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.

Thats true of most things the "Fishies" say Stevus.

I don't know how to imbed pics-it has been often pointed out, how he had dyed his goatee, the shaved head. There have been side-by-side comparisons BUT

I am so sorry, BTW. I should not have brought it up. I think his words on the subject of his suspension do the job.

He DOES look a bit like Anton LaVey...

To go from a gray beard to a dyed goatee and a completely shaved head is a bit peculiar for a priest.

I looked up a few comparison pictures...it's a little scary indeed. I was fully expecting it to be something people are blowing out of proportion, but it is quite drastic. Time will tell where this is going I guess.

The tolerant fishies are now drawing conclusions based on the fact that Fr. Corapi shaved his head and dyed his beard over the years? Guilt by beard dye?

How does this prove any of the charges against the man?

In a court of law this wouldn't even be considered in as evidence it is so ludicrous.

The most you could say is that it might be unusual or odd for a priest, I suppose. However, one could hardly draw any conclusions about his guilt from it.

What I find much more strange is why he is not fighting this to the end if he is innocent.

ABL begged for a canonical trial but they would not grant him one. He did all he could to appeal his case through canonical channels.

Father Corapi was never a fan of the Latin Mass in the beginning , but recently i heard some new tapes of his done recently and he sounded more zealous and more political, i wonder if someone was giving him information and the traditional way of Catholicism, I know even the Novus Ordo gang wasnt happy with him. He recently filled 20,000 seats in the Buffalo arena. Well we will see now that he plans on being a public "layman" I m guessing he'll be on FOX news one day. I hope he goes on Coast to Coast that would be interesting.

At this point it does not matter to me about Guilt.

We do not know what the accusation consists of.

We do know the resume of this man before he was ordained a priest, and it is safe to say that he had not lived a holy life and answered God's call in the traditional manner.

Every priest I have personally encountered who makes much of themselves in sermons has ended up with problems.

Corapi, like all Catholic priests, is supposed to draw people to Our Lord, not to himself.

Fame and fortune are not good for anyone, especially not recovering cocaine addicts.

Hi Salus, I would be much more moved to love if he filled 20,000 kneelers in Reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus before the Blessed Sacrament. Free admission.

Agreed. 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."

Hey, Telesphorus, it seems we actually agree on something.

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.
