Archdiocese of Saint Paul: Agitator Shows Signs That She Sympathizes With Aberrosexuality

Edit:  Currently, there's a significant media attack being levied against the Archdiocese of St. Paul, its Archbishop, loyal priests and laity.  A look into the background of those making the charges and who is associated with whom should give even a casual reader insight into what is behind this attack, and the sheer vindictiveness of it.

Father Michael Tegeder, long-time dissident who is also close to an accused sexual abuser himself, Deacon Joseph Damiani, has an interesting advocate in the form of the canon lawyer who blew the whistle against the Diocese, Jennifer Haselberger. (An investigation was reopened in June against Damiani and he was removed from ministry pending the investigation.)

Despite the fact that there are more sexual predators at large in Collegeville, Minnesota, than in the Archdiocese, Jeff Anderson's efforts are focused on the Archbishop of the Archdiocese of St. Paul who himself opposed same-sex marriage.  Could it be that Anderson's own sympathies for "marriage equality" are determining the targets of his righteous indignation?

Haselberger was among voices who unjustifiably accused Father Paul Marx OSB of anti-semitism during an HLI Mass at the Cathedral, where she essentially joined herself to gomorrist counter-demonstrators  who carried signs with blasphemies and committed indecent acts in 1997 on the Cathedral steps. The attorney, Jeff Anderson himself is a very significant donor to the American Civil Liberties Union.  Their championing for the destruction of the family is well documented.

Whistleblower Haselberger, who is collaborating as a witness for Jeff Anderson's crescade against the Catholic Church, recently issued an affidavit about Father Tegeder and the Archdiocese which strikingly demonstrate where her sympathies truly lie.  Bishop Cozzens merely says that her views don't necessarily coincide with the Archdiocese.  As reported in Columbus, Ohio's, The Republic:

[Minneapolis] In a sworn statement released Tuesday, Jennifer Haselberger alleged that a former top deputy to Archbishop John Nienstedt proposed declaring the Rev. Michael Tegeder disabled to silence his opposition to the archbishop's efforts to promote a constitutional amendment against same-sex marriage. She said in her affidavit that the archbishop is the only person with the power to declare a priest disabled, and no medical diagnosis is necessary. 
Tegeder told The Associated Press that the affidavit was the first he'd heard of the idea of silencing him.
"It's laughable. ... That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard," [Not as laughable as misrespresenting yourself as a Catholic priest in good standing.] said Tegeder, who serves as pastor at St. Francis Cabrini Church in Minneapolis and has been calling for Nienstedt to step down for some time.
Surely, traitors merit the hottest places in Hell?

  1. The archdiocese of Minneapolis-St Paul had been a thriving cesspool under notorious Bp. Harry Flynn. Especially the openly heretical parish of St. Joan of Arc. Now that they no longer have an enabler for a bishop the turds are floating to the top.

  2. It just seems like everything is falling apart in Minnesota. The endless scandals of St. John's Abbey we have almost gotten used to, but we don't know what to believe. For certain, Tegeder should be cuffed and laicized.

    When will the Vatican act, and investigate St. John's Abbey? New allegations are coming forth all the time.

    1. You don't believe that Josh Guimind disappeared a decade ago and that there are dozens of unsolved murders if young men?

      Saint John's is a well documented and known hatchery for sexual predators.

  3. I was born and raised in this diocese. under archbishop Roach the diocese was crazy liberal. under full in the diocese was still liberal but not so bad. Archbishop Nienstadt is more orthodox tgan Roach and Flynn.

    it saddens me that Haselberger brought up Fr Gallatin who was recently removed as pastor of the church my parents attend. Fr Gallatin is a nice person and an Orthodox priest. he was removed because of an incident years ago before he became a priest where one night in summer camp he rubbed another man's chest or stomach. Yesterday Haselberger is quoted stating that Fr Gallatin admitted he has an attraction to 12 year old boys. so now the good priests name and reputation is utterly destroyed.

    1. Ironically, Haselberger venerates a pederast who sexually exploited many children for years.

      I really don't believe Haselberger myself. She's got an agenda.

    2. Gallatin was our priest - if he has an attraction to 12 year old boys AND ACTS on them, as he did (and Hasselberger isn't first one to out him I don't believe) then he shouldn't be around my kids. He was a TERRIBLE priest. We left the church years ago because he was weird, and a HORRIBLE speaker. Was un-listenable. We helped build that church, sweated under hot sun landscaping and helping get it going - broke our hear to leave, but couldn't STAND to listen to him any more. An hour felt like an eternity in hell.

    3. Regardless if you like Hasselberger or not - I think she, Jeff Anderson, and Patrick Wall are our biggest Catholic heroes for work protecting our children - if you like her or not, you cannot deny that Nienstedt is either a liar or he's daft. "They told me the priest abuse crisis had been solved, so I didn't think about it again for years"? Really? I thought of a third - he must think he's so much smarter than every one of the Catholics in the diocese, that they believe anything he says. Swore on a bible in deposition, and lied. THat's not a quality we want in moral leader.

  4. Traitors - hottest place in hell? Tegeder is not a traitor - he is speaking up in defense of kids. THe problem is blind loyalty to a corrupt RCC, and the oath of obedience to superiors. He's the only one with the moral terptitude to speak up. Its SHAMEFUl that he's the only one to denounce the archbishop of lies, and the enabling of child abuse.

    1. Tegeder protects Collegeville. Hard for me to believe he isn't sheltering predators.

      As for being a traitor. He really needs to join another Chirch because his views have nothing to do with Catholicism.

  5. I like to hope that the hottest place in hell is reserved for child abusers, and those that enable them - priests that speak out against it (I should say "priest") go straight to heaven. Do you think Jesus would support child abuse? He whipped people who were gambling in the temple - I don't think he'd say, "as long as you're a priest".

  6. Priests take a vow to protect the catholic church - so when they hear about abuse, they cover it up thinking it will protect the church - but it doesn't - it creates a nuclear bomb waiting to blow up - so instead of a bad newspaper article about a single priest, (which is going to happen - its going to happen to a coach, a computer programmer, an uncle - that in and of itself does not destroy anything but a single career - hide it, and it destroys the entire church. So Nienstedt broke his vow to protect the church. As did Cardinal Law, Flynn, Dolan, on and on and on.

    1. The problem lies more with the moral revolution ushered in by those individuals who had no problem with this problem, and would wink at it, who secreted themselves into the Catholic Church, especially in the 30s and 40s, but who are very well represented in Socialist/Republican Political parties and educational and cultural institutions, which in terms of morality and belief have absolutely nothing to do with Catholicism. The problem primarily lies in the fact that Bishops don't curb doctrinal deviants like Tegeder and so many others like them.
