This picture shows what a liar the: Bishop of Paterson, Fr. Mark Condon, and Bro. Paul, Benedictine Brother who is Guardian of the Monastary, are. Without the use of the entrance road from route 3, the parking lot and the toilet facilities, the event could not have taken place. The 3 armed, off-duty police officers which kept some pro-life activists off of the Monastery property, were also: standing on, using, directing traffic and keeping representatives of www.CatholicVote.org, www.njrtl.org, and some Protestant ministers from protesting Jim McSleezy, the Catholic Pro-abortion, Democrat Candidate for Governor; ON THE CATHOLIC PROPERTY
This all happened on Consecrated, Roman Catholic property.
Oops, I forgot to post the Bishops official reply in my last post, Here it is:

Incidentally, the restaruant is out of business and had nothing to do with the event except rent the back yard.
The party was catered by another caterer and not the restaurant. The monastery provided an entrance from the highway, toilets, parking and let the armed guards keep pro-life activists from protesting.
The Monastery could have said, NO. But they didn't. Instead, they said YES, TO SATAN AND TO BABY KILLING.
Isn't that nice!!
