"SUGAR DADDY" PRIEST CHARGED W/ LOOTING CHURCH FUNDS FOR GAY LOVER: Rev. Backs Principal In Lawsuit

NY DAILY NEWS ^ | 6/21/02 | MIKE CLAFFEY

"When the final chapter about this scandal is written, we are going to find that many of the most perverted freaks the human race has ever produced have spent the last 30 years functioning as Catholic priests."

Same could be said about the "democrat" party. I'd like to say, this problem exists because the liberals have infiltrated EVERY American institution, including churches, Boy Scouts, Congress, etc., and they are freaks and perverts. Why wouldn't a homosexual seek out the Catholic church, in the same way they seek out schools, gym classes, the Boy Scouts, etc.? If they were just your normal freaks and perverts, you'd be hearing of all the raped women and nuns, but you don't hear about that too much...

[Puddleglum]

They felt up McNeely, too? Who's HE???

LOL - I think he used to be the postman on Mr Roger's Neighborhood, but I'm not sure...

I have a copy of the story. April 25, 2002, by Paul Likoudis, titled, "When Pope Meets U.S. Cardinals, Will They Tell Him the Truth?"

You can order a free copy by filling out the form on their website, the fist issue is free, maybe you can ask for the April 25th issue if they have it or call them on the phone.

Yep, that's them all right.

[Clemenza]

Bump.

This is more disgusting than the principal/Priest at the HS in Brooklyn who was shacking up with the 18 year old boyfriend.

How has my Dad's old Diocese in Newark doing? Down here in Miami, the house cleaning has only started.

[Clemenza]

My initial remark was in reference to the Queens Priest referred to in this article. I was told by my father that he was in Brooklyn.

[Coleus]

Well, now that they have a new bishop, they finally got rid of McCarrick, things are going to change. I guess he too, will be doing more house cleaning as well.

   Thanks for your e-mail. The newspaper article didn't mention that I am a
graduate of St. Elizabeth school, and very grateful for the fine education I
received there forty years ago.

The Dominican Sisters who staffed the school
at that time had a one word motto: Veritas. -- Truth.

The abuse of children,
sexual improprieties, financial mismanagement, and unvarnished theft will
only stop when every Catholic refuses to permit it or to overlook it, and
insists on truthful and accountable leadership. Sadly, we have a  long way
to go before this ideal is realized.

   With best regards,

I got much the same reply to the e-mail I sent to Brother Van Houten.

Dear Ms. XXXXXX,

First, I want to clarify that I am not a priest, but a religious Brother - a detail that the newspaper got wrong. The article also didn't mention that I am a graduate of St. Elizabeth school, and very grateful for the fine education I received there forty years ago. The Dominican Sisters who staffed the school at that time had a one word motto: Veritas. -- Truth. The abuse of children, sexual improprieties, financial mismanagement, and unvarnished theft will only stop when every Catholic refuses to permit it or to overlook it, and insists on truthful and accountable leadership. Sadly, we have a long way to go before this ideal is realized.

Nonetheless, I am convinced that when enough Catholics - lay, religious, or clergy - refuse to accept "No Comment" as an answer, and refuse to cooperate with evil by ignoring it, that our Church can begin to be redeemed.

Thanks again for writing,

Br. Richard Van Houten

Dear Mrs. Lee,

Oh, oops! Didn't see your e-mail, which is much the same!

I guess we all wrote the Brother much the same letter - and possibly a lot of people did, so it was easier for him to use a fairly generic duplicate response to us. It was nice that he replied, and important that we show our support (especially since most of us don't live in that particular area) for his actions and words.

[Zipporah]

What the priest did is evil. Plain and simple. It only reflects on him.

I would agree with you except the other article re Father Thompson cites this: Father Thompson was forced to resign as pastor of St. Elizabeth's on March 24. He took up temporary residence at St. Gertrude's parish in Far Rockaway, though he left there yesterday. He remains in good standing with the diocese, and is allowed to continue saying Mass.

According to an article in THE WANDERER, April 25, 2002, the Bishop of Paterson, Frank J. Rodimer, sold off Pope Pius XII High School in Passaic, NJ, in order to pay off a family to settle a case of Child Abuse. He also kept on Fr. Lou Scurti who was arrested from being "caught in the act" with another priest from St. Luke's Church, Ho-Ho-Kus, NJ and a retired full-bird Colonel on Route 3 and Broad St., Clifton, NJ, a popular hangout for homosexuals. Fr. Lou kept his position as a teacher at DePaul High School, Wayne, NJ. He is now a chaplain at William Paterson University, Wayne, NJ. Can you imagine a Bishop allowing a practicing homosexual priest to remain teaching at a high school? What kind of Bishop does the Diocese of Paterson have? Fr. Lou, an artist, was also responsible for demolishing former/deceased Bishop Lawrence B. Casey's chapel shortly after Rodimer was named bishop. The chapel was magnificent, and Scurti removed all of the beautiful artwork, including framed paintings and frescoes depicting the crucifixion; the high altar was dismantled and replaced with a modern altar.

Rodimer is my bishop. I want him OUT!

Don't we all, how come you are not registered on our NJ Freeper page?

http://www.freerepublic.com/perl/profiles?location=82 You will have to choose NJ as your locale on your profile page.

I forgot to post the article regarding Rodimer vacationing with a pedophile priest (boys included) for the last 15 years. The boys were being molested with the bishop in the next bedroom, who would think. These two became friends before Rodimer was a bishop and while a priest.

Now see, good help isn't hard to find after all.

[fatima]

Really.

[StolarStorm]

Time for the Vatican to look into the history of the early church WHEN PRIESTS COULD MARRY. The Catholic church needs to go back to its roots.

"No pun intended but from the looks of the Pope he better get started!"

I wonder whether the Pope is still capable of leading the church. I guess there is no retirement system for popes, but there should be.
