these twists and turns the saga was quickly becoming as absurd as it was convoluted, and it might have been seen as just another chapter in the legacy of Vatican intrigue that stretches from the era of the Borgia popes to the novels of Dan Brown — except that the plot seemed so backhanded it made the synod look faithless as well as foolish.
“The general opinion I detected among the bishops was a sense of disgust,” Bishop Marcello Semeraro, an Italian who is on the final drafting committee along with Wuerl, told Vatican Insider.
Another synod delegate, Archbishop Mark Coleridge of Australia, called the leaked letter affair a “typically Roman melodrama” that was “not untinged with psychodrama.”
The problem, Coleridge wrote on his blog, is that episodes like this tend to “aggravate the sense that the Synod is not much more than a political caucus, with ideological riptides swirling around us and the odd stinger drifting by.”
Already, he said, the deliberations are struggling to battle against “a fear that can become a kind of paranoia.”
“My reading of all this is that the ploy has backfired,” wrote veteran Vaticanista John Thavis. “I suspect most synod participants are not amused at this rather obvious attempt to pre-emptively discredit the synod’s outcome.”…

Another blatant attempt to manipulate the outcome of the Synod 2015 - glaring by the timing of the false press leak that Pope Francis is suffering from having a brain tumor - insinuating that he is mentally unbalanced. 

Vatican Says Rumors About Pope's Health Are Attempt To Undermine Him - October 22, 2015
After repeatedly denying reports that Pope Francis has a benign brain tumor Wednesday, the Vatican is going a step further, calling the rumor "false information" that's meant to destabilize the papacy. The doctor named in the reports also says they're untrue…
Read more:

These are all the same lethal antics employed by the curia members that they have been using for the past several decades - intimidation strategies. All identified as - “the sleaze and corruption that surrounded” Benedict XVI - in the 2012 Vatileaks. Benedict was “horrified” then and ordered a thorough secret investigation of the - Roman Curia - later referred to as “The Machine of The Slime.” The full report was called the “red dossier,” which he received on December 17th, 2012 and two months later Benedict resigned on February 28, 2013. 

…It was to be an X-ray inquiry into the Roman Curia, more detailed than ever before...People who testified before these cardinals talked about what we call in Italian “the machine of the slime”— in other words, dossiers of documents created to destroy reputations all based on lies… It cemented relationships by brotherhood or blackmail. This is the map that was drawn, the picture that emerged from the dossier that the cardinals handed in to Benedict… 

These tactics used against Pope Francis leaking false news media  rumors of his having a brain tumor at the end of the Synod 2015 are all because of his respect and support for gay people. They also - help to explain the same kind of tactics used against me trying to remove me from the priesthood - also without making the necessary justified reparation - comparable to any civil law suit for the irreparable damage done to my reputation by directives members of the curia, now at the age 65 years old. Photo

It was a foolish attempt to discredit Pope Francis - because he talks with everyone and consults on a regular basis with an entourage of experts and colleagues. But I am a poor simple priest who has been sacrificing my life for children the past 18 years, not unlike many other priests, I do not have the wherewithal to sustain myself worn out by the barrage over the years of such brutality by members of the Roman Curia. I am sure that an investigation will find that the same people who were behind falsely leaking that Pope Francis has a brain tumor - are the same people responsible trying to remove me from the priesthood. I hope that my situation will very soon be rectified - including that the necessary justified reparation be made (http://fathermartykurylowicz.blogspot.com/2014/01/appeal-letter-sent-to-pope-francis-fr.html). Remove me and keep Burke, Chaput, Gadecki, and the like, now there’s a real supportive pastoral team for gay people. Burke’s conspicuous absence before, during, and after the Synod 2015 - is remindful of Raymond Burr, who played the part of Lars Thorwald, who murders his wife, in Alfred Hitchcock - 1954 movie “Rear Window.” In the movie, it is Thorwald’s absence during the scene when a neighbor’s dog is found dead - that convinces Jimmy Steward that Thorwald is guilty of killing his wife. 

…Soon after, a neighbor's dog is found dead, its neck broken. When the owner sees the lifeless body of her dog she screams to the courtyard: "You don't know the meaning of the word 'neighbors'. Neighbors like each other, speak to each other, care if anybody lives or dies! But none of you do!" and cries in grief. During the woman's hysterics, the neighbors all rush to their windows to see what has happened, except for Thorwald, whose cigar can be seen glowing as he sits in his dark apartment… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rear_Window 

Their unreasonable contention without offering validating dialogue of authoritative data, so similar to a minority in the US Congress - cannot be tolerated in the Synod 2015 (http://fathermartykurylowicz.blogspot.com/2015/07/part-2-obedient-to-whom-1997-2015.html). However, I believe the unity with the whole Catholic Church - they will be canceled out. Review the history of the rise of the Nazi Party to power in Germany - the tactics are the same, especially the Nazi use of propaganda ( http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/the-fuehrer-myth-how-hitler-won-over-the-german-people-a-531909.html ).

This includes not tolerating - those (likely the same) connected to the curia’s plot to remove me from the priesthood while Pope Francis was away in Cuba and the USA - sending me a letter dated and mailed on September 17, 2015, two days before he left - are identical to the antigay tactics that they used against Archbishop Hunthausen in the 1980s, because of his outreach to gay people. Hunthausen’s case has been empirically researched - identifying these tactics used by the curial staff of the CDF (http://dspace.library.uu.nl/bitstream/handle/1874/601/full.pdf?sequence=4). 

The tactics that they have been using against me for the past 18 years to remove me from the priesthood - begins with  - Simplification / Complexification, and the Perspective Shift. This amounts to their deliberate public statements simplifying the complexities of my situation that by keeping secret (1) their use of coercion tactics - to intimidate me into leaving the priesthood privately, because (2) I came out, as a gay Catholic priest, for the protection of children March 1997. Instead, publicly (3) shifting the focus completely off their ongoing cruelty to me and (4) all the while - claiming that I am being obstinate refusing to return to my diocese. Photo

In addition, they continued (5) to spread gossip against me - destroying my credibility, my reputation and means to support myself. These are tactics known as Shifting Ground (Gamesmanship). These tactics of “Gamesmanship involves fostering a state of upset or unrest in the other party as a means of reducing their resistance to yielding. Surprise is an important element in the strategy – surprise which results in the other party becoming flustered or feeling off balance or uncertain how to proceed (http://dspace.library.uu.nl/bitstream/handle/1874/601/full.pdf?sequence=4).” The letter to remove me from the priesthood - sent to me on September 17, 2015 two days before Pope Francis was to leave for Cuba and the USA - was deliberately meant to be upsetting and disturbing to me - so much so that it would have prevented me from writing anything that would be of any influence before the beginning of the Synod 2015 - because it appeared that my writings on the Thalamus Center - had an influence on the Synod 2014 - welcoming gay people.

But fools that they are - what I write about and post is all academic - meaning anyone who is academic would have the ability to have acquired the same information on their own. If I had any influence on anyone - it would have only been to alert them to the academic research that has been available for the past 6 decades. Jesuits are known to be far superior academics than I ever hope to be. If I hadn’t tripped over my dog and twisted my back - experiencing excruciating pain for several days before - ending up in St. Joseph’s emergency unit in Ann Arbor - their Nazi “death march” plan would have fully succeeded as they had planned. 

Together, the members of the Roman curia and the US Catholic Bishops, have both harmed and destroyed the lives of an incalculable people - far more than the atrocities committed by the Nazis - in the form of “structural violence” that is far slower than “direct violence" though just as deadly.

Death marches (Holocaust)
…Towards the end of World War II in 1944, Allied forces advanced from the west, while forces of the Soviet Union advanced from the east. Trapped in the middle, the SS – not wanting the world to know about the Holocaust – decided to abandon the Nazi concentration camps, moving or destroying evidence of the atrocities they had committed there. Thousands of prisoners were killed in the camps before the marches commenced. These executions were deemed crimes against humanity during the Nuremberg trials.
Although most of the prisoners were already very weak or ill after enduring the routine violence, overwork, and starvation of concentration camp or prison camp life, they were marched for miles in the snow to railway stations, then transported for days at a time without food, water, or shelter in freight carriages originally designed for cattle. On arrival at their destination, they were then forced to march again to new camps. Prisoners who were unable to keep up due to fatigue or illness were usually executed by gunshot

Who is on Whose PayRolls???

But it is time to bring these psychopathic antics to an end, because they are a lethal liability the human population that we are to be serving. They clearly are becoming annoying and angering a number of participants. Cardinal Burke should be removed from the priesthood, including his accomplices. They have been instrumental in allowing Benedict’s obsessive-compulsive antigay crusade to be exploited in the USA, as political wedge that has led us to the dehumanizing effects of globalization and the disregard for the devastation of climate change.. The continuation of their obsessive antigay crusade, constantly raises the question - in addition, to their regular salaries, whose pay rolls are they on?

It is indeed imperative for members of the Synod 2015 - to - follow the money by studying the demographics in the USA to discover the added reasoning regarding the - greatest resistance to welcoming gay people, in particular - this most recent attempt to remove me from the priesthood. “Walkout”!!! First, even the idea of walkouts, is real sign of immaturity, unconscionable for a member of the hierarchy, second - it is a familiar tactic - of a small group in the US Congress. Unbelievable that they would be so stupid to even suggest such a blatant acknowledgment pointing to the existence of the  entrenched corruption. Following the money was the key to resolving the Watergate coverup, in the 1970s in the USA.
Recruitment

The post-traumatic reaction that Benedict experienced in 1968 would seem to have seriously effected his recruitment of members of the curia and hierarchy. It would appear he was only interested in choosing members who would be ruthless in removing homosexuals from the Church, because from his perspective of a 6 year old traumatized child, it was the homosexuals who were destroying the Church, instead of the reality that it was Hitler and the Nazis. In his recruitment he would not have been interested in academic achievements or educational backgrounds, only the ability to obey his directives. And more than likely he would not have been interested in anyone who would openly challenge or question his directives. 

