THREE MEN IN THEIR FORTIES TOOK THEIR OWN LIVES LAST YEAR IN A COUNTY LOUTH PARISH LAST YEAR BECAUSE THEY WERE SEXUALLY ABUSED BY AN ARMAGH PRIEST.
ANOTHER IS CURRENTLY RECEIVING TREATMENT IN A SPECIAL UNIT FOR THE UMPTEEN TIME BECAUSE THE SAME PRIEST SEXUALLY ABUSED HIM.
This priest is STILL IN PARISH MINISTRY despite the fact that he has been sexually abusing boys for many decades - and the abuse is known to Eamaon Martin, Sean Brady and the priests of Armagh.
The priest is being protected because he has THE DIRT on many other Armagh priests - including Eamon Martin and Sean Brady.
He is also very powerful within the diocese and feared by many.
This priest deliberately targetted the sone of wealthy families - believing that those families would not want their respectable reputations damaged by going to the police, the press or to the courts.
However, in the past few weeks, that has changed and the family of one of the men has launched a case against Armagh, Martin, and Brady.
This family cannot and will not be bought off by an offer of money from Eamon Martin.
PAT SAYS:
This is one of the serious abuse situations in Ireland today.
A priest abusing all his life, and maybe still at it.
Three young men dead.
One in hospital after multiple admissions.
A cardinal, an archbishop and a diocese full of priests keeping it hidden.
BILL Mulvihill being persecuted for flagging it up.
The Gardai in Louth apparently doing nothing.
I thought that we had stopped all this.
I thought that covering up like this had stopped.
Is Amy Martin the new generation of covering up bishops?
What do readers think of this?

ReplyDeleteNothing changes. They try to appear that they have changed, but the roman catholic church is just pure vile, disgusting, and criminals of the highest order.
When will people learn, that these scumbag bishops and cardinals do not care about them, and just leave the church.
What are you staying for? The incense? The candles? The vestments?
Yes, there is their faith, but you can say your rosaries, prayers, and live your faith without this pervert ridden crime gang, with their leader Papa Frankie and his minions in Rome controlling you.
Sorry to be harsh, but my patience has finally snapped.
23:49 Please don't believe all that Pat makes up!
DeleteWe want the name and facts, this is Buckley at his best for years now, if this is true then police, church and social services will be rocked to its knees, but I've read many headlines like this before on this blog with no substance.
Get behind me Satan.
DeleteAnonymous at 23:49
DeleteNo! why should we leave The Church? it is these evil perverted clerics who should leave or be dismissed if all these allegations are true.
An Garda Siochana must act as well as the Ecclesiastical Authorities, they have to be punished, and we have to be rid of them.
I would like to thank the majority of the clergy who silently and for the love of God go about their priestly duties bringing us The Sacraments and serving us. We never hear of all these good men, we only hear of The Dross who have let us all down especially their fellow priests. Thank you Reverend Fathers, God Bless You. Eviva Maria!
How do you, Barking Obsequious B., know that 'the majority of the clergy...go about their priestly duties bringing us the Sacraments (sic) and serving us'?
DeleteMagna you can only dream about the Sacrament that the Holy Mother Church offers and we the laity are so grateful to our many Holy Priests who serve Holy Mother Church.
DeleteYou and most of the people on this blog will on their dying bed will send for Our Holy priests who have great service to Our Lord.
You and some of the others on here were asked or kicked out from the seminary but were NOT excluded from the Church sadly the drink and the hatred has taken over.
But in the Fathers house there are many rooms and you will all be welcome.
Repent and believe the Gospel.
17:30 Mother Church is anything but holy; in point of incontrovertible fact, she's an incorrigible, rancid w***e, corrupting others and leading them away from Christ. And Pope Francis, that oily Latino, is her chief PIMP. This pimp has done at least one morally good thing in his utterly USELESS life as a so-called 'priest': he has ordered a revision of that unholy book, 'The Catechism of the Catholic Church', to make the death penalty morally inadmissable in any and all circumstances. This proves that sucessive magisteria of the Roman w***e got it wrong, for centuries, on such a fundamental principle of moral theology, because this w***e has nearly always supported the death penalty.
