Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

This thread is yet another example of the pathetic clique of pseudo-Christians who rejoice over the downfall of any Catholic priest. They even rejoice when mere accusations are flung at said priest, assuming that they are true before any proof at all is presented.
Such behavior doesn't even bear passing resemblance to Christianity. That much is not lost on most perceptive readers of these threads.
Even during the halcyon days of Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker, Jerry Falwell, Jimmy Swaggart, etc., I realized that only the basest scoundrel could find satisfaction in their respective falls. To use them to score political or religious points is the province of the immoral Left, not Christians.

"Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." -- Matthew 7:15-20

If you need help understanding Christ’s words, keep reading the Bible and pray for the Holy Spirit to guide your study.

The beauty of Scripture is that even a child can understand it.

These are lovely hints and all, but please just come straight out with it. What exactly do you want me to take away with me from your post?

The words of Christ are not “hints,” lovely or otherwise.
They are “spirit” and “life” (John 6:63) for those given ears to hear and eyes to see.

"The words of Christ are not hints, lovely or otherwise."Certainly not. But your posts are full of oblique statements. Cease to beat around the bush, please, and explain how you believe that bible passage applies to the case of Father Corapi.

Cease to beat around the bushI'm not doing that.
Christ's words are clear to anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear.

We really could keep this up forever. Is that what you want?
I've answered your questions. I've given you the words of Christ as an example of sound Christian teaching on discerning the wheat from the tares.
If you are still confused, go back to the Bible and read it.

Perhaps you've misunderstood. You have not answered
THIS question.
How, in your opinion, does that particular bible quote apply to the case of Father Corapi?
I'm looking for one straight answer; not inferences, not hints, not implications.
