Maybe it's because English is not his language???
Did he mean "For all those who are suffering BECAUSE of the division and discord in our Archdiocese"?
Did he mean "For all those who are suffering as a RESULT of the division and discord in our Archdiocese"??
Did he mean "For all those who HAVE HAD painful experiences because of the horrible idiots running our diocese and who I have so far kept in place"??
No one, even you Archbishop Hon can undo what the victims and any victims for that matter of what they have gone through. You cannot redefine sex abuse and rape to a sweet delicious apple. It is what it is and it is a CRIME..Show some pity towards these men from Guam. Don't walk on by!
ReplyDeleteDid he mean "for all those who are suffering because of painful experiences (WITH APURON, ADRIAN, DAVID THE VG, ETC.)that have resulted in the division and discord in our diocese...?
ReplyDeleteIntentions must be accompanied with corrective action, otherwise it's doesn't amount to anything. I continue to be terribly disappointed and hurt by the sad state of affairs brought on by Apuron, Adrian, David, and the stinking monk, Pius. Archbishop Hon, they have to go if you expect us to rally around you.
ReplyDeleteWell it's signed Tai Fai the Hon but sounds like Neo propaganda. Your painful experiences are the cause of division and discourse. Really Tai Fai, is this your message to the victims? Issue an apology or fire your PR person.
ReplyDeleteThis is part of the problem...Hon and Ted sent in a two man kayak facing 30 ft waves. No PR...nothing. Just steady their boat and washed over again...AND, the storm hast begun. SOS!!!!! Should not have set out like that...you knew what the waters were like.
DeleteArchbishop Hon, since the negative words you use of “division and discord” are not unifying after all, why not just say your prayer for unity in this manner:
ReplyDelete“For all those who are suffering because of painful experiences,
that the Holy Spirit bring healing, wholeness, reconciliation and harmony among God’s Catholic people on Guam. We pray to the Lord” …
First of all, the accusations (of the sexually abused and molested) DID NOT result in the division and discord in our Archdiocese. The first victim’s public revelation of the trauma and suffering he endured because of the serial pedophilic crimes of Apuron when they were minors and Altar boys was on the 17th of May, THIS YEAR!
Second, and more importantly: have you forgotten why you were on Guam in Jan. 2015? We were already experiencing and seeing the deep division and discord between our local Church vs the NCW because of the differences between our authentic Catholic Teachings and NCW ideologies -- as in the NCW’s irreverent (some would say in their heretical) practices at Mass and their illicit distribution and reception of the Consecrated Host; our Catholic Doctrine of The Real Presence of Our Lord and Our God!!
That the NCW can arrogantly assume for themselves The Authority -- reserved only for the Magisterium -- to define, revise and alter teachings and practices declared Catholic Doctrine, is outright Heretical and Anathema!
The Neocatechumenal Way, Archbishop Hon, is the evil root, seed and CAUSE of the discord and division in our authentic Catholic Church on Guam!
All the other atrocities which happened before these sexual accusations, related to and rooted in the arrival and existence of the NCW here in our local Church -- all of those things are what the NCW did because they saw them as threats to and impediments toward their goal of taking over our Catholic Church and their goal of altering authentic Catholicism on Guam to the NCW’s cult ways! Thus, the Division and Discord.
Of course our local faithful will resist, kick and fight, suppress, deny and denounce the NCW practices, ideologies and NCW brainwashing!
I would emphasize that the EVIL is first and foremost Anthony S. Apuron and those, including the leadership of the NCW, who participated in and covered up for his filthy trade in the bodies of boys, then sat himself as bishop of this diocese for three decades, permitting every sort of evil and filth to permeate and penetrate our local church while he admired his picture in the paper and listened to himself sing on the radio.
DeleteIt is analogous to praying for the poor to be well and keep warm, but not giving them food or a coat. Actions speak louder than words Archbishop Hon. If you did not say a single word to Walter as he stood at the steps of the cathedral, but stepped down from your high steps and gave him an embrace, that gesture would have started his path to healing, and would have said more about your compassion as a minister and follower of Christ, than can be written in volumes of books.
ReplyDeleteBy "unity and reconciliation" Hon meant " forgive and forget apuron's abominations and move on". NO WAY! WE'LL FIGHT FOR WHAT'S RIGHT.
ReplyDeleteMoving forward???? And the committee clergy vote yeah???? Omg.
DeleteI am one of those that is quite upset about what has been going on with the molestation of those kids (now men). But I have yet to make my voice heard except by my postings. Let me give accolades to those who have been in the fight. But also thanks to the NCW, without your naked aggression to control the church, the molester could have gotten away with his crimes.
ReplyDeleteHon is from Hong Kong a former British territory until 1997. He is fluent in the "Queens english". He is not an ESL student like may at RMS.
ReplyDeleteHe taught at RMS. Seminary ...in HK?
DeleteHon fron Hong Kong might be fluent in Her Majesty's language, but he is not at all fluent in the language of justice being demanded by those who are being re-victimized by the Church through his ignorance and non-action. The suggested prayer is just a fog machine designed to assuage people's anxieties. When is he going to be onboard the Papal mandate to solve the issues on Guam? If Hon from Hongkong maintains his undecisive stance, it would have been better for the Pope to send a crank-driven monkey to entertain us to soothe our hurts and to encourage us to be serene. Less expense, less hopeful and in the end will accomplish what he aims for which is to keep NCW humming kiko-songs on Gusm.