Delete(Just observin', like.😆)
Mad Magna at 21:25
DeletePolly I have always supported the death penalty, especially for abusive drunken auld w****s like you.
Mad Magna at 16:59
DeleteHow do you know Mad Drunken Polly that the majority of priests don't attend to their duties. It is only because you don't want believe it. Your hatred of The Sacred Priesthood is well known to everyone. We are all aware that you tried to join it but were booted out. It has made you the bitter twisted auld w***e that you are. I am thankful to all the good priests that I know not obsequious. love and prayers B. Eviva Maria!
What do readers think of this?
ReplyDeletePat, Hun, are you ok?
I am dangerously well :-)
DeletePatsy at 08:43
DeleteYes Patsy ,I can see that! But remember what Our Lord said about the scandalmonger!
What did Jesus say, Barking Obsequious B.?😆
DeleteMad Magna at 17:00
DeleteWoof! Woof! ya auld lush, look it up, not obsequious but thankful to all the good priests we have. love and prayers B. Eviva Maria!
Pat, utterly shocking. This revelation is a demonstration of why your work is so valuable. The most disturbing part is " and maybe still at it."
ReplyDeleteWhy not name him? There may be risk, but at least it might stop whatever abuse which may be ongoing. I can't believe that you would know the name and allow the abuse to continue. I guess you have a judgement call to make, based on your confidence in your inside information. I hope you make the right call.
He has been named on this blog several times in the last few days. His name has been hinted at, then spelled out plain and simple and his current place of residence given. You need to read the blog fully. Have you been following it at all in recent days? Blackrock, Co. Louth and all that ...
DeleteI don't suppose anyone has a wee drop of brandy at this hour? Pat?
ReplyDeleteThe blog was written yesterday morning - WEETABIX and milk :-)
DeleteBill Mulvihill has already named him. If this is true as alleged, if this is credible, then it will be “bye bye” Eamon Martin.
ReplyDeleteThe Pope’s visit should be cancelled. He himself should have the decency to cancel it - pull out of it.
According to Dermot Martin, the Pope won’t have time to meet with abuse victims??
The whole WMOF is a massive fuck job. What about the families devastated by clerical abusers like this man whose actions have led to suicides?
The pope is flying into a filthy Irish church.
DeletePat, you're gone beyond the beyond, God bless ya. I hope you find your way back someday. I'll pray for you in my Rosary.
ReplyDeletePray not for me but for your children.
Delete+ Pat: if there is any substance in this account, then surely the Gardai would be all over it ? I cannot believe that serious abuse of any kind would take place without the authorities being involved ? Under present legislation, certainly where I live, the church authorities would have to report to the police and statutory authorities abuse that has taken place ? So why have the police not taken this forward if the abuse is so serious ?
ReplyDeleteAlso, a prudent bishop would want to take action if there were credible accusations, and remove a priest from ministry pro tem unit such time as things were investigated. So, why has this not happened in the case of this priest ?
Surely the + Eamon would not be so dim or stupid to ignore serious accusations against one of his priests ?
Or are you imagining this ? Or over egging it ?
Specifics would help to clarify the situation. Some facts. Some names.
I want to give you the benefit of the doubt, really. I think you tend to bring things to the light in general.
The story is 100% true and 100% horrible and tragic.
DeleteThis old priest has "The dirt" on others.
He regards himself as untouchable.
You have a duty to report this to the police have you not especially when you suspect the said perpetrator is still abusing?
DeleteAnother hearsay load of nonsense!
It has been fully reported to the Louth Gardai.
DeleteSo far, they have not acted???
Pat, I'd like you to provide facts, not hearsay. You peddle headlines like confetti falling at a wedding. You have published similar stories before. I'm quite sure the relevant authorities know about these abuses. They should investigate thoroughly. It is very wrong to insinuate motives to another person's death without full medical clun7cal data. If these men died in tragic circumstances their perpetrator should be brought to justice. I pray for them and their families but it is not right to use their deaths for your vainglorious, vindictive agenda. Let TRUTH be told and expressed before we make a final determination.
ReplyDeleteFather Mulvihill knows all the facts and has been ministering to those hurt.
