CNA/CWR: Legion of Christ seeks forgiveness, change with new norms

The document also encouraged its members to reflect on how to best comfort the victims of these scandals and correct these instances of abuse moving forward. According to the statement, the congregation seeks to instill a new attitude.

“In addition to confronting past cases of abuse and accountability, the Congregation seeks a change of mentality, a change of habits and a change of the institutional culture that allowed so much suffering to occur, and also to continue the effort of renewal based around the creation of safe environments together with the whole Church.”

What reason do we have to think that they have the viri to accomplish this?

Shortly after Connor was elected, the new leader received criticism about his negligence regarding past abuses. He was accused of mishandling abuse complaints surrounding Fr. Michael Sullivan, a Legion priest who reportedly acted inappropriately with women through touching and other interactions.

Gail Gore, a spokesperson for the Legion, told CNA Feb. 7 that Connor and the order handled the situation with the proper levels of communication, including sending an open letter about the situation to all members of the Legion in December. He said the accusations do not accurately represent the exchange.

CNA/CWR: Francis calls Legionaries of Christ to ‘continuous conversion’ at end of Rome meeting

Pope Francis Saturday told the Legionaries of Christ religious order to look toward the future as they continue to reform themselves, seeking continuous conversion under the guidance of the Church.

Guidance from a compromised hierarchy that is unaware of problems with “human formation” because of their own defects, and what is required to properly form men as a result? There are no vir to take charge of the circus that is the LC and make some necessary changes to salvage the order. I submit as evidence the following, to be marked exhibits A, B, C, and D.










Boot camp or even some sort of Q-course at the very least, that would be a start to test the character of the men in the order. "But that sort of physical and mental asceticism isn't necessary for a presbyter!" It is necessary for a vir.

I see the young LCs still maintain their look -- from last year: Three Legionary Deacons Ordained in Indiana.

Bishop José Rodríguez Carballo has a decent voice but the typical Latin episcopal portliness is really not appropriate for the office.

CNA/CWR: Catholics must reject social media anti-Semitism, Indiana bishop says

"We are bound together with them in friendship as brothers and sisters in the family of God,” said Rhoades.

This is erroneous, or just plain heresy, and ignores the necessity of divine adoption in Christ.

Any antagonism is a response to transgressions by outsiders, and political in nature, not religious.

Christopher R. Altieri on the Vanier Scandal

CWR: Letter from Rome, February 22, 2020: Jean Vanier by Christopher R. Altieri
We must remember that God’s mercy — the response of self-subsistent Charity to sinful creatures — is severe; stern as death, and not less terrible than His wrath.

A comment: Institutions can no longer masquerade as being communities or of the community — they are instead tied to mass population centers where anonymity and the lack of accountability reign. If there is to be reform, there must be accountability, and everyone must vet each other properly, and where this is not possible, distance must be maintained. This is the only way forward. Trust can no longer be assumed or given freely — it must be earned.
