A priest does not lose his sacramental abilities because of his personal unworthiness of his office.

Wow, job security to make a teacher's union jealous.

That's got tenure all beat out.

You know what? He OUGHT TO!!!! He ought to lose it all and get sent to the slammer for that.

No person spitting in Christ's face like that has any business pretending to be a stand in for Jesus in any way.

Talk about taking the Lord's name in vain.

It can mean more than swearing.

a priest can be an apostate and go to hell when he dies. any of them who harmed those little kids without repenting and receiving the forgiveness for those sins are certainly in hell.

but grace has it’s origin in Jesus Christ, not the holiness ( or lack thereof ) of the priest.

God can use evil men for His purposes.

Nice Donatism. Maybe you could upgrade and become a Mormon.
