Joe Banister
Interviews “Rite of Sodomy” Author Randy Engel
Freedom
Above Fortune was founded by Joseph R. (Joe) Banister, a former IRS Criminal
Investigation Division Special Agent who learned of serious constitutional
questions relating to the federal income tax and the federal banking and
monetary systems.
You’ll
notice that the name of this organization is "Freedom Above Fortune"
rather than "Freedom Without Fortune" or "Freedom Instead of
Fortune". "Freedom Above Fortune" is an organization dedicated
to the concept that no amount of real or perceived economic prosperity
("fortune") is worth trading for your liberty. This is not to say
that pursuing economic prosperity is, in and of itself, bad. Rather, it is to
say that those who are willing to put their freedom at risk for a few pieces of
silver, similar to the manner in which Judas betrayed Jesus Christ, are
shortsighted and foolish.
If
you are willing to sell your freedom for short term financial security, real or
perceived, the willingness to sell your very soul can’t be far behind.
Mr.
Banister’s expertise in the fields of accounting, finance, taxation, and law
enforcement enabled him to not only understand these issues but realize that he
could play a role in bringing the issues into the public arena for analysis and
debate.

Randy Engel
Joe Banister’s regular
Saturday morning radio show on September 28th featured an interview with Randy
Engel, one of the nation’s top investigative reporters.
Earlier in her
career, Ms. Engel was known for her reputation as an expert in Vietnamese
history and her work with Vietnamese refugees, for which she received the
Distinguished Service Medal for her service to Vietnam.
As a Catholic
herself, Randy’s later work led her into the issues of the abortion-related
eugenics movement, homosexuality in the Catholic Church, and previously unknown
problems with the organ donation industry.
The first hour
of this morning’s program was devoted to a discussion of her book “The Rite
of Sodomy: Homosexuality and the Roman Catholic Church”.
She had become
alarmed at the indications of the existence of conscious efforts to sexually
“condition” children in Roman Catholic schools. She was able to link these
efforts to specific Catholic Dioceses in which the homosexual network was
dominant in the clergy.
In addition, she
identified individual high-ranking prelates in the Catholic Church who were
active homosexuals (including three well-known U.S. Cardinals and at least one
recent Pope), and who had considerable influence in the appointment of Catholic
bishops throughout the U.S.
She explained
that not only is this problematic with respect to concerns for the affected
children who may be exposed to molestation, but also that her research produced
extensive information documenting the heavy use of pornography and drugs by
homosexual clergy.
According to Ms.
Engel, this behavior represents direct violation of the laws of the Church and
the Christian Faith. It should be treated as unequivocally disqualifying for
continued service in the Church, yet the Catholic Church has repeatedly
protected those accused of such conduct, while concealing its own actions to
cover up the problem.
In her words,
she found evidence of “shocking depravity” that was very difficult for
her to deal with personally while trying to maintain an objective journalistic
perspective on the matters she was investigating.
A related
concern, which exists as well for homosexuals outside the Church and in the
military, is the enormous potential for blackmail of individuals who are
carrying on a hidden homosexual life style. The consequences of undiscovered
blackmail can be extremely serious, and can result in widespread injustice and
untold harm to innocent individuals far removed from the original blackmail
threats.
Ms. Engel stated
emphatically that her research has led her to the firm conclusion that there is
no “homosexual gene” and that homosexuality is learned
behavior.
The second hour
was devoted to a discuss of the rising concerns relating to the organ donation
industry.
To no one’s
surprise, the industry is driven by money. There are serious conflicts of
interest in the hospitals where emergency patients are treated. Many physicians
now recognize that heart transplant donors are not dead, and this raises very
serious ethical concerns. Once a patient with traumatic injuries arrives at the
hospital, he or she is considered a possible organ donor. There are many
potential transplant recipients waiting for organs, and there is big money
involved in the transplantation industry. The pressures to turn the patient
into an organ donor are powerful, and there is evidence that traumatized family
members may be subjected to inappropriate pressure to agree to organ donation.
Physicians will
certainly take issue with Ms. Engel’s conclusions, but there is a growing body
of opinion in the medical community that her concerns have some merit.
Doctors opposed
to 'presumed consent' for organ donations
Many doctors are
opposed to proposals to "presume consent" for organ donations,
warning the radical move could make patients start to fear the NHS, a new
survey suggests.
CRITICAL
INFORMATION CONCERNING "BRAIN DEATH" AND ORGAN TRANSPLANTATION
For over forty
years there has been a deadly code of silence pertaining to "brain
death." Behind closed doors a controversy raged. Many of those in the
medical field opposed this reinvention of death. The controversy continues...
"Brain death" was invented for the sole purpose of organ transplantation, living human medical experimentation and a means in which measures to sustain life could be legally withdrawn. It was the first legal form of euthanasia in the US. This deadly code of silence has been broken.
It is time to inform the Public of the Truth....