“A Still and Quiet Conscience: The Archbishop Who Challenged a Pope, a President and a Church
by John McCoy - book -  May 10, 2015
…Cardinal Josef Ratzinger rebukes Hunthausen for allowing the gay Catholic group Dignity to use St. James Cathedral. The Seattle archbishop replies by evoking John 8:11 in which the Pharisees bring to Jesus a woman caught in adultery and demand that she be stoned to death. Fireworks follow:
“Hunthausen was recounting the Gospel story when Ratzinger, his voice full of wrath, interrupted him. ‘Are you presuming to lecture me?'” he demanded.
“The archbishop paused, caught his breath and quietly continued. In regard to Dignity, he explained, ‘I tried to do what I thought Jesus would do. Jesus didn’t wait until people changed before he talked to them. He began a dialogue and I think that’s what they church ought to do with the gay community.’
“Infuriated, Ratzinger silenced him again. ‘Don’t preach to me,'” he said…

Low Intellectual and Maturity Levels

This could explain why some of Benedict’s closest friends didn’t work for him or he did not choose them. Over 30 years, this would explain the (1) low intellectual level among the members of the curia and hierarchy, as well as the (2) low level of maturity and childish behavior, e.g. gossiping, name calling, spying, squealing about each others sexual secrets, etc (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/religion/secrets-of-the-vatican/transcript-58/). Of course this not true of all members, as we have been finding out by the public intelligent and compassionate statements made by some of the participants of the synod. However, given Benedict’s international renowned reputation as a theologian and author, including the prestige position he holds in the Vatican - his recruitment would not allure the most reputable applicants, i.e. career seekers, opportunists. 

Psychopaths

Hitler’s idea of promoting human violence under the disguise of national salvation attracted psychopaths from all levels of society (http://www.mconway.net/page1/page4/files/Uniqueness%20of%20Nazism.pdf). The same was true for Benedict - with the ruthless severity of his the witch hunt for homosexuals it would have attacked his share of psychopaths, e.g. the Wisconsin boys, - Cardinal Burke and McCarthyism (http://fathermartykurylowicz.blogspot.com/2015/07/part-2-obedient-to-whom-1997-2015.html). Weakland, also from Wisconsin, in 1986 raised a red flag along with other prelates, regarding the unwarranted investigation of Archbishop Hunthausen, identifying the staff members of the CDF - the Draconian measures used, by the psychopaths - “amateurs-turned-theologians” the second-rate and repressive mind “riding on the waves of fears” taking over (http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1986-09-28/news/8603120562_1_archbishop-weakland-seattle-archbishop-raymond-hunthausen-seattle-archdiocese).

It appears very clearly that Benedict was exploited by some of the members he chose. It is clear that the psychopath behavior of the curia is not associated to him. He was operating out the traumatized perception of a six year old, who was not psychopathic, but who was terrorized. It appears he trusted a number psychopaths he chose. Because Benedict at times, often appeared genuinely surprised by startling news reports related to dubious activities inside the Vatican that were attributed to him. It seemed that he was upset by the Dino Boffo case and intervened to put a stop to the deception.

Update: October 20, 2015


Part 3b- - Protecting Children - Pope Francis - “Sharply Distinguishes” - Homosexuality - From - Pedophilia - Making Bishops Accountable Child Sexual Abuse Coverups | - | OBEDIENT to WHOM??? - 1997-2015 Protecting Gay Children - Fr Marty Kurylowicz


Atrocities of Roman Curia and Hierarchy
Homophobia

Returning to the question stated above - how did this form of homophobia become so extensive throughout majority of the members of the Roman Curia and hierarchy for the past 30 years? It became the most destructive form of structural violence to all of humanity in modern times - far surpassing the atrocities of the direct violence - committed by Hitler and his Nazi Regime.   

Who Told You - You Were Bad?

Pope Benedict XVI in 1968 appeared to have a delayed post traumatic reaction - triggered by the student riots, expressing a violent and blatant disrespect for the clergy and the bible - bringing back long forgotten terrorizing emotional memories from his early childhood related to the endless events of Hitler’s Nazi regime anti-Catholic siege - to silence and remove to concentration camps - all clergy who spoke against the Nazi ideology(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_of_Adolf_Hitler). The Nazis did this by increasing elements the ignorance and fear to the preexisting homophobia in German society, at that time. From the start of Hitler’s rise to power in 1933, when Benedict was 6 years old - the Nazis began their endless attacks against the resistance of the Catholic Church - who openly opposed the Nazi racial policy (http://alphahistory.com/nazigermany/religion-in-nazi-germany/). The Nazis in retaliation - made highly public false accusations that the Catholic priests were homosexuals. “Joseph Goebbels, the Minister for Propaganda, led the Nazi persecution of the Catholic clergy and wrote that there was ‘an insoluble opposition between the Christian and a heroic-German world view (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Catholicism).’” They did this to avoid public outrage for removing them to the concentration camps (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_Nazi_Germany), which they did this to silence them and to intimidate others from speaking against their racial policies. To the public - it look like homosexuals were destroying the Catholic Church. This very public dehumanizing propaganda denouncing homosexuals last for several years. Photo 

…In the 1936 campaign against the monasteries and convents, the authorities charged 276 members of religious orders with the offence of “homosexuality". 1935-6 was the height of the "immorality" trials against priests, monks, lay-brothers and nuns…Kershaw wrote that the Vatican was anxious to reach agreement with the new government, despite "continuing molestation of Catholic clergy, and other outrages committed by Nazi radicals against the Church and its organisations… 

…By the latter part of the decade of the thirties church officials were well aware that the ultimate aim of Hitler and other Nazis was the total elimination of Catholicism and of the Christian religion. Since the overwhelming majority of Germans were either Catholic or Protestant this goal had to be a long-term rather than a short-term Nazi objective…

Note: that this is the same tactic that has been used endlessly by members of the curia and hierarchy - for the past 30 years, “…‘the machine of the slime’ …words, dossiers of documents created to destroy reputations all based on lies…(http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/religion/secrets-of-the-vatican/transcript-58/).” 

It was at this time, in 1968, that's has been documented - when Benedict seemly switched from being liberal to being conservative. It was the time he switched (1) from a few years earlier - being a major participant, along with his close friend and colleague Hans Kung, in the reforms of Vatican II - expounding the vital importance for greater openness on the part of a pope to hear from everyone in the Church before making a major decision - (2) to the time at Tubingen University - during the students Marxists revolts in 1968 (http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-21425105) that he stated was a time of terror “…where discussion must stop because it is turning into a lie and resistance must begin in order to maintain freedom (https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/ej-dionne-pope-benedicts-legacy-is-one-of-paradox/2013/02/11/441aa800-745a-11e2-aa12-e6cf1d31106b_story.html).” 

Post-traumatic Reaction 1968 

It was a drastic change in personality - more likely indicating the symptoms of a post-traumatic reaction that remained - significantly causing for the person - problematic situations - socially, at work and in relationships (http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/post-traumatic-stress-disorder/basics/symptoms/con-20022540). Among the many possible symptoms of a post-traumatic reaction are those of (a) avoidance, (b) negative changes in thinking and mood, and (c) changes in emotional reactions. There is a marked avoidance - in thinking or talking, including avoiding people (http://209.157.64.201/focus/f-news/1394392/posts) who are reminders of the traumatic events. The overall attitude about life and one’s self - is negative and hopeless (fatalistic - https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/blog/smaller-purer-church) about the future. Emotional reactions are uncharacteristically marked by angry outbursts (http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattlepolitics/2015/04/20/kneecapping-a-catholic-archbishop-the-hunthausen-saga-remembered/) and aggressive behavior, obsessively on guard for recurrent danger of past events, overwhelmed by guilt (http://209.157.64.201/focus/f-news/1394392/posts) and easily startled. There are any number of possible triggers in the present - may cause a flashback to memories the traumatic events of the past. It is like a war veteran, who suffers from symptoms of PTSD, when he hears a car backfire or door slam shut - he is likely to relive the traumatizing experiences of combat. 

Brokeback Mountain - 2005
Ennis's Flashback

An example of this is most vividly portrayed in the movie "Brokeback Mountain." It takes place when Ennis and Jack are together again for the first time in 4 years, after first meeting on Brokeback Mountain. They are sitting around a campfire in the evening and Ennis is relaxing reclining back starring up at the stars. Jack looks over at Ennis and says to him, "Is there anything interesting up there in heaven?" Ennis replies with a very pleasant smile on his face "I was just sending up a prayer of thanks." This is a very tender moment in the film, which Jack is in a way proposing to Ennis. Jack tells Ennis that "... it could be like this always, just like this, always." Ennis's face loses its smile becoming strained as he turns his face away from Jack, looks down at the ground. Ennis then begins to soberly tell Jack about this vivid flashback he is having to his early childhood days growing up. Ennis describes for Jack this disturbing scene from his past how his father took him and his brother along this pathway in the country to show them the kind of violence that happens to adult men who lived together. The traumatic psychological effects from this event with his father appear to have remained vivid throughout Ennis's adult life. It is shown in Ennis's inability to form and be in a relationship, any kind of relationship, but particularly the one with Jack, to go with Jack, and build a life together. "Early Childhood Growing Up" - Read more Photo

Nazis EXPLOITING - German Homophobia 1933-1941

The evidence regarding Pope Benedict XVI indicates that as a 6 year old child - he was traumatized by the Nazis increased dehumanizing anti-homosexual propaganda - by building on the preexisting ignorance and fear of the societal prejudices against homosexuals. The Nazis used it to publicly accuse the Catholic clergy on trumped up charges of being homosexuals. They did this to coverup and avoid public outrage for removing the opposition of the Catholic clergy who were condemning Hitler’s racial policy. It was also a fierce means of intimidation to assure the silence of any further open criticism of their efforts to reach the racial purity of the Aryan Race as the "Master Race.” (There are many similarities that are found in Benedict’s efforts to silence and remove priests, sisters who openly discussed the emerging science on homosexuality, for the past 30 years.)