DeleteA QUESTION FOR SEAN BRADY, EAMON MARTIN AND ARMAGH:
ReplyDeleteDID THE ARCHDIOCESE OF ARMAGH PAY FOR COUNSELLING FOR SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY OF ONE OF THE YOUNG MEN ABUSED BY THIS PERFIDIOUS OLD PRIEST?
ANSWER PLEASE.......
I return to the blog to state this;
ReplyDeleteI stand with everything I have said. Blackrock and Termonfeckin had a heavy presence for years.
Come on without.
DeleteCome on within.
You ain't seen nothing
Like the mighty Quinn.
I am an Armagh priest and my name is not Mulvihill. I can say that everything Pat has written today is factual. Some of us are despairing at the state of the diocese. Brady was bad. Eamon is worse.
ReplyDeleteThank God for
ReplyDeleteBishop Pat
Bill Mulvihill
and any other person who will come forward.
Tell the truth and shame the devil!
And sadly the devil is roaming around Armagh seeking someone to devour -(
DeleteTo An Garda Siochana
ReplyDeleteArrest Sean Quinn ( Togher)
Amen!!!!!
DeleteDon't rearrest Sean Quinn (Derrylin) anyway.....he has already done both the crime and the time Lol.
DeleteWill this also end up on the Nolan Show I wonder? Or RedFM.
ReplyDeleteI would respect Mulvihill more if he had brought this to light when he first knew. Why keep it all until now? That's easy answerable. Because Mulvihill didn't get his own way, didn't think his skills were appreciated and Eamon didn't promote him or grant him a title. The Gardai will want to know why Bill has withheld this info until now and it wouldn't stand up in Court because it was done out of vengeance on Bills part not out of concern for victims. This would have been headline news today but it hasn't- ask yourselves why ......?
ReplyDeleteBill and others brought this to Armagh and the Gardai as soon as he knew about it.
DeleteHe has been waiting for the Gardai and Eamon Martin to do something about it and they have not.
Why? Quinn has the dirt on so many.
This is a classic case of the establishment closing ranks.
Bill was, is and will be the whistle blowers.
He has also been ministering to at least one victim and his family.
STOP enabling abuse and cover up.
Who are you?
An Armagh cleric?
If this is TRUE today then they must be two resignations sent to Rome immediately as this is worse than Kitty O'Brien her so called victims are still Priests in Edinburgh and other parishes.
DeleteBrady MUST go before the Pope arrives this is going to over shadow his visit but Eamon maybe be safe as he has inherited it but most likely an Apostolic Administrator maybe appointed to clean up Armagh.
Surely the Police is responsible to the Politicians and they should be asking questions it is NEVER too late.
It looks more like gossip than facts but very serious indeed and Pat says he keeps Rome and the Nuncio informed sadly not as Brady would have well gone and treated like Kitty and McCarrick.
This is Far to serious and needs sorted now and not to protect the Pope but to protect the Clergy and lay faithful of Ireland.
The Nuncio is as useless as an ashtray on a motor bike.
DeleteHe is highly respected in Rome but maybe he has been poisoned by them in Ireland but he will go like Charlie Brown overnight.
DeleteSend it all to the Secretary of State at the Vatican this is serious allegations.
Today an auxiliary Bishop in Dublin is being buried after faithful service and 1 Archbishop, Nuncio, and 4 Bishops shocking yet they will all turn out at Meath in September.
KOB can rest in peace knowing that her " friends" were willing players and still are players yet Brady and Martin have this on their hands.
But the thing everyone is asking is it true now we have Cardinal, Bishops and Police involved.
Is Amy finally going to get on that bike of his?
ReplyDeleteWould people please stop attacking the whistle blowers and concentrate on the abuser and those giving him cover.
ReplyDeleteI brought this to Aidan Gordons attention two years ago. I informed a S.C. in Dublin last October. For that I was beaten to a pulp with Kidney damage and a rectal bleed in a foreign state , as far as i can ascertain, the instruction came from Rome. All of this had a paper trail. I have never in my life not been true to myself or to Jesus Christ whom I worship as my beginning and my end. Do not be trite with my reputation when you are so ignorant of the bigger picture.
ReplyDeleteAidan Gordon is Amys Safeguarding Officer "God bless the mark".
