Father Frank Pavone (extreem right wing anti-abortionist) Suspended For Financial Mismanagement

[moobu2]

George Bush endorser, Terri Schiavo's family spokesperson (liar) accused of mismanaging millions.

Roman Catholic priest nationally known for his anti-abortion activism has been ordered back to his diocese for "prayer and reflection" amid questions about whether he properly accounted for millions of dollars in donations.
The Rev. Frank Pavone, national director of the advocacy group Priests for Life, said he has provided all the financial records requested by U.S. church leaders and has asked Vatican officials to intervene on his behalf.
"We have nothing to hide," Pavone said.
Bishop Patrick Zurek, of Amarillo, Texas, restricted Pavone's ministry to within the diocese, where he will be pastor to a women's religious order and spend time in reflection until the problem is resolved.

6. Non sunt facienda mala ut eveniant bona

The IRS filings are available online at Guidestar, just go on and look. Pavone has given full disclosure to a board of VIP clerics www.priestsforlife.org/updates , then we may have a problem with the Bishop of Amarillo. Why did he raise an issue that the board of PFL did not? Why should the Bishop suspect something they did not? Non sunt facienda mala ut eveniant bona" (We must not do evil, even in order that some good may come).

2. Guy should have just molested an altar boy

He'd get a slap on the wrist and moved to a new diocese. But when you fuck with the Catholic Church's money, you get called on the carpet.

4. Yuk

I just went to his blog, and found that he describes 'pro-life work' as a 'vocation' and 'pure love'! Humph, seems not.

Religious right-wingers so often seem to see no conflict between serving God and Mammon.