It is these traumatizing events from Benedict’s early childhood, beginning at 6 years of age that have been frozen in time, and that he has unconsciously been reenacting for the last 30 years (http://fathermartykurylowicz.blogspot.com/2015/01/cold-blooded-murderers-part-2-ghosts-in.html). From the traumatized perspective of a 6 year old child, he believed that it truly were homosexuals who were destroying Church. He did not see that it was the Nazis who were intent on destroying the Catholic Church to prevent any opposition to their implementation of their racial policy. The Nazis publicly continued to falsely demonized homosexuals, in order to use them as the scapegoats, to coverup the escalation of their crimes against humanity of their racial policies, to create the power of being the “Master Race.”

Surrealistic

This is where the surrealistic atmosphere of the curia and hierarchy generates from - because it is the dictates of a victim of a severe form of Nazi child abuse, Benedict, that is solely related to the subject of homosexuality - who as an adult, has unconsciously been reenacting the events of a traumatized child of 6 years of age growing up in Nazi Germany. 

The decades of this long lasting obsessiveness of these childhood reenactments strongly indicate that they have been - frozen in time. They have been governing the Catholic Church, for the past 30 years. 

It is amazing from this perspective of a traumatized 6 year old child, we can identify all the elements of that period of history of the Nazi Regime being unconsciously reenacted for the past 30 years: (1) the continuation of the Nazis unsubstantiated demonization of homosexuals 1981-2015, incorporated into the Vatican’s teachings on homosexuality, forcefully reiterated by Cardinals Burke (http://fathermartykurylowicz.blogspot.com/2015/07/part-2-obedient-to-whom-1997-2015.html), Bertone, Muller, Chaput, Gadecki, Cordileone, the majority of the US Catholic Bishops and the members of the Roman curia, though not all, as found in the Synods 2014 and 2015, (2) continually, against authoritative data, have been building on societal unfounded prejudices of homosexuals - scapegoating gay priests to coverup the bishops coverups of the child sexual abuse cases, (3) using the same Nazi tactics to suppress the emerging science of homosexuals, including pastorally meeting the needs of gay people e.g. Hunthausen, for the past 3 decades, by silencing, removing, theologians, priests, sisters, using means of intimidation, coercion, character assassinations to destroy credibility and reputations, (4) endlessly demanding “Religious Freedom” - to continue the Nazis subhuman treatment of homosexuals under the disguise of the Catholic Church, - the curia and hierarchy have been fighting to deny gay people the rights and privileges share by the rest of humanity, as the Nazis did, in particular to the Jews, Gypsies, handicapped people, ethnic Poles, Russians were all treated as subhumans, (5) recreating the same atmosphere described as  "Working Towards the Führer” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Kershaw#cite_note-57).

FOR YOUR OWN GOOD
Hidden cruelty in child-rearing and the roots of violence (1980) - By Alice Miller
...In the earliest stage of life, it is possible for a child to forget about the extreme acts of cruelty he or she has endured and to idealize their perpetrator. But the nature of the subsequent enactment reveals that the whole history of early persecution was stored up somewhere; the drama now unfolds in front of the spectators with an amazing resemblance to the original situation but under another guise: in the reenactment, the child who was once persecuted now becomes the persecutor...

Realistic 
Monsignor Krzysztof Charamsa 

The contrast between surrealistic and realistic forms Roman Catholic priesthood could not have been more vividly portrayed than by Monsignor Charamsa, a theologian and an official of the CDF, who made a courageous act of self-sacrifice at great personal lost - by “coming out” on the eve of the Synod 2015 - to publicly challenged hierarchical inhumane treatment of gay people. Mgr. Charasma is a visible example of a priest who responsibly faced his own past inconsistencies regarding his rejecting his sexual orientation. In his interview, he is responsibly, as a priest, educating people on the topic of homosexuality. 

Charamsa admitted that he had chosen his moment to come out: on the eve of the synod. “I wish to tell the Synod that homosexual love is a family love, that it needs the family. Every person, including gays, lesbians, transsexuals, carry in their heart a desire for love and family (life). Every person has a right to love and that love must be protected by society, and by laws.” 
“Above all – he stated - it must be cared for by the Church” since “Christianity is the religion of love: that is what characterizes Jesus whom we bring to the world”. He emphasized that “a lesbian or homosexual couple should be able to say to their church, we love according to our nature and this good of our love we offer to others because it is a public, not private fact, and it is not an exasperated search for pleasure.” 
…He had always known that he was gay, he said, but “in the beginning, I did not accept it” and so he “zealously” sought “to subject” himself to the teaching of the Church and the life it imposed on him; that homosexuality does not exist, and if it does then it is to be destroyed.” 
…“He explained that he has passed from “rejection” of his own homosexuality to being “happy” that he is gay, “by studying, praying and reflecting on myself” and by “dialogue with God, and confronting with theology, philosophy and science.” He now has “a companion that helped me to transform my last fears into the force of love.” 
He recognizes that the Church “will see me as one who did not know how to keep his promise, as someone who has got lost, and not for a woman but for a man.” He recognizes too that he will have “to renounce the ministry, which is also my whole life.” He insisted, however,“ I am not doing it so as to be able to live with my companion”, rather “this is a much wider decision that is born of reflection on the thinking of the Church.” 
He explained this, saying: “If I was not transparent, if I could not accept myself, I could not be a good priest because I would not be an agent for (communicating) the happiness of God.”

Now, who is acting irresponsibly? Mgr. Charasma applied all the elements necessary in forming one’s conscience from the data from science, biblical studies, theological research and personal prayer. And in the end he makes the great personal sacrifice - out  love for God and his people. We are most grateful for his courage and his commitment to God and His Church.

Monsignor Krzysztof Charamsa: The Church Needs to Wake Up - Oct. 25, 2015
BARCELONA, Spain — The Vatican kicked him out and his diocese fired him, but Krzysztof Charamsa says his faith is not shaken. If anything, he says he's a better priest for coming out — and it's time for the Church to wake up…
Courage, he said, is exactly what the Church is lacking — a realization he came to after years of secretly studying scientific journals and textbooks about sexuality while working in the heart of the Vatican.
His intellectual approach brought him to the conclusion that the Church position on sexuality is based on outdated ideas rather than reality, Charamsa said.
"We have 50 years of human research about sexuality," Charamsa told NBC News in an interview in Barcelona. "We have certitude in many points, but the Church does nothing."
He likened staying in the closet to a psychological and spiritual prison. Yes, his coming out was public — but it enabled him to live with love and truth as the Church teaches.
"Today, I am a better priest," he said. "The paradox is that today, I cannot exercise my being a priest.”…

Indifference

And equally revealing is how society’s indifference allows the dehumanization of one group of people, as during the time of Hitler and Nazi party, those who they arbitrarily classified as “subhuman”  that led to the destruction of 70 million people. It is the same way then - as it is now that led to the ravages globalization leading to the destruction of an untold number human beings.

The road to Auschwitz was built by hate, 
but paved with indifference.
Ian Kershaw
Popular Opinion and Political Dissent in the 
Third Reich, Bavaria 1933-1945

It is crucial to fully understand that Pope Benedict XVI is NOT a Nazi. He has long proved himself as a devoted and faithful Catholic priest, a brilliant theologian, a major reformer of Vatican II. To consider Benedict - a Nazi is to ignore how tragically children are traumatized by the influence of societal inhuman ideologies, and how it allows the violent destructive forces to mutate and continue to infect generations after generations unnoticed. This is especially true of the unsubstantiated antigay social and religious norms suppressing a child’s homosexual sexual orientation. Benedict, as a child was victimized by the severity of the Hitler’s and the Nazi Regime ideology of racial purity and as an adult victim, he has unconsciously reenacted many of the same humanizing elements - in the belief that he is protecting the Church, though in actuality he was causing it great harm. 

Indifference - plays a major part in the atrocities committed in human history, most especially when children are left unprotected. From research, it is clear that Benedict’s father tried relentlessly to protect his family having to move the family - four times, when Benedict was a child. However, according to Kershaw - the social environment was toxic with indifference.  Benedict like many other children during that time were left unprotected, mainly because people did not know how vulnerable children are to the elements of violence whether  explicitly or implicitly inflicted on human beings in the social environment (http://www.adoptionsupport.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Module-5-Handout-5.3.pdf)

When looking for ways to make a difference for the better in the world, - it is important to remember - never look for a crowd to lead the way against indifference. It is truly the road less traveled, but one that makes all the difference in the world.

