Excommunicated Priestesses Invited to the Vatican?

(Rome) last Friday to representatives of militant women's association Women's Ordination Worldwide (WOW) have been received in the Vatican. The organization calls for the introduction of women to the priesthood by the Catholic Church.
According to a WOW spokesman, the excommunicated Pole, Janice Secre-Duszynska, she had been received by a "senior official" of the Vatican Secretariat of State, together with other WOW "priestesses". They wished to leave a petition with which they begin a dialogue and the lifting of the excommunication against persons called by Pope Francis, who work for women priests in the Catholic Church.
Ambiguous wording of Pope Francis may have been conceived as "openness" to several controversial issues. But women priests are not part of his agenda. Pope John Paul II had uttered with the Apostolic Letter Ordinatio Sacerdotalis  in 1994, a definite no to women priests. His affirmation of the sacrament instituted by Christ is considered canonically a pronouncement ex cathedra. The dogmatic character leaves the question out of further discussion.
Last month, however, Francis announced towards the Superiors General of Catholic women religious that he wanted to form a commission to study the role and task of the early Christian deaconesses. The deaconesses of antiquity had no part in the sacrament of Orders, they were not ordained female deacons. Feminist and progressive Church circles have focused, since Ordinatio Sacerdotalis, increasingly on the "women's diaconate" on the grounds that John Paul II. may have indeed explicitly excluded women priests, but not  women deacons. Of this quibble the defender of the Sacraments spoke: There is only a sacrament of orders, which can not be split.  John Paul II had affirmed what the Church has always taught that the sacrament, no matter at what level, whether deacons, priests or bishops, is reserved for men.

WOW - Part of Radical Feminism

Women's Ordination Worldwide (WOW) is part of the radical feminism, which despite Ordinatio Sacerdotalis adheres to the demand for the female priesthood.The organization is therefore not considered as part of the Catholic Church. Their representatives are excommunicated, ie, excluded from the community of the Church.
Pope Francis celebrated from 1-3  June as part of the proclaimed by him Holy Year of Mercy, the "Jubilee for Priests". 6,000 priests from around the world gathered with the Church leader at the Vatican and conversed with them a retreat.


Radical feminism, rally in Rome in 1975

In parallel,  WOW organized an "anniversary of the priestesses", which occured in "International House of Women" in Trastevere, which would have been completely ignored had it not been for the anti-Church and supercritical activism safely assured it of knee-jerk media attention.
The "International House of Women" is a former monastery that was left vacant in 1987 became occupied by the Movimento femminista Romano   (Roman Feminist Movement). Since 1992 the establishment has been financed by  the Roman city left-governments and other left-governed institutions. Developed in the late 60s, the radical feminist movement demanded and promotes the killing of unborn children and homosexuality.

Consecration Simulations: "priestesses" in St. Peter's Square

Last Friday, some women gathered in front of Castel Sant'Angelo, who claim to have been ordained to as "priestesses". Since women have no part in the sacrament of Holy Orders, they are mere consecration simulations without any validity. From Castel Sant'Angelo, the small group moved to St. Peter's Square, where they initially had his picture taken with protest signs  against the backdrop of the St. Peter's Basilica. Then the women went into hiding in the crowd of faithful who streamed into Saint Peter's Square to participate in the Holy Mass on the anniversary of the priest.
"There are now 200 worldwide priestesses. The majority of them are located in the US," said Christina Moreira for AFP, who claims that she was ordained last year in La Coruña in Spain.
Although the "priestesses" of WOW do not believe that there will be priestesses in the Catholic Church in the foreseeable future, 'they applaud the change in climate  which took place in the Church where it now - as they say - is no longer, as formerly, forbidden is to address such an issue," said AFP.

