well I guess you probly feel pretty sick over this, no?

"It's a very uneasy feeling. It would be comforting to understand the motivation behind this. At least if some people had some issues of some kind, they could be dealt with. We have no idea is this is related to anything going on with regards to the church crisis as a whole. This parish has no history of any kind of problem," parishioner Ed Sentvany said.

Do YOU have any insights into his motivation? I'd sure like to know. Maybe he was molested by a priest? This all might be too personal but I guess it will come out in the courts.

ugly ugly ugly all around ugly.

 

Well actually I went to church with this kid for years.I'm an alter boy at this church I never saw this coming.He knows I worship there and that my dads a priest.And his family is active in the parish.I really don't know what to think.

 

If I remember correctly, the ancient Greeks believed a person was in fact 3 people.
The first was the public person. for example the person seen at his/her job, at High School, at Church, etc.
The second person was the private person. The person with whom only immediate family members has contact. For example a Wife/Husband, Sons/Daughters, Siblings.
The final person is the thoughts of an individual. Its the voice confined within our minds. This final person nobody can't see. Frequently its influence can be felt or observed, but not always.

 

interesting.....

 

The way I see it, the guy probably doesn't have any real problems with the church, but even if he does, that's no excuse for trying to set it on fire.

 

The first report sounds like a hate crime but the later one sounds more like it may've been a stupid, maybe drunk prank/stunt... I'm sure wondering what'll come out of this, maybe it won't be so bad as it first seemed.

 

Well

 

I guess another one of my friends was there and is now getting arrested because another kid who was there made a plea to save his ass.My other friend didnt do anything but is getting screwed by this other kid.

 

I think she had the best word for you. It's never as bad as it seems.

 

damn.....
so that hits real close to home doesnt it? your dad being a preaist and all. i'll keep your friend in my prayers, ask god to steer him on the right path.

 

any criminal charges come of this? what does the church (that got "targeted") think of it all?

 

His getting charged with a hate crime, arson, and harming a place of worship(i don't knwo exactly what they called that but something similer.)The church it happened to knows his family but the chrusch basicly thinks its crazy and said that he was a troubled teen.
