Jihad Watch

Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Florida bishop blames Orlando jihad massacre on Catholic ‘contempt’ for homosexuality

Jun 14, 2016 10:40 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Along comes Florida Bishop Robert Lynch to absolve the Islamic jihad ideology that threatens our public safety and endeavors to force terror and subjugation upon us.

Lynch stated in a blogpost that Catholicism “targets” and “often breeds contempt for gays, lesbians and transgender people.” The seed of contempt, he said, turns into hatred, “which can ultimately lead to violence.” Unless this attitude changes, he states, “we can expect more Orlandos.”

Islamic jihad terror was responsible for the deadliest mass shooting on American soil at the Pulse Nightclub, when Omar Mateen pledged his allegiance to ISIS and gunned down his victims. Not Catholicism.

Jihad Watch has been reporting on radicalized mosques and Islamic societies nearby, and exposing their disdain for and calls for violence against homosexuals, which is rooted in traditional Islamic teachings about homosexuality. This is why the killings of homosexuals is sanctioned in Islamic states.

Mateen clearly had murderous tendencies, as it is now reported that he threatened to bring a gun into his elementary school and kill everyone when he was only 10 years old. Omar also cheered as terrorists flew jumbo jets into the Twin Towers on 9/11, according to former classmates. His proclivity for violence was nurtured by Islamic jihad doctrine and counsel and ultimately found expression at the Pulse nightclub through his killing spree. Yet Bishop Lynch Robert Lynch blames the Catholic Church in its disapproval of homosexual acts for the brutal slaughter.

Faith and free speech are human rights to practice in our societies. The Catholic Church is not inciting violence and hatred toward gays from the pulpits today. Lynch is demonizing, accusing and attempting to marginalize those in the Church who believe that homosexuality is wrong but who have no intention or desire to bring any harm to gays; and as an opportunist, he chose the worst tragedy to drive his agenda.

To think that a man of the cloth would exonerate the evil of Islamic jihad ideology and heap its guilt on the back of his own Church is ghastly at best.

Since Bishop Lynch parades as a Christian, he just may be interested in what Proverbs 17: 17 states (or maybe not): “He that justifies the wicked, and he that condemns the just, even they both are an abomination to the LORD.”  Back to the secular realms now, Lynch’s view is an abomination to his faith, an abomination to society and an abomination to the truth. He has earned a place on the elite list of useful idiots.

“Florida Bishop Blames Orlando Massacre on Catholic ‘Contempt’ for Homosexuality,” Breitbart, by Thomas D. Williams, June 14 2016:

The Catholic Bishop of St. Petersburg, Fla, has blamed Catholic disapproval of homosexual acts for the brutal slaughter of 49 people in the Pulse nightclub on Sunday.

In a blogpost Monday, Bishop Robert Lynch said that Catholicism “targets” and “often breeds contempt for gays, lesbians and transgender people.” The seed of contempt, he said, turns into hatred, “which can ultimately lead to violence.” Unless this attitude changes, he states, “we can expect more Orlandos.”

In his post, the bishop made no attempt to explain how a 29-year-old Muslim who never stepped foot in a Catholic Church would have been motivated to carry out his deed by a supposed Catholic “contempt” for homosexuality.

Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, the Catholic Church teaches that homosexual acts are “intrinsically disordered” but that homosexual persons “must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity” and that every “sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided.”

It is “religion,” Lynch wrote, “including our own, which targets, mostly verbally, and also often breeds contempt for gays, lesbians and transgender people. Attacks today on LGBT men and women often plant the seed of contempt, then hatred, which can ultimately lead to violence.”

Regarding the shooter’s affiliation with Islam, the bishop said that Muslims wishing to enter the country should not be treated differently than people of any other faith, which would be “un-American,” adding that there are “as many good, peace loving and God fearing Muslims to be found as Catholics or Methodists or Mormons or Seventh Day Adventists.”….

