Accused of adultery, Catholic priest resigns

NEW YORK - A Roman Catholic monsignor named in court papers as "the other man" in a divorce case resigned Thursday as rector of St. Patrick's Cathedral, the New York archdiocese said.

Cardinal Edward Egan accepted Msgr. Eugene Clark's resignation from the key church position despite the 79-year-old Clark's denials that he has been carrying on an affair with his 46-year-old private secretary, the church said.
The last I heard, Msgr Clark's show on EWTN was to continue to be aired. Actually, as I now understand it, the program has been pulled.....We should pray for all of those involved and affected by this...