Overcome indifference and win peace: 2016 Peace Day Message - Pope Francis - Dec 15, 2015
...Kinds of indifference 
3. Clearly, indifference is not something new; every period of history has known people who close their hearts to the needs of others, who close their eyes to what is happening around them, who turn aside to avoid encountering other people's problems. But in our day, indifference has ceased to be a purely personal matter and has taken on broader dimensions, producing a certain “globalization of indifference”. 
The first kind of indifference in human society is indifference to God, which then leads to indifference to one’s neighbour and to the environment. This is one of the grave consequences of a false humanism and practical materialism allied to relativism and nihilism. We have come to to think that we are the source and creator of ourselves, our lives and society. We feel self-sufficient, prepared not only to find a substitute for God but to do completely without him. As a consequence, we feel that we owe nothing to anyone but ourselves, and we claim only rights…
In other cases, indifference shows itself in lack of concern for what is happening around us, especially if it does not touch us directly. Some people prefer not to ask questions or seek answers; they lead lives of comfort, deaf to the cry of those who suffer. Almost imperceptibly, we grow incapable of feeling compassion for others and for their problems; we have no interest in caring for them, as if their troubles were their own responsibility, and none of our business.[9] “When we are healthy and comfortable, we forget about others (something God the Father never does): we are unconcerned with their problems, their sufferings and the injustices they endure... Our heart grows cold. As long as I am relatively healthy and comfortable, I don’t think about those less well off.”[10]

Recruiting Members - Curia & Hierarchy 

Benedict from his unconscious reenactments endlessly reliving the traumatized perspective of a 6 year old child, Benedict in 1968 stated  “…I learned where discussion must stop because it is turning into a lie and resistance must begin in order to maintain freedom (https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/ej-dionne-pope-benedicts-legacy-is-one-of-paradox/2013/02/11/441aa800-745a-11e2-aa12-e6cf1d31106b_story.html).” It is likely that any further discussion on the topic of what is likely related to the cause of the original traumatizing events - may be re-traumatizing for the individual - so any discussion on the topic appears to be avoided at all cost. (There are examples of this type reaction - regarding  those who were opposed to the legalization of gay marriage in the USA 2015.) It is well documented that he ended all discussion on the topic of homosexuality. This behavior has been explained about what happens when -

…traumatic memories of traumatic events persist as unassimilated fixed ideas that act as foci for the development of alternate states of consciousness, including dissociative phenomena, such as fugue states, amnesias, and chronic states of helplessness and depression. Unbidden memories of the trauma may return as physical sensations, horrific images or nightmares, behavioral reenactments, or a combination of these…traumatized individuals become fixated on the trauma: difficulties in assimilating subsequent experiences as well. It is "as if their personality development has stopped at a certain point and cannot expand anymore by the addition or assimilation of new elements." 
…early memory traces can be activated by later events that cause partial reliving of earlier traumas in the form of affect states, anxiety, or re-enactments. Their patients generally had a poor memory for traumatic childhood events…

Intellectual Deficiency 

This seems to have significantly impacted Benedict’s selection of the members to the curia, CDF and the hierarchy. Benedict - from the traumatized perspective of a 6 year old child, would not have been interested in the intellectual background of the clerics he chose. In fact, it is likely he preferred clerics who were less intellectually proficient to be assured that there would not be  any surprise challenges or open discussions on the topic of homosexuality. Therefore, this one criterion would help to account for the significantly lowering the overall intellectual level of the Church’s members of the curia and hierarchy, especially regarding any researching of the authoritative data on homosexuality.

Violence - & - Subhumans 

Again, it is important to remember that Benedict is working out of the traumatized perspective of a 6 year old child. From that state of mind it seems - he believed the lies that the Nazis made up about homosexuals to divert public attention away from their real reason for removing Catholic clerics that it was because the clerics were openly opposing the Nazis racial policy. The Nazis retaliated by falsely accusing the clerics of being homosexuals, so that the Nazis had in the view of the public’s eye - a legitimate reason for removing the clerics - instead of because the clerics were opposed to the Nazi racial policy (https://ke.army.mil/bordeninstitute/published_volumes/ethicsVol2/Ethics-ch-14.pdf). Benedict, as a traumatized - six year old child, would have truly believed that homosexuals were destroying the Church, he did not see the reality that it was the Nazis who were intent on destroying the Church.
Update: 11 03 15

…Many Nazis suspected Catholics of insufficient patriotism, or even of disloyalty to the Fatherland, and of serving the interests of "sinister alien forces”. Shirer wrote that "under the leadership of Rosenberg, Bormann and Himmler—backed by Hitler—the Nazi regime intended to destroy Christianity in Germany, if it could, and substitute the old paganism of the early tribal Germanic gods and the new paganism of the Nazi extremists.”  Anti-church and anti-clericalsentiments were strong among grassroots party activists…



Immaturity
Antigay Fixation

Benedict in his selection process would have only wanted those clerics who agree to obey his erroneous directives of protecting the Church from homosexuals. However, implied in Benedict's directives  would be the unconscious reenacting of the Nazi dehumanizing principles of the their racial policy that considered homosexuals like the Jewish people to be subhuman. This means that they are not really human beings that they are no different than rats, and could be easily dispose of without regret and now this violence was sanctioned by a top official of the Catholic Church. It was an unstated contempt for gay people and over time he recruited a population of what strongly  appears to be serious repressed and dissociated clerics from their homosexual sexual orientation. This helps to explain the extreme degree of the intensity of their collective antigay fixation suggests a level developmental immaturity though this is not true of all. 

Benedict’s antigay crusade - would have also attracted the appetites of psychopaths, who went further in their ruthless and deceitful ways of removing gay priests, theologians, and those attempting to meet the pastoral needs of gay people e.g. Hunthausen. It would not be what Benedict intended, because he was working out the traumatized perspective of a 6 year old child, however, this was the intent of the Nazis in removing the clerics, they wanted them dead and they did kill many of them. 

Mistaking the Vatican for the 
Colosseum 

However, this is where it seems his directives began to be mutated, to be exploited for personal greed of power and profit -  among much less scrupulous clerics and accomplices. It was perceived as the license to destroy people’s lives that a number of the members of the curia and hierarchy mistaken the Vatican for the Colosseum. It then attracted psychopaths from all walks of life. It is where the witch hunts for gay people became more severe and inhuman and the corruption of the curia greatly increased that eventually imploded as revealed in the Vatileaks 2012 and Benedict’s retiring 2013, ( Roman Curia “The Machine of The Slime” - PBS - http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/religion/secrets-of-the-vatican/transcript-58/).

Update: 11 03 15

This unchecked form of Church violence against gay people - still exists today in the curia - as was most recently found saturated with “Machiavellian manoeuvres" before (http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/oct/08/pope-francis-warns-bishops-against-conspiracy-theories-ahead-of-the-synod) and during (http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/10/22/us-pope-tumour-conspiracy-idUSKCN0SG1AQ20151022  &  http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/oct/07/conspiracy-theories-cant-match-the-real-catholic-church-under-pope-francis) the Synod 2015 (e.g. secret letter, brain tumor) that strangely included attempting to remove me from the priesthood while Pope Francis was on his trip to Cuba and the USA (https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/religion/francis-bids-farewell-tells-catholics-to-avoid-perversion-of-narrow-faith/2015/09/27/7dd5391e-6572-11e5-bdb6-6861f4521205_story.html). It is like it was with Hitler’s idea of promoting human violence under the disguise of national salvation that was the attraction for psychopaths -
…Not only the street-fighters and beer-hall brawlers in the nazi movement were attracted by the idea of violently-attained national salvation. As much recent research has shown, a new generation of intelligent, middle-class students at German universities in the early 1920s soaked up völkisch ideas, those of extreme racist nationalism, intrinsic to the ideas of national regeneration. In this way, ‘national salvation’ found intellectualized form among groups which would constitute a coming élite, groups whose doctorates in law combined with a rationalized ‘Neue Sachlichkeit’ (or ‘new objectivity’) type of approach to the ‘cleansing’ of the nation: the excision of its ‘life-threatening diseases’…

Benedict XVI - Reenacting Childhood - Nazi Demagoguery
Homosexuals 

Benedict, as a child of six years old and throughout his early childhood years, experienced traumatization of the absolute extreme form of authoritarian (1) dehumanization of homosexuals that was exceptionally deceptive and intentionally murderous, by the Nazi Regime (http://fathermartykurylowicz.blogspot.com/2012/02/gay-marriage-propaganda-tacticsb16s.html). The Nazis used (2) the tactics of demagoguery ( http://www.drw.utexas.edu/roberts-miller/sites/www.drw.utexas.edu.roberts-miller/files/demagoguery.pdf ) of their unchallenged dishonest and fallacious public discourse in rousing and justifying hatred - against homosexuals - in order to use them, as a scapegoat, to distract the public attention way from - Hitler’s and the Nazis covert promotion of their irrational, ruthless and lethal racial purity agenda. The Nazis then - having sufficiently increased demonization of homosexuals publicly - (3) they then accused the Catholic clergy - who openly challenged and opposed the Nazi racial purity agenda of being homosexuals to maintained the public support removing them to concentration camps to disposed of them. 

The indifference that allows the dehumanization of any group of people - will end up being catastrophic for everyone. 

In closely observing Benedict’s unconscious reenactments of his obsessive antigay crusade lasting more than 30 years, not only strongly indicates that (1) he has been suffering from the post-traumatic reactions from the ultimate authoritarian unsubstantiated demonization of homosexuality throughout his early childhood years that was simultaneously fanatically publicized by both Himmler (http://fathermartykurylowicz.blogspot.com/2015/01/cold-blooded-murderers-part-2-ghosts-in.html) and Goebbels (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_Nazi_Germany). It is likely to some degree - Benedict was (2) unconsciously reenacting many of the demagogic tactics that the Nazis used to promote their ruthless and lethal racial purity agenda, Benedict used to protect what he wrongly believed the Church to be endangered by homosexuals. But his beliefs are all still built on his childhood perceptions of the false diabolical deception that the Nazis made against homosexuals. Then - as now - the Catholic Church was never endangered by homosexuals, in fact, research found that as more gay priests entered the priesthood in the 1980s - the child sexual abuse dropped off “If anything, the report says, the abuse decreased as more gay priests began serving the church… (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/r/roman_catholic_church_sex_abuse_cases/index.html)." However, the overall use of the Nazis demagogic tactics, hardly seems possible that it can all be attributed to Benedict’s reenactments, especially, the intense degree of ruthlessness and deception involved. Considering, Benedict’s post-traumatic state of mind - it is most likely that the severity of his instructions to silence and remove homosexuals may have been misinterpreted and for some the license to unlash more psychopathic retaliation. It is likely this situation - that got out of control - like all the other forms of corruptions that ultimately led to the collapse of the structure and organization of the curia, riddled with the immaturity of all the infighting and power struggles that led to Benedict retiring in February 2013. All the same antics that are happening throughout the Synod 2015 - the remnant of those who exploited Benedict and became intoxicated for the lust of power and greed for money. 

