PEDOPHILIA EXPERTS MAY BE THE PROBLEM
I
recently wrote a Newsletter exposing a false report on pedophilia in Portugal,
when in fact there have only been three cases of pedophilia in the last ten
years. Nor is there any indication that
this will change since at least the vast majority of Portuguese people are
anti-homosexual and it is from the homosexuals that most pedophilia comes
from. In America and those other
counties where homosexual conduct is most accepted, the problem of pedophilia
is the greatest. The problem in America
and in the American Church is the acceptance of homosexual conduct and the
cover-up of its connection to pedophilia.
The American Church used these so-called experts, who in fact were
advocates of pedophilia, to advise the Church and to treat the accused
priests. My hat off to Fred Martinez
who wrote the following report for a most complete and will documented
investigation of the problem with the American Catholic Church sex
scandals. The best I have ever read. He has given me authorization to post this
without change and has asked that other web sites do the same so that the word
can get out of where the real problem lies.

The
Sex Abuse Lobby, the Bishops and VOTF
By Fred Martinez
On Aug. 21, the Washington Times reported that the U.S. Catholic Bishops'
sex abuse advisers are "people who have covered up ... sex between men
and children." Moreover, these advisers have had close association with
"experts" who "defended sex between men and children."
"The bishops recently chose Dr. Paul McHugh, former chairman of the
Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at John Hopkins University
School of Medicine, as chief behavioral scientist for their new clergy sex
crimes review board," the Reisman-Jarrard report in the Times said.
"Yet Dr. McHugh once said Johns Hopkins' Sexual Disorders Clinic, which
treats molesters, was justified in concealing multiple incidents of child rape
and fondling to police, despite a state law requiring staffers to report
them."
McHugh's subordinate, Johns Hopkins clinic head Fred Berlin, according to the
report, "admitted he had covered for the sex criminals, angering
legislators, child-advocacy groups and state officials. But his actions were
not surprising, because 'at least eight men have been convicted of sexually
abusing Maryland children while under [Berlin's] treatment there.' "
Dr. Judith Reisman and Dennis Jarrard, who wrote the report, are experts in the
field of sex abuse and obscenity.
Jarrard served as an adviser to the Los Angeles County Commission on
Obscenity and Pornography, while Reisman is an internationally known expert on
Alfred Kinsey and sex abuse.
Reisman is president of The Institute for Media Education and has been a
consultant to three U.S. Department of Justice administrations and the U.S.
Department of Education, as well as the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services.
Money Is
Berlin's Mentor
The Reisman-Jarrard report said Berlin has been the U.S. Catholic bishops'
"chief adviser on child sexual abuse." Yet, according to Reisman,
"Dr. Berlin described [pedophilia supporter] Dr. [John] Money as 'one of
his most important mentors.' "
The Washington Times report said, "Dr. Money once gave an interview to PAIDIKA
– the Journal of Paedophilia, an 'academic' publication that advocates adult
sex with children alongside ads for the North American Man-Boy Love Association
(NAMBLA) and other pro-pedophilia groups. He told PAIDIKA that a
'relationship' that is 'totally mutual' between a boy of 10 or 11 and an adult
male 'would not [be] pathological in any way.' "
On May 30, The Wanderer, a national Catholic weekly, said that the Money-Berlin
advice to the bishops began when "the founder of St. Luke's Institute,
Rev. Michael R. Peterson, M.D. (who later died of AIDS), urges the Church to
rely on Berlin and Money in a 1985 paper."
Money Is a Disciple of Kinsey
Reisman, quoted in The Wanderer article, said that "Dr. Berlin and John
Money, Ph.D., co-founded a celebrated sexual training and treatment center, The
Johns Hopkins Sexual Disorders Clinic. … Dr. Money, as it turns out, was a
dedicated Kinsey disciple, the mentor for June Reinisch (the third Kinsey
Institute director) and on the advisory board of the Kinsey Institute."
The Wanderer piece, titled "The Real Experts Advise Bishops: Sue your
Experts," claims much of the Church's "recent difficulties"
have come about because "many of the Church's key sexuality advisors are
associated with" the agenda created by Dr. Alfred Kinsey and the Kinsey
Institute at Indiana University.
Reisman in the article urges the U.S. Bishops to sue their Kinsey experts for
malpractice:
"To me, this is a case of massive medical malpractice by those in the
human sexuality field, as well as consumer fraud, as well as a broad spectrum
of other things for the lawyers to sort out. ...These so-called 'human
sexuality educators' have been teaching behaviors that cause dysfunction, that
are anti-authority and anti- Church."
The May 20 article, by Paul Likoudis, said that "Kinsey and his colleagues
were the driving force behind the legalization of fornication, adultery,
bestiality, pedophilia and other immoral, harmful behaviors."
