[font=.SF UI Text][font=.SFUIText]If it was an affair and not rape, then why[/font] [font=.SFUIText]has she gone public? Would she go to the police with lies? Why did she demand and now have a current photograph of the priest? It is likely she has given the photograph to the police- so was it actual rape, then? She obtained such a photo through an organization that exposes clerical abuse. Interesting? (Sounds like there are sɛҳuąƖ allegations against Arzuaga in France, and that tells me Fellay has not checked up on him in quite a while). He was being a bad man and a bad shepherd, but is he STILL? A slap on the wrist, I hear? He should have been pulled by the ear across the sanctuary. This priest clearly has sɛҳuąƖ problems. Has he been touching Our Lord while in the state of mortal sin? Poor Jesus. Now that’s a slap on the wrist. Why[/font] [font=.SFUIText]has Erica kept copies of correspondence between the Bishop and superiors over the years? If it was an affair, then why has she given away her identity, losing face in front of her fellow Catholics worldwide? Would she lie to all of us? She has embarrassed herself by doing this. If any of us were to see her in a store, we would probably laugh- that is the humiliation she has risked for herself. Why look upon her as if she were damaged goods? This woman has clearly been hurt; when she talks, her voice shakes. She is scared, has she been truly loved? Christ loved Magdalene- He did not sit with the saints, He sat with the sinners. And so if we were all around a table, I would sit next to Erica. I would take this woman out for some shopping and the meal would be on me, too. A little consideration first. Why is she trying to find out Father’s whereabouts? Why has she been offering Father his day in court- what is that all about? If it was an affair, why has she given out names to the public who are considered guilty in her case? Do you know how serious it is to give out names, when slander and such could take place? Well, she has given out names anyhow. Fr. Wegner, have you blushed yet? What about you, Fr. Stanich? And that goes for others she had named in her video. So, was it actual rape? I do not know, and neither do you. We are not to make assumptions because none of us were in that apartment to know the truth. Bishop Fellay was not in that apartment, either- and so I say he had no right to “conclude on anything.” He should have never trusted Fr. Arzuaga again. Period. It is quite obvious he believed the priest’s side of the story (they both were in their 30’s at the time and yes, they would be all buddy-buddy in that case). I do not believe the priest told the truth when questioned by Fellay. Also, the Society is all about the priesthood- and so, it would have been all about Arzuaga. The Society is NOT everything, and THAT goes for all traditional groups. Enough with the pride and whose better and whose right. Enough. Giving her apartment key to the priest but the priest taking the key are two different things. Fellay should have considered that. It was part of justice’s sake that Fellay should have had Arzuaga and Kauffman come into the same room for investigation. I can repeat that again, if you so wish. “Believe the priest. He’s such a saint. It is the woman’s fault,” right? Not all women seduce by the way. Question is was the priest even worth seducing? It sounds as if he was seducing himself; you shouldn’t have to allure a bad priest when he is bad already. Do you see what I mean? Bad priests come after you anyway. This implies as to why she remained within his reach? Yes, she was there to teach, but after him hitting the other teacher, did that other girl remain to teach as well? Arzuaga is claiming that “Erica had seduced him,” but she has claimed “that no such seduction on her part took place.” One of them is lying. It is clear Father did not want to sign those papers for the adoption- feelings of guilt and feelings of trace there,no? What I do believe is this: That Fr. Arzuaga was a true ass back in the 90’s. Was he breaking the law before entering the seminary? Did he even come from a Catholic family? And what about his good name? By going public, she has ruined his reputation. This questions the fact that such a risk taken might tell us it was a case of rape? Maybe. My only question is where was the roommate during the rapes? How did Arzuaga know the roommate was absent? Was he crazy enough to stalk the apartment every now and then? (Yes, there are psychotic people in the world that intimidate their victims like that. Just watch the news). For this case, everything will be revealed on Judgement Day, and so I will see you all on Judgement Day.[/font][/font][/color]
[font=.SF UI Text][font=.SFUIText] If you were raped by a priest- actually raped- like fighting Father all night long, would anyone believe you? No of course not- because “priests are men of God and they would never do such a thing.” Imagine having a priest touch you and you did not want it? Imagine you were held hostage by a priest, and even psychologically and not just physically. Imagine the buried fear you would have to live with because of that touch). Who do you think would win, Arzuaga or Kauffman? I think you know the answer to that. She said she could not get him off. She had admitted that in her video. Men are physically stronger. God forbid! Imagine the trauma by the one who taught you catechism? The one that gives Communion to you? The one who represents Christ? Take no money, Erica. But why have Arzuaga say Mass on all SSPX altars, but keep Kauffman out of their pews? I say this because there is no way she is permitted to attend those Masses. Sounds like “being kicked out of the ѕуηαgσgυєs,” no? I do not believe that Erica would lie to her own daughter what had happened multiple times in the apartment. This woman had kept the Faith as well; she had not fallen away forever. She could have chosen a a sinful life, but she lives alone and finds Mass the best she can. [/font][/font][/color]
