  1. Really? This is from brother tony? Some healing he's suppose to be promoting. What a crackerjack. He needs to go play with the rest of his monkeys on the hill. I've lost all respect for brother tony.

  2. This is stupid.

    Easy fix for everyone part of CCOG: shut it down and put an end to the group.

    Then open up another group, call it something else and use the same mission points.

    1. Someone shared a pic on FB of Arch Hon on GUAM concelebrating a Mass with Apuron. I wonder how objective Hon will be? We can not let our guard down.

      Delete
    2. You are correct anon at 12.52, Hon has been very, very supportive of the NCW, he is also the right hand of Filoni, who is probably the most influential Kiko backer at the Vatican. The two of them control one of the most powerful secretariat there.

      It is therefore perplexing to figure why Filoni recommended that temporary appointment.

      Scenario #1 : Francis is so upset, he demanded to put someone powerful to clean up house. So Filoni sent his trusted sidekick.

      Scenario#2 : The Pressure has been so Strong, coming from the Department of State;that keepingthe issue under the rug is no longer an option for Filoni, despite the pleas from Genarrini and Kiko. So Filoni sent his trusted sidekick.

      *[A special note here: while the Luis scandal was basically under control here on Guam, the hiding of Luis in Qatar, and the subsequent mail exchange between Chuck White, Bishop Ballin, myself and the respective nuncios, had a very big ripple effect in Rome, and was not taken lightly by the Department of State and the Pope. So when the first official allegations started arriving in writing to the nuncio, before they were made public, it is rumored Francis had quite a tantrum.]

      In both Scenario, Filoni has been put on the spot, which is something he does not like.
      His friendship with Kiko is not to be proven anymore, it is a matter for the record.

      He is now under pressure by another secretariat, which is a lot more neutral regarding the NCW, and which is very anti-pedophile. ( Also a matter of record.)

      So we will discover very soon, what mission Filoni gave to Hon.

      His approach, regarding the administration of the Chancery, his willingness to investigate the accusations, and his relationship with the priests on the island, including the newly minted presbyters, shall be very telling.

      If he waltzes in Guam, thinking he is in Asia, he will be bitterly disappointed, and will hit a wall. The faithful of Guam are not Asians from Hong Kong, Taiwan or China, who fall nicely in line when told to do something...
      Chamorros and Guamenians are very susceptible, when people try to boss them around.

      In this case, actions will speak really louder than words. Hon knows he is under scrutiny by the secretariat of State. One misstep, and they will not let him forget about it. Plus it might tarnish the reputation of Filoni as well.

      So while they both are close to Kiko, they are not about to jump under a Bus to please him.

      My prediction is that he will try to smooth the bumps on the road, do some cosmetic improvement, and try to save as much as possible for the NCW, while throwing us a few bones.

      Pius and Genarrini will put all the pressure they can to have one of their candidate to replace Apuron. (but recommendations still have to go through the Nuncio, officially)

      No matter what, Apuron's goose is cooked. How graciously he gets out, will depend on what Pius whisper into his ears.

      Better keep your seat belts on, the ride is going to be interesting.

  8. How ironic. Apuron and Adrian cite Canon Law 220 which states "No one is permitted to harm illegitimately the good reputation which a person possesses nor to injure the right of any person to protect his or her own privacy." By this very statement then the Archbishop, Adrian, OJ, Larry Claros and Deacon Tenorio are all guilty of violating 220 for calling the victims liars. I LOVE IT. idiots.

    1. I'm not expert in canon law, but that particular law is applied when an organization or institution claims to be "Catholic" in a diocese. CCOG is "catholics," not Catholic as in the Church.

      Sorta like how Warner Bros. sued the Marx Brothers for copyright infringement over their movie "A Night in Casablanca" just after "Casablanca" came out. The Marx Brothers then sued Warner Bros for copyright infringement over the word "Bros."

