A different Priestly Scandal

A different Priestly Scandal

    This is a reaction largely from the church going Catholic community, who feel betrayed by their own priests.

    Number one, do you blame them?

    Number two, what do you think can be done right now to change their perceptions?

    While the Church insists that this scandal of boy sodomy by priests is behind it, keep in mind that accusations against priests, most of which are never disproven, continue unabated and that many of these are not in the distant past but by young adults, recently into their majority and free of coercive parental authority, now free to speak up.

  2. Anon:You write "Why would you do that, Steve? Are you just a vile person or do you have some personal motivation?"

    Lines like this are not going to be tolerated here. If I can find the right tool that would permit me to edit comments, I would delete it. Alas at this point, I've been unable to find such a program.

    Note to world: When I moderate comments, I only get to see the first 50+ words in the review window and crap like this has been slipping by me without me noticing. Can anyone who is more familiar than I am with 'Blogger' suggest a widget that would let me edit comments?

    I freely and without hesitation apologize for my remarks. They were clearly uncalled for and unChristian.

    1. Steve: This last comment is just more evidence that you are a classy and charitable man. IF we all do as well in our offerings here, this blog would be a better place to visit. Thank you.
