THE CLERICAL SCANDAL OF SEXUAL-ABUSE and coverups, caused by a significant minority of the episcopacy and presbyterate of the Roman Catholic Church, has precipitated a strategic intellectual debate. On one side, the so-called 'conservative' intellectual diagnosis blames what some see as a broad presence within the contemporary Western Roman Catholic clergy of persons with homosexual tendencies. On the other side, the so-called 'progressive' intellectual diagnosis blames "Clericalism," which it sees only as a problematic psychological attitude, or an authoritarian, non-transparent, and unaccountable organizational culture, or both. This small book has not been written to defend either side of that debate, but rather to understand how Roman Catholic Clericalism is a systemic institution. Even so, it is important to state that any 'conservative' scapegoating of persons with a homosexual orientation for the clerical sexual-abuse and coverup scandals, as if homosexuality itself were the cause, blasphemes the image of God in those among us with a homosexual orientation. All human persons, regardless of sexual orientation, carry the beauty and dignity of our loving Creator's sacred image. It is also important to state that, while the 'progressive' diagnosis is correct at the surface level, it nonetheless fails to unveil the deep root of Clericalism as an historically legislated and non-evangelical institution, which inevitably regenerates problems and even pathologies for each successive clerical generation. The 'progressive' diagnosis also fails to explore how the non-evangelical institution of Roman Catholic Clericalism was historically constructed by imperial, papal, and conciliar legislation over more than a millennium and a half, and how it is now undermining the Western Catholic evangelization. Deepening the analysis of Clericalism to its foundational and tenacious institutional level is the purpose of this small book.

Now that Crystal has turned sixteen, she can transform into a Red Dragon, just like everyone else in the kingdom. Having moved to the capital with her mother to finish her studies among the elite of Red Dragon society, she is only interested in enjoying the last two years of school. But then she meets John, the strange and exceptional student who insists that somehow she is special. He is a constant reminder that she is different, with her blonde hair in a Kingdom of redheads. And he always seems to be there, just when she and her friends need him most. Despite her best efforts to stay away from this strange new boy and finish the school year, Crystal may just find that she needs his help more than she is willing to admit. From the East comes the growing threat of conflict with the Blue Dragons, who are bent on killing them all.

Despite being found wondering the beach at age five with no memory of his past, Grayson Maddocks considers himself to be a pretty average teenager. With the foster system as the only world he’s ever known, there isn’t much Gray can’t adapt to or roll with.He maybe could have even handled being almost abducted one night. However, when the girls who attack him move faster than humanly possible, and seem to harness energy out of thin air to use as a weapon, even Gray can see things are about to go way beyond normal.Barely escaping as the two girls turn their fight on one another, Gray is suddenly pulled into a world he doesn’t understand, and one he can barely believe exists. Unknowingly, he now finds himself at the center of a decades old struggle - with who or what, he doesn’t know. Gray only knows that he and his friends are being hunted; and as they fight to stay alive, he knows their time is running out.