"Priestesses" and promoters of women priesthood automatically excommunicated

The WOW is one of several groups that call for women's access to the sacrament of orders as deacons, priests and bishops. The requirement goes back to the Church 68 movement. The first organized group was formed in 1975. The organization Roman Catholic Women Priests (RCWP) organized the consecration in 2002 of an ordination simulation of several women by an "independent bishop" whose apostolic succession is as vertiginous as the entire staging of the consecration.
In 2007  the Roman Congregation ruled, with the approval of Pope Benedict XVI., that all are  excommunicated, who attempt to procure the sacrement for a woman, and every woman is excommunicated for attempting to acquire the sacrament. Thus the excommunication applies latae sententiae for comparable organizations like WOW.
The emergence of WOW led to the excommunicated Austrian Christine Mayr-Lumetzberger, a former Benedictine. WOW was founded in 1996 in the "First European Women's Synod" in Gmunden, Upper Austria. The aim of the "ecumenical" organization is the implementation of "women's ordination" in the Catholic Church.
The imitation of the priesthood, the speech is also of mimicry, imitating the followed "Jubilee of Priests". In July WOW wants to take part in  World Youth Day in Krakow itself.

Networking among non-Church and within the church circles

If organizations like RCWP, WOC and WOW are outside the Catholic Church, the transition to the left wing of the Church is not exactly defined. The thinking of these organizations extends into Church circles in no small measure. Proof of this is panel discussion event organized on June 1st  at the "Casa Internazionale delle Donne" for the  20th anniversary of WOW.
Participants were: Tony Flannery, an IRISH redemptorist  suspended from the priesthood, who was condemned by the Vatican for disseminating heresies (abortion, homosexuality, women priests); Dana English, pastor of the Anglican Church in Rome; Jamie Manson, a columnist for the progressive US magazine National Catholic Reporter and Marinella Perroni,  professor of New Testament at the Pontifical Athenaeum of Saint Anselm, the Benedictine University in Rome.


Marinella Perroni, gender theologian at Benedictine University Sant-Anselmo

Marinella Perroni, because of her teaching position at a papal university and other ecclesiastical projects, the only real "Church member" in this round, is convinced feminist and gender theologian. Perroni raves for the "pluralistic world" and for representatives of Marxist liberation theology. She sees gender as the "interpretive key for the historical analysis". Perroni found no words of praise for Benedict XVI.   He had been guilty in her eyes of having "worked forcefully against gender theory" and "designated homosexuals as enemies of peace."  Perroni is a member of the governing body of the abortion favorable Fraueninitiative SNOQ. This woman initiative originated in 2011 in the orbit of the political left against the then Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, whom they accused of "sexism."  SNOQ claimed the killing of unborn children as "women's rights". For the gender Theologian Perroni this was obviously no problem.
In June 2014 was Perroni was speaker at a meeting of the Grand Orient of Italy 's "The Secret Council - Second Vatican and Freemasonry". Perroni belongs to the intellectual milieu of those to whom the faithful and vocation-strong Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate were delivered, who were placed, just like the male religious branch  under the provisional control of the Congregation of Religious.

France Backs Down on Gender Ideology Confrontation --- Philippe Zeller Will Be Ambassador to Vatican

(Paris) France's new ambassador to the Holy See is Philippe Zeller. The appointment was preceded by a lengthy tug of war. Early in 2015 the professing homosexual career diplomat Laurent Stefanini had been appointed by the Socialist government in Paris. This was widely perceived as an open provocation against the Catholic Church and a propaganda campaign for normalizing aberrosexuality.
The Vatican Secretariat of State rejected Stefanini because of his sexual disorder, although the Archbishop of Paris Cardinal André Vingt-Trois, had supported appointment.
Already in 2007, the designated appointment, Frank Eich Kuhn-Delforge had been rejected by the Vatican for his depraved way of life as an ambassador.
In April 2015 , Pope Francis the rejected seeing Stefanini in audience, however, reiterated the no to his accreditation. It is not quite clear whether the rejection was made ​​because of his homosexuality, or because the French government tried to coerce the Vatican ideologically with his person.  Officially, the Vatican never commented on the issue.
Shortly after, France demonstratively confirmed Stefaninis as ambassador to the Holy See. Since the Vatican refused accreditation, Stefanini remained an ambassador without portfolio, as France had to be represented in Rome by an executive diplomat.
Observers have assumed that French President François Hollande would not back down  for reasons of prestige, and the question could be thus be held off until after the presidential election in 2017.
After one year, there has been a turning point. After 18 months of vacancy, the government in Paris has dispensed Stefaninis' appointment as various French media has unanimously reported.  The new  Ambassador to the Holy See is to be the career diplomat Philippe Zeller, who is currently Ambassador of France in Canada.
Zeller, born in 1952, is one of the graduating class "Pierre Mendès France" (1978) of the Ecole Nationale d'Aministration (ENA), which forms the cadre of the French civil service. In the same year he entered the service of the Foreign Ministry. In 2010 he was made ​​an Officer of the Legion of Honor.
Philippe Zeller is married, father of two children and grandfather.

