Deacon Faces Child Porn Charges
Toledo diocese deacon suspended from ministry.

A deacon in the Toledo Catholic diocese is facing federal charges of having child pornography. The diocese says it knew of these accusations for months and did not allow the deacon to be ordained as a priest.

J. Michael Tynan was scheduled to be ordained as a priest in June. But Bishop Leonard Blair says the diocese has been cooperating with the U.S. attorney's office. Today, those charges were filed against Tynan in federal court. He has not been summoned yet and that date has not been set at this point.

Bishop Blair says Tynan remains a deacon by ordination, but was suspended from the ministry on June 10.

1. There's over 90,000 of them...

around the world who have been identified from a raid in Florida. About 500 of them are in Australia, and over 200 have already been arrested.

Only yesterday the CHAIRMAN of our state's biggest Energy company over here RESIGNED because he's been charged with child pornography offences.

You just never know who it is, do you?

3. Well, you know who it usually *isn't*

>> You just never know who it is, do you? <<

It's usually not a woman, but God forbid a woman should ever become a CEO or a priest.

Before he would have been ordained and then just shipped off to another parish.

6. That confuses homosexuality with pedophilia...

which is why so many of them get away with it. Virtually every pedophile I've ever known of in my city has been a heterosexual "family man".

But I do understand your frustration with these people. Whoever finds out why they do it should get a Nobel prize.

8. There's another priest scandal in Toledo

A Toledo priest was recently arrested for killing a nun in a hospital chapel "Satan-style" 40 years ago. His friends and congregation put enough $ to bail his ass out of jail.
