That was not written by Gracida Yeah, I had my doubts as well having re-read it.
I actually agree that Fr. Corapi's blacksheepdog persona leaves much to be desired, I just don't think it is the issue now, when he is clearly a victim of detraction and most likely, cynical slander.
I just don't think it is the issue now ...
However, there are still those that feel they are going to receive some sort of positive Christian message from "The Black Sheep Dog" in the future, when that's seemingly all but impossible, as he doesn't speak about Jesus too much, and he's yet to mention Mary at all.
That coupled with his odd videos and his [literally] distorted image (in his latest one) should be a "heads-up" as to what is going on, even amongst his strongest "followers."
Personally, I believe SOLT probably knows more regarding Corapi ("improper sacramental practices" for instance) and that's why they came out hard and firm with what they
did report, and they only struck on these few points so as not to cause further scandal within the Church.
In other words, there's just so much a person can take, without getting sick to their stomachs ... or worse.
So it is increasingly more important to pray, pray, pray for Fr. John Corapi, but to discourage
any type of positive direction toward his "Black Sheep Dog" persona, but, of course, that's just my opinion.
