Father John Corapi, Fifty-eight Times Around the Sun, and Other News
on APRIL 6, 2011 ·
. . . I don’t think there is anyone in the online Catholic arena who is not aware that the highly popular and respected Father John Corapi has been placed on administrative leave. At least one bishop with truth and justice in his heart – and a good deal of courage – wrote of the Father Corapi case on his blog, Abyssus Abyssum Invocat (“Deep Calls to Deep”) on March 22. Bishop Rene Gracida, Bishop Emeritus of the Diocese of Corpus Christi, republished Father Corapi’s statement of defense, and reminded us all that “Father John Corapi is innocent and remains innocent until… he should be proven guilty.” No one truly knows who to believe in any case of “she said, he said.” We tend to believe the person we know and disbelieve the person we don’t. Absent clear evidence, however, Father Corapi must be presumed innocent and must be treated as such. . . .