    Bishop Robert Lynch needs an education starting with Matthew 15:14. He should not attempt to guide when he is blind.

    • mortimer says

      Jun 14, 2016 at 11:26 am

      Blind? Yes. Western elites are blind, even in the church. They wish to make policy about Islam without having done the READING LIST of foundational Islamic source texts: the Sira, hadiths, manuals of Sharia, canonical commentaries and Koran.

      Preposterously, unread and uninformed elites like Florida Bishop Robert Lynch present themselves as authorities on Islam when they have a gaping lacuna of knowledge about Islam.

      Churches must urgently commission theologians to do in depth studies of jihad. The church can no longer afford to be complacent and talk OFF THE TOP OF THEIR HEAD like Florida Bishop Robert Lynch has done.

        You and I haven’t studied Islam and we both know how dangerous it is so why do you think that this bishop needs to study Islam to learn what we know?
        I don’t understand why excuses are still offered for these traitors. Saying how they don’t know is giving them an excuse to betray us. THEY DO KNOW. They know a lot more than you and I know but they are part of the evil that is trying to engulf us.

          In law, when you purposefully fail to ‘know’, you’re liable for that.

          We most often see this turn up in Product Liability cases. You know: A pharmacological corp. wants to make tons of $ from a new drug. But they deliberately don’t do sufficient R&D (research and development) so as not to know side effects of said drug. When people are then injured, they try to defend by saying ‘We didn’t know’.

          Fail.

          In your post, you practically stated the law governing ‘reasonableness’, which governs every single action we all take in our daily lives!

          If Bp. Lynch is held to a ‘reasonable person’ standard-and he is-then we would say, ‘he knew or should have known.’

        You expect them to read Sharia when their own seminary textbooks are watered down with liberal wishy-washy nonsense and they don’t deign to read even those? Thanks to their indoctrination in seminary, even if he were to read Sharia, he’d be gushing in admiration.
        Secondly, this man is not a bishop and his institution is not “the Catholic Church”.

        Blind leaders leading the blind…. Jesus predicted this. There is no cure – they will be bedfellows with whatever political party is in power or the prevailing ideas in vogue. Good example is Putin and his love affair with the Russian Orth. Church – all other religions are presently being persecuted. Revelation predicted politicized religion and how governments would later on turn against them because of “security issues”. Rev 17 + 18. The harlot is riding the beast….

      “For several years, Mateen regularly attended the Islamic Center of Fort Pierce and was there as recently as two days ago, said Imam Shafiq Rahman on Sunday.

          Bishop Lynch paid $100,000 to a male aid in 2002 after the aid claimed the bishop sexually harassed him. Former diocesan spokesman Bill Urbanski claimed in 2001 that Bp. Lynch had made improper sexual advances toward him. The diocese opened an investigation into the claims in fall of 2001, which concluded that “there was nothing to substantiate the allegations.” Bishop Lynch himself denied the charges.

      There were very, very few pedophiles in the scandal Mark. But there were TONS of homosexuals, and still are. I don’t doubt for one minute that this ‘Bishop’ is one who runs a homo ‘seminary’, and totally gives a green light to homosexuality.

      The ‘pedophilia’ #’s were so inflated because those who already hated the Church so intensely-the drive by media-were/are great lovers of the homosexual perversion. So they couldn’t attack that, which would have been entirely accurate. Ergo, ‘pedophilia’…

      You’re completely right, tho’, about the $ involved in these ‘refugee’ scams. Those of us who are members of the conservative Latin-Rite arm of the Church don’t give one penny to Catholic Charities, the USCCB (US Catholic Council of Bishops), etc.

There are many more radical Jesuits, who are taking up the chant ( Ally Hoo Actbad), & preaching the love of homosexuality & Pedophilia, which are bulwarks of Islam. The Knights of Columbus should pay a discreet visit to this unCatholic Bishop & fast.

