SEARCHING FOR THE ARCHBISHOP (12.3.2); Re: His Grace and the subject of "women priests"; our analysis finally triggered by matters arising from the Roscoe Lecture, October 2015; this time considering the Nottingham period of 2001-2007/8; the "God is She" scandal and other dissents promoted by the Nottingham Diocesan Assembly; fourth in a short sub-series; Notes #16


Before reading this lengthy post, we would ask you to consider signing the following Citizen Go petition: link here if you haven't already done so. It concerns the repulsive events that have very recently come to light at the Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Primary School, Atherton, Wigan, in this very archdiocese; also the duties we now expect of His Grace The Most Rev. Malcolm McMahon OP, the ninth Archbishop of Liverpool, to defend Catholic Truth. Although this post is not a direct commentary on that obscene matter at Atherton, our readers will detect some very bitter ironies and connections. It's all part of the same toxicity. Also, counter-intuitively, we draw your immediate attention to the explanatory note (text marked in deep red) that we have included at the foot of this post before you read on.

Advice: this post (12.3.2) is the third of a sub-set within a broader Series. It can be read either as a standalone commentary or in the light of the first two parts (Link 12.1), (Link 12.2) and (Link 12.3.1)

i. Introduction

"Creator God".

Just two small words – albeit with ultimate import for the entire cosmological order.

Theologically sound, too.

Apparently.

For context is everything.

Especially when those words were conveniently (ab)used to form the opening of the official prayer of the infamous Nottingham Diocesan Assembly (NDA) – which commenced in 2002, was still belching dissent in 2008, and begat tentacles that poison even today.

Scandalous that two holy words could deceptively mask layers of compact defiance.

It may seem improbable to seriously allege that so much sinister significance could be loaded into so small a term (phraseologically speaking).

They were just two words of 10 letters after all. In clear praise of Almighty God.

What could possibly be hidden?

But that's the surface deniability, cloaked in sickly plausibility, that's long been a favourite "Exhibit A" Modernist machination.

It's generally prone to exposure, though, because it often leaves a fetid trail. What the Modernist expects, however, is that nobody undertakes the unpleasant and arduous effort to sniff back to source.

Well, it's a dirty job...

Having said that, certain media parties – most notably Christian Order and the Catholic Herald  – did, to greater or lesser extents, unmask elements of the noxiousness that was the NDA. Largely, though, especially beyond the Nottingham diocesan area, much of what occurred from early last decade in that territory escaped many commentators' attention.

Yet it really was as pernicious a period as we suggest. When overlapping agendas – the usual liberal hiss-ues – were conveniently woven to procure a perfect storm of episcopally-facilitated revolt.    

By unpicking the thinly-veiled stitching covering those two opening words of the NDA official prayer, the shameful deceit beneath bursts forth chaotically like an unsprung cartoon mattress; uncoiled grievances, feminist foaming, puffed-up politics and sham spuriousness furiously shrieks apart in every demonic direction.

Make no mistake, those two words were not posited positively, to affirm the universal prowess of God the Father.

Rather, “Creator God”, per the NDA, was an entirely negative circumvention, if not outright omission, of Catholic Truth and an implicit denial of the Trinity into the nauseating admix.

And the primary cause of it all was His Lordship The Rt Rev. Malcolm McMahon OP, ninth Bishop of Nottingham –– who has since been made, in 2014, the ninth Archbishop of Liverpool, hence our reasoning behind this study which we have adequately explained in many previous posts but most particularly the one immediately prior to this (we link again).

For it was the then newly consecrated Bishop McMahon of Nottingham who "opened the windows" (a famous phrase) back in 2001/02 to an Assembly of Agitation.

And he surely knew what type of encouraged stench would inevitably blow back.

Impossible to conclude otherwise.