DeletePS What has Mr. Gordon to say about this....sikence, silence, silence ......
Delete'foreign state'? I presume you mean 'Northern Ireland'.
DeleteIt would help considerably if you would stop teasing/annoying blog readers with continuing encrypted posts.
A gentle prod from scared Magna, testing Bill's bite.
Delete19:29 There is no such thing as 'scared' Magna. (Guffaw, guffaw 😆)
DeleteMy local "Church of Ireland" minister is a gentle Prod.
DeleteBishop Pat, out of interest, say over the last two years. How many convictions were secured by the Gardai and N Ireland Police based on evidence highlighted on this blog. I'm just asking
ReplyDeleteOut of interest. Thanks.
Len, I dont know.
DeleteThe blog is the voice of those with no voice.
It is not part of police or prosecutorial procedures.
The police have contacted me on several occasions for assistance, which I have given.
The last time was the Cloyne priest having sex on the altar.
10 12: LIAR. I have asked Garda friends re: your claim. They think you are bonkers mad in making such a claim. Why would they contact you, a liar and exaggerater of everything. You are not a reliable witness and you had nothing to do with said case. Delusional madness Pat.
DeleteWhen I was fourteen years old, I walked into the police station in Blackrock and reported Mc Gahon, the swimming coach for his abuse of members of my swimming club. The Gardai did nothing. My father reported in tears a GAA selector called Oliver Brennan. Nobody did anything. When a priest in Ardee, I had the Scout troop shut down because of what was going on. The police did nothing. There is one more..but its horrendous ...
ReplyDeleteThe Guards have more interest in persecuting the whistle blowers Sgt Maurice McCabe :-(
DeleteBill Mulvihill Pat is not a credible witness. You have choosen to ignore difficult questions but credible answers are not being provided here. This beating story Bill relates makes the entire story even more questionable. Pat you would never have made the mark in detective work.
ReplyDeleteForget Bill and Pat.
DeleteAre you an abuse enabler or cover upper?
Pretty soul destroying set of events and circumstances that brought about three young men feeling the inner need to end their lives as the only solution to their pain.
ReplyDeleteWe have the Garda of whom are there to protect doing absolutely nothing as means of investigative and bringing those responsible to justice for these inhumane crimes.
Bill has to be commended for bringing this to light but once you speak up in any establishment (Especially an establishment with things to hide) you are gone and it leaves you as the whistle blower feeling rather isolated and lonely, as if you were the wrong doer as opposed to the one who lifted the lid on the truth in an establishment of warped members and corrupt so called leaders.
Quite akin to the Garda then as how does an establishment credibly investigate itself?
Hence the Garda aren't bothering because they can't be trusted either via their own corruptive tendancies and history.
Let's hope Drew Harris gets peace and support to clean them up sufficiently.
Why was Eamonn Martin not given Derry? He wasn't wanted, the Diocesan clergy couldn't agree either who would succeed Hegarty and that's when McKeown was drafted in as an outsider.
Eamonn must have thought he had reached the pinnacle of his career when Armagh came along and little did the camp career geared man realise what he was inheriting and having to deal with down the track.
He inevitably knows now and there is a fair chance it will be bye bye Bill as opposed to bye bye Eamonn.
Look how Garda McCabe was treated after lifting the lid on corruption and cover ups? The man was discredited the country over by those that were trying anything they could inclusive of damaging lies to silence him.
Bill you are to be commended with admiration but the road will be a rocky one as rank begins to pull and close on you not only by the so called big chiefs but by some colleagues that you only thought you knew and trusted.
Let Bill's true friends step forward.
DeleteLet the Judases take Amy's silver.
You are free to contact the Department of Foreign Affairs or the Useless Irish Ambassador in Zagreb, or even the Courts in Split... where the Magistrate knew I was being stitched up and found in my favour . Oh Yes, The Nazi Catholic Church.
ReplyDeleteYes I cringe when I hear in the news " consular assistance is being provided", means nothing.
ReplyDeleteI wonder when the legacy issues of 'Derry Girls' will become apparent?
ReplyDeleteThere are a few incumbents sitting tightly on scandal and cover ups.
