Priest in Hot Water

Father Frank Murd resigned last week from his church in the Toledo, Ohio area as he is “under investigation for an accusation of improper sexual contact with an adult.” This was reported in the April 19 Cleveland, Ohio Plain Dealer, in an article titled, “Priest Under Investigation had Previous Arrest.”

“The incident reportedly occurred in a hot tub at the Jewish Community Center in Sylvania Township between 9:30 and 10 PM March 18, according to township police. An unidentified male called police about 11:30 that night.”

A priest making homosexual moves in a hot tub – it’s funny, I have to laugh! Does Jesus really obey the commands of men like Father Murd, and turn Himself in wafers and wine? I don’t think so!

Murd was also arrested in 1998 for public indecency.

So what is the Toledo diocese doing with him? According to an April 11 statement by Bishop Leonard Blair: “Father Murd has been re-assigned to a residential facility for appropriate spiritual remedies and for professional evaluation and counseling.”

This also is laughable. This is what they used to do with all those child-molesting priests. The article went on:

“The Toledo diocese said Friday that it is conducting its own investigation into the sexual assault accusation.”

Translated, here’s what the diocese is really doing: “We’re going to work as best we can to cover up for this guy!”

I thank God once again for publicly exposing the wickedness of the Roman priesthood. Please keep praying daily for Catholic conversions. As for the filthy Roman priesthood, may our Lord continue to “Break their teeth,” Psalm 58:6.
