Now They're Warning People About Him!
The blatant hypocrisy of the Catholic Church is yet again being exposed in the case of Monsignor Dale Fushek.
Fushek was an up and coming priest in the Phoenix, Arizona diocese. According to the Nov 24 East Valley/Scottsdale (Arizona) Tribune article, “Priest Indicted in Sex Case Opens Worship Center," Fushek has been:
“Indicted on seven misdemeanor charges of sex-related behavior with male teens…between 1984 and 1994” and,
“Faces one count of assault, five counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and one count of indecent exposure. Teens complained that he carried on sexually explicit discussions with them during confession, exposed himself to them as he got into his hot tub and created a sexually charged setting with teens present.”
Since being placed on leave by the diocese, Fushek, through his “Life Teen” ministry, has started a “Praise and Worship Center” which resembles one of those post-evangelical churches – with the requisite rock-n-roll “worship” music along with an upbeat, non-threatening, watered-down bible message.
The problem is – hundreds of Catholics are attending this!! There have been several services since mid-November atttacting anywhere from 500-700 people.
Now - all of a sudden – the Diocese of Phoenix is concerned about Fushek!!
To quote from a Jan 14 Catholic News Service article titled, “Bishop Warns Catholics to Avoid Services Started by Life Teen Founder,” Fushek:
“Is drawing hundreds of participants a week, prompting a warning to Catholics from the bishop of Phoenix to stay away from the services and not to support the center.”
A Jan 3 statement from the diocese said:
“The diocese wishes to express its grave concern for Catholics who may be misled or confused by the actions of Dale Fushek and Mark Dippre.” (Dippre is a former associate pastor…who left public ministry in 2002 and later married.)
“It is important for the faithful to know that both priests are acting contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church and remain disobedient to directives of the bishop of Phoenix to whom they pledged obedience and respect…”
Question – Why wasn’t the diocese warning Catholics about Fushek from 1984-1994 when he was playing his games with boys and young men?
Answer – Because Catholic bishops really don’t care if priests are perverts and abuse children!
The diocesan statement also encouraged Catholics “To refrain from attending or supporting the Praise and Worship Center.”
May the Spirit of God keep exposing the evil system that Roman Catholicism is, and grant many Catholics repentance from Rome and faith ALONE in Christ.