Most insistent they don't read this blog and whilst it's common knowledge that nearly every Priest in Ireland and beyond reads it.
You'd almost think it was a sin to be reading this blog by their perfectionist chat of holiness.
Incidentally is this Sean F. Quinn or Sean J. Quinn reference is been made to on this blog?
ReplyDeleteThe one in Togher parish as an AP.
DeletePardon my ignorance as a lay person but what does AP stand for?
DeleteThe other Fr Quinn obviously wants to clear up that it's not him being implicated here.
DeleteAP means Assist Parish Priest
DeleteCC means Catholic Curate
Adm means Administrator of a Parish
Perhaps Fr Mulvihill should set up his own blog site, Bp Pat, so you can get back to simple, everyday tales of priestly life, e.g., priests and sems found in bed together, or dirty old girls on Grindr live. Happy days!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry. There will be plenty of those stories.
DeleteBut we must also look after serious cases and victims.
Sorry if you find it heavy going.
Easy now Fr. you'll give yourself an heart attack (Should you have one)
DeleteThe truth's a sore one isn't it but more so the shame after the deed has been done deeply rooted with the guilt.
Is that the parish where a chapel was burned down?
ReplyDeleteI am happy to call Pat Buckley my friend ( I have no respect for what does not exist in the last 50 years since Vat11 that chased holiness from the church :' The Order of Bishops" . It did not exist in the Tradition of the Church until the erroneous Council Fathers dreamt it up for themselves) but at the lowest ebb when Eamonn Martin was having a real go at me, Pat Buckley contacted me and priested to me....a long time since I felt balm from any minister. I have told Pat that i don't like how this blog sunders lives but on the other hand I recognise the wisdom of the Spirit within him. Cathal Daly never did anything in his life that was not for his own glory, and Pat was not for his glory. Thank you Pat.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bill.
DeleteI have no glory and want no glory.
I am a cast away seeking to minister and love other castaways.
But here is Castaway Land the air is so much more pure than in RC land.
Mulvihill what a silly silly man you've become.
Delete12.29: More delusional crap. Make believe theology; fake priesthood: self serving bishopric: hater, leeching on the downfalls of others. WHAT PERVERSION OF GOSPEL VALUES.
DeleteNone of this makes any sense. This is horrendous. Why are the national media not all over this story? I’m an Abuse survivor.
ReplyDeleteWhat is an A P.?
ReplyDeleteAssistant Priest
DeleteReligion is big Banking and tentacles everywhere, thats why they are not over it.....they are trying to contain it.....if they bump me off as I think they might, it will be global. I have a powerful connection. God bless Israel.
ReplyDeleteShalom
Shimon
I doubt you will be 'bumped off' for bringing the truth to all Bill.
DeleteYou are more or less in the same position as Garda McCabe now as the whistle blower of a corrupt establishment that destroyed lives across a spectrum of areas and years.
I do not for one second believe you would or do fear Eamonn Martin either.
His seminary class turned out an odd one.
Eamonn went on to been a career driven individual that essentially was driven from his native Derry to the ruins of Armagh.
His seminary class mate was stood down from Parish and public life and went into rehab for alcoholism and bipolar disorders.
I think you will be safe enough Bill, just don't go spraying any bottles from parks that you might think is expensive aftershave.
@12.56 I have never read a more moronic comparison than yours about Bill Mulvihill and Sgt McCabe! Do people actually read and think about what they post on here. There is absolutely no comparision between these two men and the two cases - none! Comparisons are odious so go and look that one up.
DeleteEasy on Fr. You'll give yourself a coronary.
DeleteOnce it drops to insults there's only one winner in a debate of opinions and you are the weakest link.....good bye.
Who is the Amy classmate in rehab?
DeleteIt was the Croatian Police who beat me and An Are Lingus Captain abandoned me although I was checked in, ironically, a Croatian Hotelier housed me while I recovered..I do not know fear...I never did
ReplyDeleteThe Pope is a good man but he has a guilty conscience.
ReplyDeleteFr Mulvihill there'll always be a Judas and traitor.
DeleteI know you well and am bitterly disappointed with you. You have shown your true colours if this is really you!
The Judas is Sean Quinn.