Dr Paul Byrne -
Can organ transplantation respect life until its natural end?
____________________________________________________________________________
Ms. Engel’s
advice - GET OFF THE ORGAN DONOR LIST and sign an opt-out card to avoid the new
“presumed consent” laws spreading across the country. This is especially
important for young people who are just starting to drive, and who are being
coerced in the schools to sign organ donor cards.
Randy Engel’s
web site has a publication titled “Don’t Give Your Heart Away”:
Product
Description
Like the
abortion industry, the vital organ transplantation industry rests on the
utilitarian principle that the end justifies the means. Like the abortion
industry, its nexus is hard, cold cash – billions in hard cold cash. The only
thing harder and colder that the cash, is the hearts of the surgeons and staff
who, having come to the knowledge that they must kill a living donor in order
to retrieve a healthy organ for a recipient fellow human being, continue to
engage in this medical butchery, and rationalize said killing as justifiable on
the grounds that that the excised organ will be used to save the life of
another living human being.
Pro-lifers need to make vital organ transplantation a key right to life issue because it is a violation of the Natural Moral Law and God’s Commandment – thou shalt not kill.

About the Author
Randy Engel, one of
the nation’s top investigative reporters, began her journalistic career shortly
after her graduation from the University of New York at Cortland , in 1961. A
specialist in Vietnamese history and folklore, in 1963, she became the editor
of The Vietnam Journal, the official publication of the Vietnam Refugee
and Information Services, a national relief program in South Vietnam for war
refugees and orphans based in Dayton, Ohio . She recorded for the Voice of
America and Radio Saigon. In 1970, she received the Distinguished Service
Medal for “exceptional and meritorious service to Vietnam .”
In addition to her writings and relief work on behalf of the VRIS, in the
mid-1960s, Randy Engel developed an intense interest in pro-life issues
including population control, abortion and eugenics, putting her on the ground
floor of the emerging Pro-Life Movement. In 1972, she founded the U.S. Coalition for Life in
Pittsburgh, Pa. , an international pro-life research and investigative agency,
and began editing the USCL’s official publication, the Pro-Life Reporter.
Her four-year study on the eugenic policies and programs of the March of Dimes
titled “Who Will Defend Michael?” quickly put the USCL on the map as the finest
pro-life research agency in the U.S.
Her investigative findings
documenting the rise of the federal government’s anti-life programs at home and
abroad served as the basis for her testimony before Congressional hearings in
the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. Randy Engel’s groundbreaking
investigative findings related to US/AID abortion and sterilization programs in
Latin and South America, Asia and Africa were instrumental in bringing about
major pro-life changes in the Agency for International Development’s foreign
assistance programs.
Many of her original research publications for the USCL including “A March of
Dimes Primer – the A-Z of Eugenic Abortion,” and “The Pathfinder Fund – A Study
of US/AID Anti-Life Funding” have become pro-life classics and continue to
enjoy wide circulation.
In 1995, the veteran pro-life researcher exposed the long-standing eugenic
abortion record of Dr. Henry Foster, President Bill Clinton’s nominee for U.S.
Surgeon General, resulting in the Senate’s failure to approve the
nomination.
Sex Education – The Final Plague, Randy Engel’s first full-length book on
the sexual conditioning of Catholic school children was published by Human Life
International (Baltimore, MD) in 1989 and later by Tan Publishers ( Rockville,
IL ). Her second book, The McHugh Chronicles – Who Betrayed the Pro-Life
Movement? was published in 1997, while she continued to gather researching
material and conduct interviews for The Rite of Sodomy.
Over the last
forty years, Randy Engel’s articles, have appeared in numerous Catholic
publications including Liguorian Magazine, Our Sunday Visitor,
The Wanderer, Catholic Family News and the Homiletic and
Pastoral Review.
She has received numerous awards for excellence in investigative journalism
including the prestigious Linacre Quarterly Award for Distinguished Writing by
the Catholic Medical Association.
Meticulous documentation and references and easy readability are the hallmarks
of Randy Engel’s investigative writings, and The Rite of Sodomy - Homosexuality
and the Roman Catholic Church is no exception to the rule. The 1,318-page
text contains over 3000 endnotes, a bibliography of over 350 books, is fully
indexed and reads like a top-flight mystery thriller – except that it is not
fiction – it is true.