“Walkout”!?!

Remnants of this lethal surrealistic behavior emerged before and during the Synod 2015 - attempting to derail the proceedings directly to prevent any restoration of the humanity of gay people, as real human beings (http://ncronline.org/news/vatican/cardinals-reportedly-criticize-synod-letter-francis-signatories-disassociate). It is the reversal of the Nazi racial policy the very core of the Nazi Ideology and attempting to move it out of the Catholic Church (https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/religion/us-archbishops-chaput-and-cupich-offer-sharply-different-visions-of-vatican-synod/2015/10/16/b797d128-743d-11e5-ba14-318f8e87a2fc_story.html). The annoyance and even anger, by what appears to be the majority of the participants at these attempts to derail the proceedings of the Synod 2015, is a sign that the reemergence of these types of past destructive antics, are backfiring (http://www.religionnews.com/2015/10/16/conservatives-high-stakes-vatican-summit-overplaying-hand/). The suggested “walkout” by a few members at the Synod - is blatantly identical to the forever derailments of a small group in the US Congress (http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2015/10/16/cardinal-pell-rejects-conservative-call-for-a-walkout-at-synod-of-bishops/). Is there a connection between these two groups? The Synod is the place about saving lives - not for destroying peoples’ lives. Archbishop Blase Cupich, directly addressed the issue of treating all people, as human beings - is most encouraging in reversing the past 30 years - dehumanization of gay people. 

Cupich emerges as strong voice in synod - October 17, 2015 
Amid reports of drama, division and deadlock among Roman Catholic bishops meeting in Rome, a delegate emerged from the closed-door meetings Friday to deliver a message of hope for many in the flock: The church will find new ways to offer help for families. That messenger was Chicago's own Archbishop Blase Cupich
"I think we have to make sure that we don't pigeonhole one group as though they're not part of the human family, so there's a different set of rules for them," Cupich said during the roundtable news briefing Friday. "That would be, I think, a big mistake."
"In Chicago I visit regularly with people who feel marginalized, whether they're elderly or the divorced and remarried, gay and lesbian individuals, also couples," Cupich said at the briefing. "We need to get to know what their life is like if we're going to accompany them.
"I try to help people along the way. And people come to a decision in good conscience," he said about personally counseling Catholics.
"Then our job with the church is to help them move forward and respect that," he said. "The conscience is inviolable. And we have to respect that when they make decisions, and I've always done that.”
Pressed to explain whether that same approach applies to same-sex couples, Cupich said "gay people are human beings too, and they have a conscience.”…

Archbishops Cupich, Martin, Cardinals Pell, Wuerl, Nichols and others are signs that the Synod 2105 is working. There is a change in their attitude. They act like they experienced something unique, they never experienced before more captivating and worthwhile than the petty, but lethal nonsense - the remnants terror and fear. If I am right - it is a good sign. It is a special brief moment in time of maybe wonder? God’s wonder? I could be wrong.

I hope it is more than a collective calm on the part of some - because the issue of gay loving couples has been put to rest - so they do not have to deal with their own individual dissociated feelings about their inner homosexual desires. That would be most revealing and destructive to all of humanity further destroying the credibility of the hierarchical members of the Church.  Photo

The structure and set up of the Synod - are all part of an academic process that has been researched and when they are used for the purpose of issues great than one’s self - they can transcend the realms of science in ways that are not researchable, but just as real. It is the understanding that comes with the effort and pains of open dialogue, essential for any organization, but crucial for the Synod. Where it will all end up, no one knows - but it should be a lot better than where we have been. My thought is that Pope Benedict would have likely been in the midst of it all, if he had never experienced the traumatic events of his early childhood years growing up in Nazi Germany. Because Pope Francis is implementing what he advocated that it is the duty of the pope to first hear from the differing voices in the Church before making a decision, as he stated in his 1968 book Introduction to Christianity. The participants of the Synod 2015 - first and foremost - should be making sure that what happened to Pope Benedict XVI never ever happens again to any child. 

A significant number of participants of the Synod 2015 appear to be reversing the Nazi racial policy the core of the Nazi Ideology that in many ways were unconsciously reenacted for the past 30 years. It is a most encouraging contrast to past 30 years, as expressed by remnants of this lethal surrealistic behavior attempting to disrupt the progress of the Synod 2015. 

"Working Towards the Führer

Benedict in his (3) single minded - traumatic state of reenactments of forever trying to save the Church from homosexuals - it appears he ended up choosing only those men who would obediently follow his exact orders - to be members of the curia and hierarchy - to witch hunt for homosexuals and annihilate them. But his idea of annihilation of homosexuals would be that of a 6 year old - that did not have the adult conception of lethal harm, for a child it just meant get “out of my sight.” Though - the idea of an all out open “witch hunt” for homosexuals and the idea of hatred and annihilation of human beings, as it did for Hitler - would attract many psychopathics, as well as, those suffering from similar though not as extreme authoritarian early childhood repression of their own homosexual sexual orientation. 

In many ways, though most unintentionally, Benedict recreated the same personnel that joined the Nazi party “…the street-fighters and beer-hall brawlers in the nazi movement were attracted by the idea of violently-attained national salvation (http://www.mconway.net/page1/page4/files/Uniqueness%20of%20Nazism.pdf).” Archbishop Weakland was among the first, in 1986, to raise the red flag identifying the personnel of the CDF calling them “amateurs-turned-theologians” who became “headhunters and leaders” picked only because of their rigidity to doctrine - were, in fact, “second rate and repressive minds riding on the waves of fear ( http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1986-09-28/news/8603120562_1_archbishop-weakland-seattle-archbishop-raymond-hunthausen-seattle-archdiocese ).” It would also help to account for the lack of academic abilities and low intelligence of the majority of the members of the curia and hierarchy. Because Benedict in his post-traumatic reenactments would be in a state of terror to save the Church and would not be interested with any intellectual disagreements or discussion - only that homosexuals would be silenced and removed.

“A Still and Quiet Conscience: The Archbishop Who Challenged a Pope, a President and a Church
by John McCoy - book -  May 10, 2015
&

There are four basic trademarks that belong to Benedict XVI or rather they belong to Himmler and the Nazi regime: (1) the irrational and arbitrary use of science, (2) Himmler’s dehumanizing and unsubstantiated obsessive antigay propaganda, (3) the infallibility of Hitler and by extension the Nazi regime and (4) blind unconditional obedience to Hitler.  

Throughout the Benedict’s reign in the two highest offices at  the Vatican: - (a) if he stated or wrote something, especially on (b) homosexuality - no other explanation was required, regardless if it was (c) contrary to science and he (d) demanded unconditional obedience.  He strongly appears he picked only those who unquestionably agreed with all of the above to be members of the hierarchy and the curia.  The most likely type of personality to agree to such absurd requirements would be of lower intelligence, insecure and the person’s sense of self-worth would be tightly tied to the prestige of being associated with Benedict XVI. In addition, it would likely attract a mixture of mercenary types of personality, bordering on being psychopathic, whose intentions are to exploit others, which has been well documented to have been the case, particularly throughout the Roman curia. There are many similarities between (1) Benedict’s unconscious reenactments in the composition of the members of the curia, though not all and their ultimate demise as noted in the Vatileaks and the documentary - August 2014, the “Secrets of the Vatican” presented by PBS - FRONTLINE (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/religion/secrets-of-the-vatican/transcript-58/) and (2) the formation and demise of the bureaucracy of the Nazi Party under Hitler, as noted in Ian Kershaw’s essay "Working Towards the Führer.

"Working Towards the Führer”- Ian Kershaw
In a 1993 essay "Working Towards the Führer", Kershaw argued that the German and Soviet dictatorships had more differences than similarities. Kershaw argued that Hitler was a very unbureaucratic leader who was highly averse to paper work in marked contrast to Stalin. Likewise, Kershaw argued that Stalin was highly involved in the running of the Soviet Union in contrast to Hitler whose involvement in day-to-day decision making was limited, infrequent and capricious. Kershaw argued that the Soviet regime, despite all of its extreme brutality and utter ruthlessness, was basically rational in its goal of seeking to modernise a backward country and had no equivalent of the "cumulative radicalization" towards increasingly irrational goals that Kershaw sees as characteristic of Nazi Germany. In Kershaw's opinion, Stalin's power corresponded to Weber's category of bureaucratic authority, whereas Hitler's power corresponded to Weber's category of charismatic authority. In Kershaw's view, what happened in Germany after 1933 was the imposition of Hitler's charismatic authority on top of the "legal-rational" authority system that had existed prior to 1933, leading to a gradual breakdown of any system of ordered authority in Germany. Kershaw argues that by 1938 the German state had been reduced to a hopeless, polycratic shambles of rival agencies all competing with each other to win Hitler's favour, which by that time had become the only source of political legitimacy. Kershaw sees this rivalry as causing the "cumulative radicalization" of Germany, and argues that though Hitler always favoured the most radical solution to any problem, it was German officials themselves who for the most part, in attempting to win the Führer's approval, carried out on their own initiative increasingly "radical" solutions to perceived problems like the "Jewish Question", as opposed to being ordered to do so by Hitler…

