Cocaine possession by his partner? Even more reason to suspect that a financial audit of Father is appropriate and would probably be very illuminating.

Inevitably I link yet again to Michael Ryan's invaluable 2005 essay on thieving from Parish collections. It was plain even back then that financial and sexual corruption went together like horse and carriage. An honest celibate priest can live on a modest stipend. But a priest with one or more sexual partners needs a lot more. And if your partner has a drugs problem.....I am reminded of Robin Williams' joke that cocaine is God's way of telling you that you have too much money.

ItтАЩs never just one thing, is it? Sin begets sin. Evil begets evil.

And do Catholic parents want a cocaine user as their children's theology teacher?
The teacher calls a snow day ... but not like back in the day.
Oh good one!
