an open letter to Father John Looby editor of the Jesuit magazine The Messenger

Dear Father Looby.
Enjoyed your editorial in the May edition of The Messenger.
I was a bit nonplussed to see an Imprimi Potest from Archbishop Diarmuid Martin on your magazine.
Is the approval of Archbishop Diarmuid Martin really necessary for what you write?
Does anyone seriously think Archbishop Diarmuid Martin is an appropriate arbiter of Catholicity?
My own assessment of Archbishop Diarmuid Martin is quite critical.
I find his behaviour in the last six months deeply disquieting.
I think it is clear that Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, for motives of his own, has attempted to remove a generation of Bishops from office through the simple expedient of arbitrarily ascribing guilt to them and then denying them the right to speak in defence of themselves.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin began ascribing limitless guilt to Bishops and denying them a right to speak for themselves, after the publication of feminist atheist Judge Yvonne Murphy's delusional report into the Catholic Church's management of old child abuse cases.
Many of us were already quite familiar with the cases in her report as accounts of them had been recycled through the anti Catholic media in one form or another for over thirty years.
At the same time the anti Catholic Irish Times, Independent Newspapers and RTE, had simply chosen to ignore the 99.99 percent of sex abuse cases arising in sports clubs, State run homes, Doctor Barnardo's orphanages, and family households, all at the hands of non Christians.
They didn't tell a single lie.
They just ignored 99.99 percent of the truth.
Sex abuse victims are important.
But to The Irish Times, Independent Newspapers and RTE, some sex abuse victims are more important than others.
Particularly the 0.01 percent of victims who could be used by the atheistic media to contrive a new persecution of the Catholic Church.
According to Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, any Bishop so much as mentioned by Yvonne Murphy in her report, would have to resign immediately.
This was a grotesque power play on the part of Archbishop Diarmuid Martin.
Nothing more.
Nothing less.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's acceptance of the blanket ascription of guilt by innuendo towards Bishops who had served the people of Ireland for a lifetime, and who now were being targeted in their old age by an out of control liberal atheistic Judiciary and Media intent on dechristianising Ireland, this trahesion of the Bishops by Archbishop Diarmuid Martin I say, was blatent, deceitful and evil.
The standard of guilt contrived by Yvonne Murphy for use against Bishops, was not to be applied to any other sector of Irish society.
So the sectors of society in which the vast majority of child abuse cases occurred and are occurring, namely the Health Board sector, the schools sector, the sports and recreation sector, and the family home sector, these zones of rampant sexual abuse, these malign dungeons of our society where children continue to be tortured, violated and murdered, at a rate never before seen in this country, these offal ridden palaces of pious State sector satanism, these were not to be touched at all by Yvonne Murphy's new standard of guilt.
Only the Catholic Church was to be tarred and feathered with Yvonne Murphy's liberal atheistic brush.
The Bishops were being vilified.
Vilified by decree.
And Archbishop Diarmuid Martin was a part of this campaign of vilification from the start.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's every utterance about his brother Bishops was designed to deprive them of their most basic rights under the law.
If Archbishop Diarmuid Martin prevailed there would in fact be no law.
Anyone mentioned in a Judicial report could be ruined overnight.
Tyranny is arbitrary.
This whole show trial, a show trial without any of the appurtenances of a real trial except for the pronouncement of the sentences of guilt via Yvonne Murphy and Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, this travesty of a mockery of a sham of a trial, this my friend, was truly vile.
It is less than a year since Archbishop Diarmuid Martin leapt into action with media press releases designed to force the resignation of Bishops mentioned in feminist Judge Yvonne Murphy's deeply manipulative, hugely dishonest, crassly dishonorable, report.
Yvonne Murphy's report retrospectively contrived, constructed and ascribed guilt to Bishops for their attempts to handle old sex abuse cases discreetly.
Yvonne Murphy invented her own notions of guilt, applied them haphazardly to Bishops, and failed to apply them to any other sector of society.
Hitler always said if you're going to tell a lie, tell a big one.
This whole media campaign against the Catholic Church, with Archbishop Diarmuid Martin and Yvonne Murphy cheerleading all the way, was one Big White Shining Lie.
This invention of a new type of guilt, that is to say guilt for not doing what Yvonne Murphy or Archbishop Diarmuid Martin says should have been done, allows for the arbitrary persecution of anybody Yvonne Murphy, or Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, wishes to ruin.
I tell you they are seeking to destroy the church.
But they won't stop with the church.
Let me be clear.
