Evil man tried to silence him, but God has better plans.
the worst of all of this is Corapi leaving the priesthood. His sermons brought many to Christ. His section on the radio was always on when I went to work in my car and now because of this I cannot hear him preach anymore when I go to work in my car in the morning. The only other show I liked was "Life is worth Living", but while I love Fulton Sheen he speaks from an era that is different than today, whereas Corapi spoke about what was happening this moment.
Personally, watching this from the start and just looking at how it all went down timeline...I think he is a liar and I do not believe a word he says. I pray for him but I think he is a liar. I believe SOLT and think he should listen to his order as he vowed. Corapi seems to have lied in many statements or at least misrepresented the actual known timeline. He is slowly being caught in a web of his own lies and leading people to attack Bishops and SOLT.
Too much stinks here. I am not saying SOLT bears no responsibility for allowing this to all take root and grow. They fostered his cult of personality for obvious reasons and allowed him a long leash, so to speak...not a pun on his black sheep dog nonsense.
Now they have to come clean with what they found. And they have done that...because if they did not all of this will come out and they need to get above it and do the right thing, even though late...by calling him to obedience.
His lawyers may have advised he sue the woman based on violation of a gag order in her contract but he is a priest before all else. Or he should be.
I respect what good he did but at this point I find him really sad and I believe that SOLT is not lying. I do not really engage in shadow conspiracies where entire orders of the Catholic Church are out to get one lone black sheep dog.
Soon we will have Da Vinci code albino assassins and evil shadow orders of the Roman Church stalking the one good priest with the secret to bring them all down.
Corapi is on a path to become a parody of himself. Dan Brown novels do not translate to reality and for Corapi to be right they would have to do so.
Bishop Garcia also attacked, in April, his fellow Bishop(s) and religious superiors. He also said that they should not have even told people about the allegations made about Corapi...And claimed individual Bishops are abusive in such investigations of sexual abuse. He has his personal opinions on this that are not Magisterial and are his own legal advice.
So he wants the same veil of secrecy that resulted in the sexual abuse crisis.
That is why I say that there is more shady business going on than just Corapi running amok. There are other culpable in this too. Was Corapi profitable? Was there an arrangement made? If so, it seems the priesthood can be fashioned to suit. It really has me throroughly disgusted.that's the one part of the site I could find anything even written on taking vows of poverty regarding SOLT. Its pretty clear Corapi was did not take vows of poverty with them, otherwise he would never have been with them in the first place since they already knew of his ministry and public speaking.
I can't find any reason to believe SOLT is not truthful.
I don't find any lies by Corapi either.
There isn't enough evidence to do either yet.

That fact that SOLT was with Corapi for years and didn't say anything about his vows of poverty during that time before this happened. Then all of a sudden after his character assassination they make allegations regarding his vows of poverty. If they were so concerned why did they take him on in the first place?
I think once your name is smeared in the mud you have a tendency to be thrown under the bus.
Bishop Gracida is one of the holiest priests the Church has, David. You would be wise to listen to what he says.
Interesting. So you think we just have no idea yet. I believe SOLT and that means Corapi is lying. I could be wrong but they are not going to release that statement if it is lies. That is a loose/loose for them. If they had no evidence then they would have stayed silent.
Here is a statement from the accuser to someone trying to explain to her why it was simony to sell rosaries blessed by Fr. Corapi:
Instead of accepting correction, she got hostile and threatening. That is interesting.
I think it is obvious.Michie answered your question, "Now everyone is trying to cover their hides."
And I like much of what he has done in his life. But in this it is a personal legal opinion and I felt he also threw his brother Bishops under the bus with his April 1 statement on Corapi and what he said.
As a Bishop he has my respect and obedience. When he makes personal non-magisteral advice...I think he is interfering with SOLT in this case.
So there are Bishops against Bishops?
He gave his advice to Fr. Corapi through the founder of SOLT, and a SOLT priest passed that advice to Fr. Corapi in person. There could very well be more at play within the organization that you or I are aware of.
