FUNNY QUOTES

FUNNY QUOTES-1

The following is a collection of quotes and responses from the Archdiocese of Agana Media Release, June 3, 2016, sent out by Adrian Cristobal, Chancellor.

ADRIAN CRISTOBAL: The Archbishop is being persecuted because he is cleaning up the Church we all love.

TIM ROHR: "Cleaning up the Church'?? Who made it dirty? Who has been the archbishop for 30 years?

ADRIAN CRISTOBAL: Let us make our the words of Saint Paul in his letter to the Ephesians, “Stay firm and let the truth be the belt around your waist.”

TIM ROHR: LOL. Apparently the belt around the waist of little boys was exactly what your boss loved to take off.

FUNNY QUOTES-2

ADRIAN CRISTOBAL: Tim Rohr however had a personal interest in this plan and was supposed to be involved in this multi-million dollar sale as a real estate mediator. 

TIM ROHR: Very funny for me. Not so funny for Adrian when he has to prove this in a court of law or perjure himself. Talk about WALK INTO THIS. Apuron's victims may not want to sue for money, but I do. And I'm going to wring you and Tony boy dry. 

FUNNY QUOTES-3

ADRIAN CRISTOBAL: "...in his official capacity as the former Archdiocesan Financial Officer, Mr. Martinez, unbeknownst to the Archbishop, failed for six consecutive years to submit the required annual financial reports to the proper authorities at the Vatican." 

TIM ROHR: It is the the responsibility of the diocesan finance officer to submit financial reports directly to the Ordinary (the diocesan bishop), NOT the Vatican. The finance officer had no authority to submit such a report to "authorities at the Vatican." He can only submit the report to the bishop who then submits the report to "authorities at the Vatican." 

Thus, the Apostolic Delegate wrote Apuron on June 15, 2011:
…since I have been here, I have never received a financial report from the Archdiocese of Agana. Therefore, I request a copy of at least the most recent financial report that was made. If there is none, please have a report prepared for the last fiscal year. - Archbishop Charles D. Balvo, Apostolic Delegate. 
Archbishop Balvo was appointed Delegate to our Region in 2005, one year before Steve Martinez was appointed the archdiocesan finance officer. But the really damning evidence that Adrian Cristobal is a LIAR (as if we need another one) is Balvo's letter to Apuron of March 7, 2012 wherein he writes:
With my letter of August 21, 2007, I brought this fact to the attention of the Ordinaries of both the New Zealand Catholic Bishops Conference and of the Episcopal Conference of the Pacific (CEPAC). I am attaching a copy of that letter and of the norms to be followed in preparing the financial statement. I noted that, as of that time, I had not received such a statement from the Archdiocese of Agana. 
We see here that Apuron had received a personal reminder from the Apostolic Delegate in 2007 regarding the "norms to be followed in preparing the financial statement." Yet, in 2011 and again in 2012, Balvo admonishes Apuron that he has NEVER received a financial statement from him. 

The Apostolic Delegate did not write Steve Martinez. The Apostolic Delegate wrote Archbishop Apuron, in 2007, 2011, and 2012, telling him to prepare and submit the required financial report. Apuron did NOT submit the report. In fact Apuron NEVER submitted ANY report. 

And why did Apuron NOT do this? It would have been very simple for him to request his finance officer to prepare the report for Apuron to submit (since only he can submit it). But he did not. Why not? Could it be that Apuron did not want the Vatican to see what he was doing with our money and theirs?

The next part of the Apostolic Delegate's letter tells us that it was also "their" money ("subsidies granted") they wanted an accounting of. 
Last year, with my letter of June 15, I sent you a copy of the circular letter from the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples regarding certain rules that govern both the subsidies granted by the Pontifical Mission Societies and diocesan finances in general. A copy is attached. Once again, I noted that I had not received a financial statement from the Archdiocese of Agana. 
As early as 2007 Apuron received a direct reminder from the Apostolic Delegate to submit a financial report, yet Apuron did not, did not, did not. And now The Adrian wants us to believe that it was Steve Martinez who was "incompetent." 

It's a LIE. Adrian knows it's a LIE. Adrian's whole life is a LIE. And now Steve Martinez can sue him too. LOL. Adrian. You are the joke everyone has always known you to be. Thanks for the proof. 

