French Catholic leaders mired in sexual abuse scandals dig themselves deeper

French Catholic leaders mired in sexual abuse scandals dig themselves deeper

Like any modern Catholic official, Archbishop Éric de Moulins-Beaufort, president of France’s Catholic bishops’ conference, realises clergy sexual abuse is a systemic problem, one that calls for serious reform of the church’s uncertain rules and ingrained secrecy. But recent revelations of sexual misconduct by a cardinal and a bishop on Moulins-Beaufort’s watch show how complicated,…

New Vocabulary

Dicastère aka Dicastery: a law court that manages offences signalled within the Catholic Church. Formerly called The Inquisition. About as useful as an internal investigation by law enforcement after misconduct. The highest judgment they can pass is excommunication.

The Vatican had a special dicastery for delicta graviora (grave offenses - yikes they’ve lumped this in with women’s ordination), it was merged with the “dicastery for doctrine and faith” in 2022.

It’s not visible on the English language page but on the French page Bishop/Cardinal Ricard is listed one of the 12 leaders: he’s an admitted child molester.

At least 3% of clergy in France had committed sexual violence according to independent reviews in 2021.

------------------------------------

Never trust internal affairs or HR or whatever “justice and transparency” group your church, uni or association has set up to report bad behaviour: go to the police AND advocacy groups, the police aren’t great but they’ll at least file the paperwork.

This holiday season, remember to donate to charity or to people in need directly: do not pass via a church, do not tithe to a church: your money is not going to those who need it. These are not bad apples, this is not a “bad denomination” issue: the rot is built into the hierarchies and the idea that you can get justice from internal groups whose job is to protect the group.

Catholic in Protest

Not for the first time, scandal comes to the Catholic Church.  French cardinal Jean-Pierre Ricard has admitted to the rape of a child 35 years ago in what is the latest in a cavalcade  of  abuses. It is clear now more than ever that much of Church authority has little interest in actually cleaning up the clergy. So for the Catholic who stays, how do we live our faith? I am but a poor layman, but I offer these options.

1. Be Not Silent

It feels, for me and for many, that complaining does nothing, but despite the ecclesiastical authority of the Church, there are millions more laymen than there are clergy. Report abuse, do not believe people who tell you that by defaming clergy you anger God. Even if pressured to stop, stay the course. Call your parish, call your diocese, call your conference of bishops. Pressure clergy to behave as godly leaders.

2. Be a Safe Haven For Those Abused

The victims of this abuse may have any number of feelings about the Church. They may blame themselves , they may feel they failed, they may be enraged against the Church and wish it destroyed or want nothing to do with it. See to their needs where you can. If you can help them receive medical or psychiatric care or otherwise see to their needs, do so. Do not defend the Church, merely let them know that YOU care for them, and love them as God does.

3. Practice the Beatitudes

Prisons  are overflowing and abusive, the sick are dying, the hungry are starving, and homeless lack shelter.  Women, people of color, people of  marginalized groups like Jewish people, and the LGBTQ+ are targets of grave cruelty. Government and an ineffective clergy seek no change, so we must. As the hands and feet of Christ we are to render aid where possible and do as much to press our governments and clergy into effective service as possible, by letter, by public address, by protest, by calculated resistance in all things. Jesus flipped tables and caused a ruckus in defense of the poor and disenfranchised. So should we.

4. Avail Yourselves of the Graces of the Sacraments

People will tell you that by not being in lockstep with hatred and bigotry, by being LGBTQ+ or liberal/leftist, by caring about all people and not strictly the unborn that you aren’t or cannot be Catholic. Those people are delusional. The indelible mark of baptism does not come off. After you have done everything tangibly to help those in need, avail yourself of Mass, of Confession, of the Anointing of the Sick, of the Eucharist. Be in prayer in whatever way seems best to you. Above all else, remember that God so loved the world and all the downtrodden, and so should we. Peace be to You

ALBUM REVIEW: Ghost – Impera

As one cycle ends, another begins. The flamboyant, dancing Cardinal Copia has been anointed Papa Emeritus IV and the plague-ridden doom of the 14th century is gone. Taking place hundreds of years after Prequelle, Tobias Forge and his band of Nameless Ghouls, otherwise known as psychedelic doom rock popsters Ghost, leave the rats behind as latest chapter Impera (Spinefarm/Loma Vista) tells of new empires built from the ashes of the old.

