"The Book of Gomorrah is letter written to Pope St. Leo IX around the year 1049 in response to an epidemic of sodomy among the priests of Italy, which Peter Damian feared would bring down the wrath of God upon the Church. This plague of sexual perversion was part of a larger crisis of moral laxity in the priesthood, including widespread sexual incontinency and illicit marriages, the simoniacal purchasing of clerical ordination, and the prevalence of a worldly and carnal mentality among the clergy. The laity were outraged by such behavior and were even beginning to rebel against the Church hierarchy in some places, such as Florence and Milan."
It's time for us on Guam to wake up from our 400 year Catholic slumber. There has always been need to rebel against the "smoke of satan" in the Church. Let this fact STRENGTHEN your faith. Satan doesn't waste his time on false churches. Satan tears at the only Church that can harm him: the TRUE one.

Where is the outrage? Where are the actions outside of a few brave souls?
Your deafening silence has allowed this poor excuse of a Bishop, his gang and his sect of kookoos to continue hurting good and innocent people!
It has allowed the Pius, the Cristobal, the Wadeson and the Apuron of this world to get away with their crimes!
