This is not surprising, the word preists should have tipped you off.

I am not Catholic but I feel sure there are many more perverts that are not Priest than perverts that are Priest. I think it is time for the Catholic Church to let these Priest get married ! Just my opinion

That is true they do need to marry. But in the pass year or so there have been alot of Priest in the news over allegations of child sex. It's either Priest or just plain scum.

Agreed.. I've never been able to really understand that. Especially when they start trying to give out marital advice and the like. |

I can't agree with you more. The media is all about reporting sensationalism. When was the last time you read about the priest who saved a marriage or sheltered the homeless in his church? Not very often.

The actual newspaper article is even more shocking than the original post. He has been indicted AGAIN!
"has been indicted there again on similar charges involving another boy," And the actions by the priests caused the diocese to file for bankruptcy. "The Tucson diocese filed for bankruptcy in 2004 after lawsuits were filed over the sexual misconduct allegations, the Citizen reports. The next year it agreed to pay $22.3 million to more than 50 victims of sexual abuse by priests, the paper said." Close to half a mil per victim...... |

A religion that changes its principles over time isn't much of a religion.
