A Busted Blogger?
Parishioners in one Seattle Catholic Church learned this week that their parish priest was relieved of his duties. According to a letter written by the Archdiocese and shared with the community of St. Nicholas Catholic Church, Rev. Reynaldo Bocateja has not been accused of sexual abuse, child abuse or "anything illegal".
Then, what's the matter? This, reported by the Tacoma News Tribune:
"A recent assessment of his use of the Internet calls into question his ability to minister in the Archdiocese with trust and authority," according to a letter written by Seattle Archbishop Alex Brunett.The article reports that the displaced priest has been returned to his native Philippiness. (Like they don't have internet access there?)
Innocent until proven guilty, I know. But, this one has me a bit curious. Yeah, maybe he had a problem with porn or online gambling. Or, do you suppose the reverend is an obsessed blogger? I understand blogging can become quite addictive...

Vavoom -- You're just a "social blogger", right?
Yes, and we can quit anytime we want...right?
Aquarina -- I was being sarcastic. Of course the Internet is in the Philippines. (And, for the record, I am pretty well traveled.)
Aquarina/fyt,
Like I said: Innocent until proven guilty. Meanwhile, I'm just curious.
Thanks and God bless.
My cousin was just ordained a priest, and I'm always joking with him in my emails and links. Now I'm gonna think twice before I type.
