As much as I dislike seeing one member of the clergy bring suit against another, we must hold those in authority responsible for their actions. Our Church lives in a society that seeks to discredit us for hypocrisy. Lawsuits are designed to render judgement when two reasonable parties are unable to reach an agreeable solution. Let's just sit back and wait for the judgement of the court.

Any semi-literate adult who has not noticed the problems raised by the diocese...

Any semi-literate adult should have read who were the plaintiffs in this lawsuit (Bishop Armando X. Ochoa and Monsignor Arturo Bañuelas). This is personal for the bishop (the entire affair has been 'personal' from the start) with the "diocese" of El Paso NOT being named as a party to the suit.

Evidently reading comprehension was never your strong suit, Benny.

Haven't you learned by now that little Benny in … [More]

Let God settle this. cautions Teary

Tell that to Bishop Ochoa who has decided that a court of law will settle this.
-------------------------------------------------------

the court papers, which show, it seems, that parish money, and lots of it, was put into private bank accounts, with the priest's mother named as the beneficiary of one or more of them.

Wake up, Benny. The papers are allegations proving nothing.

In typical modernist fashion, Benny has taken the “we trust the bishop” … [More]

God is just and merciful but the devil is not. The devil will put before you a sinner, and those who do wrong. Whether this matter is true or not, we just have to pray to God so that HE, God, settles this, but we are not to judge or oppose the Bishops, if any of you live close to the Bishop send letters to him, but do not abandoned him. He needs our prayers as well, the devil is gaining territory in the Church by dividing people, and making people hate each other; we are called to love, … [More]

signofcontradiction , are you accusing Father of stealing money from the parish where he was previously stationed? First, this is the first time I have heard of this. Secondly, I hope that you are not making such a statement to destroy Father's reputation and credibility.

To Father Michael:
"I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming."
Pauls Letter to Timothy

Any faithful, prayerful and certainly "traditional" priest will be Persecuted, period! The liberal-minded hierarchy will stop at nothing to quiet or eliminate a good and holy priest as Fr. Rodriguez. We have seen this time and time again, and the fact that these liberal-minded clergy are now being exposed for who they are has become an even greater battle for them to have to deal with, as has been their dismantling of True Catholicism, which they have pleasantly enjoyed for the past 50 yrs. Now … [More]

Keep up the good work, Father Rodriguez, we are praying for you.

It is not clear that the priest actually "stole" the money donated to the parish, but that large amounts of money, several hundred thousand dollars, were put in "slush funds" instead of the proper accounts for the parish.

This kind of book-keeping hides large amounts of money from legitimate authority, and prevents the diocese from exercising its responsibility to supervise the parish finances. If this is true, then the priest was engaged in improper book-keeping, at the very least, on a very … [More]

We're praying for you Father, as we trust you will continue the good fight in defending the Catholic faith. In so doing, you are defending us, the Catholic people and we applaude you in such difficult times as today. May our Good God and His Holy Mother Mary watch over you, protect you, and fill you with many graces!

Father, you ARE a real Priest.
Thank you Lord for a REAL PRIEST saying the REAL MASS.

This is a refreshing change from Sissy Priests saying the Sissy Mass of Martin Luther.

Fr. Rodriguez comments :

I am convinced that the real reason for my former bishop’s actions against me is due to my defense of the Catholic Church’s teaching with regard to homosexuality as well as my adherence to the Roman Liturgy of 1962. If necessary, I will present prodigious evidence to support this contention. I will continue to do my best to be a good and holy priest, no matter the cost. I will continue to proclaim and teach the truths of the Roman Catholic Church, especially in the … [More]
