That is horrible. For the people that loved him, for the people that witnessed it and especially for the kids that had to watch it.
Put that swing of the cross, the pin point precision of the hit, that is also incredibly funny.
What was it again, what they always say? Oh yes, I remember: God works in mysterious ways.
Priest dies tragically… Here is the video
Jesus. Fucking. Christ.
I’m not religious and religious people are messed up, but that is awful.
It’s like Christians must have faith, but every church also have a lightening rod.
In the words of Ecuadorian-born Mike Judge as Monsignor Martinez from Los Dias Y Las Noches de Monsignor Martinez, “Vaya con Dios”.
it was his time. only god knows what to expect next because it’s his plan.
evidently his plan includes allowing murderous psychopathic pedophiles to run the world and killing priests in the most ironic ways.
Just wait 3 days /s
Maybe God just feels like monkey’s pawwin’ it once in awhile. Maybe at this instant, the priest was thinking in his head, “God, may I be with you!” God was like, “wish granted.”
I’d like to be saddened by this, as death suddenly is always sad. That said, this is a Catholic priest. Given the track record, you have to wonder.
Good grief. They posted the video. I get that it was live streamed when it happened but reposting it? Just seems bad. People don’t need to see another human die.
Yeah that’s wrong. They shouldn’t do that. That’s depraved.
Honestly, this has become the standard attitude towards human life from most Christians these days. More people than I realize seem to suspect that he deserved it, just because they can’t accept this as a freak accident and think this was a smiting.
Speak for yourself.
Get on with your bad self.
What was it he said that made his god immediately send him?
Surely his followers would see some kind of profound insight into the interpretation of their scripture because of this, right?
JESUS CHRIST!
Imagine spending your whole life as a priest and getting cred in the faith and you die in such a way that every single person thinks God had to have killed you for some awful sin. Like, there is automatically an assumption that this guy was touching kids or something.
Like, I’m an atheist, I don’t believe that. I think that they should have secured the cross better and he died because of poor maintenance.
But if you’re Catholic. There is no way to not read into far too much. Dude will forever be remembered as the guy God dropped a cross on.
Same, that’s a super fucked up way to die.

You’re assuming a coherent world-view there. I don’t know how well that pairs with being Catholic in the first place, though.

Nah, the main assumption is that Catholics love considering some event as divine intervention and that human beings love gossip. That whole church is whispering about it from one person to another.
Go to holy jail. BONK!