  23. The only legitimate way to silence the opposition is to engage in a dialogue, CCOG tried several times without success to meet with Apuron and as many times ignored. Tommy Tanaka to Archdiocese, your group will be the last people to deny me of my Faith. Good Luck, Make your next move, I dare you!!!!!!!! You have lost the Moral Authority to issue edicts.

  24. It reeks of a typical NCW tactic. They bark orders and the followers are supposed to obey. Followers of the NCW have few rights and I guess they feel they can impose that way of thinking on the rest of the laity. Now they are prohibiting freedom of speech to the laity belonging to the CCOG and next they will prohibit you from visiting family on the mainland without permission, which is what got me started on my research of this NCW insanity. If this is what the Roman Catholic Church is all about, excommunication will not be necessary; people will be walking away faster than they already are.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Obviously written by a lawyer, trained in legal speak. Whereas language is used in memorandums of understanding/agreement. Does this hold water with the appointment of Archbishop Hon? At face value the document is a prelim to excommunication. Ironically it indicts the fools on the hill.

  29. Why Sunday? Because he was still the active Ordinary on Sunday but not today.

    Wow. This is something, and for myself, I'm going to say something unpopular.

    Until he is no longer the Ordinary and his authority no longer sufficient to issue or enforce this, then to violate it seems morally risky to me at best. Appeal certainly, and while I don't give a damn about any moral authority of his (as in, I wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire), nevertheless while apostolic succession is a reality, then that authority remains, and unless we are to become de facto Protestants who shun ecclesial authority bc of their horrible abuse of power (like that dicknuts Luther did), we have to bear this in mind patiently.

    They WANT Tim and Gerry and a lot of the rest of us excommunicated, or even just receiving an interdict that requires us to abstain from the sacraments. It would never ever ever stand and be the biggest media disaster in the world for the Church on an international scale (imagine this headline in Le Monde and the Times: “Church Excommunicates Catholics for Accusing Pedophile Bishop”). But it would also be the most painful thing I can imagine in my own life. Faithful priests have been silenced in the past, even put in prison, only to become saints and cardinals later. Courage no matter what you decide.

    This edict does nothing to silence anyone. It just attempts to give them an angle by which to leverage control. The Church long ago stopped being about faith, hope, and love for Pius and his disciples. It’s about power—a doctrine he speaks well with the voice of his master the devil.

    Still, I may be wrong on how to proceed, and rather hope I am. Tim and Frenchie, I'm all ears.

    Yes, it is an egregious abuse of power, but my sense of this that if we resist the edict and give the Ordinary the big F.U., then Apuron and Adrian are given ammunition to say to those over them, "See, these are a stiff-necked people. I've done nothing wrong; they are merely malicious and obedient.

    It's all lies of course. But a more terrifying thought occurs to me. He's gone beyond oppressing his own faithful. He's declared war on his own flock. Bishop Sheen used to say that priests don't abandon their priesthood bc they are greedy; they abandon it bc they cease to believe in the Eucharist. One look at Pius, Apuron, and Adrian--not just their sacrilegious meal but their lives and authority in action--proves this is the case.

    My the Suffering Lord forgive them. Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us.

  38. This joke of a “decree” is like getting a decree from a murderer’s accomplice! You do know don't you, Anthony Apuron and Adrian Cristobal, that The 6th Commandment of God which reads: “Thou shall not kill” is not just limited to crimes of physical murders but also refers to "the killing and murdering" of an individual’s character and reputation but especially, it is the crime of the murder and destruction of a human being’s God-given dignity and sanctity! Everyone is created and made in the Image and Likeness of God -- so are altar boys!

    The victims of physical murder at least, aren't around to endure any level of physical or mental suffering after their physical death; but victims of sexual abuse, molestation and sodomy have to carry this heavy, destructive, mental anguish and pain which is a psychological demise they will endure for as long as they live!

