THE BRAZIL SITUATION

The Facts:
1) 9 yr old RAPED and MOLESTED by father
2) Becomes pregnate; as a result of which the molestation STOPS
3) BABY and 9 yr old GIRL in DANGER
4) Mother and doctors determine IT WOULD BE “BEST”
5) BABY KILLED
6) Mother and Doctor Excommunicated

It is simple, and still sad! The case of the Brazilian girl is a clear example of why God is God and we are not!!!

God became man created a Church and gave His Church all it needs to save souls. Part of this content, the moral law, teaches us that evil is evil, even if we do it for a good reason, and that evil will pervert the whole world if we let it.

That is what has happened here, one evil begets another. A perverted Father rapes his innocent child. Why, we don't know, but I am willing to bet that there is a history of sin and evil behind it going all the way back to Cain and Abel. He rapes and molests his daughter--how long would this have gone on if she hadn't become pregnant? God gives her the gift of a child, despite the fact that she is too young to bear children, a gift which in fact saves her life by stopping the abuse that would have left her an empty body traumatized by a childhood marked not with childish joy but violence.

The mother and doctors of this Child judged that the innocent baby, in the young girls womb is dangerous, not because it did something wrong, but because it exists, and so they killed the baby. Another objective sin, another act of violence, another emotional scar on the heart of this abused 9 year old girl. The result?

Does the girl learn to trust the God who saved her life by giving her a child? NO.

Does the girl learn through her child, who may have survived, that God can bring good out of evil? NO.

Does the girl learn how valuable the life of every child is? NO.

So what does she learn? She learns that violence can be solved with violence, that the strong will always dominate the weak, and that the only person you can trust in is yourself and your own power.

She also learns that the ancient wisdom of the Church which promotes goodness and love, even occasionally at the cost of great sacrifice, is really "just a misogynistic attempt to do violence against her."

The Church excommunicated her mother and her doctors because the Church realizes that somewhere the cycle of evil has got to stop. But instead of learning this, thanks to the Marxist feminist dialectic promoted on this page she will learn that the Church hates women; and more than this that the God of Christianity must hate women too, since in fact he ultimately wrote the law though SHALL NOT KILL. He must be a misogynist too, since he forgot to put all the necessary exceptions in for cases of rape and incest.

Like I said, it’s pretty simple, and yet sad.

God loves you, and the mystical body of His Son, the Church loves you all too, but contrary to popular opinion God knows better than you what is good for you, and His Church is the only faithful and steadfast communicator of this knowledge. If you don't believe these two premises, you can't be Catholic, but worse than this if you don't believe this then there is no way you can escape the cycle of sin that we are all trapped by without God and his Church.

MY MANIFESTO OF HISTORICAL CONSCIOUSNESS

Ray,

You say that I am blind to the realities of History, I beg to differ. I am well aware that the Church, a creation of God, contains men, as I have said many times. I am well aware that these men often sin, sometimes involking the name of the Church when they do so.

I am aware that at times the men who make up the church has allowed itself to be intimidated by worldly powers.

I am aware that abuses of the Jewish people have taken place by the men that make up the church.

I am aware that they have failed to live the evangelical councils of poverty, chastity, and obedience.

I am aware that bishops have used the Inquisition to persecute political opponents

I am aware that the Kings of Spain did the same.

I am aware that no matter how poorly our Orthodox brothers in the East treated the West the sack of Constantinople during the second crusade was dispicable.

I am aware that indulgences have been sold.

I am aware that people have not been taught the Gospel message.

I am aware that often the Church has fail to spread this same message to those who had not heard the Good News, and that in spreading the news some missionaries acted contrary to the Law of Love.

However, I also believe that the Christian (Catholic) faith is the true faith.

I am aware that some do not believe this, and I believe that the Law of Love Requires those who know it to spread the Faith.

I believe that Christianity is objectively better (i.e. more true) than pagan cults like those in South America that demanded human sacrifices.

I am aware that while some injustices occurred in the course of the spread of the faith from Jerusalem throughout the Roman world (S. & W. Europe, W. Asia, and N. Africa), to Northern and Eastern Europe, Asia, and the rest of Africa, as well as the Americas and Australia, that the spread of Christianity—materially, morally, socially, and most importantly spiritually—improved the lives of those to whom it was spread.

I am aware of all this and much more, and yet I still believe that Christ will keep his promises to the Church and that the Church is the primary force for good in the world, often inspite of those who claim membership.
