(Before It's News)
If these words comforted and encouraged me they will surely have done the same for leaders of the church in Argentina, among many others. To the judicious and fair-minded outsider it has been clear for years that the upper reaches of the Argentine church contained many “lost sheep in the wilderness”, men who had communed and supported the unspeakably brutal western-supported military dictatorship that seized power in that country in 1976 and battened on it for years.
What one did not hear from any senior member of the Argentine hierarchy was any expression of regret for the church’s collaboration and in these crimes. The extent of the church’s complicity in the dark deeds was excellently set out by Horacio Verbitsky, one of Argentina’s most notable journalists, in his book El Silencio (Silence).
He recounts how the Argentine navy with the connivance of Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio, now Pope Francis, hid from a visiting delegation of the Inter-American Human Rights Commission the dictatorship’s political prisoners. Bergoglio was hiding them in nothing less than his holiday home in an island called El Silencio in the River Plate.
The most shaming thing for the church is that in such circumstances Bergoglio’s name was allowed to go forward in the ballot to chose the successor of John Paul II. What scandal would not have ensued if the first pope ever to be elected from the continent of America had been revealed as an accessory to murder and false imprisonment
Benedict was in the Hitler Youth and Francis was a junta sympathizer. The Catholic church itself has a history of sympathy towards fascism because they compliment one another. Franco, Hitler, Mussolini, Golden Dawn… They all have or had their churches backing at least in part. -Mort
More devious demented drivel from Mort who actually thinks he’s a “reporter.”
Maybe devious – isn’t all reporting devious in some measure?
But is it untrue?
If there are any errors/untruths, please point them out and give your sources, troll.
If killing liberals is a sin, then sign me up.
If Francis I follows his vow of poverty and unloads the ill gotten Vatican treasures, he will end up murdered like JPI.