Just as the ncw’s and other protestant religion’s form and norm of distributing and receiving communion an illegitimate and unauthentic form and manner of distributing and receiving the Real Presence of Jesus in the Consecrated Host in Holy Communion and in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, so is this so-called “decree” an outlandish, invalid, worthless, unbinding, non-credible, useless, illusory, dishonest, unconscionable, preposterous, nonsensical and a crackpot-ish “decree”!

    I don’t even WANT TO, NEED TO nor HAVE TO read it since it comes from “the NCW”-- which itself, should be “decreed null and void and decreed out of existence”!

  44. Is there no end to the absurdity of those in the Chancery? Just when I think they can't do anything more malicious and desperate, they pull out another unfounded claim. I believe this is an attempt to instill fear upon those of us who have spoken out against the archbishop. As laity, we have every right to stand up to injustices and heresies that we've witnessed. And we don't need the permission of those who drink from the kaka kool aid to call ourselves Catholic. This latest declaration just proves how far down the rabbit hole these people have fallen, and when I say "these people," I'm referring to those who have played any role in the press releases issued by the Chancery. These press releases, by the way, are the laughing stock of so many people, including the media.

  45. Wonder how they determined that CCOG is a "prohibited society" when the fools on the hill never even talked to their officers, when the officers requested to talk to Apuron about what they can do to help him! I think they looked in the mirror and saw CCOG?! What goes around comes around. This decree is going to boomerang back to the fools on the hill and their "associates" in the Ylig Valley hotel. You are the ones violating your own sexual abuse policy; provision of Canon Law requiring consent to alienate the Ylig Valley Hotel to the NCW. Everything they say on the Hill reflects on themselves! Apuron was cleaning up the Church, that is why the CCOG and Tim Rohr are attacking him?!! Go fly a kite! These guys on the hill are narcissists. They cannot see any wrong in what they do. Archbishop Hon, please get rid of them and remove all of them from any position of authority, including Apuron, who is a disgrace to our Church.

How else can we explain this desperation?

There should be no fear if there is no reason to fear.

    The Novacamachomenal Path, also known as the Novacamachomenate, NCP or, colloquially, The Path, is an organization within the church dedicated to the Christian formation of people. It was formed in Guam in 2016 by Andrew Camacho, a disgruntled and disgusted (some would say disgusting) catholic.

  57. The Novacamachomenate Path Part Two: Invitation to Jive

    On the fourth Sunday of every even numbered month during a non-leap year, or the third Sunday of every odd numbered month during a leap year, except when there occurs two full moons in said month in which case it shall be on the second Sunday of the month, a member of the NCP will interrupt a Sunday worship service in a Guam church and present the Invitation to Jive.

    The Invitation to Jive calls the faithful to attend nightly meetings in which singing and dancing is shared among the attendees. The meetings last approximately nine hours. However a person may be excused after five hours with a valid note from a cardiac or neurosurgeon.

    1. I can see now that before I joined the Path, I had a naturalistic sense of rhythm - my whole family would bump into each other as we walked down the street, so poor was our timing...and we were only a threepiece then.

      Now, thanks to the miracle of the Path, God has brought us into a full twelve piece ensemble with a horns section, and though I'm only at the tamborine phase (the first rung), minim by minim, my rhythm is becoming more Christian.

      I hope one day to "jump up" (spin around and do the splits) and offer myself as a candidate in the RSM (the Rad Music School).

  58. The Novacamachomenate Path Part Three: Scrutiny

    During the course of trudging through the Path members undergo a number of scrutinies. The number varies from member to member, depending on how screwed up they are. It can range from one scrutiny to approximately 97, give or take a few (more take than give).

    The Primary Scrutiny (sometimes called Scru-U-tiny) consists mostly of demonstrations of physical strength and endurance (weight lifting, triathlon, tightrope walking, and the like). Those who pass the primary scrutiny are rewarded with a happy meal and get to play "toss the check book in the bin." Those who fail the primary scrutiny are taken into the woods for a little lecture.
