He can't be near kids... court order.. and didn't Jesus ask to see the sinners and thieves? are bishops not human and capable of sin? and forgiveness... oh where is the moral right wing conservative with their religious passion?
I have noticed that in New Brunswick the farther you get from an urban center the less tolerant people are. Fredericton is a nice city an all but drive 45 min in any direction and you might as well be in the bible belt of the deep south.
It seems ironic that a disgraced bishop should seek refuge in a monastery.
He hasn't been convicted and it would seem like the Christian thing to do. Also safer. He might not want to be near people with young kids.