    Another diversionary tactic by a muslim apologist, that Catholic bishop. It’s sort of a one-two punch in defense of islam. First, blame religion in general not islam, and that becomes his defense for telling us muslims shouldn’t be treated differently. But it wasn’t any other religion that inspired this massacre, it was islam. And he’s wrong, muslims should be treated differently, because islam is a violent ideology like no other. Muslims are the importers of that murderous filth, and that makes them deadly different from everyone else. Just something to consider.

I don’t mind a laymen like Milo Yiannopoulos who honestly says he knows church teaching and homosexuality are in conflict and that it might take a lifetime to for him to figure these things out. On the other hand, I am fed up with priests and bishops who teach one thing and do another.

    Bishop Lynch, the attack was caused by SHARIA LAW, not be Roman Catholics. Here’s why:

    Punishment of Gays Punishment of Homosexuals
    https://islamqa.info/en/38622

    Quotes:
    “The crime of homosexuality is one of the greatest of crimes, the worst of sins and the most abhorrent of deeds, and Allaah punished those who did it in a way that He did not punish other nations.

    The Sahaabah were unanimously agreed on the execution of homosexuals, but they differed as to how they were to be executed. Some of them were of the view that they should be burned with fire, which was the view of ‘Ali (may Allaah be pleased with him) and also of Abu Bakr (may Allaah be pleased with him), as we shall see below. And some of them thought that they should be thrown down from a high place then have stones thrown at them. This was the view of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him).

    Some of them thought that they should be stoned to death, which was narrated from both ‘Ali and Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with them).

    After the Sahaabah, the fuqaha’ differed concerning the matter. Some of them said that the homosexual should be executed no matter what his situation, whether he is married or not.

    Some of them said that he should be punished in the same way as an adulterer, so he should be stoned if he is married and flogged if he is not married.

    Some of them said that a severe punishment should be carried out on him, as the judge sees fit.”

  19. Dum Spiro says

    Jun 14, 2016 at 11:54 am

    Here is the full verbatim paragraph of Bishop Lynch’s blog post:

    “Second, sadly it is religion, including our own, which targets, mostly verbally, and also often breeds contempt for gays, lesbians and transgender people. Attacks today on LGBT men and women often plant the seed of contempt, then hatred, which can ultimately lead to violence. Those women and men who were mowed down early yesterday morning were all made in the image and likeness of God. We teach that. We should believe that. We must stand for that. Without yet knowing who perpetrated the PULSE mass murders, when I saw the Imam come forward at a press conference yesterday morning, I knew that somewhere in the story there would be a search to find religious roots. While deranged people do senseless things, all of us observe, judge and act from some kind of religious background. Singling out people for victimization because of their religion, their sexual orientation, their nationality must be offensive to God’s ears. It has to stop also.”

    Maybe seeing the entire quote in context can help it a little bit more…

      He is making an equivalence between Catholic teaching on homosexuality and that of Islam. He should read the Catechism of the Catholic Church, summarizes this teaching and specifically rejects any victimization or discrimination of people with a homosexual tendency. Why does he state: “I knew that somewhere in the story there would be a search to find religious roots?. He did not distinguish between Christianity and Islam in the statement, as he only uses the word “religious”. He then states: “all of us observe, judge and act from some kind of religious background”. Again reading between the lines, we can also see that he is referring to the above mentioned false equvalence. Besides, because Mateen committed a mas murder doesn’t necessarily mean that he was deranged. In fact, according to acquiantances of his, he was homosexual, and often attended the Pulse nightclub.

  20. Alarmed Pig Farmer says

    Jun 14, 2016 at 12:02 pm

    Catholicism “targets” and “often breeds contempt for gays, lesbians and transgender people.” The seed of contempt, he said, turns into hatred, “which can ultimately lead to violence.” Unless this attitude changes, he states, “we can expect more Orlandos.”

