Razzle Dazzle Bishop

The Jesuit alumni of Arizona, which organized the event, called it “Two Catholic Views on Marriage,” but in his remarks Bishop Paprocki was quick to point out that was a misnomer. “I corrected that, since there is only one authentic Catholic view,” said the bishop. “There are two views being presented here tonight by two people who are baptized Catholics, but only one of those views, the one I will present, is consistent with Catholic teaching, while the other view clearly dissents from Catholic teaching.

I did not hear about this debate, or hear about the murder of this woman in the news? I wonder if the audio of the debate is available.

A similar search on the Internet for the name “Mary Stachowicz” yielded 26,800 results.  In 2002, Mary Stachowicz was also brutally murdered, but the circumstances were quite different. 

Mary, the gentle, devout 51-year-old Catholic mother of four urged her co-worker, Nicholas Gutierrez, 19, to change his gay lifestyle. Infuriated by this, as he later told police, he allegedly beat, stabbed and strangled her to death and then stuffed her mangled body in a crawl space in his apartment, located above a Chicago funeral home, where they both worked.

Both murders were senseless and brutal, and I condemn them both unequivocally. However, the fact that there are over eleven and a half million more Internet stories about Matthew Shepard than Mary Stachowicz indicates where popular sentiment lies today on the question of same-sex relationships. Shepard’s story has received such widespread attention because his homosexuality was the chief motive for his murder.

Mary’s murder was widely ignored by the media, despite the fact that she died as a martyr for her faith.

This is a very sad example of how we are lead by sheep by the media. I have never heard of Mary Stachowicz, God rest her soul, but had she had SSA and her murderer was Catholic it would have likely been major news of weeks, and people would have been enraged. But she was just some poor Catholic woman and her death didn't fit the template.

 

Thank you and the Bishop for bringing her sacrifice to my attention.

 

Holy Martyrs pray for us.

Sr. Jeannine Gramick refused to assent to the CDF profession of faith issued some years ago following an investigation of her views on homosexuality, and was officially censured and forbidden to continue any pastoral work with people suffering from homosexual desires. I posted the CDF's profession of faith in another thread, and it can be found at the link below:

it's sad when religious do not present the Catholic teaching on this subject.  they are guilty of leading souls astray...

 

 

Thank God for good bishops like this one...