After the methodically layered instrumental ‘Imperium’ finishes setting the scene, the real fun begins with Impera‘s true opener, ‘Kaisarion’. Bright and optimistic, and not too far removed from legendary Canadian prog gods Rush, lyrics such as “far away from the stench of the heavens” prove we’re still in reassuringly dark territory. Propelled by keyboards which owe some level of debt to Bon Jovi‘s ‘Runaway’, ‘Spillways’ (run-offs which stop dams from overflowing – but in this case meaning something that allows the darkness inside us to find an escape) boasts the first of many instantly uplifting choruses.

Taking a more sinister turn, ‘Call Me Little Sunshine’ could be a blood relative to ‘Cirice’ as the Devil speaks to children through their computers, while ‘Hunter’s Moon’ (used recently for horror sequel Halloween Kills) is a paean to classic horror consistent with the record’s overarching theme – in this case the empire of childhood. ‘Watcher in the Sky’ quickly brightens the proceedings again, sweeping determinedly forwards with weighty riffs and another memorably ebullient chorus.

Like something composer Wendy Carlos could have written for The Shining or A Clockwork Orange, the darkly majestic segue of ‘Dominion’ takes us away from the industrial imagery of Zbigniew Bielak‘s magnificent cover art and into the outside world before the band deliver arguably their most bonkers and potentially divisive cut to date. After a bombastic orchestral opening, the brazenly irreverent stomp of ‘Twenties’ finds Forge sneering and rasping his way through something possibly best described as Satanic Reggaeton. There’s simply no other way to get away with lines like, “we’ll be grabbing them all by the hoo-ha” than with a wink and a cheeky smile.

Striking a more serious and contemplative tone, ‘Darkness At the Heart of My Love’ is about people who fake piety in order to further themselves while ‘Griftwood’ continues that theme using a Van Halen style riff, a glorious ’80s bounce similar to Prequelle‘s ‘Dance Macabre’, and former US Vice President Mike Pence as inspiration. After the brief segue of ‘Bite of Passage’ the album climaxes with the Victorian gothic of ‘Respite on the Spitalfields’. Based on the story of infamous murderer Jack the Ripper, the laid back but mischievous closer leans on everything from Alice Cooper and Nightwish to a string section reminiscent of ‘Still of the Night’ by Whitesnake and stands as arguably the most accomplished finale the band have recorded to date.

Ignoring pleas for more of Prequelle‘s unexpected saxophone, Forge resists the temptation to repeat himself this time, choosing to explore other avenues of playful extravagance instead. Guest musicians, pianist Martin Hederos, drummer Ricard ‘Hux’ Nettermalm and guitarist Fredrik Åkesson of Opeth help balance the warped Abba style melodies against classic rock influences such as Queen, Pink Floyd and Rush. Certain cuts might require a few spins but never take long to work their magic, and previously released songs are improved simply by being placed into their proper context.

For those who prefer their Satanic messages to be roared, croaked and shrieked across a howling void against a backdrop of buzzing guitars and relentless blastbeats, once again, Ghost most definitely remains None Of Your Business. Not that this warning will deter the internet, of course, where just a single mention of the band’s name is usually more than enough to trigger an immediate Pavlovian response from hordes of opinionated gatekeepers salivating furiously over their Caps Lock buttons. But the mere fact that Ghost keeps coming back, bigger and stronger each time simply proves one thing: the angrier the haters, the wider Papa’s grin.

Flirtatiously progressive but comfortingly familiar, Impera slithers between creeping cynicism, leering malevolence and joyful exultation. Often surprising but never disappointing, Ghost’s new empire has risen.
