In his autobiography Before Night Falls, Reinaldo Arenas recounts that then-Monsignor Jaime Ortega was "always surrounded by the prettiest altar boys," which, of course, is code for, well, an idiot would know what it's code for. Arenas, who had known Ortega since the days when both were inmates of the UMAP concentration camps, where homosexuals were sent for "orientational reprogramming" by Castro, was certainly in a position to opine about Ortega's "peccadillos." Apparently, the "reprogramming" didn't work for either Arenas or Ortega.
Prelates like Ortega, now cardinal-archbishop of Havana and primate of Cuba, are a hellsent bonanza for Communist regimes. Blackmailing them is, literally, child's play. The regime secretly videotapes their predations, sometimes clandestinely furnishing the victims. Then the predators are confronted with a choice: exposure or compliance. Needless to say what is the universal preference. It little matters to them whether they are soldiers of Christ or soldiers of the regime. In fact they can be both with no real or perceived conflicts of interest, such is the malleability of evil.
The personal debt which these wayward clerics owe to the regime is also an obligation upon the Vatican and the basis for its secret concordat with Communist Cuba. The pope and his surrogates praise the Castro regime and conjoin the faithful to remain its faithful slaves (this has been the historic mission of the Catholic Church anyway). Castro, in exchange for the Church's support, silences any and all sexual abuse complaints against the local clergy. The Church's coffers will never be depleted by billion dollar settlements to its victims in Cuba and its "prestige" will remain intact because Communist Cuba's official media will never air (and have never aired) its scandals, that is, so long as Ortega and his accomplices do not violate that concordat by challenging the Communist regime in any way.
But these cretins go the distance in their own protection. Not only don't they challenge the regime, but they exculpate, defend and even bless its leaders.

MaT
this sounds like quite a little pact with the devil . . .
What is your take on the Pope Benedict's apologies this week?
ms. calabaza:
The pope is truly sorry that the priests got caught.
As Bill Maher remarked on cable, if the pope were the CEO of a corporation whose employees had sexually abused thousands of children, he wouldn't be apologizing. He would have already submitted his resignation or been booted by the stockholders.
Fantomas,
are you obsessed with Nambla and why?
And suddenly some dirty secret was pulled out of his closet..hahahaha
He likes skittles...
After all, who should know if not you?
Pope Benedict XVI in his own words
ON CHURCH SEX ABUSE CASES
In the Church, priests also are sinners. But I am personally convinced that the constant presence in the press of the sins of Catholic priests, especially in the United States, is a planned campaign, as the percentage of these offences among priests is not higher than in other categories, and perhaps it is even lower.
Quoted in Zenit.org, December 2002
fantomas:
Your comments where you actually provide the URL for NAMBLA have been removed to The Madhouse. Try that again and you will be permanently confined there.
Publicizing a website like NAMBLA's is no different from condoning the sexual abuse of children.
Shame on you.
Fantomas:
Now, mind you, this is not a competition, sorry to inform you. I only challenge people who are on my level.Not "instigators"
Spell Check Enrique are you using your Translator correctly?
Wasting Time is a Full Time Job for Enrique Rubia,oh oops Rubio.
Fantomas,
in an earlier post, you stated that MaT was "the lowest of scum". If you feel this way, why do you feel the need to stay in daily touch with him. Do you feel at home in the dirt?
Alex:
A very good quotation. It should be thrown in Benedict's face everywhere that he goes to peddle his bogus apology.
The NBA is also an all-male organization. Its members make no pretense of suppressing their sexuality, nor are they compelled to.
Yet I have never heard of even one case of an NBA player sexually abusing a boy although they certainly have greater access to them than do priests.
No, there is a distinctive pathology in the Catholic Church which exists in no other institution. Till the pope admits and addresses that fact, the Church's crimes upon children will continue unabated.
Mat estoy en favor que saquen a los mas grandes abusadores del Vaticano empezando por el de boston que fue reasignadopor el propio papa a italia
una vez botados para siempre de la iglesia dos o tres de los mas famosos depredadores de niños esto traera una comnmocion grandisima entre los peers y quizas quizas las cosas mejoren..
Fantomas:
I think it's a shame that you have to hide your sexual orientation.But one of these days you will get past this dramatic path. Let people alone. You want to be out, be out. You don't, that's fine too.
fantomas:
Things will only improve in the Church when celibacy is abolished and normal men are allowed to join the priesthood.

palabras sabias , y te falto decir
ALLOW WOMEN TO BE PRIESTS
Alex cuando usted vea que Mat y yo estamos debatiendo intelectualmente usted por favor se calla y escuche. sus ataques infantiloides solo reflejan la razon de su propia louzy existencia
intelectualmente! hahaha
Oh, yes Maybe Manuel is the intellect one but you that's a joke.Remember Translation sites does not make you smart.
fantomas:
There are already female religious in the Catholic Church. They are called nuns.
Women cannot be priests because Christ did not call women to the priesthood.
Nowhere in the Bible, however, does Christ say that priests should be celibate.
MaT,
Check this out:

No te creas Mat hay un gran movimiento de mujeres catolicas que estan listas para tomar esa posicion
Ademas si te das cuenta Mat la mayoria de las otras religiones si tienen mujeres al frente .
Sabias que la iglesia catolica ha perdido en los ultimos años un 34% de sus miembros females
Todas mujeres, que van en busca del mensaje del credor en otros lares
Louzy? Louzy is a village and commune in the Deux-Sèvres département of western France.
You mean: Lousy

Women cannot be priests because Christ did not call women to the priesthood.

