It pains me to know that he will probably never get his reputation back, dispute the fact that he did nothing wrong. He's not just a good priest, he's one of the best men I know. I'm praying hard for him and his parish...

Father was not removed from the parish. He was placed on an administrative leave. Father Bill Hayward indicated that Father Ireneusz might be back in three weeks (7 p.m. Mass, Sunday 11/17). He did not indicate a replacement would arrive in three weeks. I am Facebook friends with Father Ireneusz and I saw the post in question. I know there have been horrible cases of abuse in the Church, but this is not one of those cases. This is a case of how gossip can get exaggerated and ruin lives. Father shared one story (an ill advised "share") that warned of the dangers of a new trend- young adult sex parties. The text of the story was in Polish. Unfortunately, a picture that contained nudity accompanied the story. Was it not very smart to share this- absolutely. Does it mean he all of a sudden has a history of sharing porn- absolutely not. Those that decided to gossip without knowing the facts should be ASHAMED of themselves. ....and by the way, my teenage daughter also saw the post, didn't read it because it was in Polish, but thought the picture seemed out of character compared to his usual posts....and she put it out of her mind. That is, until all these stories, these lies decided to become "fact" in the media so quick to judge based on gossip. Kenosha, SE Wisconsin, and anybody that contributed to this gossip should be ASHAMED of themselves and what the gossip has done the reputation of a good man. My family, including my children, are devastated. P.S. Father had a right to be concerned about the trend. Although I had never heard about this type of "party", my high school age daughter HAD heard about these parties.
