Religious people are the best people

"I don't want to stop loving. I don't want to stop sharing."

So says former Monsignor Dale Fushek, who's defying the Diocese of Phoenix by continuing to conduct worship, for worshipful crowds, while up on "sex charges stemming from his relationship with five teenage boys between 1984 and 1993 at St. Timothy's. Fushek is accused of engaging in explicit conversations about sex with the boys, inviting one into his bed and his hot tub, 'kissing and snuggling' the boys and exposing himself to a boy."

The Church previously settled, for $100,000, "a civil suit [that] accused him of watching and performing a sex act on himself while another priest had sex with a boy."

"His name shall be called wonderful, the Prince of Piece"

***groan*** did I just write that?
