Vatican whistle-blower renews attacks on Pope Francis over disgraced cardinal as crisis in Catholic Church deepens

Posted: 29 Aug 2018 08:23 AM PDT

Vatican whistle-blower renews attacks on Pope Francis over disgraced cardinal as crisis in Catholic Church deepensA Vatican whistle-blower who has accused Pope Francis of having covered up sexually abusive behaviour by an American cardinal stepped up his attack on Wednesday, speaking from a secret location. Archbishop Carlo Mario Vigano, a former Vatican ambassador to the US, has plunged the Catholic Church into crisis with allegations that the pope failed to act against Theodore McCarrick, a US cardinal, who was accused of sexually abusing young priests over decades. Cardinal McCarrick, the former archbishop of Washington, resigned in disgrace last month, becoming the first cardinal to step down since 1927. Archbishop Vigano, 77, released an 11-page document detailing the allegations at the weekend and called on Francis to resign. He then went underground amid reports that he feared for his safety. After days of silence he gave an interview, from an undisclosed location, to an Italian journalist, renewing his criticism of Francis' papacy. Cardinal Theodore McCarrick resigned in disgrace in July Credit: Max Rossi/Reuters  "I spoke out because corruption has now reached the highest levels of the Church hierarchy," he said, claiming he had received broad support for his actions. "I have had messages from priests and the faithful who have thanked me because my testimony was for them a glimmer of hope for the Church." He denied that he was pursuing a "vendetta" against Pope Francis and cardinals close to him. Vatican analysts say the attack appears to be part of a concerted effort by conservatives to oust Pope Francis, who they dislike for his relatively liberal views on issues such as acceptance of homosexuals, allowing divorcees to take Communion and his push for a more inclusive Church. "It really seems like an obvious move by conservatives to de-legitimise Francis," David Gibson, director of the Centre on Religion and Culture at Fordham University in New York, told Reuters. "This whole thing was carefully coordinated with conservative Catholic media and carefully timed." The strategy was to damage Francis's legacy before he either dies or resigns, perhaps due to ill health, and to ensure a conservative successor. "It's the start of the campaign for the next conclave," said Mr Gibson, referring to the secret election held in the Sistine Chapel to choose a new pope. Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano has gone into hiding since making the allegations against Pope Francis Credit: Pool/Reuters "Behind these attacks there are dark forces," said Tommaso Valentinetti, 66, an Italian archbishop. The pope's enemies were "throwing mud" to try to discredit him, he said. The allegations against Pope Francis were first aired in the middle of his trip to Ireland, where he apologised for the Church's decades of complicity and cover-up in the sexual abuse of children by Catholic clergy. Archbishop Vigano claims that he told Pope Francis of the allegations about Cardinal McCarrick, whom he described as "a serial predator", back in 2013. He said that rather than punish McCarrick, the Argentinian pontiff had lifted sanctions imposed on him by his predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI. It was only last month that Francis removed McCarrick as a cardinal, ordering him to live a lifetime of penance and prayer, after Church officials in the US found that allegations that he sexually abused a 16-year-old boy were credible. The Pope has not addressed the allegations directly but told journalists on board the papal plane returning from Ireland to Rome to "read the communique attentively and make your own judgement." In his weekly address in St Peter's Square on Wednesday, Pope Francis spoke about the sins committed by the Church in Ireland but did not mention the accusations levelled against him by Archbishop Vigano. The de facto leader of the conservatives who are deeply unhappy with Francis's five-year papacy is Cardinal Raymond Burke, an American.

Credit: Giulio Origlia/Getty A traditionalist, he has accused the Pope of causing confusion with his remarks about homosexuality and giving Communion to divorcees who remarry in civil ceremonies. Cardinal Burke said on Wednesday that the allegations levelled against the Pope by Archbishop Vigano were "very serious" and had left him "speechless". "I believe we now need a full response from the Pope and the Vatican," he told La Repubblica newspaper. Calling for the pope to resign was "legitimate" if it was proved that he had made "grave errors" but the matter needed to be properly investigated, Cardinal Burke said. "I have nothing personal against the pope. I'm simply trying to defend the true faith and the clear presentation of the faith."

Starbucks opens shop operated by seniors in Mexico

Posted: 28 Aug 2018 06:54 AM PDT

Starbucks opens shop operated by seniors in MexicoMexico, Aug. 28 (Notimex).- The coffee chain Starbucks opened its first branch in Mexico and Latin America operated entirely by seniors, to give employment opportunities to this segment of the population. The general director of the company, Christian Gurría, said that currently has about seven thousand "partners" in the country, of which 65 are older adults, however the goal is to increase this base of workers to be 120 for the next year. In an interview with Notimex he pointed out that although the chain already serves the young segment with their first job, education programs, very clear career plans and opportunities, they were looking for a job inclusion program that could be replicated. He explained that beyond the business topic, in this initiative there is a greater value, which is social, by giving seniors the opportunity to have a job. To achieve this program, the chain had to contemplate certain conditions to ensure the safety of the elderly, such as one floor branches, lower the shelves to avoid accidents and different schedules. In addition to having additional benefits to those that provide their normal workers, such as insurance for major medical expenses, two days off and a working day of 6.5 hours. The chain also undertook a process of raising awareness on the subject of interaction of the elderly, since the profile of the staff of the stores is young people and students. "It took us two years to land the best scheme to contribute to the elderly community in Mexico, opening the doors of our stores to senior baristas was not a goal, it was an act of congruence with the inclusion philosophy of Starbucks," said Gurria. Since 2011, the chain has worked hand in hand with the National Institute for Older Persons (Inapam, for its acronym in Spanish) in the design of a pilot program to provide adequate working conditions for adults. Later, in 2013, Starbucks and the institute signed an employment relationship agreement, with the objective of continuing to offer opportunities for this group of the population. NTX/RNN/JKM/BBF

EU urges 'amicable' end to Franco-British scallop warThe European Commission on Wednesday urged France and Britain to find an "amicable" solution after fishermen from the two countries clashed in the English Channel over a hoard of scallops.
