A Roman Catholic Priest was arrested for selling meth to undercover cops in Connecticut between September 2012 and January 2013. He is also addicted to the crystal meth. What is this world coming too? Like the Catholic Church does not have enough scandals this priest needs to add to it. What was he thinking and how did he even allow himself to get involved it this. He would also sell the meth at different locations including his apartment. You can't trust anyone in this world today.

That is why we are admonished to only set our eye on Christ. How many time I would have been let down if I had put my trust in a minister as so many of them have fallen into Satan's traps. He works harder on those who claim to be God's workers. I guess that is why we are encouraged to pray for our leaders religious or otherwise.

Yes, it seems satan is at work alot on this earth these days. Its scary but I never thought about how he works harder to get to the people who are closer to God.

That is why we all need to have God and our willpower to stop satan in his tracks. I know my love for God will always get me to do the right thing in my life.

Hi Lelin I am very much aware of satan trying to interfere with those of us who are trying to have a relationship with Christ and God. I am also hearing more teaching's on this very subject. I feel so sorry for this priest he fell into satan's trap. God will help him through this, but yes Lenlin the closer we get to God the harder satan tries to interfere. Satan also does his dirty work through our family and friends.

Hi lelin, Priests and pastors are also human like the rest of up and some of them are bound to get involved with such things. We must never put such people on a pedestal, some of them are in it for money, others for glory and maybe a few are genuine. Blessings.

Well this priest was selling and addicted. Yes they are human but he should have gotten help before it went to far. I just wonder how he conducted himself as a priest on Sunday mornings.

I am just glad that the meths had not been successfully sold to innocent victims and addicts here. This priest is human and so far Catholic priests have known to be in the center of various scandals including child molests. At least we can sleep peacefully with the police doing their jobs and a good one too.

Yes, we should pray for him because we don't know what took him down this path of life. Was it greed or mental problems or something else?

Hello Lelin, I hope that you are fine. This is so ashameful. It´s very sad that this priest forgot his virtues and let him catch by the vain world. We are all exposed to evilness, but it is very sad that this priest has ashamed for once more time the Name of our Blessed Lord Jesuschrist. I´ll pray for this priest and for Jesus in reparition for all the offenses, utltrages and indifferences with which he himself is offended. Blessings Lelin... dainy

This is just so awful and we should feel sorry for him but he must face the consequences just like anyone else in life committing a crime. The sad thing is , is that if he had told his Bishop he would have received help instead of turning to crime. I am so disgusted by this and rgretfully, Lelin, you are right as no one can be trusted in the world today