Masonleaks -- Leak of Documents from the Grand Lodge of France

(Paris) The news is startling, and yet the mass media hardly takes notice of it. The data leak was concerned this time not with the US State Department (Wikileaks) and not the Vatican (Vatileaks), but Freemasonry. There is talk of a Masonleaks. The analysis of thousands of secret documents of the lodge will likely take months to complete.
The Grand Lodge of France filed a complaint with the prosecution in Paris against  unknown persons. Hackers cracked the server of the Grand Lodge and were able to gain access to membership lists and internal documents. Several thousand confidential documents of the lodges have already been published on the Internet. The  data leak was made public by the weekly magazine L'Express .
The file containing the confidential boxes of papers was published for first time last April 10 on the website Stop Mensonges published. The site wrote:
 "Revelations about the secret government, which determines the new world order."
It is a data volume of six gigabytes of secret documents. It's about decades of secret rituals, directories, projects, programs, statements,  internal publications, membership applications, thousands of detailed CVs of neophytes who applied for initiation or of which they were granted. We have also found hundreds of criminal records, of which it is suspected  not only that they are adepts, but may serve  information gathering or the exertion of pressure. In addition, copies of identity documents, internal correspondence and those with other Grand Lodges around the world. The daily Le Monde was allowed to inspect the data.

Stop Mensonges - to protect the parties there is no information on the origin of the papers

The mechanics that led to the data leakage is currently unknown. The server of the Grand Lodge announced on April 4, a penetration on April 2 of its Lodge-cloud . Some of the hacked documents are dated April 2016. It's a document that the operation is very recent.
The operator of the website Stop Mensonges has lived in a villa in Las Vegas for years. His only explanation was previously that in order "to protect the people involved," he could not explain how he got to the documents. He refused an interview by the magazine Society  for fear of reprisals.
In the Grand Lodge of France there seems be a mole, a lodge brother who stole the documents. Publicly, the Grand Lodge does not want to comment on the incident. It seems that it is the Internet pirates failed to gain possession of the complete list of the 34,000 members of the Grand Lodge. The names of many lodge brothers seem, however,  to  appear in the cracked documents.

OCLCTIC commenced investigations

As soon as the complaint was filed, the OCLCTIC leapt into action. Behind the unpronounceable acronym is concealed the Office central de lutte contre la criminalité liée aux technologies de l'information et de la communication, founded in 2000, a special branch of the police, which specializes in cybercrime.
The Grand Lodge of France is just one of eight Masonic obediences that are currently active in France. However, it is the second largest behind the Grand Orient of France . According to media reports there had been, after the discovery of data leakage,  hectic contacts between the Grand Lodge and the Interior Ministry and between the Grand Lodge and the other obediences. They apparently fear similar attacks and have increased security mechanisms.
Just how sensational of data leaks and  the explosiveness of all the published secret documents can not yet be estimated. These documents must first be reviewed and analyzed. It's a work that, may take years if not months to complete. "There is probably some explosive information that includes previously unknown contacts and connections with far-reaching political, economic and socio-political consequences at national and international levels. We do not yet know where to start the search," said an employee of Médias Press .

