A gross disparity exists in the archdiocese of New York
On a quiet day in July 2014, Fr. Justin Wylie boarded a plane from New York City to South Africa. After four years serving the faithful here, it would be his last time working as a priest in the archdiocese.
His dismissal had nothing to do with personal misdeeds or accusations of fraud; he was sent packing based on a single homily earlier that summer in which he spoke up on behalf of the faithful and their beleaguered parish. Contrasted with the treatment of Fr. Peter Miqueli - the priest at the center of a prolonged gay sex scandal involving accusations of embezzlement of $1 million - Fr. Wylie's fate shows not only a gross double standard but potential corruption in the archdiocese of New York.
Father Wylie had been sent to New York four years earlier from his home diocese of Johannesburg to work as negotiator at the Permanent Observer Mission of the Holy See to the United Nations. During his time in the city he ministered to the faithful, offering Mass regularly at various parishes, including St. Agnes, Church of Our Saviour and Holy Innocents.
In early 2014 Cdl. Dolan announced, as part of the biggest restructuring campaign in the history of the archdiocese, that Holy Innocents would be among the many churches to close. The faithful were stunned. Not only was the parish thriving and debt-free, it offered the only daily Traditional Latin Mass in the entire city. Even worse, Holy Innocents would be merged with a nearby parish notorious for its liberal reputation and promotion of homosexuality.
Concerned for the welfare of his flock, Fr. Wylie spoke on their behalf. In a homily delivered May 25, 2014, he pleaded with the cardinal to ensure a permanent.......

My home church in Indian Orchard Mass is one of the ONLY churches to get a reprieve from the Holy See. Scheduled for closing, we fought like hell to get that changed.
We are pretty proud about that.
The homosexual apostasy at work...
...and Rome scorns ‘traditional Catholics’ as ‘Fundamentalists’.
It’s no wonder the Dolanites feel they can cover up the few publicly known deviancy’s the homosexual agenda has trashed the Church with.
If only....
Sometimes its hard to keep track of who has what agenda among Catholic hierarchy in America....
This provides a clear frame of reference for one such.
The same thing happend much earlier in another archdiocese known as Chicago, Saint Sabina. A southwest parish mentioned in a song entitled; We-re The South Side Irish, who-s lyrics on the first line contnues; and Irish to the core. The song then continues on to mention major Catholic parishes which includes Saint Sabina.
The neighborhood where Sabina was located was going through changeover. Engineered through block busting black terrorism . Where white flight was encouraged. Residents would find their property vandalized or homes broken into by black gangs all intended to make the area unsafe and it worked. There was never an investigation or the connections of Quote; gangs, unquote to Realators ever made. As they picked up homes at a deflated calue and sold them at an inflated price. Needless to say today that area is krap.
The pastor at that time was a Father Francis Lawler who was fighting to expose this and decided to run as a Republican for State Representative in that district. He was replaced and that parish pastor today is a Father Pfleager.
What happened is worthy of a book explaining what occured here and the the influence of hierarchy.
I personally think Dolan is a Phony.He came from a Parish where they and he transferred certain Priests instead of dismissing them as far as I know?
