And to think my ancestors were TAXED to support this institution... Can we get our money back???
The Rev. Kevin Gray allegedly blew
a most unfortunate turn of phrase....
What in the hell is with the Catholic clergy.....this is just unbelievable.
As a wayward Catholic, this is just more of the same. They have been getting away with this behavior for years. The problem to me is why does it take 7 years to realize that he took all this money? Do you think his behavior was covered up? Somebody knew what was going on and felt to intimidated to speak or was payed off. They need to hire the local fire depts. to come in and flush out these churches. MHO.

The Catlick church has got to clean house on its homo Priests. I attended for 8 yrs and it has become a liberal institution.

Bump for reference.
It really is a shame - I've been acquainted with Fr. Gray for a while, and he does seem to be a nice person.

Seems that you have to be one wild party animal to be a RC priest these days.... I couldn’t do it, I prefer a quiet, secular, hetro lifestyle.

Gay priest?
Shouldn’t he be either a homo or a priest, but not both?