Grand Master of the Grand Orient drew from Simone Veil  - "Abortion is a cornerstone of our society"

Despite the attack, the aproned brothers have, however, not been deterred from their current socio-political causes: abortion and gender ideology.
The Grand Orient of France gave, last April 8, just four days after becoming aware of the data leaks by the "brother"-obedience,  the Marianne de Jacques France award to the 88 year old Simone Veil. It stresses the importance that the Grand Orient attaches to the practice of abortion.  Under Simone Veil's administration as the Minister of Health, the French abortion law, the 1975 Loi Veil was decided. Grandmaster Daniel Keller personally bestowed, in the presence of Senate President Gerard Larcher,  an honor to the coveted figure represented by her two sons, Jean and Pierre-François Veil who received this on her behalf. The figure will "bear witness to the solidarity and the recognition of the Grand Orient by Simone Veil, our sister from the heart".
Keller went straight to the point. He praised Veil's "republican activism," her  "struggle for the emancipation of women," which was a "child of secularism". While  secularism is "the linchpin of the Masonic use".
He also praised the abortion law as "a symbol of the improvement of man and society, in the Masonic work".
Keller added: "This law is a pillar of our society."
"That every day in France, hundreds of children are killed in their mothers' wombs, thus is the pillar of society, because it is wanted by the Masonic sect", says the press agency Médias Press Info .

Does Cardinal Casper Want Women Cardinals? Women Should Have a Say in the Conclave

(Rome) Cardinal Walter Kasper has adopted gender ideology and is calling for the participation of women at the next conclave.
Whether the German cardinal also calls them Cardinalettes, is not clear coming from his remarks.  Anyway, if it were up to him, women would vote as papal electors in the next conclave.
"It is theoretically possible that women participate in the election of a pope. The composition of the group, which is tasked to choose a pope is not the subject of a divine mandate. This thing can change."
The cardinal expressed those words last Monday in Rome at the launch of the new special edition "Maria's Daughters - The Church and Women" by Herder Korrespondenz,  as katholisch.de the news page of the German Bishops' Conference reported.

Opus Dei Archbishop Makes Big Concession to Gender Ideology

Edit: the age of Mahony, alas, is still very much with us, despite the appointment of a Neoconservative Opus Dei Bishop. As if the liturgy and music weren't ugly enough. Is a Cardinal's hat from Pope Bergoglio really worth the loss of your immortal soul? Here's the video from Joseph Sciambra.

Pope Bergoglio Praises Feminist Marxism in "Amoris Laetitia"

Francis "Amoris laetitia": "remarkable improvements in the recognition of women's rights". He criticized female genital mutilation, violence against women, surrogacy etc. - Significance of the man in the family

 Vatican (kath.net) Pope Francis writes in "Amoris laetitia:" In this brief look at the reality, I would like to emphasize that while there have been notable improvements in the recognition of women and their participation in the public area of ​​rights, there is still much that needs work in some countries. The eradication of unacceptable practices are not yet managed.

I point to the shameful violence that is sometimes perpetrated against women, the abuse in the family and various forms of slavery, which are not a proof of male power, but a cowardly loss of dignity. The verbal, physical and sexual violence, which is perpetrated in some marriages against women, contradicts the nature of the conjugal union. I think of the terrible genital mutilation of women in some cultures, but also of the inequality in access to decent jobs and decision-making positions. The history bears the marks of the excesses of patriarchal cultures where the woman was considered of secondary importance, but we mus also recall surrogacy or "the exploitation and commercialization of the female body in contemporary media culture."

Some think many current problems have occurred since the emancipation of women. "But even that is not a valid argument. It is wrong, it is not true! It is a form of chauvinism. "The identical dignity of man and woman is a cause of joy to us that old forms of discrimination have been overcome and developed in the families as a practice of reciprocity.

