Kresta In The Afternoon: Controversial Chicago priest to be moved from urba...

Kresta In The Afternoon: Controversial Chicago priest to be moved from urba...: "Cardinal Francis George of Chicago may soon remove a controversial priest from the urban parish where he has been pastor for 30 years."

Father Michael Pfleger met with Cardinal George this week, evidently to discuss a move out of St. Sabina parish. Father Pfleger, a fiery political activist, has drawn criticism for several public statements. In 2008 he was disciplined with a short leave of absence after he mocked Hillary Clinton, then a Democratic candidate who was opposed Father Pfleger’s own favorite contender, Barack Obama. Last year he was called on the carpet once again after delivering a sermon in which he said flatly that “there should be women priests.”


About time!

This man is a disgrace to his vocation. He should not only be removed from his parish but be considered to be defrocked.  How can a priest such as him be allowed to stay and spread his messages of discord for thirty years? does he have something over The Bishop that may need to be exposed? It just makes you wonder, with all the past cover ups, how he has been given special privilege being so hateful and spreading false messages in the name of Catholicism.

Forgive me Lord for being angry, I just don't understand...
