Father Frank Pavone Uses Aborted Fetus as Political Prop
Pre-post note: Please excuse the cursing. I actually checked the TTA rules before posting this, just to double check I was okay in doing so.
--- I am LIVID right now. For those who don't know him, Frank Pavone is a priest who runs Priests For Life, a "pro-life" organization. He has a ridiculous history of pulling stunts that a lot of folks find distasteful, but I think he's really taken the cake with this one. If you go to Priests for Life's Facebook right now, you can find an image of him standing next to an aborted fetus on an altar, uncovered, and endorsing Donald Trump by name. And a video of him preaching, with the aborted fetus, still on the altar. Go fuck yourself Padre, go fuck yourself. If you truly believe that's a child, then go fuck yourself for using that child as a prop. If you truly believe that's a child, who deserves a proper funeral, and you used that child as a prop, go fuck yourself. Go fuck yourself for using someone you consider to be a child as a political prop. Go fuck yourself for desecrating the corpse of someone you believe to be a child. Go fuck yourself for not engaging in a corporal work of mercy and properly burying the dead. Go fuck yourself for violating Priests for Life's 501c3 status. Go fuck yourself for reducing human remains to nothing more than a photo op. Go fuck yourself for being a shit lord of a human being. Damn you, you fucking bastard. Quote:Father Pavone Treats Naked Human Remains As Photo Prop And when I can stop using the words "fuck you" to describe him, I'll be writing to his diocese, as more than a dozen others I personally know, have done: http://www.amarillodiocese.org/contact-us Edit: And on the note of his photo, I won't include it, but here was the text with the still photo: Quote:Election Novena 7 – Today I am showing you a child who was killed by abortion and entrusted to us by a pathologist for burial. We have had a funeral for this baby, who rests in a Memorial Chapel - - but today I am showing him to you because in this election we have to decide if we will allow this child killing to continue in America or not. Hillary Clinton and the Democratic platform says yes, let the child-killing continue (and you pay for it); Donald Trump and the Republican platform says no, the child should be protected. Need to think of a witty signature. |

Can't you excommunicate him or lock him away in the Vatican or something? #sigh |

Writing to his Bishop is about all that can be done, short of someone knowing how to ask the IRS to investigate his 501c3 status for church/state violation.
As an aside, I'd be VERY interested to know how Father Pavone came about this fetus beyond a "pathologist" sending the remains for burial. The marks are indicative of saline abortion (also known as installation abortion), which as of almost a decade ago, was down to 0.1% of all abortions in the United States and has been dropping steadily. It seems almost freakishly uncanny someone would send him the remains aborted in one of the least used ways possible, which also leaves them quite recognizable, just in time to use them as a political prop. Especially given the fact he used a similar set of remains in an open casket in Charlotte during the DNC. Need to think of a witty signature. |

I'm so upset at him for this that I checked through the last day or so of Friendly Atheist posts to make sure it wasn't there, before sending off an email to their story tip account with links to the photo, the video, the blog I link, etc. Need to think of a witty signature. |

Just wow. Good luck in defrocking the insensitive asshole.

I hope he is...
Wrote to the diocese, mentioned the video, the photos, the FB personal attacks he's launching. Quoted the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and threw in, for good measure, that he might cost them their 501c3 status if the IRS were to feel he crossed the line. Fuck this guy with a rusty spork. Need to think of a witty signature. |

All will be forgiven after he confesses his sin of pride, eats a little bit of Jesus, and says "hi" to Marie a few times.

Can you get him sent to The Special Hell?

Additional information here:
Miami Herald (Although Shai Hulud summed it up nicely.) As a former catholic, it's my opinion that nothing serious will happen to him. Even if his superiors feel he screwed up, he still screwed up for a cause they support. Slap on the wrist. Help for the living. Hope for the dead. ~ R.G. Ingersoll Freedom offers opportunity.