Fraudulent Scientific Data Eliminates Penalties for Sexual Offenses
Kinsey, because of the worldwide influence of his fraudulent scientific
data, has been called the father of the homosexual movement by
homosexuals, and the father of the sexual revolution as well as the pornography
industry and, some say, the sex abuse lobby.
James H. Jones, an Indiana University scholar and Kinsey Institute insider, in
an exposé biography titled "Alfred C. Kinsey: A Public/Private Life,"
shows the motivation behind the Kinseyan "pan-sexualism" agenda. In
the document "How Junk Sex Science Created a Paradigm Shift in Society,
Legislation and the Judiciary," Reisman said:
"Jones' data confirms other reports that Kinsey was a sexist, racist
and atheist who excluded women, Jews, blacks, and moral traditionalists from
his staff and hired only homosexuals and bisexuals (with one short-term
exception). Kinsey only hired sexual deviants on whom he could rely to keep his
secrets – including his [scientific] fraud, his "uncommon desires,"
and the child molesters he used to conduct child sex experiments.
Jones also reported that Kinsey: coerced his wife into
participating in acts of adultery and sodomy with his staff and co-authors
(which were filmed), seduced male students at Indiana University (and bullied
their wives into participating), filmed sex with his male co-workers (who were
rewarded by promotion to co-authorship), and filmed himself participating in
sado-masochistic sex rituals."
In this report Reisman farther said, "Based on his [fraudulent scientific]
data, Kinsey claimed that children enjoyed sex and the real harm of adult-child
sex stemmed from 'hysterical' parents, teachers and professionals who reacted
with anger and horror to children's disclosures. Based on his findings, many
legislatures lightened or eliminated penalties for sexual offenses ... toward
children as 'victims' in cases of incest and child molestation."
In 1991, the widely respected British medical journal The Lancet verified
Reisman's research when it demanded that the Kinsey Institute be investigated,
writing:
"The Kinsey reports (one in 1948 on males and the companion five years
later) claimed that sexual activity began much earlier in life ... and
displayed less horror of age differences and same-sex relationships than anyone
at the time imagined. It was as if, to follow Mr. Porter again, 'Anything
goes'. In "Kinsey, Sex and Fraud," Dr. Judith A. Reisman and her
colleagues demolish the foundations of the two [Kinsey] reports."
The Bishops, the 'Sex Experts' and the Media's Cover-up
Many believe that the Kinseyan experts and the homosexual network within the
Church protected the gay sex abuser at the Dallas meeting. As the National
Review's Rod Dreher pointed out on June 13, "the need to avoid the
'elephant in the sacristy [the fact that the vast majority of priest sexual
abusers are homosexuals],' in Mary Eberstadt's memorable phrase, is perhaps the
only point on which the bishops and the media agree."
To this end, the bishops running the Dallas meeting, according to the June 13
National Review article, had staged "briefings for the media on various
aspects of the abuse scandal" by Kinseyan psychiatric panelists such as
Fred Berlin, Fr. Stephen Rossetti, Fr. Candice Connors and others with a
pro-homosexual agenda.
National Review's Dreher said, "The Rev. Stephen Rossetti, current
president of St. Luke's, … is believed by some psychiatrists associated with
the Catholic Medical Association to have been a big part of the problem, owing
to the advice he's been giving bishops. Rossetti has most recently been downplaying
the role homosexuality plays in the scandal."
The bishops, the sex experts and the mass media's suppression of the widely
known fact that the vast majority of sexual abusers in the Church scandal are
homosexuals was even contradicted earlier in the year by a liberal national
magazine.
U.S. News & World Report columnist John Leo reported that studies have
shown that 5 percent or less of priests fit the pedophile description. He said,
"Most sexual victims of priests are teenage boys [abused in homosexual
acts], according to one estimate. A study of Chicago's 2,200 priests identified
40 sexual abusers, only one of whom was a pedophile."
Also, according to the News Agency's "The World Seen From Rome,"
Hastings Wyman, syndicated homosexual columnist, wrote: "The pattern of
sexual abuse among Catholic clergy does suggest a gay problem … 90 percent
of the cases of sex with adolescents that have come to light in the Church
involved teenage boys, not girls. Do the math." (Between the Lines,
May 22, 2002)
During the Dallas bishops meetings on June 15, the homosexual spin group Gay
& Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) through its network in
the Church reported news that the mass media censored. Homosexual activist Cathy Renna, writing for
GLAAD's Web site, said that liberal bishops within the church protected the gay
sex abuser at the Dallas meeting.