Adolph Hitler, Mein Kampf, 1924

Historical Nazi Germany - Background 1933-1945 

The complexities of the atrocities committed by Hitler and the Nazi Regime from 1933 to 1945 added up to being - “…the single most destructive event in human history: the Second World War. More than seventy million people died in the war, most of them civilians. Millions died in combat. Many were burned alive by incendiary bombs and, in the end, nuclear weapons. Millions more were victims of systematic genocide. Dehumanization made much of this carnage possible (http://www.npr.org/2011/03/29/134956180/criminals-see-their-victims-as-less-than-human).” A familiarity of the research work of both - Ian Kershaw http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Kershaw ) and Robert N. Proctor (https://ke.army.mil/bordeninstitute/published_volumes/ethicsVol2/Ethics-ch-14.pdf) on the "Bavaria Project” and Racial Hygiene "lives not worth living” is helpful to begin to appreciate the scope of the complexity of what life was like for Benedict growing up in Nazi Germany, 1927 to 1945. For a detailed and comprehensive understanding regarding the long lasting traumatizing effects of the dehumanizing atrocities committed by the Nazi Regime can be found reading the works of Henry Krystal, M.D. (http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.503.8809&rep=rep1&type=pdf), author of Integration & Self-Healing, Affect, Trauma, Alexithymia, 1988. He is a Holocaust survivor, born in 1923, four years before Benedict XVI was born in 1927. Dr. Krystal is an internationally renowned psychiatrist. He is noted for his extensive work with Holocaust survivors and traumatized people. For well over fifty years Dr. Krystal has been studying and writing about the consequences of psychological trauma, often disguised by drug addiction and/or psychosomatic problems. His work includes detailing the development of emotions from infancy through adolescence.

Are conservatives at high-stakes Vatican summit overplaying their hand? - October 16, 2015 
VATICAN CITY (RNS) Ever since a Vatican summit last year raised the possibility of making the church more open to those whose family lives may not mirror the Catholic ideal, conservative foes have been in uproar, waging an intense campaign to block any reforms from being adopted.
Yet as a follow-up meeting this month has progressed, the enthusiasm of the traditionalists could be overwhelming their tactical judgment — annoying and even angering  enough of their fellow bishops they may have weakened what was once considered a strong position…
“My reading of all this is that the ploy has backfired,” wrote veteran Vaticanista John Thavis. “I suspect most synod participants are not amused at this rather obvious attempt to pre-emptively discredit the synod’s outcome.”…
At the same time, nearly every day conservative churchmen or their allies are holding press conferences to denounce their opponents or their arguments in the strongest terms, or are delivering hard-line speeches in the synod hall that seem to provide little space for compromise…

Uncertainty surrounds cardinals’ letter voicing doubts about the synod - October 12, 2015 
…According to Magister’s account of the letter, which was dated a week ago (Oct. 5), the cardinals reportedly told the pope that changes in the synod process seem designed to “facilitate predetermined results on important disputed questions.”
Such questions include the three hot-button issues that have caused the most division during the synod process that began in 2013:
The Church’s stance on whether divorced and civilly remarried Catholics should be able to receive Communion
A more welcoming stance toward members of the LGBT community
Couples in irregular situations, such as living together without being married
Several of the reported signers are conservative bishops who are on the record expressing reservations about changes in Church teaching on any of these issues…

Denying One’s Desires Tied to Homophobia - April 9, 2012
   New studies suggest those who express virulent dislike of homosexuals may have an unacknowledged attraction to the same sex. Researchers also discovered homophobia is more pronounced in individuals who grew up with authoritarian parents who forbade such desires.
  The study is the first to document the role that both parenting and sexual orientation play in the formation of intense and visceral fear of homosexuals, including self-reported homophobic attitudes, discriminatory bias, implicit hostility towards gays, and endorsement of anti-gay policies.
   “Individuals who identify as straight but in psychological tests show a strong attraction to the same sex may be threatened by gays and lesbians because homosexuals remind them of similar tendencies within themselves,” said Dr. Netta Weinstein, a lecturer in psychology at the University of Essex and the study’s lead author.
   “In many cases these are people who are at war with themselves and they are turning this internal conflict outward,” said co-author Dr. Richard Ryan, professor of psychology at the University of Rochester who helped direct the research…

Parental Autonomy Support and Discrepancies Between Implicit and Explicit Sexual Identities: Dynamics of Self-Acceptance and Defense 
Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 2012


Projection
When an internal impulse provokes too much anxiety, the ego may reduce that anxiety by attributing the unwanted impulse to an external object, usually another person.  This is the defense mechanism of projection, which can be defined as seeing in others unacceptable feelings or tendencies that actually reside in one’s own unconscious (Freud, 1915/1957b). For example, a man may consistently interpret the actions of older women as attempted seductions. Consciously, the thought of sexual intercourse with older women may be intensely repugnant to him, but buried in his unconscious is a strong erotic attraction to these women. In this example, the young man deludes himself into believing that he has no sexual feelings for older women. Although this projection erases most of his anxiety and guilt, it permits him to maintain a sexual interest in women who remind him of his mother.
An extreme type of projection is paranoia, a mental disorder characterized by powerful delusions of jealousy and persecution. Paranoia is not an inevitable outcome of projection but simply a severe variety of it. According to Freud (1922/1955), a crucial distinction between projection and paranoia is that paranoia is always characterized by repressed homosexual feelings toward the persecutor. Freud believed that the persecutor is inevitably a former friend of the same sex, although sometimes people may transfer their delusions onto a person of the opposite sex. When homosexual impulses become too powerful, persecuted paranoiacs defend themselves by reversing these feelings and then projecting them onto their original object. For men, the transformation proceeds as follows. Instead of saying, “I love him,” the paranoid person says, “I hate him.” Because this also produces too much anxiety, he says, “He hates me.” At this point, the person has disclaimed all responsibility and can say, “I like him fine, but he’s got it in for me.” The central mechanism in all paranoia is projection with accompanying delusions of jealousy and persecution…

Reaction Formation - Homophobic men
Concept. The concept of reaction formation involves converting a socially unacceptable impulse into its opposite. To apply this notion to esteem protection, one may propose the following: People respond to the implication that they have some unacceptable trait by behaving in a way that would show them to have the opposite trait. Insinuations of hostility or intolerance might, for example, be countered with exaggerated efforts to prove oneself a peace-loving or tolerant person.
Evidence. The original ideas about reaction formation pertained to aggressive and sexual impulses, and these are still plausible places for finding defenses, provided that acknowledging those impulses or feelings would damage self-esteem. With sex, there are undoubtedly still cases in which people regard their own potential sexual responses as unacceptable…
A comparable finding with male subjects was recently reported by Adams, Wright, and Lohr (1996). They assessed homophobia and then exposed participants to videotapes depicting homosexual intercourse. Homophobic men reported low levels of sexual arousal, but physiological measures indicated higher levels of sexual response than were found among other participants. Thus, again, the subjective response reported by these participants was the opposite of what their bodies actually indicated. This finding also fits the view that homophobia may itself be a reaction formation against homosexual tendencies, insofar as the men who were most aroused by homosexuality were the ones who expressed the most negative attitudes toward it…

Sexual Repressed Homosexuals & Bisexual 
And 
Gay Adult Pornography



Truly I tell you, 
the gay porn actors and 
the gay prostitutes 
are entering the 
kingdom of God 
ahead of you.



Gay Adult Pornography
&
Sexual Fetishes

There tends to be an overwhelming pervasive self-righteous attitude and disdained disapproval of anyone who has viewed gay adult pornography. However, this self-righteous reaction of superiority is far more revealing of the people who project their scornfulness onto those they deemed to be far less righteous. 

These people would have had to viewed gay adult pornography and had been considerably - sexually aroused by the content to the degree that activated their repressive defenses to attempt to obliterate from memory the erotic feelings it evoked. They may be able to block it from their conscious memory, but not entirely, because it will remain alive and active in their unconscious minds. And when it surfaces - it will be projected on to someone else as if it never came from them.

Because, otherwise why would they become so outraged about someone viewing gay adult pornography - unless of course they are familiar with the content and the erotic feelings it evokes . Otherwise, why become so outrage about something they have no knowledge of, this would then be a symptom of a form of mental illness. 

But the issue of viewing gay adult pornography goes far more deeper than activating the defense of repression and then projection.  The ubiquitous spread of gay adult pornography throughout the Internet and the collective intense self-righteous reactions to it - says something about the truth about homosexuality - sexual orientation.

There is considerably much more to gay adult pornography, and that of all forms of adult pornography, including the display of all types of sexual fetishes than evoking intense erotic feelings. There is a lot to learn about human sexuality and the reasons that leads to the global population accessing of adult pornography, but in particular of gay adult pornography.

The truth appears to be that the sexual orientation of homosexuality is a normal and natural part of human sexual development that is set very early in life either just before birth or very soon after birth. And any attempt to disrupt the natural development of child’s particular sexual orientation - depending the kind and degree of intensity of this disruption - will have lifelong lasting negative effects regarding there ability to love others and to be loved. It negatively effects their ability to form meaningful lifelong and nurturing relationships. There is a real tendency that it will lead to some form of sexual acting out behaviors, such as, though not limited to, viewing adult pornography and the possibility of developing any number of sexual fetishes.

Burke’s Tormented - Gay Sexual Repression 
Fuels 
Gay Adult Pornography Industry 

If it wasn’t for sexual repression - the pornography industry would be out of business, thus ending the exploitation of human beings. 

