This is what happens when you're an NO priest, you just can't receive the necessary graces from the Novus Ordo. I'll be praying for Father Corapi. Of course, I don't understand why he stepped down. He knows the girl that claimed to have an affair with him is a phsyco-path narcisist who was only looking to get revenge on him for firing her.

Wait a second, how did you find out what the claim against him was, and where did you see who was involved?

When I asked my son, who is a Byzantine priest, what he thought about the latest chapter in the Fr, Corapi saga, he said, "Well, maybe now he can be an actor full time."

I take it the deep baritone theatrics failed to impress your boy.

There seems no way that the LaVey look could be accidental. Or, since Corapi is a player in hauling in lots of money--somewhere, some time, an alert person would have pointed out the obvious similarity of style. The look was not by accident, it was by design.

Here is the pictures showing how much Fr Corapi looks like anton Levay.

Actually, listen to it again.

I think Fr. C is saying the church process can't go forward until he
gives up his rights to pursue charges against the alleged victims in
the secular courts (possibly for defamation, etc) and other secular
rights. Since his lawyers advise against giving these rights up and
the canonical investigation won't proceed unless he does it, they are
at a stalemate and he'll be suspended indefinitely. That's why I think
he's saying to heck with it and trying to move on. In his view it is
that or perpetual suspension in limbo, since he's not giving up his
secular rights. If that is the case, I wouldn't either. It leaves him
wide open while the accusers keep all of their rights.

Indeed they do.

I don't know that they similarity was intentional. I don't even know if Fr. Corapi knows who Anton LaVey was. But the resemblance is striking.

I doubt he's trying to look like LaVey anymore than he's trying to look like Lenin.

He's always played up the reformed "bad boy" angle of his personality.

He's crazy, as a priest, to dye his beard and totally shave his head

Some girl said she had an affair with him. Corapi said the girl wanted him to step down.

You two, Sigusmund and Tele are right. I can't know if he knows who Anton LaVey is.

But we also know nothing about what led to the disciplinary action against John Corapi.

Stevus, do you know what the accusations are? The issue is sealed as far as I know.

Mmm. Major vagueness and many fat bank accounts and being owner of a media company, die hard fans of a star speaker...

But thank you very much for this.

I'm sure he does.

That doesn't mean he's trying to look like him.

Anything the Fishies say on this issue is guaranteed to be either wrong, insipid, vapid, juvenile, or inane. No desire to hear their posts here.

ANYTHING? Gee, no axe to grind here... :scratchchin:

GV,

If you want to sift through the FE pile of manure to find hidden gems of insight on this, be my guest. I'm sure Lua has it all figured out.

Just please keep those nuggets to yourself. :wink:

Have a good one.

LOL! I have no intention of doing so, stevie. Your blanket condemnation was simply unjust, that is all.

Classic!

Am I supposed to classify this little quip as a gem or manure?

stevusmagnus · « **Reply #44 on:** June 18, 2011, 06:07:01 PM »

It's called hyperbole (but not by much). Did you get your degree from the Fundie School of literalism? It would explain a lot re your views on the Papacy.

But seriously, I'm sure Lua can give you the feminist take on this issue. You should post some congratulatory messages on her blog.

Or simply re-register at FE as "ILuvLua" and imbibe the genius they are dealing on this issue right now.