[font=.SF UI Text][font=.SFUIText] I, too, have known manipulative individuals that will press you and the victim becomes imbalanced and afraid. I get the pressure, and others who have gone through the same will understand that pressure. Must be nice to be a priest, eh Father? sɛҳuąƖ abuse hides in Religious life and the priesthood. Maybe Miss Kauffman was manipulated by Arzuaga? We hear he had “been living a bad life,” and needed Fr. Peter Scott’s assistance. Yes two or three witnesses are needed in order to accuse a priest. How nice is that for any priest? But what priest is going to commit sɛҳuąƖ sin in front of a witness? He would keep it as secret as possible, yes? Being alone with a priest in an apartment gives him coverage and the victim ridicule. It is true- we would rather believe the priest but that is warped. I apologize, but maybe facts are not good enough, if some facts are missing or if the facts are tampered with. I apologize, but maybe there were no witnesses at the time but God. Now that’s a fact. And what about Fellay “saying he had never heard of the case?” That is just pathetic when he had to sit down and hear both stories. I think Fellay disregarded the child at the time (since then not much was done for her, even now nothing is done for her); but let me just add: She is legal now, Fellay. If Arzuaga’s daughter has a good amount of pity, she will not take you to court for this. [/font][/font][/color]
[font=.SF UI Text][font=.SFUIText] He knows about this public video and the fact that it has reached his French faithful. And I know plenty of French faithful; I do not think he would be willing to tell the truth on what really happened in that apartment. Must be hard to walk out of the priory. He has been ACCUSED of rape, but has not come forward to defend himself. He has remained silent like the Society has. He even knows that his daughter knows, but he is not man enough to face her. What if he comes to the States, finds Erica, and kills her? What will be all of your opinion then? When she went public last year, I was getting ready to travel to get a current photograph since I already knew the location of Fr. Arzuaga. And I was going to go to confession to him while I was there. But you heard her, “He did rape me. I know it. He knows it. God knows it.” You bring God into this as a Witness, then maybe this case is unsolved. At the end of the day, we are all dead because life is short and death is a thief in the night. Do you preach that, Father? And since life is short and we will stand before God to make account, might as well get involved and do the RIGHT THING. If it was an affair, wouldn’t she want to hide her sin from the public, yes? She has lost face by doing this, remember that. Authority and superiority always takes over. Remember that too. As the faithful, we do not know what happens behind the red curtain. Everything is skillfully hidden from us. Do not always trust the clergy; you do not know what they have done and what they do once they step down from the altar. I know someone who was raped as a little child and the priest got away with it. And that child tried to commit ѕυιcιdє many times. I would also like to add that although women are the weaker sex and men can overtake them, does not mean to take advantage of women because of the gentle qualities God had implanted in them; I say this on the rumors in Michael Matt’s position when a letter was written without Erica’s knowledge- but we can only accuse Mr. Matt if it true that such advantage was taken. Was there some dishonesty done against Miss Kauffman? [/font][/font][/color]
[font=.SF UI Text][font=.SFUIText] In regards to Arzuaga’s daughter, he should have paid for her very life and for her very soul. He is responsible for her soul before God. He easily got out from contributing towards her existence. Erica had courage to carry his child; if it was an affair, wouldn’t she have covered up her guilt by having an abortion? The last time I checked, Arzuaga had left her to deal with the pregnancy herself. So was it rape after all? Maybe. The priest was never invited to “be part of his daughter’s life,” which means there was some kind of tension between the priest and Erica for that to be arranged. Fellay should have made sure that Arzuaga paid, but of course not. The day will come when he will have to stand before his own daughter. His time will come. He was a coward and he loved only himself. No wonder why he walked out when she told him about the pregnancy; he was too focused on pleasure and not on that final end of the procreative act. It is incredible that God did not and has not struck this priest dead. I have already made up my mind to forgive this priest whether he wants any of us to forgive him or not. He absolves us, no? (his French faithful). True, he has been living too comfortably. Yes. We are part of every scandal in the Church, for we are members of the true Church- just as an entire country must suffer starvation. It might have been one person who sinned, but because of that sin, the entire congregation must suffer. We were part of Father’s sin from the beginning and we choose to make sacrifices for him than to silence ourselves for “reputation” or “money” motives. [/font][/font][/color]
[font=.SF UI Text][font=.SFUIText] You are pathetic, Father Arzuaga- and you are a pig. We love you too much. Someone has to tell you because how else are you going to rise above and become a saint? If he is truly sorry and cannot live with himself, let us hear him out and forgive. But if he raped and continued on to commit such abuse through the years, then he needs to go to prison. We are all sinners and sometimes we have to face the people we have hurt. If we expect Christ to forgive us, then we MUST forgive each other. Was it an affair? She either committed sin with Father or she didn’t. There’s no in between. And if we can’t know in this life, then we will know in the next. Miss Kauffman, if what you say is TRUE in its entirety, then fight for your daughter’s soul.”[/font][/font][/color]