Depending on the kind and degree of intensity of the unnatural sexual repression of the development of a person’s sexual orientation, beginning in early childhood, whether heterosexual or homosexual, will have varying corresponding lifelong disruptive effects, especially, regarding the person’s ability in forming and maintaining relationships. 

 Clinical Assessment 
Internet - Gay Adult Pornography 

These corresponding lifelong disruptive effects - include the likely possibility of being expressed through any number of sexual acting out behaviors, and sexual fetishes. This is visibly evident, as found on the Internet, today, that display an incalculable array of adult pornography depicting endless forms of sexual behaviors and fetishes that are heterosexual, bisexual and homosexual in nature. 

Why Research - Gay Adult Pornography?

An academic objective clinical research assessment of the ubiquitous forms of gay adult pornography found on the Internet, would be crucial in our understanding how harmful is the sexual repression on a child growing up who has a gay sexual orientation or a child growing up who has a bisexual sexual orientation.  It would be vital to learn, what are the life sustaining harmful effects caused by the varying degrees of the sexual repression of a child’s sexual orientation has on the child for life and how it may impact the lives of others.  

In the case of Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Burke the sexual repression of the homosexual orientation was extremely authoritarian and pervasive throughout their years growing up in their social environments.  This was especially true for Benedict, as both hostile social environments are historically documented as being heavily influenced with the dehumanizing antigay propaganda of Himmler and McCarthy respectively.  The lasting harmful effects from the extreme sexual repression imposed on the early childhood years of both Benedict and Burke have been extremely severe globally on not only gay adults and gay children, but on everyone.  This is evident by their unending obsessive antigay campaign that has also been historically documented for the past 30 years, noted by their fierce silencing the emerging science of homosexuality.  

Differences In Adult Pornography 

Such research, could begin to help us to understand the nature - in how and in what ways gay adult pornography differs from adult heterosexual pornography. Adult heterosexual sexual behavior that is not overt, but is benign, such as, public expressions of affection and love for another human being, a simple kiss, holding hands, embracing are ubiquitously displayed endlessly throughout every aspect of society, i.e. in love songs, operas, movies, advertisements, etc. Photo

However, for gay people, these same benign public expressions of affection and love are completely absent in society. Largely, because signs of affection, especially, between two gay males, evoke such hostile reactions from disgust to, as documented, to outright violence, to torture even to death by supposedly heterosexual male onlookers. How, why - on earth would simple expressions of love between two men - evoke in some other men, who claim to be straight - the absolute opposite expression of love - to become to mercilessly want to annihilate another human being(s)?

Burke’s Ruthless - Gay Sexual Repression
Genocide   

Instead, these same harmless benign public expressions of love by gay couples have more often invoked intense violence even grounds deserving of the death penalty. But what is most reprehensible is that such unconscionable inhuman, cold-blooded violence directed against gay human beings continues to be ruthlessly fueled by Cardinal Burke’s public statements, such as, referring to gay couples as murders, and most recently his orchestration of Italy's fifth annual National March for Life, on May 10, 2015. Christians are killed “in the name of God.”

Public Obliteration of Any Visual Representation
of 
Gay Couples

This kind of obliteration of any visual public representation of the natural and normal expression of affection and love of gay couples is a severe form of collective homosexual sexual repression promoting violence against human beings, a genocide.

Who’s The Blame
for
Gay Adult PornographyPhoto

It not only (1) fuels violence against gay people, at the same time fuels the (2) viewing of gay adult pornography, including making it the only source that (3) validates the reality and existence of adult gay people, admittedly not the best source, nonetheless the only source. And who is the blame for this? Those who chose to (a) remain ignorant (vincible ignorance) and those who (b) enforced the ignorance of homosexual sexual orientation i.e. Cardinal Burke. Together, they form a group on the basis of their unquestionable willful ignorance of homosexual sexual orientation an extreme form of gay sexual repression - reinforced by their intense self-righteous attitude that perpetuates their collective blindness - causing structural violence atrocities.

Chaput’s Internet
Gay Adult Pornography 

This includes the use of Internet pornography, which is - more likely a disguised obsession of Chaput’s own, along with the US Catholic Bishops, specific concern regarding gay adult pornography. Their insistence in playing Pinocchio’s nose, also found explained below.   Photo

Chaput along with the US Catholic Bishops and that of Burke and Cordileone are a global example of collective culpability of vincible ignorance regarding sexual orientation and gender identity - “the blind leading the blind.”  They appear to be playing the lethal game of “Psychopath Cowboys.”  Their authoritarian intolerance of gay people is more than likely reenactments of events and situations of how they were mistreated as children throughout their early childhood years growing up.  They are perpetuating generational violence against gay people, especially gay children. 

Psychopath Cowboys; Sociopath Herds: A New Theory of How Evil Happens - July 19, 2011
…Patriotism is but one of a great many ways to claim the moral mantel by assuming the role of ultimate moral judge and condemning others. More generally and more to the point, moral condemnation of one's opponents is the first refuge of a psychopath.
To look like a moral leader a psychopath need only follow a simple formula. Project your psychopathy onto your opponent. Simply inventory the list of dirty tricks you would be willing to play on your opponent and accuse your opponent of employing each one. If you lie, call your opponent a liar. If you slander accuse him of slander. If you corrupt public debate accuse him of corrupting public debate. If you don't care about the downtrodden, accuse your opponent of not caring about the downtrodden.
Isn't such hypocrisy easily detected? Not if the hypocrite is first to accuse. Projecting from normal moral sensitivities, he who casts the first stone must have a damned good reason, because it's such an audacious thing to do. The seconded to accuse, we assume needn't have a good reason. A retaliator is just trying to weasel out of the hot seat the first to accuse rightfully put him in…

Given Uganda's homophobia, why does it lead the way in Googling gay porn? -  10 January 2014
Is there a connection, then, between homophobia and suppressed homosexuality, along the lines of "me thinks he protesteth too much"? Is it that homosexual desires, when shut out because of some sense of shame, can easily express themselves as a form of homophobia? When the US conservative evangelical pastor Ted Haggard, well known for his anti-gay preaching, was discovered to have been paying a masseur for gay sex, he explained that "I think I was partially so vehement because of my own war". Freud coined the description "reaction-formation", in which anxiety-generating feelings are masked by an exaggerated reaction in the opposite direction. There is some experimental evidence to back this up, with one study showing that 20% of those who self-described as "highly straight" indicated some level of same-sex attraction. This discrepancy is often put down to highly controlling parents who do not allow their children room to explore their sexual identity.
Yes, of course, there are many people who do not experience same-sex attraction who are anti-gay. But one of the features of reaction-formation is its paranoia and lack of proportion. And this is precisely what the scaremongering nonsense about gay people being out to get our children – a common line in the Ugandan debate – clearly demonstrates. In conservative religious environments where God is depicted as a powerful all-controlling parent, it makes sense to me that this reaction-formation will be particularly strong…

Why Is Gay Porn So Popular in Pakistan? - June 13, 2013
Earlier this month, the Pew Research Center published results of a public survey of gay tolerance in 39 countries worldwide. The numbers are fairly unsurprising: While a high proportion of respondents in Western Europe and North America answered "yes" to the question "Should society accept homosexuality?" few respondents in the Middle East and Africa agreed with them.
Among the least tolerant nations surveyed was Pakistan, where only 2 percent of those surveyed said society should accept homosexuality. That statistic might be unsurprising, considering that gay sex is illegal under the Pakistani penal code. But what is surprising is how those views compare to Pakistani search traffic around gay-porn-related terms…

The Global Divide on Homosexuality - June 4, 2013
Pew Research Center

What lies behind religious homophobia - February 26, 2013
"And why is your church so anti-gay?," came back the obvious question. "Because it is so gay," I replied.
A furrowed brow invited further exposition. I then spelt out the logic. We interviewed clerics and ex-seminarians in the UK, US and Rome and uncovered a huge irony: the very institution that teaches that the homosexual orientation is "intrinsically disordered" attracts gay candidates for the priesthood in numbers way in excess of what one would expect, based on numbers in society at large. One seminary rector based on his own experience told me the number was at least 50%.
Gay Catholics like me will appreciate another irony with the news of Cardinal Keith O'Brien's resignation: that the very man whose trenchant rhetoric on the subjects of gay adoption and marriage has been brought down by accusations of improper same-sex behaviour from no less than four men who crossed his path in the 1980s, either as a seminary rector or as archbishop of Edinburgh. His decision not to participate in the papal conclave is not to be taken as an admission of guilt and he contests the accusations made against him. Nevertheless, it does raise some general questions about a possible relationship between the tone of anti-gay rhetoric and the identities of those who engage in such high-octane language on same sex attraction…

The Size of the LGBT Population and the Magnitude of Anti-Gay Sentiment are Substantially Underestimated - October 2013 
Measuring sexual orientation, behavior, and related opinions is difficult because responses are biased towards socially acceptable answers. We test whether measurements are biased even when responses are private and anonymous and use our results to identify sexuality-related norms and how they vary…
…The results show non-heterosexuality and anti-gay sentiment are substantially underestimated in existing surveys, and the privacy afforded by current best practices is not always sufficient to eliminate bias. Finally, our results identify two social norms: it is perceived as socially undesirable both to be open about being gay, and to be unaccepting of gay individuals.