DeleteThose prelates and clerics in Armagh who are protecting him as Pharisees.
Bill Mulvihill's new contact details: c/o The Oratory, Larne.
ReplyDeleteAre you a Sean Quinn enabler and protecter? Are you a PP - Paedophile Protector?
DeleteBill Mulvihill has never been anywhere near The Oratory.
DeleteAs you can see above he is a critic of mine.
Wherever my home is, a tent on a campsite in Australia where i would be very happy, a two up two down in Portobello Dublin where i would love to live or the house in Monasterboice, you are welcome at my table. I put it up to other clergy to invite you in...you are a holy man.
ReplyDeleteBill Mulvihill
I am now disengaging, I am on holiday to enjoy my sisters family and my friends. Eucharistomen.
ReplyDeleteBill
Enjoy your break.
Delete12.57: Pat, stop facilitating the raving, indecipherable and dangerous comments, innuendo and gossip of Mulvihill. He deserves contempt. He is trying to make a lot of mischief....all by innuendo and you are accepting all as fact. FFS ....stop this madness. I know it suits your vengeful spirit and hateful agenda against all things Catholic. There is madness in so many comments.. .
Delete12.53: Mulvihill, take a long, long break. I hope you don't behave in so ignorant and crazy a manner with your family!! Get professional help.
DeleteSo then, disengage unless vainglory prevents you from doing otherwise.
DeleteFr Bill, read todays message from Medjugorje.
Yes what you say may be true, but you can redeem yourself and help others if you just remember your vocation.
Prayer and fasting can suspend natural laws, wine cannot.
Come back to that which you have been called.
Live for Christ, not yourself no matter how you think you are going to get those guilty to repent.
Call Fr McGinnity.
There was a young gaa man who committed suicide near there. ??????
ReplyDeleteHow did the Croatian Police injure your rectum as you've claimed earlier? I'm rather genuinely baffled here because you have blamed so many this morning. Gardai, Archbishops, safeguarding officer, GAA official, Scout leader, an Irish Ambassador, Croation Police, Aer Lingus pilot..... I just don't know what to think to be fair and honest.
ReplyDeleteToo much for you 13.03
ReplyDeleteTake it easy
You get a bleed in that orifice if your kidneys are damaged. No, they most certainly did not rape me, that was established .
ReplyDeleteI double checked with a doctor friend just to confirm my suspicion and they confirmed - it is physically impossible for a kidney injury to result in rectal bleeding. A kidney injury would result in blood in urine not in the rectum. What you're describing is biologically impossible.
DeleteI blamed nobody, you of weak intellect.
ReplyDeleteI can't recall using the word rape or inferring it Father. Perhaps my intellect may be weak as you suggest but to answer my question by demeaning me in the process says a lot about you as an individual. I'm sorry but I now feel you are a nasty and vindictive person. Enjoy your holiday.
DeleteDear Friend, I'm sorry you feel hurt. Please understand that Bill is under a lot of pressure and attack just now. Give him the benefit of the doubt a d say a prayer for him. PAT.
DeleteI am gone now.
ReplyDelete... Farewell.
Delete13.36: Good....farewell....on a one way ticket!
DeletePlease William...do not demean other posters...you have no idea who posts here.
ReplyDeleteIt’s not good to attack others intellect...we have no idea why the Croatian police behaved like this.
Were you drunk at the time?...sounds like you were on route to Medjugoria.
I’ve just posted here for the first time today.
Pat ...what are the bishops doing about this blog?....are they just singing dumb?..,because the rest of us,the laity, certainly aren’t..
*My comment is written without prejudice to today's blog's allegations. I have no way of judging their veracity.
ReplyDeleteCardinal McCarrick could only do what he is alleged to have done with the collaboration of others. If true, then it is obvious that, members of the clergy and others, willingly turned a blind eye, out of loyalty, fear, malice, who knows, but without their assistance, the alleged incidents could not have taken place and continued, and he could not have climbed up to such a high position in the hierarchy.
Have the hierarchy learned nothing? Silence, covering-up, and exiling whistleblowers doesn't work in the long term. The reputation of the Church would still be intact if those who perpetrated crimes and immoral acts were ousted.
