Yep with all the scandals in recent days these perverts in the priesthood STILL can't stop
"Yep with all the scandals in recent days these perverts in the priesthood STILL can't stop"
Why is it that when a Catholic priest views child pornography or molests a child, it is a major news event? Yet, when a muslim cleric (and I'm speaking about many in the US as well as around the world) instructs his followers to commit murder, engages in terrorist acts and funnels money to terrorists outside of the country; is is a non-news story?
I'm not defending the priests or their actions. However, in my book, the actions of muslims are far more contemptable and are more serious crimes than those of the priests.
Sorry if you felt insulted by my remarks. I did not intend to insult conservatives in those states. But the majority of the voters in CA and NY have consistently shown their liberal perversion. I still shake my head every time I hear Hillary Clinton speaking, wondering how any group of people could have become so gullible as to fall for the garbage Hillary has spouted for the last decade and a half?
Ooops, please disregard, replied to wrong thread!
FWIW, that's the majority of people voting, not the majority of all voters. Sigh.
Please disregard mine, too :)
These sordid events will continue as long as the Catholic church allows sodomites into the priesthood.
You are comparing two non-related items. Catholic priests are supposedly Christians and "men of God." They aren't supposed to be child molesters, homosexuals, and perverts. Muslim clerics are Islamists, and as such they are expected to be cold-blooded killers.
I was talking with a friend of mine about the Catholic priesthood (he's Catholic). He said that the priest in the church he grew up in was a powerful preacher, and a strong man of God, but that his mother made sure that he and his siblings were never left alone with him. Scary.
Please forgive me, but I need to get alot off my chest, and since I'm Catholic I feel I have the right and responsiblity to say what I am about to say, and believe me, when I finish here, since MT. Ponoco is my backyard, my Preist is going to hear this and some more...
I have watched this for almost 30 years, thats when the first case was brought about, and I thought, well ok, this poor soul has a problem and now he can get help and we can help the boy her assaulted.
Then came more and more and more, and then Pope John Paul said we need to forgive these people, and I thought, nope I don't think so, this is becoming a regular rather than the norm here and these people need to be accountable for what they have done, so I fell away from the church, didn't go for a few years until I decided, well maybe I'm just cutting my nose off to spite my face, so I went back, ok, I seen where some were brought to trail, and we pay this thur our tithe, which doesn't make me happy, but lets not judge right now....and now this, in MY backyard, and NOPE I'm not forgiving this time....and I'm not going to enter another Catholic church for a long time, and I'm not stupid enought to think this doesn't go on in other sects...it does, just hasn't been brought out yet....back in the 70's the Catholic church had a hard time finding Preists so they opened their doors to anyone, and look what we got here, a bunch of petafiles, dirty rotten trash, they all need to be locked in prision until they die....what gives them the right to abuse our children??? The very ones they are suppost to teach, and set examples for....so now I will quit talking about this subject before I get kicked off here, if I haven't been already, but people out there, NO do not forgive these trashy people, put them in their places, in prisions for life....they do not deserved to be walking amongst us!!!!!!
Both should be news stories
We had one of these pervs in Dallas caught by the parish deacon a couple of weeks ago when he saw images of naked boys on a computer reflecting off a glass picture behind the pastor.
And the silly bishop, instead of getting angry, comes to the parish and blubbers like a baby in front of the parishioners, telling them they have to forgive the pastor.
This guy, Tetherow, goes into a parish as a visitor and pollutes the computers there. Did he think he wasn't going to get caught?
What a dope!
FYI. See #17.
FYI. Aren't you part of St. Anthony's Chapel?
St. Anthony's is not independent. It is diocesan and this was a diocesan assignment.
Someone needs to check Tetherow for past affiliations, particularly the Society of St. John.