How Many American Men Are Gay? - December 7, 2013
WHAT percent of American men are gay? This question is notoriously difficult to answer. Historical estimates range from about 2 percent to 10 percent.
But somewhere in the exabytes of data that human beings create every day are answers to even the most challenging questions.
Using surveys, social networks, pornographic searches and dating sites, I recently studied evidence on the number of gay men. The data used in this analysis is available in highly aggregated form only and can be downloaded from publicly accessible sites. While none of these data sources are ideal, they combine to tell a consistent story.
At least 5 percent of American men, I estimate, are predominantly attracted to men, and millions of gay men still live, to some degree, in the closet. Gay men are half as likely as straight men to acknowledge their sexuality on social networks. More than one quarter of gay men hide their sexuality from anonymous surveys. The evidence also suggests that a large number of gay men are married to women…
…Additional evidence that suggests that many gay men in intolerant states are deeply in the closet comes from a surprising source: the Google searches of married women. It turns out that wives suspect their husbands of being gay rather frequently. In the United States, of all Google searches that begin “Is my husband...,” the most common word to follow is “gay.” “Gay” is 10 percent more common in such searches than the second-place word, “cheating.” It is 8 times more common than “an alcoholic” and 10 times more common than “depressed.”
Searches questioning a husband’s sexuality are far more common in the least tolerant states. The states with the highest percentage of women asking this question are South Carolina and Louisiana. In fact, in 21 of the 25 states where this question is most frequently asked, support for gay marriage is lower than the national average…

Porn Studies - 2004

Brief description:
In her pioneering book Hard Core, Linda Williams put moving-image pornography on the map of contemporary scholarship with her analysis of the most popular and enduring of all film and video genres. Now, fifteen years later, she showcases the next generation of critical thinking about pornography and signals new directions for study and teaching. Porn Studies resists the tendency to situate pornography as the outer limit of what can be studied and discussed. With revenues totaling between ten and fourteen billion dollars annually—more than the combined revenues of professional football, basketball, and baseball—visual, hard-core pornography is a central feature of American popular culture. It is time, Williams contends, for scholars to recognize this and give pornography a serious and extended analysis.
The essays in this volume move beyond feminist debates and distinctions between a “good” erotica and a “bad” hard core. Contributors examine varieties of pornography from the tradition of the soft-core pin-up through the contemporary hard-core tradition of straight, gay, and lesbian videos and dvds to the burgeoning phenomenon of pornography on the Internet…

Pornography Consumption and US Adults' Attitudes toward Gay Individuals' Civil Liberties, Moral Judgments of Homosexuality, and Support for Same-Sex Marriage: Mediating and Moderating Factors
Paul J. Wright, Robert S. Tokunaga & Soyoung Bae - 18 Feb 2014
Abstract
This study compared views on homosexuality among US adults who varied in their consumption of pornography. Nationally representative cross-sectional data generated by the General Social Survey (GSS) between 2000 and 2012 were employed. Pornography consumers expressed more positive attitudes toward gay individuals' civil liberties, more moral acceptance of homosexuality, and more support for same-sex marriage. Moderation analyses indicated the importance of consumers' views on personal freedom and morality. Associations between pornography consumption and positive views on homosexuality were strongest when consumers placed a premium on personal freedom and adopted a relativistic perspective on morality. Mediation analyses indicated that pornography consumption indirectly predicted more positive views on homosexuality through a nontraditional attitude toward sex. Supplementary analysis of nationally representative three-wave GSS panel data confirmed the temporal sequencing of these links. Prior pornography consumption predicted a more positive subsequent attitude toward nontraditional sex, which in turn predicted more positive subsequent views on homosexuality.

A new command I give you: Love one another. 
As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 
By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, 
if you love one another.
John 13:34-35






Any attempt to save face in a sense of collegiality among the members of curia and hierarchy - by discrediting even in the slightest the person with the protocol number 20131723/F or refusing proper restitution - for the harm inflicted upon me by the Vatican - with all due respect, if you will pardon the expression - you can kiss your ass - Good-by! 

I say this in no way to protect myself - because the issue is not about me it is about truth and children - all children globally.  The only thing I can be accused of - is resisting risking my life - in standing up for children, by “coming out.” And isn't that the very core of what it means to be a priest that we willingly sacrifice our lives for others, most especially for children! Or did you become a priest so that you could wear a dress! I willingly admit - I tried to get out of what I knew I had to do, however, now - it has been passed on to you. Photo

I will explain, as I have written to many US politicians, how I handled this situation: 


WELL-INFORMED CONSCIENCE
Protect Religious Freedom - but not 
Tyranny in Religion 
June 20, 2011
  The way to begin for us all, not only the NY State Senators, to protect Religious Freedom and not Tyranny in Religion is by obtaining a well-informed conscience.  We start by individually approaching and studying in great detail, because it involves the lives of children, from the best and the brightest (1) scripture scholars regarding the references related to homosexuality and (2) scientists in the field of study of human sexuality, in particular, but [not] limited to, the onset of sexual orientation. The prerequisite to the formation of a well-informed conscience is making a thorough study of all sides of the issue from all available authoritative data and research, including opposing views. Then in this way we are better equipped to decide who and what needs government protection in regards to the gay marriage bill. This exhaustive procedure follows to the letter the Gospel quotation about the “plank” and the” speck.”

How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. 
Luke 6:42

  The “plank” for us is ignorance.  If we satisfactorily resolve this ignorance, then together we will be able to see more clearly, whether or not, as NY State Senators (government officials) and as citizens we are colluding with the Catholic Hierarchy and are harming children, as was found to be the case in the Ireland Murphy Report.
  …This piece of legislation the gay marriage bill is not like any other in that it involves the well-being of children, at its very root…
  How I resolved this situation was through hours upon hours of continuous prayer. Afterwards, I came to the realization that my life had already been altered – changed forever. Because there was no way I could pretend I did not know what I knew, how severely children are harmed for life by the Vatican unsubstantiated antigay teachings and antigay social norms. I decided that I could not live with the regret knowing that I had a chance to make a profound difference for the better for others, most especially children and that I did nothing. My life would be nothing. I took the bungee jump and I came out to my parishioners. It definitely was not easy, but one thing that happened to me is - I gained a real sense of peace and well-being that has remained constant and unshaken. The scripture passages that kept repeating over and over in my head were:

For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. 
Matthew 16:25

Overcome indifference and win peace: 2016 Peace Day Message - Pope Francis - Dec 15, 2015
..Kinds of indifference 
3. Clearly, indifference is not something new; every period of history has known people who close their hearts to the needs of others, who close their eyes to what is happening around them, who turn aside to avoid encountering other people's problems. But in our day, indifference has ceased to be a purely personal matter and has taken on broader dimensions, producing a certain “globalization of indifference”. 
The first kind of indifference in human society is indifference to God, which then leads to indifference to one’s neighbour and to the environment. This is one of the grave consequences of a false humanism and practical materialism allied to relativism and nihilism. We have come to to think that we are the source and creator of ourselves, our lives and society. We feel self-sufficient, prepared not only to find a substitute for God but to do completely without him. As a consequence, we feel that we owe nothing to anyone but ourselves, and we claim only rights…
In other cases, indifference shows itself in lack of concern for what is happening around us, especially if it does not touch us directly. Some people prefer not to ask questions or seek answers; they lead lives of comfort, deaf to the cry of those who suffer. Almost imperceptibly, we grow incapable of feeling compassion for others and for their problems; we have no interest in caring for them, as if their troubles were their own responsibility, and none of our business.[9] “When we are healthy and comfortable, we forget about others (something God the Father never does): we are unconcerned with their problems, their sufferings and the injustices they endure... Our heart grows cold. As long as I am relatively healthy and comfortable, I don’t think about those less well off.”[10]

October 8, 2005 - Impending rules on gay priests creates Catholic divide
…Rev. Martin Kurylowicz...said...the struggle would be made harder for many others if the Vatican issues new rules that reportedly would ban gays from becoming priests… “Kids as young as 4 or 5 know they're different," said Kurylowicz... "They grow up with this pervasive guilt, which sabotages their growth and motivation." The result is thousands of dollars in therapy to accept their natural orientation, he said, adding, "Does the Vatican want to take that on, like the tobacco industry had to take on for the damage it caused consumers?”...

May 27, 2006 - Gay priest removed from ministry
(check The Grand Rapids Press for accuracy)
Note: Bishop Hurley unethically manipulates canon law misrepresenting my situation: by excluding the factual details of the Vatican’s equally unethical punitive sanctions and threats imposed on me for “coming out” for the protection of children in March 1997, e.g. lost of the possibility of future assignments, regular priest salary and educational benefits, to  coerce my compliance to be reeducated - to assure my silence in protecting children or to force me to leave the priesthood. Hurley’s dishonest response to the press was meant to destroy my credibility and reputation. Hurley also disclosed the cost of my psychotherapy sessions, a breach of employer employee confidentially. There are No USA civil laws to protect gay priests from such a fatal destructive public attack on my reputation. The same tactic was used, again in 2012, against Vatican Bank, ex-president Tedeschi, who was attempting to increase the transparency of the scandal-ridden Vatican institution. There is “…the publication of a letter from a psychotherapist detailing the mental health of the Vatican's recently ousted bank chief…and appeared aimed at further discrediting and humiliating the Vatican bank's ex-president, Ettore Gotti Tedeschi, once a top papal adviser…”(http://www.businessweek.com/ap/2012-06/D9VBK7581.htm

   Hurley’s deliberate distortion of the facts of my situation was meant to humiliate me publicly, a character assassination against me. This was not just one single isolated character assassination attack made against me. The exact pattern of this character assassination attack, since 2004 to 2014  has been over used by the Vatican under Benedict XVI - against anyone - deemed as a threat to their specific ideology, especially related to gay sexual orientation. On, April 30, 2014, Cardinal Muller of the CDF, issued a forceful public statement against the LCWR leaders that is confusing and irrationally based on a misrepresentation of unsubstantiated facts. Cardinal Burke during and after the Synod on the Family, October 2014 - fiercely demonstrated by his unwillingness to even discuss issues related marriage and gay sexual orientation, the pervasive hostile attitude against homosexuality.
