For this I was extremely grateful. This gift has been temporarily been taken away from us. Satan has scored a direct hit. Don Bosco predicted that the Church would experience this storm.

Father has been present when satanists were cursing drugs for "protection", as well as present when Mother Angelica's legs were healed miraculously. He's seen things both evil and holy that none of us will ever see. There is a war going on for this man's soul, and getting an anonymous woman to merely accuse him is all it takes for the bishops to throw their own under the bus. He's been accused of drug abuse - How long does a drug test take anyway? The results should already be in by now. If the drug tests turn up negative, then the woman is a liar. Who can possibly prove or disprove sexual impropriety of a priest with a woman unless there is a "stained dress" or some kind of proof. If not, then the accusation is NOT credible.Ray Sullivanhttp://www.catholicbible101.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-57263785793985893922011-03-20T09:47:15.439-04:002011-03-20T09:47:15.439-04:00Victor- so it's ok to malign a Priest, smear &...Victor- so it's ok to malign a Priest, smear & slander and remove him from his Vocation with no hard evidence? I personally know of great young Priest,who after only being ordained for a year is in this same position, "on leave" all because "someone said". He doesn't even know his accuser! Couldn't have been that he was a little too Tradional & Holy for his coffee & donuts parishioners? Nah. If people want to go after Priests then like any other crime they should know who their accuser is. Come on, how can they defend or admit? As far as I have seen & read on this site it's owner has never judged - only God can do that.

Even civil law gives the benefit of the doubt to the accused.<br /><br />I don't much care for your talk about seeing into people's souls as some kind of evidence to you that the world must convict priests without an accuser, without evidence, without an opportunity to make a judgment about the veracity of allegations.<br /><br />I see what you are doing and it's cheap.TTChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08738875888053745269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-31639688313183277322011-03-19T21:03:05.732-04:002011-03-19T21:03:05.732-04:00Carol, you write: "Nobody should be saying th...Carol, you write: "Nobody should be saying they know it did or didn't happen." But you came very close. You wrote, "I have my own personal and very serious doubts about the veracity of the claim.."<br /><br />Do you know the victim/s? And how well do you know Fr. Corapi? Only God knows what's in a person's heart? So you cannot say if it didn't happen. You cannot say that the claim is untrue.<br /><br />You sarcastically write, "This isn't the post that tries to imply the signs of sexual abusers are losing weight, dying hair and beard and having a tan is it?" No, it's not. It's also not the post that tries to employ sarcasm in a feeble attempt to create an apologia for priests accused of abuse is it?<br /><br />Why does a Catholic priest die his beard, lose weight, and get a tan.
