Anti-gay Archbishop Under Investigation For Sexual Misconduct With Other Men by GSKing: 2:37pm On Jul 06, 2014 |
Archbishop John Nienstedt John Nienstedt, the Catholic archbishop who championed the failed effort to ban same-sex marriage in Minnesota, is facing a church investigation over allegations of inappropriate sexual relationships with other men, including priests and seminary students. “I believe that the investigators have received about ten sworn statements alleging sexual impropriety on the part of the archbishop dating from his time as a priest in the Archdiocese of Detroit, as Bishop of New Ulm, and while coadjutor and archbishop of St. Paul and Minneapolis ,” church whistleblower Jennifer Haselberger told the magazine Commonweal, adding that Nienstedt “also stands accused of retaliating against those who refused his advances or otherwise questioned his conduct.” Haselberger previously revealed that Neinstedt was failing to properly investigate instances of alleged sexual abuse by priests, including one priest who may have had an “unprofessional relationship” with Neinstedt. Nienstedt vigorously denied the allegations, and stressed in his statements that none of the claims of sexual misconduct “involve minors.” Last year, Nienstedt was investigated by local law enforcement for allegedly touching a boy’s buttocks during a confirmation ceremony, but was not charged. Under Neinstedt, the archdiocese of Minneapolis and St. Paul joined with fellow Minnesota dioceses to deliver hundreds of thousands of dollars to anti-gay groups, together becoming the largest donor to the unsuccessful campaign pushing a state marriage amendment. Neinstedt warned Catholics that “there ought not be open dissension” on the issue of marriage equality and urged them to pray against gay rights. In 2010, the archdiocese also sent out more than 400,000 DVDs to parishioners urging them to vote for candidates that supported putting a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage on the ballot in 2012. During the campaign to ban marriage equality, Neinstedt said Satan is behind gay rights and called homosexuality a “ grave evil.” He has criticized the film Brokeback Mountain as an attack on Jesus Christ that would bring down society and described homosexuality as the “result of psychological trauma” that “must be understood in the context of other human disorders: envy, malice, greed, etc.” www.lgbtqnation.com/2014/07/anti-gay-archbishop-under-investigation-for-sexual-misconduct-with-other-men/ 1 Like |

More and more studies are providing evidence that homophobic people are mainly just self-loathing closet homosexuals. There was one study from 1996 that showed that "straight" self-described homophobic men were aroused by gay pr0n while straight men who said they didn't have anything against gays weren't. There are plenty of other studies supporting this as well as plenty of articles talking about it. And of course, there are so many examples of anti-gay campaigners who later turned out to be practicing homosexuals in secret. Off the top of my head, there's Pastor Ted Haggard, Pastor Eddy Long, US Senator Larry Craig. Apparently its a very common thing in the US for antigay campaigners to be outed by their angry, gay ex-partners. [img]http://doctore0.files./2011/01/haggard.jpg[/img] 5 Likes |

GSKing:interesting, i saw the news related to the archbishop some months ago when it was alledge that he placed his hands on a boys buttocks during a photo, the photo in question showed the bishops hands on the boys shoulder and archb john saiid he didn't remember any such insident, the police cleared him of any wrong doing and said such behavior is inconsistent with that of a pedophile. Now he has got himself tangled up in canon law, most cases of this nature are treated with an eye to draw blood, if he is found guilty he will face huge penalties not excluding defrocking. Let the law take its course. 1 Like |