    This syllogism has logic and is tight. My vote is to shut down all Catholic churches, or at least put armed monitors in them during Masses. Also, surveil nuns, priests and yes, even bishops and archbishops, along with known Catholic activists, like the dude who teaches Bible Study classes after Mass. The country is all fished up with Catholics, so this will require tens of thousands of new state and federal officers, but we need the jobs to offset all the robotized processes entering the economy now.

      He is making an equivalence between Catholic teaching on homosexuality and that of Islam. He should read the Catechism of the Catholic Church, summarizes this teaching and specifically rejects any victimization or discrimination of people with a homosexual tendency. Why does he state: “I knew that somewhere in the story there would be a search to find religious roots?. He did not distinguish between Christianity and Islam in the statement, as he only uses the word “religious”. He then states: “all of us observe, judge and act from some kind of religious background”. Again reading between the lines, we can also see that he is referring to the above mentioned false equvalence. Besides, because Mateen committed a mas murder doesn’t necessarily mean that he was deranged. In fact, according to acquiantances of his, he was homosexual, and often attended the Pulse nightclub.

    Ah yes, and of course unlike Catholics, Muslims are SO accepting and tolerating of homosexuality. From a previous post… This from Reuters just last month tells a rather different story…”A group of 51 Muslim states has blocked 11 gay and transgender organizations from attending a high-level meeting at the United Nations next month on ending AIDS, sparking a protest by the United States, Canada and the European Union. In February, the 54-member African Group and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation protested six new U.N. stamps promoting LGBT equality”.

    I was shocked by comments of the bishop. I was equally shocked by the revelation that this man is a catholic and that he holds such a position in the catholic church.
    I went to and graduated from a Jesuit High school in Seattle ( Seattle Prep) and I AM PROUD OF IT.
    I am not a Catholic, I am a Greek Orthodox.
    For the School mates and Jesuit Priest, I have no more loving understanding and genuinely wonderful and moral people. They were very accepting of me and ideas. In the catholic Christian classes (actually they taught high moral upbringing and conduct). That discussed homosexuality and gays. And they cautioned us to always follow high moral standards.. that is do not persecute nor discriminate against others of different lifestyles and up bringing. Be respectful to others.

    Now as for this so called bishop> I have no respect for his words nor his depravity for his own faith.

    I recall an old Greek orthodox tradition when you have leaders of the church who have betrayed their tradition and cannons.

    When a bishop disgraced his church: he had his staff taken from his hands, his hat removed, his vespers removed, and beard cut off and grabbed and taken out the front door of the church and tossed out. He would then be you are henceforth banished from the premises and told to never return.

    I think it is time to apply the ancient laws of church and get rid of garbage like this.

    Bishop, just what prayers were being said by Mateen while he was committing murder? Was he reciting the Our Father or perhaps saying the rosary? So what is it about the teachings of Jesus that would make a man believe that killing someone for being gay is the right thing to do? Can you tell me, Bishop, just why do Catholics teach contempt for homosexuals? Why was I raised as a Catholic and not taught this contempt? How have I so grossly misunderstood the mission of Jesus and the reason he willingly let himself be crucified upon the cross? Why was I taught that the shedding of His blood means that ever since that day no other human being need suffer the penalty of death for committing a sin … including homosexuality? How did I get things so wrong, Bishop? .

    Since I have been so totally misguided about Jesus then maybe you can teach me all about Muhammad and his mission. What did Muhammad think about homosexuality and did he consider it a sin? If so, what did he have to say about the punishment for it? Tell me, Bishop, why should I believe Jesus was wrong and Muhammad was right? And tell me where did you lean so much about Islam and why do I know so little about Catholicism even after all these years?

    I feel so ashamed.

      • EamonnDublin says

        Jun 15, 2016 at 9:28 am

        Hi “Linnte”, I trust all is well with you.

