I wonder where and how he is; I pray for him constantly, and especially each Monday during my hour of adoration at a Chapel of Perpetual Adoration, here in Canada. Just think about this: he was banned from entry into Canada, which is now the pit of hell. Now, what will follow is what is now the practice in the Netherlands; in excess of 1, people are but to deatch, against their will.
What happened to Canada. When the Germans discovered that they were to fight against the Canadians, they were very worried, such was the bravery and will of the Canadian soldiers. We must pray and do penance for all our priests, because, as Fr. What then, Catholics? I dunno. I think all parties involved have some mental health issues going on.
The latest rumors, unconfirmed, are that he has returned to the SOLT and is working on reconciling. And, speaking of anonymity, lol what kind of a name is that, gadfly, a fly that annoys horses and livestock, or in a metaphorical sense, one who upsets the status quo?
So sad… so damn sad how Fr. Benedict Groeschel left in a similar manner. Or perhaps an outside factor wanting to destroy everything Mother Angelica and her fellow sisters, family and friends who worked so hard to build for 30 years. God have mercy on their souls, because the Devil cannot wait to sneak right up behind them and give them a repetitive series of painful screwing for all eternity. Think on that, ya mugs. As a Catholic, well, I will say, Peace be with you… and may God give you what you deserve in this life and the next.
Your post speaks for itself. Yes, I get the Socrates allusion, just not why you appoint yourself as the next Socrates, sent directly from God upon high to sting various asses and such. He has St. There is also the Conscience, the voice that keeps us awake at night.
One thing that the Catholic faith teaches us is to embrace the universality of justice and truth, prevailing and conquering this hedonistic world. We have nothing to fear from diversity, be it of other cultures or other denominations, as the core values of every human being is to share common ethical and moral codes which pertain right from wrong, good from evil, justice from injustice.
EXCEPT, Catholicism teaches Forgiveness, and is based on Forgiveness, that is, IF, a big IF, the guilty do admit their mistakes and sins, instead of casting blame on the innocence, then that guilty soul shall be saved. Not just stinging a bunch of fat asses for short-sighted motives, but Universality, divine and eternal.
The Trust you have in God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit, to deliver justice upon the wicked, to rectify the lost souls who have fooled themselves through the work of the Evil one, as they aimlessly wallow in their earthly life.
The Ecumenical movement and celebrating of all faiths which are held regularly by the Catholic Church since AD to the present. Who knows… only God knows, and the guilty one must make the first step. All I know of the situation is Fr.
Corapi responded in exactly the wrong way, initially, to this investigation, and then disappeared. So the matter is moot. Why should the accuser remain anonymous, if she has nothing to hide, and if she really was telling the truth? Where are the courts handling this? What happened to the investigation?
For sure, as I said, and in some ways I agree with you at a certain point, of the way Fr. And when his order recognized this noisy form of defense, they most likely summoned him to stop adding fuel to the fire, hence why he and this case disappeared like a burst bubble.
Who knows? Again, irrelevant to the public discussion, which concerned the public ministry of Fr. Corapi, both before and after he renounced the priesthood. Compare to Fr. Pavone, who submitted to his bishop, followed proper canonical channels, and was exonerated. John of the Cross and St. Pio of Pietrilcina, both of whom submitted humbly to their superiors. He was just accused of mismanaging millions of dollars in donations. Obedience is obedience. Ah, but Fr. Pavone was not accused of sex and drug abuse by an unknown woman who was a former employee of a media agency.
And even if there were, the powers-that-be most likely chose not to make the verdict public knowledge. These are all rumors we hear from the post-investigation, that is, if ever the investigation was finished in the first place. In any case, all we can do is to pray for those concerned. Corapi has touched many lives, converted many souls from different faiths. Corapi is not perfect, far from it, and no other saints profess to be perfect, even Mother Teresa had doubts about her relationship with God, and if her work on earth may be proven fruitless.
We ask our priests, nuns and lay ministers to be perfect sometimes, and when they do not live up to our expectations, we abandon them and treat them worse than murderers, tax-collectors and prostitutes.

The accuser-defendant will now have every reason in the world to subpoena the emails and "sexts," and to take the depositions of the individuals who conducted the investigation into her allegations.
Based on what the religious order has posted, this could be a painful experience for Corapi. Accused sexual harassers almost always ask whether they should bring some type of legal action against their accusers.
I understand this feeling. And I always say, You can do anything you want, but I don't recommend that you sue your accuser for all the reasons discussed above. Hard as it may be, the best course is usually to cooperate and tell the truth to the investigators -- even if you have to confess to an inappropriate relationship -- but otherwise to keep quiet and patiently await the outcome, difficult as that will be.

As the old Latin saying goes: Corruptio optimi pessima. We are first and foremost Christians and nobody is more important than Christ or his Church. It is human nature to latch on to those personalities who "tell it like it is" or say what we like to hear.
Nonetheless, as the article demonstrates, there have been plenty of "warning signs. Our Lord told the apostles to "watch and pray" in the Garden.
It is so important to direct our intellects and wills properly. I would be very interested to hear anyone's hypothesis as to how Fr.
Corapi's ministry was able to bear so much good fruit IF he was indeed living in sin. While some of the criticisms of Father Corapi's recent actions are valid,I would not yet assume that Father Corapi is guilty of all of the above charges until he has had his day in court.
I have heard that when corporate management people are terminated, it is often par for the course to have them sign broadly framed non-disclosure agreements to not speak critically of the corporation as a condition for receiving a termination settlement. I would wait longer to draw any definite conclusions. Essential to continue in Your gift will be matched! Corapi: Why were warning signs ignored?
