Let's see Pablo. Were you there? Do you know what happened? Or are you a troll for this priest?
This priest indeed assaulted a parishioner. There were witnesses. I was a witness to a part of the incident. I assure you, it was very unpriestly.
The priest lives in fear???? There are plenty of men, women, and children who live in fear that this priest will become irate and either confront or attack them.
Two years of agony for a priest?? What about the agony that parishioners are experiencing because they are watching their chapel, a chapel they worked hard to purchase, and prayed hard to fill, go down in flames? What about the agony of not being "allowed" to go back into your chapel? What about being removed from your volunteer positions? What about that agony?
And yes, they wouldn't call the police on a priest. Although, in my opinion, they should have.
Perhaps YOU should know what your are talking about before you make comments.
The Priests are NOT God! They are still men. And as such, we do not have to bow down to them. They HAVE to be held accountable for their actions. PERIOD.
Just how do you think this pedo-priest mess in the NO was allowed to fester for so long? Because everyone was afraid to call the police. Bull hockey!