        The Muslim population in Dublin and the rest of the Republic of Ireland is quite small, but growing. Whilst they do not appear to have any ill-will towards non-Muslims, most of them make no attempt whatsoever to integrate. The norm for people here when we pass in the street – except for in a city centre – is to acknowledge each other with a “How are you” or “Lovely day” or whatever, and we invariably get a response, even from a complete stranger. However, with immigrants of middle-eastern appearance, it is a waste of time trying to smile or say anything to them, as they totally ignore you. Even if one says “Lovely day” or whatever, the normal response is that they do not even look at you. That is, apart obviously from those who know other local people.

        You might care to google “Ali Selim” (aka “Ali Saleem”) who is the leader of our biggest mosque here. Make your own mind up about what you read there! He always presents as totally against violence, but he NEVER condemns it – even 9/11. The saddest fact is that our government totally refuses to even consider that there might ever be a problem here, and, as is the situation worldwide, if one raises the question of Islamist terrorism, one is an Islamophobe. Our leftist media is mainly responsible for this most irresponsible attitude.

        With regard to “BREXIT”, it is a difficult one. My own belief is that Europe is now too strong, in that it (Europe) makes a lot of the rules. Having said that, I consider that the devil we know is better than the one we don’t – so, I personally, if I had a vote, would vote “remain” for Britain. If Britain leaves, the Irish economy could go either way – we would lose a huge customer in Britain, but we could gain a huge amount of potential business from worldwide entities as THE country in the EC that uses English as its main language. My English friends appear to be pretty well split down the middle – and the vote is next week. I hope they stay.

          Apologies for butting in. I think you will find that the Muslims currently in Ireland are playing the ” Muruna Game” until they reach critical population mass.
          As their numbers increase and they continue to infiltrate Ireland´s political, economic and social structures, Muslims will openly start practicing REAL ISLAM and the Irish could well end up becoming non citizens in their own land, as has happened in every other country the Muslims have invaded.

          Muruna=== blending in with the enemy and surroundings to deceive the kaffirs.

          Jun 15, 2016 at 2:03 pm

          Hi Charli, Yes, I fully agree with you on that. I did not include it in my response because I was asked to comment on what the Muslim situation in Dublin is like at present. There is, of course, no reason as to why there will not be some amongst them who will be radical and who will in time rise to the surface. That is actually why I included a reference to Ali Selim and the two apparent sides of him. There are others who I could also mention.

          Believe me, I have been a “student” of the Islamist problem since prior to 9/11, but, as I referenced in my comment also, one tends to invite the name “Islamophobe” when one raises the spectre. That does not stop me from raising it, but it is indicative of the apathy, disbelief, and “Ah shure it’ll all be grand” attitude which prevails not only here but in most of the world.

    “To think that a man of the cloth will exonerate the evil of Islamic jihadist ideology and heap its guilt on the back of his own Church is ghastly at best.”

    Christine Williams’ words are a well-deserved indictment of the ecclesial response to Islamic savagery, not just in Orlando, but in killing fields located throughout the world. One might appropriately surmise that Pope Francis has designed the disingenuous template with his response to the Orlando massacre:

    “We all hope that ways may be found, as soon as possible, to effectively identify and contrast the causes of such terrible and absurd violence which so deeply upsets the desire for peace of the American people and of the whole of humanity.”

    http://en.radiovaticana.va/news/2016/06/12/pope_francis_decries_orlando_massacre_and_prays_for_victims/1236740

    Marching in step with Pope Francis, Bishop Robert Lynch strained to absolve the very source that incites such barbarism:

    “Without yet knowing who perpetrated the PULSE mass murders, when I saw the Imam come forward at a press conference yesterday morning, I knew that somewhere in the story there would be a search to find religious roots. While deranged people do senseless things, all of us observe, judge and act from some kind of religious background.”

