Diocese fires priest who was whistleblower on corrupt homosexual clergy

Diocese fires priest who was whistleblower on corrupt homosexual clergy...

"I will not stand for My priests who condone homosexuality and allow it in My priesthood! I will not stand for My priests who allow the murder of the unborn with their permissiveness! I will not stand by and allow My priesthood to be destroyed!" - Jesus, June 18, 1982

LifeSiteNews.com reported on April 12, 2006:

Rev. John Nesbella of Prince of Peace parish in Northern Cambria, Pa., a crusader against homosexuality in the priesthood, has announced that he is resigning the Roman Catholic priesthood.

“This is the end of a sad tale of how wicked so-called Catholic priests and bishops drove me and a few other priests out because we dared to speak up about the corrupt brotherhood of homosexuals in the priesthood,” Nesbella told The Tribune-Democrat of Johnstown.

Nesbella had been suspended from his priestly duties for the last year in response to his work exposing the problem of homosexuality in the priesthood. The Tribune-Democrat reports that he received “venomous” mail from fellow priests for his work.

He said he discovered the problem of homosexuals entering the priesthood while he was in the seminary for the Altoona-Johnstown diocese. “It was very open. It was scandalous,” he said. “I thought maybe it's just that way here, but I later found it was the church's No. 1 problem, but also the No. 1 thing that you do not speak against.”

“I've been basically fired,” Nesbella said. “I am being punished for reporting sexual abuse.”

In his letter to Nesbella, Bishop Joseph Adamec wrote that a lawsuit the priest had brought against the diocese for alleged sexual abuse by a priest while Nesbella was in high school represented a conflict of interest.

“Your public expression of intention to litigate against your own diocesan church and its bishop in civil court would lead to confusion among the majority of the faithful, if you were to remain in active service," Adamec wrote in a March 10 letter to Nesbella. The bishop said he would discuss the possibility of Nesbella returning to active ministry once the situation had been resolved.

But Nesbella is calling it quits. The diocese maintains that Nesbella’s decision to quit had nothing to do with his work against homosexuality. Nesbella told the Tribune-Democrat that he may consider joining an Eastern rite Church.

In the last few years, Nesbella clashed with the diocese for his work opposing homosexuality including a campaign to distribute a pamphlet detailing the medical dangers and consequences of homosexual activity. In his mailings, Nesbella asked Catholics to support a federal amendment to retain the legal definition of marriage as being between one man and one woman.

The diocese of Altoona-Johnstown ordered him to cease distributing the pamphlet on the grounds that it “borders on the pornographic” and was contributing to the problem.

Bishop Adamec himself is among the many US bishops who have opposed the Vatican in the effort to halt the homosexual scandal in the priesthood. Adamec excoriated faithful Catholics of his diocese who objected, in 2002, to the invitation of a New Age proselytizer and promoter of lesbianism, Sr. Jose Hobday at a "Catholic Life Conference” sponsored by the diocese.

In September 1999, Bishop Adamec forbade a local priest, the Rev. Philip Saylor, from talking about the diocese's track record on sexual-abuse cases. Father Saylor was given a canonical "precept of silence," and threatened with excommunication if he disobeyed. Bishop Adamec continues to refuse public comment on the controversies surrounding his administration, including new allegations of sex abuse by priests.

In a statement, Adamec said, in opposition to recent instructions from Rome, that the problem with priestly sexual abuse of minors should not necessarily preclude men with homosexual tendencies from being ordained. Adamec has said that such matters should be handled “privately.”

He told a local paper that the diocese does not consider the “sexual orientation” of a candidate to the priesthood. “If the person is able to live a celibate life, in other words the orientation is one thing but acting it out and living it is another, then I think that we would need to take that into consideration.”

Since the beginning of the revelations of the sex abuse scandals in the Catholic Church in 2002, the focus of the hierarchy, as well as the secular media, has been to lay the blame on “pedophilia” and to deflect attention away from the large proportion of active homosexual men in the priesthood.

Despite hard numbers provided by the John Jay College of Law study that showed 80.9% of the priest offenders were homosexual men preying on adolescents, not children, most bishops continue to maintain that there is no problem with homosexuality in the ranks of the clergy.

"Man shall not condone evil or rationalize sin. Homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God and man! The Creator condemns those who do not repent of this sin." - Our Lady of the Roses, August 5, 1977

"Are you so blind that you do not recognize the acceleration of sin among you? Murders abound, thievery, all manner of carnage, destruction of young souls, abortion, homosexuality, condemned from the beginning of time by the Eternal Father. Yet sin has become a way of life. Sin is condoned now, even unto the highest judge of your land and your lands throughout the world. As you have sown so shall you reap. Sin is death, not only of the spirit, but of the body. Wars are a punishment for man's sin, his greed, his avarice." - Our Lady of the Roses, August 14, 1981

The awesome Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/../Bayside/
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.

READ YOUR BIBLES
"Your word of homosexuality can be explained by the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. Read in your Bibles or consult your clergy. Find yourselves, My children, a humble, pious clergy. Many have fallen away from the Faith." Our Lady, October 6, 1992

PASTORS HELD RESPONSIBLE
"We hold the pastors of My Son's House, We hold them as being responsible for the fall of the children. Be ye warned now, My children, that woe to the man who has this responsibility upon his conscience and his soul. Scandals have been brought into the lives of your children. Perversion, homosexuality, immorality, perverted sex, My children-where shall you stop but at the abyss!" Our Lady, December 7, 1977

AN ABOMINATION
"Man shall not condone evil or rationalize sin. Homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God and man! The Creator condemns those who do not repent of this sin." Our Lady, August 5, 1977

BLACK CLOUD OVER AMERICA
"In the days of Sodom, so too were men giving themselves over to all the pleasures of the flesh: eating, drinking, marrying, giving in marriage. All manner of sinful lusts are being committed. Men shameful with men, women casting aside their role of motherhood and lusting after women. As it was in the days of Sodom, so now is this black cloud over America." Our Lady, July 14, 1979

SODOM: "WE DESTROYED IT"
"And the great issue now of homosexuality in your country, that shall be on the balance that Michael holds. Unless this balance is evened by removing this evil from your country and bringing in just laws to prevent the spread of homosexuality, you cannot be saved; your country cannot be saved. Because I repeat again, as I have repeated in the past: When a country has given itself over to immorality and all pleasures of the flesh, and abominations of the flesh, then that country will fall! If you do not believe Me, My children, I say: You will read your history books, and you will find out that there was a Sodom and Gomorrah. And what did We do to that abominable city, Sodom? We destroyed it! And what did We do to Gomorrah? We destroyed it! And We destroyed all who did not follow the plan for their redemption." Jesus, November 1, 1985

SIN: FORERUNNER OF WAR
"For sin is always a forerunner for war, My children: murders, persecutions, robberies, all manners of sins of the flesh, homosexuality, lesbianism, perversion, sodomy. Sodom and Gomorrah fell for less sins than you have committed now upon your earth. Noah took to the ark and the world was in a better state spiritually than your world now; for you have accepted a sophisticated manner of sin, based on man's reasoning and not God's truth." Our Lady, October 2, 1979

ANY COUNTRY
"Any country that allows homosexuals to roam and to seduce the young shall be destroyed." Our Lady, June 30, 1984
