Priest removed after showing inappropriate photos

SCRANTON - A northeastern Pennsylvania priest has been removed from his duties after church officials say he accidentally displayed inappropriate pictures from his computer before Sunday Mass.

The Diocese of Scranton said the Rev. Edward Lyman was using his computer on Oct. 25 to project an informational DVD about the annual diocesan fund-raiser when four photos were displayed featuring what church officials describe as "minimally attired adult males."

Diocese spokesman William Genello said the photos were not pornographic, did not include minors, and were not taken by the priest.

Lyman has been removed as administrator of St. Anthony, St. Bridget and St. John the Baptist parishes in Throop. The diocese would not say where he is. - AP

In wonder how long it will take for Geroge T. to defend him and the church?

Is he homosexual? Some may assume he is homosexual, so I am surprised the normally gay-friendly media is giving this so much attention.

I'd rather be the hedonist and angry leftist that George said I was. For some reason and maybe it's just me but I have a problem with blindly supporting any organization with money and time that hires and protects pedophiles and sexual deviants. Hmmm....I knew there was another reason that I wasn't a Republican!

Another black eye for organized religion. Pray at home folks. You don't need these sexual perverts to reach the ear of the Lord for He is everywhere.