"We also learned more late last night about the anti-gay proposal offered
by Bishop Fabian Bruskewitz of Lincoln, Neb. Bruskewitz's 'Amendment 27' would
have stated that because the 'current homosexual culture' was the root cause of
the sex-abuse crisis, the bishops would be required to force strict conformity
with all church doctrines on sexuality. His proposal was soundly rejected on a
voice vote, with a source inside the meeting telling me that it received only
perhaps a half-dozen votes of support."
During a victory get-together, Renna said she met with "a number of
familiar media faces" and Anne Barrett Doyle of the Coalition of Concerned
Catholics who is a member of the steering committee for the lay reform movement
Voice of the Faithful.
According to Renna, "Anne was one of the first people I spoke with back in
March when we were cultivating resources and contacts to offer media outlets.
... Seeing Anne at the cathedral brought to mind how far we've come in the past
months."
During those months, the mass media outlets, under the sway of gay activists
like Renna and her friend Doyle of Voice of the Faithful, had censored George
Will, Pope John Paul II's spokesman Dr. Joaquin Navarro-Valls, and the
almost-all-conservative representatives in Dallas who attempted to report the
link between homosexuality and sexual abuse by priests, which U.S. News &
World Report detailed before the media cover-up.
VOTF and the Doyle-Peterson-Mouton Report
Activist Anne Barrett Doyle and her organization Voice of the Faithful (VOTF)
have also taken part in the cover-up of the link between homosexuality and
sexual abuse by priests. In fact, VOTF has been promoting the 1985 report by
Fr. Michael R. Peterson, which brought the Kinsey experts and pan-sexualism's
non-"judgmentalism" into the Church.
As stated earlier, The Wanderer said that the Kinseyan advice to the bishops
began when Peterson, who founded the St. Luke Institute (which the Dallas
panelists Connors and Rossetti later ran), urged "the Church to rely on
Berlin and Money in a 1985 paper" and on his "pan-sexualism" St.
Luke Institute.
Even the pro-gay National Catholic Reporter on May 17 admitted that "the
church's highest court, the Vatican Signatura's brief, later published
in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, stated: "St. Luke Institute, a clinic
founded by a priest [Fr Michael Peterson] who is openly homosexual and based on
a mixed doctrine of Freudian pan-sexualism and behaviorism, is surely not a
suitable institution apt to judge rightly about the beliefs and the lifestyle
of a Catholic priest."
The liberal bishops continued to rely on Peterson for advice despite the
Vatican's warning, as shown in the pro-gay National Catholic Reporter's May 17
article:
"By the time of Peterson's death [of AIDS], Cardinal James Hickey of
Washington had come to rely on Peterson, along with a number of bishops, for
advice in handling sex-offending members of the clergy. During the Mass, Hickey
praised Peterson's work at St. Luke Institute, calling him a 'brilliant and
hard-working priest.' "
According to the May 30 The Wanderer article "The Homosexual Network and
the 1985 Clergy Sex Abuse Report," Peterson was a "disciple" of
John Money and a homosexual who once owned and operated his own
"sex-change clinic" in San Francisco.
The 1985 Peterson report, which VOTF has been promoting, said:
"We have been hampered in our profession by extreme moral judgmentalism,
if I may use the phrase, and it is only in very few medical schools in this
country that the issue is treated or even addressed properly. The Johns Hopkins
Hospital Sexual Disorders Clinic run by Dr. John Money [who became a
pedophilia supporter] and Dr. Fred Berlin [who later covered up for the
sex criminals] is probably the 'authority' scientific community. I know
personally both of these highly respected scientists and I am very appreciative
of their efforts to bring this psychiatric disorder out of the shadows and into
the 'scientific daylight' so that we can begin to see the disorder as a
psychiatric disease and not a moral weakness
[alterboys.tripod.com/moutonreport/pag e_1x.html]."
The VOTF Web site said that the winner of its first VOTF Priest of Integrity
Award, the Rev. Thomas Doyle, "[joined] with Rev. Michael Peterson, a
priest/psychiatrist who founded a treatment center for clergy, and Ray Mouton,
a Louisiana lawyer, [to write] a comprehensive report in 1985, and sent it to
every bishop, identifying sexual abuse as a compulsive, lifelong psychosexual
disorder, not a moral weakness."
In a report found on the Survivors' Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP)
Web site called "A Short History of the Manual," Doyle said that
Money's disciple Peterson "was a friend and collaborator." The
"Short History" report said the manual was an "instrument about
how to deal with cases of priest-pedophilia."
However, the manual failed to bring out the homosexual sex abuse of teenage
boys as the overwhelming component of the problem, which then as now is 90
percent or more of the sex abuse scandal. Also in the case of the pedophilia
abuse, the vast majority are boys.