In my view Yvonne Murphy and Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's media campaign against the Bishops has been nothing less than a persecution of the church.
That's all it is.
That's all it was.
That's all it ever will be.
It's not murder exactly.
But it's close.
It's the murder of reputations.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin arranged a kangaroo court sitting with the Supreme Pontiff in Rome a few months ago.
Irish Bishops were summoned to attend a meeting at which Archbishop Diarmuid Martin and his allies in the liberal media sought to engineer their humiliation.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin failed in this attempt only because Cardinal Sean Brady finally jumped ship and refused to back him at the last minute.
Previously Cardinal Brady appeared to be supporting Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's manoeuvreings.
I think perhaps Cardinal Brady had an attack of conscience.
What happened next is instructive.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin stormed out of the meeting he had himself convened.
He rushed back to Ireland to begin a media spin operation against the Bishops.
The same Bishops he had promised before the Pope, to support.
This was worse than arrogance.
This was malign.
And worse was to come.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's media allies now began a campaign against Cardinal Sean Brady.
They sought to label Cardinal Brady a concealer of child abuse.
The media campaign against Cardinal Brady was deceitful, cynical and foul.
Twas the vengeance of the little yellow god.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin would let nothing stand in his way.
Another reputation murdered.
Leaving the way clear for Archbishop Diarmuid Martin to move from Number Two in the Irish Catholic Church hierarchy to presumptive Number One.
And now this week Archbishop Diarmuid Martin has launched yet another media blitzkrieg against his perceived enemies in the church.
In a mendacious statement delivered to a meeting of the Knights of Columbanus, and repeated live on the national broadcaster RTE, Archbishop Diarmuid Martin claimed that "dark forces" within the Catholic Church were conspiring to conceal child abuse.
It was a smear.
A smear of anyone who dared to express even the mildest reservations about the behaviour of Archbishop Diarmuid Martin.
While being eulogised on RTE, Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's mendacious smear received simultaneous laudatory front page coverage on the anti Catholic newspapers The Irish Times and The Irish Independent.
Aside from Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, no other prelate in the history of the Catholic Church has received such favourable coverage from our virulently viciously anti Catholic media groups.
The reason Archbishop Diarmuid Martin receives such adulatory coverage from the liberal whore masters of The Irish Times, Independent Newspapers and RTE, is that he is one of them.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin is a part of their conspiracy.
A part of their persecution.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin is an infiltrating liberal atheistic progressive intent on remaking the Irish Catholic Church in his own image.
I ask you to remember the fact that during the Cold War, the Soviet Union, infiltrated communist agents into Catholic Churches all across Europe.
One such infiltrator a few months ago almost became head of the Catholic Church in Poland but was unmasked a day before his inauguration.
Do we seriously think it can't happen here?
It has happened.
It has happened before our very eyes.
It is happening now.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's blatent spiteful malignancy in trying to destroy the legacy, witness and reputation, of an entire generation of Irish Christians make no sense in any other context, except as the work of a leftist infiltrator.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's latest egregious falsehoods about dark forces seeking to undermine the church are a classic piece of Marxian class conflict agit prop.Archbishop Diarmuid Martin's machiavellian ambitions to hijack our ancient and true religion, now threaten a schism within the Irish Catholic Church.

I note that Archbishop Diarmuid Martin is a brother of the atheistic, pro Soviet former political editor of The Irish Times, Seamus Martin.

Archbishop Diarmuid Martin looks like a Soviet spy, he walks like a Soviet spy, he quacks like a Soviet spy, and he's the brother of a Soviet spy.

By demonising those of us who have become rightly and justly concerned about his alliance with Independent Newspapers, The Irish Times, RTE and Judge Yvonne Murphy, Archbishop Diarmuid Martin is seeking to devolve limitless power into his own hands.
I put it to you.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin is himself the proxy infiltrator for dark forces in Irish society, to wit elements of the Judiciary, the media, politicians and wholly unaccountable Civil Service elites, who have long sought to eviscerate Catholicism from the life of the nation.
Father Looby there was a time when the Jesuits were willing to risk their lives so that the Catholic faith might not be erased from the hearts and minds and souls of Europe and the world.
Is that time really so long past?
