Priests lash out at cult of the Pope

CATHOLIC bishops have been accused of creating a damaging personality cult around Pope John Paul II and being out of touch with the lay people and priests they serve.

In a strong attack on the Catholic hierarchy, Father Eric Hodgens, from North Balwyn in Melbourne, said the Vatican's obsession with sexuality was alienating churchgoers and clergy.

"Most (of the clergy) are no longer committed to the old taboos on sexuality," Father Hodgens said in a Catholic e-magazine, Online Catholics. "Most do not believe that couples living together are doing something very wrong. Most are happy to have homosexual couples living lives of commitment."
This so-called priest and his buddies have, it seems, lost whatever faith they may have had. They should be kept as far from the faithful as possible so they are unable to spread their poison among them. They have no moral compass, and reject the guiding light of truth which has been given to us by Christ and His Church. They are the proverbial "wolves in sheeps' clothing", devouring the souls of the faithful. May God have mercy on them.
