Bishop Santa to Pope Benedict: Resign!

Bishop Santa to Pope Benedict: Resign!

Incline Village, NV (PRWEB) August 2, 2010

The recent overwhelmingly positive public response to Bishop Santa Claus's taking the Pope to task for his continued moral failure to address urgent children’s issues within the Roman Catholic Church prompts him to call for Pope Benedict XVI to resign.

Bishop Santa believes, "The handwriting is on the wall. The Pope will be called to account." Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court let stand an Oregon appellate court’s decision to deny the Vatican immunity from testifying, regarding an alleged pedophile priest. In addition, Germany, Ireland, Austria, and Belgium are aggressively investigating alleged child abuse by priests. It is only a matter of time before the Pope and Vatican are compelled by law to submit to criminal investigation, perhaps resulting in the Pope’s arrest.

An Atlantic Wire article by Heather Horn (http://www.theatlanticwire.com/opinions/view/opinion/The-Popes-Resignation-A-Possibility-2992) indicates that many already are publicly taking the Pope to task. For example, Maureen McCullough calls for penance to demonstrate serious repentance; Andrew Sullivan proposes an end to celibacy; Sinead O’Connor insists on a ‘full criminal investigation’ of the Vatican; BishopAccountability.org and the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) are helping hold many abusers accountable for their crimes; Richard Dawkins wants the Pope arrested in the UK for ‘crimes against humanity;’ and, Anura Guruge blogs at http://popes-and-papacy.com/wordpress/?p=380 that “Canon 332 S2 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law explicitly permits a Pope to resign.”

Bishop Santa notes, "There is precedent: Pope Gregory XII resigned in 1415, as did Pope Celestine V in 1294." Ostensibly, Pope Gregory XII resigned in order to end the Western Schism, for what he perceived as the greater good of the Church. Pope Benedict XVI has said that Celestine V returned to being a hermitic ascetic monk and praised his simplicity and humility. Celestine was declared a saint in 1313.

"The vast majority of wonderful priests and nuns are suffering from guilt by association with the Pope and some Bishops and Cardinals," Bishop Santa says, "It is long past the time the Pope and Vatican should and could have sent a clear message to parishioners and clergy of all denominations. No one is above the law. We are to love our children, not abuse them." Bishop Santa calls upon the Pope, "to demonstrate his love for God’s children by submitting himself, clergy, and the Vatican to criminal investigation of allegations of child abuse and, as penance for moral failure, to resign as Pope."

Breaking news :President Musharraf quit :Pakistan //hamropalo

Islamabad: Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf resigned on Monday minutes after giving a speech to his country in which he outlined his achievements and flayed attempts to impeach him.

“In last nine years I have worked very hard and faced all challenges. I have withstood every challenge. We have seen growth in everything from GDP to foreign exchange reserve,” he said in his speech.

"I wanted to help the Government but they never listened to me. Now they want to impeach me. No charge will be proved against me. Impeachment will never be right for the country. Impeachment will be defeat to the country.”

"Keeping everything in mind, I have decided to resign. God was always kind (and) we faced every challenge. This day is important for me. I have to take an important decision.”

“I have fought two wars for Pakistan and still have enthusiasm for another.”

Speculation that the former army chief and US ally will resign had been mounting since the coalition government, led by the Pakistan People’s Party, said in August it planned to impeach him.

Prolonged jockeying and uncertainty over Musharraf's position has hurt Pakistan's financial markets and raised concern in Washington and among other allies it is distracting from efforts to control violent militants in the nuclear-armed nation.

The ruling coalition had prepared impeachment charges against Musharraf focusing on violation of the constitution and misconduct. Coalition officials had indicated that Musharraf could quit and avoid impeachment.

Coalition officials said last week Musharraf was ready to quit but was demanding immunity from prosecution. Musharraf seized power in a 1999 coup but has been isolated since his allies lost a February election.

All four provincial assemblies have passed resolutions in recent days pressing him to resign and several old allies have joined the campaign against him.

The political battling over Musharraf's fate has sapped investor confidence and there has been criticism it has taken government attention away from economic problems. Pakistani stocks are near two-year lows, while its currency has lost nearly a quarter of its value this year. Pakistan also faces major fiscal problems, with Saudi Arabia's help critical to defer an estimated $5.9 billion worth of oil payments.

Musharraf likely to resign today, to go into exile

Islamabad: President Pervez Musharraf, under pressure to step down before he is impeached, will address Pakistan at 1300 hrs PST on Monday, an official in the President\'s office told Reuters.

Speculation that the former army chief and firm US ally will resign has been mounting since the coalition government, led by PPP - the party of assassinated former prime minister Benazir Bhutto - said this month it planned to impeach him.

The official in the president\'s office gave no details of Musharraf\'s address, but his Chief Spokesman, retired Major General Rashid Qureshi, was quoted separately as again denying that Musharraf would resign or leave the country.

\"President Musharraf is not going to Saudi Arabia or any other country and he will fight impeachment constitutionally,\" Dawn Television cited Qureshi as saying.

The ruling coalition has prepared impeachment charges against Musharraf focusing on violation of the Constitution and misconduct. Coalition officials have been hoping Musharraf would quit to avoid impeachment while some allies have said he should at least answer charges brought against him before stepping down.

Officials from Saudi Arabia, as well as the United States and Britain, have been involved in negotiations aimed at ending the confrontation between Musharraf and the government.

Coalition officials said last week Musharraf was ready to quit but was demanding immunity from prosecution. All four provincial assemblies have passed resolutions in recent days pressing him to resign and several old allies have joined the campaign against him.

Prolonged jockeying and uncertainty over Musharraf\'s position has hurt Pakistan\'s financial markets and raised concern in Washington and among other allies that it is distracting from efforts to control violent militants in the nuclear-armed nation.

Pakistani stocks are near two-year lows, while its currency has lost nearly a quarter of its value this year. The political battling over Musharraf\'s fate has sapped investor confidence and there has been criticism it has taken government attention away from economic problems.

Pakistan also faces major fiscal problems, with Saudi Arabia\'s help critical to defer an estimated $5.9 billion worth of oil payments.

Musharraf seized power in a 1999 coup but has been isolated since his allies lost a February election.

However, Musharraf\'s once-considerable power has eroded significantly since parties opposed to his rule swept the parliamentary elections this year.

Since last week, the new ruling coalition has been taking steps to force Musharraf to step down or face impeachment.Islamabad: President Pervez Musharraf, under pressure to step down before he is... more
