Has Bishop Brennan been informed.

He'll have to "altar"* his behaviour in future

"Jones, has previous convictions for a bomb hoax, affray, possession of cannabis, fraud, and criminal damage,"

That's an impressive rap sheet for a priest. Well, for anyone come to that.

How an Anglican would think the Vatican could give him diplomatic immunity is rather confusing, even if he was piddled as a newt

Why am unable to read the title in anything other than Father Jack's voice?

 

[mcshroom]

The alcohol was only resting in his bloodstream

Give the guy a break. He got comprehensively pissed up and didn't exactly cover himself in glory, but just because he's a priest doesn't mean that he's some kind of saint. It get's a bit more serious if this rap sheet came after he became one.
"Jones, has previous convictions for a bomb hoax, affray, possession of cannabis, fraud, and criminal damage,"

Regarding the 3 bottles of wine......excused as he was merely trying it out to ensure it was acceptable for holy communion.
Regarding the gin & vodka.......he swore it was only water when he bought it and said "begorrah.....another miracle"
Plus......he was preparing to apply....if they ever did a remake of Father Ted.
I therefore exonorate him providing he says 3 hail Mary's and puts a fiver in the box.
