Oppose corruption in the hierarchy of the Catholic Church    

References concerning Archbishop Oscar H. Lipscomb, my legal bishop:

        On Sunday, August 15, 1993, The feast of the Immaculate Conception, the Mobile Register printed a cartoon submitted by this priest that in effect was a defense of the action taken by one Michael Griffin who choose to protect some future innocent unborn children of God by taking the life of a practicing mass murderer.  This murderous practice had been approved of by civil society and, by default, Catholic clergy who were also guilty by reason of failure to pay more than lip service concerning this grievous offense to God during a time span of over 21 years.

        Bishops in particular had the obligation to set the pattern for opposing this evil.  Due to toothless lip service by indifferent or evil bishops, with very few exceptions, abortion was effectively condoned by reason of omission to teach meaningfully and following such teaching through convincing personal involvement.  Any decent sized parish could have made it unprofitable for abortionists by legal picketing and brought about their closing.  Through proper catechesis concerning voting, the supreme court's legalization of abortion murder could have been overturned many years ago.

Has Oscar Hugh Lipscomb morally ceased to be the Archbishop of Mobile?

1. He personally stated to me that he considered the teachings of the Old Testament no longer applicable.  He obviously believes that God the Father and God the Son have different standards concerning salvation.  The archbishop apparently accepts a whimsical God who sets different standards for different periods of time, that is, what one believes concerning faith and morals in one age is not necessarily what will be believed in another time framework.  Jesus endorsed the teachings found in the Old Testament.  Jesus stated that the law of the Old Testament was to be brought to fulfillment. [Mt. 5:17-19]
2. He defended the lives of mass murderers who regularly advertize and perform abortions.  He gives their lives preference over the lives of the innocent unborn children who had been given eternal existence by God.
3. In place of teaching the doctrine of the Church he fosters the practice of humanism.
4. Many years age a well known cleric in the archdiocese stated that 35% of the priests of Mobile archdiocese were homosexual.
5. On December 14, 2002 Lipscomb publicly defends Cardinal Law stateing that he was a "victim of media campaign."  in an effort to absolve him of his crimes.  Cardinal Law and the Archdiocese of Boston are involved in more than 500 law suits.  (Beyond the Archdiocese, By Thomas J. Reese, S.J., Chapter 8.)Chapter 8.)
6. At the national bishops meeting in June 2002 Lipscomb opposes the removal of pedophiles from the priesthood stating that it was to harsh of a penalty since they had only destroyed the life of one person.
7. Archbishop Lipscomb donated $3 million to another diocese to help pay off lawsuits of priest pedophiles without stipulating that they first be permanently removed from the priesthood along with all Church support.
8. Archbishop Lipscomb pleads for prayers for former priest Vernon Dahmen a practicing homosexual who died of `A.I.D.S.'

        Archbishop Hannan as metropolitan of Louisiana was very active behind the scenes in Lafayette, LA, where a priest admitted to sexually abusing thirty-five children and was sentenced to twenty years in jail. Fourteen families sued the diocese, whose insurance companies eventually paid them an undisclosed sum that was estimated to be as high as $5 or $10 million. It became impossible for the local bishop to deal with this crisis, because he had transferred the priest to his current parish after knowing of his involvement in an earlier incident. The bishop, who had sent the priest to a psychiatrist, admitted making a mistake in not recognizing the depth of the priest's illness.

        Archbishop Hannan became involved because the Vatican wanted to avoid the publicity that would surround a criminal trial. "My job was to see that the right steps were taken to make sure that there wasn't any trial," says Archbishop Hannan. He visited the priest in jail and convinced him to accept a plea bargain.