    http://bishopsblog.dosp.org/

    Interestingly, Bishop Lynch is the Bishop of the St. Petersburg Diocese, the same diocese in which Fr. Richard Rosin – principal of St. Petersburg High School – hosted Ahmed Bedier at a school assembly to address his concerns about Islamophobia. Ahmed Bedier is a known supporter of CAIR, the primary front for the Muslim Brotherhood in America. The Investigative Project profiled Bedier as one who publicly supported the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hamas — whose Charter calls for the total destruction of Israel — and Hezbollah.

    http://www.investigativeproject.org/profile/175/ahmed-Bedier

    Christine Williams included the perfect admonishment in her excellent article: “He that justifies the wicked, and he that condemns the just, even they both are an abomination to the LORD.”
    (Proverbs 17: 17)

    Honestly, I would NOT have believed that ANYONE could profess the opinion that the attitudes of rejection and hostility that some Christians – no doubt – have toward homosexuals, are now all of a sudden the cause of ALL the hate against gays in OTHER cultures as well.

    I just never would have thought it possible.
    Never.

    This is just sick, it is revolting, this self-blaming to the point where all logic is left behind.
    These are truly the symptoms of psychopathology, I would even say psychosis – which is desribed as “loss of contact with reality” or “having false beliefs about what is taking place”.

    Saying that, I have now lost faith that these sort of people will EVER come to their senses. No amount of killing by islamists, no amount of evidence that their beliefs are TOTALLY discrepant from reality will do. Somehow they will always find a way to blame themselves, their own religion, their own culture.

    If we as a society are going to rely on the opinions of people who hold the view that everything bad that happens is somehow ALWAYS our “own fault” we will be completely defenceless.
    Someone who is ruled by guilt can’t and won’t defend himself.

    The only hope I have is that there are many people out there who do NOT suffer from this same pathology.

    People of sound mind who can still judge reality for what it is.

And if you are Allah fearing, then you are mandated to subjugate or kill the unbelievers. But if the unbeliever is a Gay, then you skip over the subjugation part and go directly to the killing.

    Hank, if you’re a ‘traditional Catholic’ then you know that homosexuality is a ‘sin which cries out to Heaven for vengeance’, and can NEVER be approved:

    So no: As Catholics, we DON’T ‘have a right to select our lifestyle’; and we DON’T ‘have a need to defend the choices others make’. Finally: Church teaching has nothing whatever to do with ‘liking’ anything.

    A crystal-clear explanation of this matter can be found here. It should be noted: AFTER the courageous priest in this video made this statement, he was BANISHED from his parish and his flock: https://youtu.be/CLAX8UZ9zoc

    As for the ‘poor bishop’: He is the ‘hireling’ condemned in Scripture, because he ‘forsakes his flock’. When this man dies and is judged, he will be held to account, not only for his own soul-but for the souls of ALL he has led astray.

I do NOT support the lifestyle but it is not my job to condemn anybody. Hate the sin but love the sinner. I call him the poor bishop because I understand his sin.

        I’m constantly flummoxed by leftist thought which equates moral condemnation of homosexual acts (Catholic teaching) with murder (islamic teaching).

        Oh wait: leftist ‘thought’. A contradiction in terms.

    Here is what the Church teaches on homosexuality, as found in the Catechism of the Catholic Church:
    Chastity and homosexuality

    2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,141 tradition has always declared that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered.”142 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.

    2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided. These persons are called to fulfill God’s will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord’s Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition.

    2359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity. By the virtues of self-mastery that teach them inner freedom, at times by the support of disinterested friendship, by prayer and sacramental grace, they can and should gradually and resolutely approach Christian perfection.

    Cahtolics don¡t expect other to agree with it, but there is no inivtation to victimization of homosexuals in it. It is consisten with all Catholic teaching about sexuality, which only allows sexual acts within marriage, so it rejects, masturbation, fornication, adultery, homosexuality and pornography. It is consisten and in accordance with what Jesus taught, as well as the Church’s 20 centuries of tradition.