If forms of feminism have arisen that we may not consider appropriate, we admire nevertheless in the clearer recognition of the dignity of women and their rights, a work of the Spirit. [See Femen, No Fault Divorce and the influence of the Nanny State on the family.] The man "plays a particularly important role in the life of the family, particularly with regard to the protection and support of his wife and the children [...] Many men are aware of the importance of their role in the family and fill it with their male spirit. [Only when he's allowed to.]

The absence of the father from the life of the family, deprives the education of children and severely affects their integration in the society. It may be a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual absence. This lack brings the children to an adequate model paternal behavior "(Amoris laetitia 54-55).

Marquette Professor Being Fired for Being Catholic

Edit: the faculty advisors of an allegedly Catholic University have voted unanimously to suspend the last Catholic faculty member on their staff without pay starting on April 1st and subsequently expect him to admit he was doing wrong in defending the Catholic Faith at a Catholic University as one of several humiliating conditions for reinstatement.

The announcement was sent to him on Holy Thursday. Very fitting and a great way to compassionate his Savior, but this  injustice, this evil is surely enough to fool even the elect. 

We live in terrible times and it seems they will get worse. What a wonderful thing it is to be persecuted for His sake but we pray for this courageous man's relief and the good of his family as these Bolscheviks divide his garments among them...

[Marquette Warrior] It was announced Thursday,  which was (doubtless intentionally) the eve of the Good Friday holiday, and in the middle of March Madness. Marquette has decided how to punish this blogger for a post that revealed how an instructor in the Philosophy Department bullied a student who wanted to express his opposition to gay marriage in class. He was told “you don’t have a right in this class to make homophobic comments,” and further that it would be “offensive” to any gay students in the class if any such opinion was expressed. 

Marquette reacted by telling us we would be stripped of tenure and fired

"Compromise" for "Gay Marriage" With Ecclesiastical Endorsement

Bishop Galatino
Edit: it looks like aberromarriage is going to become legitimate under Italian law soon, thanks to the complicity of the Pope.

(Rome) Vladimir Palko has documented the decline of Western Christian Democracy in his book, "The Lions Come Why Europe and America are heading for a new tyranny."  In Italy a new chapter has been written in this book. It  even documents more.

"Gay marriage": The Cirinnà Bill

The Italian Parliament has been discussing heatedly for a month the bill legalizing "gay marriage" and adoption rights for homosexuals. The bill bears the name of its originator Monica Cirinnà, a left democratic senator. On January 30 for Family Day, two million Italians met in Rome met at the Circus Maximus  The resistance is supported mainly by the Catholic families who see in the draft an attack on the family, children and the natural basis of the state.
The support of the Catholic Church has clearly fallen short. A part of the episcopate, led by Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco, archbishop of Genoa and president of the Italian Episcopal Conference, stood firmly on the side of the Family Day . The Secretary-General of the same Episcopal Conference, Bishop Nunzio Galatino, however, tried to prevent this and even distanced himself from Cardinal Bagnasco.

Lourdes Rector Encourages Moral Depravity

Edit: Andre Cabes, the rector of the shrine insists that Lourdes is a place of "encounter", but it doesn't matter to him that these are illicit and scandalous encounters in an open endorsement for gender ideology. This from the Telegraph:

[Telegraph] Married or not, straight or gay, you and your sweetheart will be welcome in Lourdes for Valentine's Day, officials announced on Friday.

"Come to Lourdes to say I love you," beckons a flyer put out by the Lourdes diocese, touting a "couples weekend" as part of efforts to boost dwindling visitor numbers.

Cowardly Archbishop Endorses Gender Ideology

[Tablet] Archbishop Denis Hart of Melbourne has urged Catholic schools to be sensitive and respectful to students who wish to bring a same-sex date to school formal events.

The Age newspaper in Melbourne reported on 22 January about a previously unreported case at the oldest girls’ secondary college in Victoria, the Academy of Mary Immaculate in Fitzroy, where a student started an online petition after she was told by the co-ordinator for Year 12 (the final year of secondary school) that she couldn't bring a female partner to the school formal.