FUNNY QUOTES-4

ADRIAN CRISTOBAL: The Archbishop has always taken very seriously any allegations, and even rumors, of sexual abuse and acted on them:…this is what he did when he limited the faculties of Fr. John Wadeson following the surfacing of an old unproven allegation (subsequently cleared by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles).

TIM ROHR: I made known the allegations against John Wadeson in a post on July 16, 2014 after he criticized my earlier posting of an audio recording of the clergy meeting with the visiting Apostolic Delegate. Wadeson's email lectured the other clergy about "breaking communion" and gave the usual sop about Apuron that all of his neo-subjects give him.

I happened to know that Wadeson had a particular interest in defending Apuron. Apuron had quietly given him refuge from his past, incardinating him into this diocese when his record of alleged sex abuse would have kept him from being incardinated in any other diocese.  Also, Wadeson was a phantom priest. He was given the position of "formator" at RMS and thus put on salary, but he was never here. He lived in San Francisco where he "ministered" to neocatecumenal communities. 

I had known of Wadeson's record for quite awhile and never intended to bring it up. But his chastising his fellow clergy and his shot at me for posting the recording of the meeting with the Delegate changed my mind and I posted the following notice from the Archdiocese of Los Angeles: 
The following clergy have no faculties to minister (no permission to exercise the priestly office) in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Please call the Parish Office and/or the Vicar for Clergy Office should they present themselves for any ministry here. 

Rev. John Howard Wadeson Archdiocese of Agaña, Guam
And said "the Archbishop owes us an explanation." 

He owed us an explanation because the allegations against Wadeson had been known since the Los Angeles Times published them in 2004, which was about the time Wadeson was incardinated by Apuron. A background check would have turned them up, but Wadeson and Apuron are neo's, so no background checks for them. 

And for sure, Apuron was aware of Wadeson's record because that's when he got a call from the Archdiocese of Los Angeles:
In 2011, Wadeson asked the Los Angeles archdiocese for authorization to minister once more in Los Angeles because he was traveling in California. The archdiocese refused and contacted archdiocese officials in Guam after learning he was working there, said archdiocese attorney Michael Hennigan. He said he did not know what was done with the information.
In fact, in this PNC news report from July 22, 2014, Cristobal himself admitted to having already known about the allegations against Wadeson but that "the Archdiocese" had brushed them off saying "there were only allegations." 

LOL. So much for Cristobal saying"The Archbishop has always taken very seriously any allegations, and even rumors, of sexual abuse and acted on them."

Apuron knew about the allegations against Wadeson from at least 2011, but only acted on them AFTER I made them known on my blog THREE YEARS LATER and Wadeson became an embarrassment to him. 

And as for Adrian's claim that the allegations were "subsequently cleared by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles." That's another Adrian lie. Here's the statement from Los Angeles published in its newspaper on April 15, 2015:
In relation to accusation first made in 1992 concerning alleged sexual misconduct in the 1970’s against Father Wadeson, then a member of the Society of the Divine Word, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles is aware that the allegation was investigated by the Society at the time and was not verified.  
No settlement was offered or paid by the archdiocese or, as far as it knows, by the society. Having reviewed the documentation presented by Father Wadeson, and following the 2014 reexamination, the archdiocese has concluded that there is no reason to preclude Father Wadeson from serving in priestly ministry.  
https://www.scribd.com/doc/313491672/Wadeson-Statement-From-Los-Angeles 
Does anybody see anything in this statement that says Wadeson was "cleared" of the charges? 

No. 

Here's what you see:
  1. Los Angeles is only aware that Wadeson's Society did an investigation "at the time" (in the 1970's). Los Angeles itself did NOT do an investigation. 
  2. The Society "at the time" did not verify the charges (no surprise given the financial liability of the Society if the charges were verified)
  3. Los Angeles ONLY reviewed documentation PRESENTED BY FATHER WADESON (they looked no further than what Wadeson gave them)
  4. Los Angeles concluded that there was "no reason to preclude" Wadeson from ministry. 
Wadeson was NEVER cleared of the charges. Los Angeles simply said they didn't find anything after reviewing what Wadeson showed them. LOL! 

Never mind Wadeson, the crook here is Cristobal, once again lying, lying, lying to you and me. BTW, Adrian, I'm sure Wadeson is glad that you and others keep bringing up his name so I can keep telling the truth, over and over and over. Good luck in finding "another bishop who will take you." Your time here is short.
