Why spend when you get to molest for free?

I'll volunteer to spend it.

It sounds like this guy needs counseling.

They should take back the money, then sue him and leave him penniless in his old age.

That would teach him not to be neurotic.

For a priest, he had a stunning lack of faith.

I guess it really was resting in his account.

Over in 2. Well done.

What in the hell? A priest doing something that runs counter to established Church teachings? That's so wacky and unexpected! What an Isolated Incident^©!

So Germany has had the euro for 40ish years? Or did the writer just figure the old moneys value in euros? Either way he got an easy sentence for embezzlement. Which is probably a good thing considering his age and poor health.

Dear Jerk: For a priest, he had a stunning lack of faith.

Nonsense. He was being exactly like Jesus. Jesus saves.

So he can give it back....now about the fine and jail term......

That's what I was wondering. Did he go in and change all his pfennigs during the switchover?

FunkOut: Better than pouring it into VLTs with nothing to show for it, like the accountant for the archdiocese of St. John's, Canada. Half a mill in to machines with blinky lights in a pub.

There's half a million dollars in St. John's? Oh, Canadian, nm.

Some people hoard milk cartons and newspapers, the Germans hoard loose change. Who knew?

it's like they have a Club Card or something.

ASgygus: Where is his God now?

Whatever God catches, He keeps!

I think the fact that he didn't spend any of it makes him a better person than most.

If it was me, I'd be living incognito in Mexico by now.

He should have opened a banana stand.

It's almost as if, for some unknown reason, pedophiles are drawn to jobs where they have authority over children. It's also equally weird, and I'm sure totally coincidental and unconnected, that this pedophile did something vicious to a child simply to satisfy his own desires.

I assume he just tossed the collection plate money in the air, and whatever God caught, he could keep.

/old joke is old.

40 years? How did he deal with the conversion to the Euro?

Hassan Ben Sobr: 40 years? How did he deal with the conversion to the Euro?

RTFA. He kept moving it back and forth between accounts and such. Eventually it had to get converted.

That money was just resting in my account...

Mea Culpa- I have skimmed.

Well, you jest, but I seem to remember some parable involving 'talents'.

Seems to me that the old chap followed the teachings pretty closely.

Saving for a rainy day isn't a bad thing.

I here there's a topical cream for that

/I understand it requires choir boys to make though

Thisbymaster: Saving for a rainy day isn't a bad thing.

Matthew 6:25-34

25 "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit to his span of life? 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin; 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O men of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, `What shall we eat?' or `What shall we drink?' or `What shall we wear?' 32 For the Gentiles seek all these things; and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well. 34 "Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day's own trouble be sufficient for the day."

God is good.

I've been without God, and with God. My only regret in life is not fully trusting God sooner.

He would've gotten away with it except that the Mother Superior chased him around the church and caught him by the organ.

I used to date a Roman Catholic priest. He worked in a retirement home for priests, run by the church. It was a pretty nice mansion, with a private suite for each priest. All the jesuses on every wall were kind of creepy, though.

StreetlightInTheGhetto: davidphogan: It sounds like this guy needs counseling.

Yeah, although from what I've seen, if I took to the religious life I'd like to have a security net instead of relying 100% on the church bureaucracy to take care of me too. They have dropped the ball from time to time. SO's uncle is doing it the more upstanding way though... he worked, saved up money, and *now* he's going to seminary.

/shrug

As soon as the balls drop, they're too old for Catholic priests.

Since this is fark, this proves something about all religion and religious people and relgion is evil.

or something.

I am calling shenanigans on this one.

Church taxes are deducted from paychecks in Germany, I remember well because i had them deducted from mine. From there, they go to the State Treasury, and priests' salaries are paid out of that money deducted.

They do not "pass the plate" at a German church, nor do they have preachers get up on TV and beg for money.

It might still be possible to commit monetary fraud though.