In response to questions from the paper, Archbishop Hart said: "These are quite often emotional situations and it's very important that we always have respect for the dignity of the human being involved.

"Gay Marriage": Bishops Uncertain About Pope's Course -- Which Led to Defeat in Argentina in 2010

(Rome) The Family Day, which is the planned demonstration for the 30th of January, organized by the Italian Manif pour tous, and the Pope's attitude about it, has set off a battle royal in the Italian Bishops' Conference -- between its President Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco and the General Secretary Bishop Nunzio Galantino.  Additionally it's still being discussed in Argentina to this day whether Jorge Mario Bergoglio, had favored the introduction of "gay marriage"  when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires and Primate of Argentina in 2010.
The president  of the Italian Episcopal Conference is automatically the pope as Bishop of Rome. However, he appointed as representative  both a delegated President [He was voted in by a majority vote, which was then considered a snub to the pope.] as well as the Secretary-General. Cardinal Bagnasco was acquired by Pope Francis from his predecessor. Bishop Galatino, however, was introduced by him and is considered a "man of the pope". On the first Family Day, on June 20, 2015   a million people took part to protest against the introduction of "gay marriage" and against the gender ideology in schools.  Now the debate begins in Parliament, which is the reason for a second Family Day, to tell the representatives of the people what the Catholics and other people of good will do not want.

Like a Boss: Honduran Cardinal Confirms Sodolobby in Vatican

Update: on second glance, this is starting to look suspiciously like an admission of guilt without any remediation.

Edit: as if to lend a further boost of credence to Voris' recent charge. Knowing is half the battle!

[NCR] Cardinal Oscar Rodriguez Maradiaga has confirmed the presence of a homosexual “lobby” in the Vatican and revealed that Pope Francis is trying “little by little to purify it.”

The Honduran Archbishop of Tegucigalpa, who coordinates the Council of Nine cardinals advising the Pope on reform of the Roman Curia and Church governance, was responding to a question from a Honduran newspaper reporter who asked him whether there had been “an attempt to infiltrate the gay community in the Vatican, or a moment when that had actually happened?”

Cardinal Rodriguez replied: “Not only that, also the Pope has said there is even a ‘lobby’ in this sense. Little by little the Pope is trying to purify it.” He added: “One can understand them [members of the lobby] and there is pastoral legislation to attend to them, but what is wrong cannot be truth.”

The Slovenian People Resoundingly Reject Aberromarriage

In Slovenia, citizens have rejected same-sex marriage  - and declared themselves against the equality of homosexuals.  Opponents of the law received, according to the State Election Commission, more than the legally required number of 342,000 votes.


The Slovenian parliament had allowed same-sex couples  the right to marry and adopt children nine months ago. The conservative opposition and the Catholic Church had then forced the vote. The vote was also declared by them as a vote of no confidence against the government of Miro Cerar, who proposed permits for marriages of homosexuals.
Church and opposition groups rejected the law because it threatens traditional values ​​in their view. Opponents argue that only a relationship between man and woman could give children a happy upbringing.

Cardinal Dolan Takes Pope's Cue to Promote Gender Ideology

Edit: Cardinal Dolan is a little too eager to win acceptance for an unholy manner of life.
 Recently, the Cardinal was caught covering for one of his fellows, and being cavalier about the faithful laitys' complaints against a reprobate priest who was apparently thieving from church funds to pay for debauchery and wickedness for about a decade. 
Complaints by the laity are finally being heard and it looks like the Archdiocese, if not Dolan himself, is being blackmailed by the priest in question, because he witness a child being sexually abused. There's a lot more to this.
As ChurchMilitant observes, Dolan is more than eager to fire and reprimand those who are either traditional, or concerned about what's going on in his diocese.
Clearly, he should resign.
His support for gender ideology is reaching the international press:
Pope Francis says the issue of gay marriage should be studied and not dismissed out-of-hand, a senior Roman Catholic cardinal has revealed. 
Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the outspoken archbishop of New York, said Pope Francis had told him: “Rather than quickly condemn them, let's just ask the questions as to why that has appealed to certain people." 
Archbishop Dolan stressed that the Pope had not shifted the Catholic Church’s position on same-sex unions.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/italy/10688421/Pope-says-Catholic-Church-should-not-dismiss-gay-marriage.html

Cardinal Dolan must resign.