Unfortunately, in Ireland, the hierarchy still think that the Church has a reputation to uphold. Are they crazy? Eamonn Martin thinks that a Papal visit will bring people back to the Church, really Your Grace? People have left the Church because bishops and priests have let them down with their lies and deception, and with their watered-down people-pleasing version of Catholicism.
In the past few years the hierarchy have again supported Maynooth and ignored the allegations made by seminarians. They have expelled good men who tried to tell them the truth. Time and time again you back a rotten system which ultimately leads to decay. Rotten seminaries lead to rotten parishes, lead to rotten dioceses. Stop the rot at source!
Stop covering-up! Clean up the Church, oust the false-shepherds and then you can start to renew the Church. Only then will people be attracted back. If you're not willing to do this, then pack up and leave!
There's a lot more to the Maynooth story and it extends much further than Maynooth.
DeleteWhy were active homosexuals protected and the whistleblowers thrown out? Who's protecting who? Who's got dirt on who?
Watched Spotlight, the Boston film, last night for the second time.
ReplyDeleteWhere is Cardinal Law now?
Pat, what is going on, why are the bosses in Armagh allowing this.
Is monisterboyce in the Armagh dioceses as well as Louth?
Is that accused priest still in a parish...or has he fled?
Please keep us updated.
Carinal Law died last year, so I imagine his current location is probably in a tomb.
DeleteWhere is Cardinal Law now? Dead.
DeleteWhat I really wanted to know is.
DeleteDid Cardinal Law get the sack.?
did he get jail?
Or was his coverupping criticised?
Or was all glossed over..as is usual in Armagh
Google it ffs.
Delete1303 may not be a priest.
ReplyDeleteMany housewifes post here...many business people post here...male and female...various faithful people follow Pat.
You are an inspiration to all who post here Pat xx
@14:29, well said and here here.
ReplyDeletePat your using and abusing a very disturbed man with serious mental health problems for your own gains!
ReplyDeleteThis poor man is very unwell at this time and has been for a number of years now.
Please please desist from this kind of behaviour, it's hard enough for Bill's immediate family never mind us parishioners.
Monasterboice parishioners.
Why total silence from the two Archbishops and the Nuncio.
ReplyDeleteSurely if not true the Churches Legal people will be all over this as it is serious as we have these two Priests in Parishes.
One the Accuser and the other who does not seen to want to defend himself.
Come on Quinn and Mulvihill lets get it sorted out.
Ireland will be on a World Stage in a few weeks lets get it sorted.
Cardinal O'Brien caused disgrace when Pope Francis was being elected surely Sean Brady and the Two Martin's are not going to cause disgrace on the Church.
Their silence is deafening....
It does appear that Fr Mulvihill’s post are becoming increasingly more unhinged. That’s not to say that there isn’t any veracity to what he claims.
ReplyDeleteOh dear after reading today's blog and comments it's clear Fr Mulvihill needs prayers Pat as you say yourself. He also needs help from the way he has belittled those on here today who asked genuine questions or took a differing view from him. I'm sorry to say that I very much doubt what Fr Mulvihill has to say. In terms of him saying Israel is his friend and will defend him- his credibility went out the window for me.
ReplyDeletePat, is Bill right in the head? Every message seems rather unhinged.
ReplyDeleteYou need to be unhinged to even consider becoming a priest in Ireland
ReplyDeleteUnhinged, delusional and paranoid spring to mind reading Bill’s posts. He is very clearly not in his right mind - in the grip of a pathology even. Is he hearing voices? Is he drinking heavily? Seriously. He needs help and very quickly.
ReplyDeleteAll you self appointed "experts" why not engage the services of the appropriate Health Care professionals to provide timely intervention, that you in the "know",seem to think that he needs
DeleteThis blog is now descending into a disgusting triade.
ReplyDeleteAre posters suggesting that just because a poster...Bill... in this case..has mental health issues..his posts are to be dismissed.
How low can some on here sink...obviously some people know absolutely nothing about stress issues....shame on you who call him.
I don’t know the man,but I believe after reading his posts that he types the truth.
You don't know the man but you believe what he writes to be true. Do you expect people to take that nonsensical statement seriously? Do you?