Even the Doyle-Peterson-Mouton manual said, "In my experience, most of the
pedophiliac clerics I have seen and my colleagues have dealt with are
homosexual pedophiles and not heterosexual pedophiles; this is surprising since
the greater percentage in the general population is the opposite."
But instead of bringing out the homosexual abuse problem as the main portion of
the scandal, the manual calls it a "Compulsive Heterosexual/Homosexual
Acting Out," "Pedophilia or Sexual Molestation of Minors" and
"Exhibitionism" problem.
The Doyle-Peterson-Mouton manual said – and Bill Clinton would appreciate this
– that "exposing the genitals" to unfamiliar persons "represents
one of the 'victimless crimes.' " But the main problem is that the manual
uses the standard gay activist spin that VOTF's Anne Barrett Doyle, GLAAD and
the media used to censored conservatives in Dallas who attempted to report the
link between homosexuality and sexual abuse by priests.
The tactic, as Peterson used for the most part in the Executive Summary of the manual,
is to say that the scandal is about pedophilia and then claim that pedophilia
is not associated with homosexuality, but is a heterosexual problem or at most
a heterosexual/homosexual problem.
The gay activist expert and psychiatrist Jeffrey Satinover, who wrote the book
"Homosexuality and the Politics of Truth," which the Congressional
Record of May 1996 called the "best book on homosexuality written in our
times," states this is a standard spin. He writes:
"Activists are aware of the adverse effect on the gay-rights movement that
could result if people perceived any degree of routine association between
homosexuality and pedophilia. ... They have denied this association by focusing
on the [true] fact that – in absolute numbers – heterosexuals commit more child
molestation than homosexuals."
"But careful studies show that pedophilia is far more common among
homosexuals than heterosexuals."
>From the information that Kinsey expert Reisman has documented, Peterson
was only following the Kinseyan advice of his mentors Money and Berlin, until
his death of AIDS in 1987. Also, Peterson, who was homosexual – as with the gay
Kinsey in his data – probably felt a need to cover up the gay connection to the
scandal in order to protect his gay subculture.
Doyle and VOTF Have No Excuse
But Doyle and VOTF, which is the mass media's favorite "Catholic" lay
organization to cure the Catholic Church of its sex-abuse scandal, have no
excuse.
Every knowledgeable person without an agenda knows the fact that at least 90
percent of the problem is homosexuals "acting out" on teenage boys.
VOTF and Doyle have failed to bring out this fact in their many media
opportunities.
In fact, in the 1996 Doyle-Demarest memo, Doyle uses the gay activist spin:
"In the past it was common to refer to priests who had sexually abused
male children as homosexuals when in fact "pedophiles" would have
been the correct term. ... I am convinced that the use of the term
"homosexual" when referring to actions with young boys actually meant
pedophilia or at least pedophilic acts [www.thelinkup.com/execsum.html]."
Some orthodox Catholics wonder why VOTF, if it really wants to end the sex
abuse scandal, gave the Priest of Integrity Award to Doyle instead of the
Latino Fr. Enrique Rueda, who in 1982 wrote "The Homosexual Network."
In the book Rueda documented how disgraced homosexual Archbishop Rembert
Weakland and other church leaders brought gay activists into the heart of
the church. Connie Marshner of the Free Congress Foundation in a March report
"We Were Warned" said:
"The name of the fair city of Boston appears frequently in Fr. Rueda's
pages, giving it the dubious distinction of being the birthplace of NAMBLA, the
North American Man/Boy Love Association (an interesting coincidence in light of
subsequent developments). Also interesting to note is that one [now infamous
mass pedophile] Fr. Paul Shanley attended the NAMBLA convention in Boston,
supposedly on behalf of the then-Catholic Archbishop, Medeiros."
"In the early days of 'gay liberation', 1972, a National Coalition of Gay
Organizations adopted a "Gay Rights Platform." This list of demands
included one to repeal all laws governing the age of sexual consent – a matter
of some obvious concern to pederasts."
For his efforts to end the scandal Reuda, according to the March 30 The
Wanderer article, was "exiled by his bishop Matthew Clark of Rochester,
NY, refused incardination by every other American bishop, and is today, an
official 'nonperson' in the American church."
If VOTF and the liberal bishops really want to end the church scandal, then
they have to stop covering up the gay part of 90 percent of the scandal. If
VOTF and Doyle really want to end the pedophilia part of the scandal, then they
have to expose the fraudulent scientific data eliminating penalties for sexual
abusers and the Kinseyan "experts" who are advising the bishops.
If not, then VOTF needs to take the advice that Doyle recently gave in Canada:
"Any institution that enables the cover-up, protects the abusers or the
authorities that hide them, doesn't deserve to exist."