Oh, okay ;)wink, wink:) fantomas:
Translation 101 is your buddy:
You don't know English grammar and can't pronounce English words correctly.Please, enrique you can't fool me.
Ok, Mr.Translator
I was born and raised here in the good ole USA.
Yes, my spanish is rusty but I do comprended very well.
“You speak bad English,” I heard you speak such a bad English.I was confuse for a week...hahahaha
Thank god for translation site,right..enrique!
You have the freedom to use them.Enrique is okay,buddy...;)wink
fantomas:
When was the last time you did anything for Cuba?
Well, let see KC gave me a link on his blog about computer parts to send to cuba.And other stuff. I don't vaunt about my charity work. Like you Enrique Rubio
And to shed some more light your way, because you are obviously lost and your ignorance will not allow you to understand.(Hint) "Loose lips sink ships"
Great site you got here, MAT. Love what you've done with the place.
Father Riley's a fairy, but it don't bother Mary...
noone:
Above all it's an airy place, not stuffy with the stench of murdered ideas which pervades certain precincts of the Cuban-American blogosphere.
Hey, don't get me wrong. I don't want you to change a thing. I was just wondering out loud how much you can stand this place reeking from some other stench. In the end I agree that it may be a small price to pay, but sometimes I feel for you having to see so many come here and soil themselves.
I thought your post was an excellent one. And I counted exactly two comments on point. The rest is "I know you are but what am I?" It is not what I hope for you. Perhaps after the Baba-tanic sinks things may reach a reasonable median.
I see the anonymi come and tell you the same thing, but I don't think their intentions are pure.
I hope you know that I'm being sincere.
NOTE:
Fantomas removed today a dozen or more comments, most of these consisting of an exchange with Alex about whether fantomas requires a translation program to communicate in English. On the one hand we regret the loss of these comments, on the other we don't.
Fantomas:
The so called priesthood has nothing to do with Christ, for he did not invent the Catholic Churh, the Church was thought of by man who set their own rules, and deviated as far as possible from the teachings of Christ.
noone:
Things tend to resolve themselves on this blog without much intervention on my part. Fantomas, of his own volition, has removed many of the comments which you cited as not being germane to this discussion. Of course, I don't expect all comments to be germane. If they are not offensive it's good enough for me.
noone
tenemos que mantener the sanity on this blog.
in other words the quality of the comments should remain top notch
los que no sirvan , pal laton de basura...pa BFI adonde vive Fariñas
Manuel:
What else can we expect from the regime, the fact that they keep priests on their side by hiding their pedophilia while allowing predation on the Cuban youth is wicked and hearbreaking, to me one of the worst crimes one can commit against a child.
que importa si Fantomas uses a translation program to move from Spanish into english? Yo uso una para hacer translation between english and Italian...
Manuel:
He's back, for round 7, and I'm imaginary don't you know!!
Does anybody take this pope seriously. A guy wearing a dress and custom made red shoes, talking about pedophelia.
This pope has the NERVE to lecture the rest of the world about morals or the new modern sin. Yeah ok Bennie, i ain't buying it! He Kind reminds me of Michael Jackson
Vana,
it's not henry who's back. That was George.
Henry is back....see thread for round 6
Manny,
I have lurked here a long time. I would like to tell you what i belive is happening. You are being attacked by people that want to disparage this blog. When you write a serious post you are hijacked by Fantomas who is here to disrupt. Alex, seems like a nice guy but he humors Fantomas by answering him. Alex, please just ignore him because you are giving Fantomas and Babalu exactly what they want. I guarantee you that henry, val and a few other babalusians are the anonymi creating chaos but of course in front of those they respect such as John Thomas Roche or Sr. Cohiba they play the victims of RCAB.
Manny, Henry and Val are playing the victims in front of Babalu and their high-minded friends. What their friends do not know is that they are the ones causing disruption here. This last slap at you was definitely in the style of George though.
Manny, don't let them do this to you. All this is a diversion to make everyone forget about Val's actions against Killcastro a few weeks ago. Don't let them get to you.
An admirer who knows the enemy.
Anonymous:
I appreciate what you are saying and agree that the Babalunians do not miss an opportunity to disrupt the proceedings at RCAB. Democracy can be abused because its freedoms are accorded to all alike even those who are unfit to exercise them or are vent on their destruction. There is nothing that I can do about this but allow the marketplace of ideas to sort out and dismiss their inanities. As for Roche and Pancier, they are not fair judges of anything but just more stragglers on Babalú's broken bandwagon.
No one who is a friend of Babalú (that is, a friend of censorship and tyranny) can be called "high-minded" and their opinions do not concern me in the least. There is a great serenity that comes from knowing not only that one is right but that one is smarter than one's adversaries.
P.S.:
Fantomas and Alex H. have been going at it since the beginning of this blog. Don't sweat it. I don't.
Good to hear it. I was concerned that you've been attacked by them lately in a more organized/planned manner. Hang in there. They really want you to go away.
2humid:
Love the pic!
2Humid:
Are you trying a little reverse psychology on manuel...Your ability to convince manuel about a Blog Hijack is retard.If you are waiting for manuel to take what you were offering, you are going to have a long wait.
I love this blog is a Wake-up call for Assholes like you and Val and Henry.
No one lives in a vacuum. Don't try Putting yourself in the shoes of those who know the truth about Babalu ideologies and next time
speak directly to the person not indirectly be a man.