Delete17.14...what an unchristian person you are !!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePat you and this blog's reputation are now questionable after your behaviour in the last few days. You were warned several times not to encourage Mulvihill and as usual you were too proud to listen. I myself said days ago that you were giving Bill sufficient rope and it's all ended in tears. You must take collective responsibility for your actions regarding Bill and I suggest this blog now takes a rest for a number of days to do much needed reflection.
ReplyDelete18.05: I agree. Pat's integrity and supposed moral probity are defunct - a long time ago, along with his supposed spiritual renewal. Pat is using/abusing sick people in a selfish, damaging way. These people will regret his intervention in their lives. They are being used.
DeleteBILL MULVIHILL
ReplyDeleteI hope Bill will not mind me saying the following:
I have spent quality time with Bill very recently.
With 42 years pastoral experience, with a particular interest in mental health, I do not believe that Bill has mental health problem.
Apart from his own issues with Eamon Martin, Bill is very angry at the abuse cover up in Armagh.
He is also angry with Diarmuid Martin over the way Dermuid treated a priest friend of his.
As for alcohol Bill and I had drinks together. He may be drinking extra as a painkiller for his troubles.
The reaction of some on this blog proves the following article true:
ReplyDelete"Organizations demonize whistleblowers, leaving some suicidal in an attempt to paint them as mentally ill and discredit their claims, new research shows."
...... "The stigma surrounding mental illness can be used as a weapon intended to defame and neutralize a person who discloses wrongdoing, with the process of whistleblowing only intensifying the likelihood of experiencing such negative health effects."
“The mental health of litigants can be used by organizations in defending allegations and can result in diverting attention away from the seriousness of the disclosure and discrediting the whistleblower."

If I wanted to read extracts from a book I would have gone to a library thanks. I have not alluded once to mental health issues, I have simply asked questions without being given any credible answers.
DeleteAt what point did you start believing it was all about you?
Delete18.05 I think you are mistaken that this blog should take a few days reflection.
ReplyDeleteWell the one who should take reflection is Eamon Martin for a Archbishop to give a man with mental health problems an appointment in September is shocking Eamon Martin should have cleared his diary and seen father Mulvihill and does anyone in Armagh know what Eamon Martin does and what his diary is like No NO it is a secret No Archbishops appointment has he something to hide.
The people of Ireland need this blog and well done to Pat for having it as we the Church in Ireland need these priests and Seminarians OUT and OUT now if they are not living a chaste life and more so the clergy.
Theres a rumour going around armagh that fr gates in magherafelt is linked to this story.Is it true
ReplyDeleteIt's a rumour. Nice try though because he is staying in Magherafelt for the foreseeable.
DeleteThanks for clearing that up Fr. Gates. Long runs the fox.
DeleteDon't mention it Paul. Your welcome.
DeleteWide of the mark. Your poor grammar gives you away as a Gates sycophant. You're welcome.
DeleteWhat you mean old maid @18.27 is that you are a nosey busybody gossip mouthed shi*e who relies on the blog for tittle tattle. It's not the people of Ireland who need the blog it's you. Get back behind your twitching net curtains.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous @17.24 has it right! Who has the dirt on who? What is that dirt?
ReplyDeleteTIME TO REVEAL ALL -this drip drip feed, speculation and innuendo is no good
Oh dear, @21:32 ! "Who has the dirt on WHOM !" You should have understood this when in primary school. One is the subjective pronoun (who); the other is the objective case (whom). It's basic stuff. But it's important. Please !
DeleteBp Pat, I long for the good old days when priests only humped seminarians on the altar.
ReplyDelete23:01, May the lord be in your heart and help you to be just and holy.
Deleteah go way i dont need him. all i need is my bottle of chardonnay you fruitcake. theres no god. no jesus. its made up ya old fruit. I don;t beleive that shi*e.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous at 23:54
ReplyDeleteYour in for a big shock, your bottle of chardonnay won't help you when you die roarin' ya auld fruit. Is that you Polly?
Why wd anyone need to die roaring.
ReplyDeleteMost people are unconscious if and when they die naturally .......and morphine is given freely to those
in severe pain.
Pat did the police get back to you regarding Bill.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the update and can you tell us more re the young men who took their own lives