The Martyrs of Uganda Died Because They Resisted the Aberrosexual Desires of Their King

Charles Lwanga and Companions
(Kampala) On Saturday, 28 November Pope Francis  visited Namugongo in Uganda. At 8:30, he  visited the memorial of the Anglican martyrs and at 9 o'clock the memorial of the Catholic martyrs. There he will conclude with the celebration of the Mass. In Namugongo, Charles Lwanga and other pages at the court of the Kabaka, king of Buganda were burned alive because of their Christian faith  on 3 June 1886.  In 1887 a total of 32 Christians were executed at the royal court in fourteen months between late and early 1885. 22 of them were Catholics, as well as Charles Lwanga.
The martyrs of Uganda were beatified  by Pope Benedict XV in 1920. In 1964 they were canonized by  Pope Paul VI.  on and June 3, has since been the Memorial of St. Charles Lwanga and his Companions.
The visit to Namugongo occupies a central place for the  visit to Uganda. There the Pope will celebrate his only public Mass in this East African country.

The Martyrdom of Charles Lwanga and Companions for Their Faith and Chastity

The visit is not without its explosiveness. Uganda has been widely criticized in the recent past because of the very different paths it took in matters of homosexuality, abortion, contraception and AIDS, than the West with its customary   abortion and contraceptive mentality.  The events in Namugongo have to do with homosexuality, and thus with AIDS and prevention,  and are therefore of particular relevance. But  hardly anyone knows  that in Europe.
To learn why Charles Lwanga and the other Christians found such a cruel death, you have to read the Roman martyrology. Charles Lwanga came, like his companions, from  the Bagandian nobility. The young noble sons were part of the entourage of the king, whom they served. The King of Buganda was then Mwanga II. While Charles Lwanga and other young nobles were baptized and followed Christ the King with great zeal his ear was lent in contrast to the  Islamic emissaries trying push back the growing Christian influence by the persecution of Christians, of Catholics and Anglicans.

Polygamy, Homosexuality and Islam

The reasons were not only political (influence by British, German and Arab, Anglicans, Catholics and Muslims), but also moral. The Roman martyrology speaks of the "obscene demands" of the king. This refers to homosexual desires of the then 20th Kabaka (king). These desires  were rejected by Christians at his court. Mwanga II. put them to death for it.
The highlight of this persecution was on June 3, the burning of Charles Lwanga and twelve companions in Namugongo, where a church was built in their memory. The Muslim advisor at the king's court had fewer problems with the way of life of the king. This was officially mainly for polygamy, who paid homage to the Kabaka of Buganda. The Christian understanding of marital monogamy was a serious cultural break with political implications. Due to the numerous women of Kabaka the various tribes of Baganda had share in the kingship. Polygamy was the matriarchal element of the unwritten constitution that secured kingship of all the tribes on a rotating basis. Islam, which permits polygamy, came to meet these political needs. This was also unofficially more congenial for the tyrannical King's homosexual desires, who desired to demonstrate  his power in the sense of  the sexual domination of men and women.
The Kabaka was overthrown later, was baptized Anglican, and returned with the British to power, but was soon overthrown again  in a joint action by the British and tribal superiors and died in 1903 in British exile in the Seychelles.

