Father Thomas Euteneuer, "star" of a Mel Gibson - inspired one - man medieval morality play?

"Anti - abortion group says multiple women have complained about disgraced priest"

But!

First a word from Father John McFadden of Powers Lake, ND, in his famous homily of August, 1977.

A homily, which, lucky for yours truly, was recorded by a lady friend as I couldn't make it!

Father's immortal words, as they apply to such clowns in roman collars as the Father Euteneuer variety:

"When the prayer life of the priest stops, union with God stops, and for many ... that has been the beginning of the end..."


NOW FOR THE STORY:


"A Catholic exorcist did not reveal all of his inappropriate relationships with women, according to his former employer.

"In a statement released Wednesday morning, Human Life International said that more women came forward with allegations against Rev. Thomas Euteneuer, its president for 10 years, after Euteneuer left HLI.

"The organization referred all allegations to Gerald Barbarito, bishop of Palm Beach Diocese, who is Euteneuer's boss...

"Also Tuesday, Barbarito wrote in a memo to priests of the diocese that Euteneuer was undergoing intensive evaluation and counseling..."

Good for you, Excellency!

You bet!

The Most Reverend Gerald Barbarito, Bishop of the Diocese of Palm Beach, Florida, sounds like a priest himself, who is both conscientious and prudent...

With an ugly duty to perform, he's doing it right! :)
