Anti-Gay Priest In Sex Scandal With Female Worker
(New York City) As rector of St. Patrick's Cathedral Monsignor Eugene Clark blamed gays for "destroying the church", now he's been named as "the other man" in a nasty divorce involving a woman who worked for the diocese.

In divorce papers filed in Eastchester, New York, Philip DeFilippo alleges Clark had a long term affair with his wife, Laura, the Monsignor's personal secretary. The filing claims that the affair led to the breakup of the DeFilippo's marriage.

Clark resigned Thursday. The 79-year-old Clark has denied the affair with his 46-year-old private secretary.

2. Of course not! But they'll keep begging for MONEY...
guess who won't ever give the evil bastards another dime? "The Church" has caused more harm to more people than any other institution in the history of the world, and the damage continues unabated. (To be fair about it, they had a head-start on the Muslims of 600 years or so, or the score might be tied.)

:rofl:

3. I heard on the radio, this wack job
said the exposure of the Priests and the assaults on young boys was done only because the "liberal" media wanted to attack the celibacy policy of the Catholic Church. This statement was made long before he got caught with his hand in cookie jar. What a fucking disgrace to humanity.

He denied the relationship. Then why did he resign? Typical conservative behavior.