At the 117th anniversary of the Martyrdom the CDF Took a Position in  2003 on Homsexuality

It was no accident that the CDF, with the signature of its then prefect Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, precisely on June 3, 2003, published the document "Considerations Regarding Proposals of Legal Recognition for Unions Between Homosexual Persons."  It was a document on an issue that is one of the most controversial of our time. On this subject, the Catholic Church was exposed to massive external, but also internal pressure.
In the "Considerations"  the CDF states initially on marriage:
"The Church teaches that Christian marriage is an effective sign of the covenant between Christ and the Church (cf. Eph. 5:32). This Christian meaning of marriage, far from diminishing the profoundly human value of the marital union of man and woman, confirms and strengthens it (cf. Mt from 19:3-12. Mk 10:6-9). "
And then about homosexual relationships:
"There are absolutely no grounds to establish analogies between homosexual unions and God's plan over marriage and the family, not even in a broader sense. Marriage is holy, while homosexual acts go against the natural moral law. [...] They  are not  to be approved in any case.
Homosexual relationships are condemned in Scripture as a serious depravity ... (cf. Rom 1:24- 27;. 1 Cor 6,10; 1 Tim 1:10). This judgment of Scripture does not allow the conclusion that all those who suffer from this anomaly are personally responsible, but testifies that homosexual acts are not in themselves in order. This moral judgment is found in many Christian writers of the first centuries, and was unanimously accepted by Catholic Tradition. "

Homosexual acts "Cry Out to  in Heaven for Vengeance"

Homosexual relationships are among the four deadly sins or  sins "outrageous", as the Catechism of Pope John Paul II. Is, or sins "crying out to  heaven for vengeance", as it says in the Catechism of St. Pius X.
Today there are in the Catholic Church, at least that of the so-called West, a tendency to simply suppress this part of Catholic doctrine. The one part is no longer talks about it and thus escapes further criticism from without the church further and homosexuals. Another part adopts the position of the secular world and the homosexuals. Parallel to this is homosexuality, including its branches, of pedophilia and ephebophilia, which have become an internal problem of the Church.

Ambiguous Signals from Pope Francis on Homosexuality

Pope Francis has so far sent out mixed signals  in terms of homosexuality. On the one hand he severely criticized the gender theory several times.  On April 15, 2015, he  wondered at the general audience "whether the so-called gender theory is not an expression of frustration and resignation, which aims at the eradication of sexual difference, because they no longer understand, to confront it. We risk here, to take a step backwards. The displacement of the differences is the problem, not the solution."  Earlier this year, said the Pope in Manila of "a new ideological colonization, the attempt to destroy the family." Specifically, he criticized the international institutions that bind financial loans for States for the introduction of "gay marriage".
On the other hand, he  also made the famous-infamous phrase of his pontificate: "Who am I to judge?"  It's a sentence that has been widely abused by homosexual and homophilic circles to justify homosexuality and the legalization of "gay rights". Although this use of the sentence has not escaped the Vatican, it has not been corrected by Pope Francis. At least not in a sufficiently understandable and clarifying extent because  the abuse continues.
Homosexual organizations introduce King Mwanga II. as an example that homosexuality also belongs "to Africa". The example of martyrdom for the purity of Charles Lwanga and his companions was an important factor in the successful fight against AIDS by the Ugandan government. To the western contraceptive mentality, the government opposed in collaboration with the Christian churches chastity and continence. In the late 1980s nearly 30 percent of the population were infected with HIV, while their number fell in 2004 to 6 percent. The successful method is liked neither by the UN population experts nor the abortion lobby or the Western media, which is why very little was known internationally about the "miracle on Lake Victoria" in the fight against AIDS.

No Place is More Appropriate than Namugongo to Speak a Word of Clarification on Homosexuality

No site would be more appropriate than Namugongo with the grave of Saint Charles Lwanga and his companions, who suffered martyrdom because of the defense of their chastity, to speak a word of clarification on homosexuality and to raise his voice for the whole world to hear. It's a subject that should be made a "priority" of world politics in  circles external to the Church. Above all, it would be the appropriate place to correct that controversial sentence that weighs on this pontificate and on the whole Church since the return flight from Rio de Janeiro in late July 2013: "Who am I to judge?"
