*** In my judgment, Father Corapi is getting the short end of the stick here. .... Anyone else? ***

Yes.
Reason - In Chicago there's a very *infamous* parish priest named Father Pfleger, at St Sabina's Church. He's been there over 20 years (that's against the rules) and he has broken almost every other rule in the book, like getting arrested, and THREATENING SOMEONE'S LIFE -- and worse as far as The Church goes (IMMO), openly thumbed his nose at direct orders from the Cardinal, whose also the Archbishop of Chicago, Cardinal Francis George.

To boot Father Pfleger 'has preached' at Obama's old Chicago 'church' where that anti-American, Anti-Semitic, Anti-White, 'Rev' Jeremiah Wright spewed his bile. Yet. Father Pfleger remained at St Sabina's.

Only recently has the Cardinal said enough is enough, you have to be reassigned to a new parish due to the Church's rules and that's that, but Pfleger is STILL there. Yet this priest, Father Corapi, gets the boot OUT OF THE PRIESTHOOD in relative light speed based on *evidence* he can't even see.

Something is very wrong (head shaking).

First of all, as a Lutheran I am an outsider.

Second, you are right Condor! There is an interesting thing going on. I don't know if Corapi is guilty or not, but if he was like Pfleger and attacking the conservatives no one would say anything.

It is funny how often when some one is on the liberal side, the bishops say how powerless they are. Yet when it is on the other side, the hammer comes down quickly.

The US Catholic church has issues. And it will take generations, if ever, to fix.

Sadly, just about all the churches and synods in the US are facing similar things. The LCMS is fighting a rear guard action, and the Southern Baptists will go gay soon.
