Serbian Patriarchate Bishop Resigns Over Sexual Abuse
Originally reported on in April 22, 2013, the Serbian Patriarchate has had to accept the resignation of Bishop Vasilije Kacavenda, a prominent Serbian Patriarchate Bishop in Bosnia. The resignation came after a graphic video surfaced of Bp. Vasilije engaged in immoral acts with men By the time of his formal resignation, Bp. Vasilije had already left off many clerical duties as allegations continued to emerge that he had used his office to, according to one source,”engage in sexual orgies involving young girls and boys.”
According the Spera News article:
According to VOA news, Bojan Jovanovic said he witnessed numerous sexual orgies provided by the 74-year-old Bishop Kacavenda that were attended by fellow priests, along with prominent businessmen. Jovanic is a former theological student in Bijeljina, the seat of Kacavenda’s diocese. According to Jovanovic, Bishop Kacavenda personally asked him to provide young children for perverted sexual pleasure, while also calling on church officials to organize sexual liaisons with young theological students.
“They tried on many occasions to put me in a compromising situation myself or to pull me into their circle,” Jovanovic said. “[The bishop] also suggested that I should use the school where I was teaching science to bring him children up to the age of 10, but of course I refused. I was also a witness when abbots from other monasteries would bring theology students who would spend the night with the bishop.“One morning, one of them called me and asked me to unlock the bishop’s room so he could get his things. I said, ‘What are your things doing in the bishop’s room?’ He said, ‘Come on, it’s not like you don’t know. Don’t pretend to be stupid.'”
“Our church tried to push these things under the carpet. Or, once things could no longer be hidden, the civil courts have waited for the statute of limitations to kick in,” Djordevic says. “In the case of Bishop Pahomije, the state is simply waiting for the whole thing to get old, even though the phenomenon of pedophilia in the church and in society is widespread. The trouble is that in our country, except for some notable exceptions, the public is asleep or intimidated and doesn’t have the courage to face these problems.”
I notice how this story, after only be up for 2 days, has gotten almost 500 views (not quite yet, 500, almost).
We know that Bishop Basil noticed that you are judged by the media persecution of bishops was the victim of an ecumenical lobby which does not belong to the same and on the basis of false recordings done lynch bishops. I wonder whether you are a believer of God with lies and attacks against someone perfect strangers go before God and do this out of love and the plan of Satan because Christ said do not be afraid my little flock and I were driving before you. Are you aware that the named Bojan Jovanovic, a former monk homosexual and a child lost an eye and hand?
I’m not quite sure what you are saying near the end. But, are you saying that all the evidence presented against Bp. Vasilije (Kacavenda), including apparent videos, pictures, testimony from numerous witnesses which the media has reported on, was all fabricated in some large conspiracy to discredit him because he was targeted by the “ecumenical lobby’ of bishops in the Serbian Patriarchate? Or are you speaking to Bp. Basil in some abstract sense, and your english is not good.
if his meaning is the former, may I point out that you cannot assume that because someone is right on one issue they are right on all of them. In the US some of the worst pedophilia and other sex and even closet satanism and other corruption has been going on among supposedly Christian civilization defending Republicans. However much people may try to package things together the facts are that all issues are separate issues. you cannot rely on some economic, political or sexual or whatever allegiance to automatically equate to any other supposedly in the same package.
Right now, one of the best crusaders against Agenda 21 aka sustainable growth or smart growth, which is both a scam and often bad for the environment and ultimately would box us all into high density housing and put most of the country off limits to humans and set us up for a pandemic (which would fit the depopulation agenda) one of the best fighters against this is a lesbian. The New Age movement itself splits potentially along lines of totalitarian regimentation and anarchism.
Yes there is ultimately one issue all the evils fit in, sin, but in terms of how it plays out in the street you cannot assume someone who is on your side of a dispute is on your side of all disputes in reality, never mind what he or she says.
“closet satanism and other corruption has been going on among supposedly Christian civilization defending Republicans.”
i think one only need know about Bohemian Grove to confirm this statement.
Well said, Christine. Also, thank you for bringing up Agenda 21 and the issues of pandemics and totalitarian regimentation and anarchism.
There are all sorts of rhetorical, conceptual traps and snares set for us by people working for the tyrants. It is not so easy for many people to realize what they really are.
