Before you read our story, you MUST, please, read our note below: |
OF SPECIAL NOTE, PLEASE: Throughout the stories that will appear here, there will be references to "our beloved bishop Anthony J. O'Connell". In each case, the respect, love, gratitude, and boundless esteem which we had for him was as sincere and as heartfelt as has ever been accorded anybody's hero.
That man of integrity whom we loved, existed only as a facade of whitewash over the man who molested children. For the sake of his victims, we explain here that while we pray for him and all perpetrators of sexual crimes against children, out of obedience to our Heavenly Father, our deepest concern and heartfelt devotion are for his victims.
We are not in that elite group who have magnanimously "proven" their forgiveness of o'connell by continuing to honor him, and even to send him money. In the same way that it is immoral to fund a physician's abortion clinic, enabling and thus assisting him to murder babies, it is just as immoral to fund a pedophile, enabling and thus assisting him to rape those same little souls, just a few years after they are out of diapers, before they even get the chance to grow up.
