ALL THE PRIEST’S CHILDREN

Was my mother the child of a Catholic priest?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-63829235

Vivien Prior’s mother had long suspected she was the secret child of a Catholic priest but her daughter had no proof.

It was not until the 1990s that Vivien first saw a photo of the man she thinks is her grandfather.

“I was quite shocked to see the likeness – to see the photograph and think, ‘of course mum was right – of course he’s her father’,” Vivien says.

Her grandmother Georgina was housekeeper to Father Joseph Brough, a Catholic priest who served in Carnoustie and Dundee for almost 40 years after being ordained in 1909.

She believes her mother Josephine was born in secret in 1928, before being put into foster care in Suffolk, hundreds of miles away in the south-east of England.

Vivien says: “Of course, mum was suspicious, because she was named after him, wasn’t she? Her name was Josephine.”

Children of clergy

Coping International is an organisation which advocates for children of clergy and it believes there are thousands of people around the world who are children of priests.

Its founder Vincent Doyle set up the organisation in 2011 after discovering his own father was a priest.

“I thought to myself there is no way that I am the only one,” he says.

PAT SAYS

God only knows how many priests have fathered children – even after celibacy was made obligatory?

Common Irish surnames give a clue:

Mc Entaggart the son of the priest.

Mc Anespie the son of the bishop.

Mc Nabb the son of the abbot.

HOW THE RCC TREATED PRIESTS CHILDEN AND THEIR MOTHERS

The Church, the bishops and the clergy ALWAYS blamed the woman.

“How dare that trollop steal a man from God’s holy altar“.

Echoes of earlier Church teaching that the vagina was the gateway to Hell.

Normally the priest was transferred to another part of the world for a few years.

The woman and child were treated like dirt, told to stay away from the priest and to move to a new area.

If the woman was lucky the bishop gave her a paltry sum to help her on her way.

And the Church, bishop and priest washed their hands of the poor woman and child like Pontius Pilate 🤢

So much for “Let the little children come on to me”.

How many thousands of children have been deprived of their fathers by the RCC?

How many priests have turned the backs on their sons and daughters?

How many Irish missionary priests have left children behind in Africa, South America and Asia?

How many bishops and religious superiors have covered all this up?

I have repeatedly read that bishops prefer gay candidates for priesthood thinking that at least they’re not paedos. Of course this isn’t true because we know cathbots are stupid and think gays are paedophiles, in fact a bishop has been quoted on this blog saying just that recently.
The real reason bishops have preferred gay priests since the nineties was the movement to force fathers to pay maintenance. Paternity tests imposed by law could have proved how few priests are celibate.
Such a surprise. 😂

One sure fact is, not all those were left to carry the can, ending up in unmarried Mother and baby homes, had children by Roman Catholic priests.
If only it was as easy to point the finger at the rest of the 60,000 Irish men, plus another projected 25,000 who impregnated Irish women. Sure! it would be grand, wouldn’t it?
The women concerned never spill the beans on who the Father’s involved are. I would say many errant RELUCTANT Fathers were on a ship out of the country the minute pregnancy was mentioned, never to be heard of again.
The same applies the Roman Catholic priest, move him to another parish, country, continent, when trouble arises.
We will never know what form the relationship took/was, only those involved know. However, unless there is an obvious vulnerability, or the girl is underage, it takes two consenting adults to tango, and DNA testing will identify Fathers, IF THE CAN BE CAUGHT.
Even today, with all the historical knowledge we have on unmarried Mothers & their babies, with contraceptives free in Ireland for girls between 17 to 25 years, the same situation continues to arise.
God alone knows what it will be like when women are allowed into the priesthood.
How many absent Fathers today do not contribute to there children’s support?
“We have a long history in Ireland of absolving absent fathers from responsibility (think mother and baby homes) and this tradition has continued, as we still have no statutory child maintenance body”

You might have a point IF it wasn’t that in a relationship between a laywoman and a priest only one of them is PRETENDING to be celibate.
This is what makes it different, and worse, to be impregnated by a priest compared to anyone else.

Father, have you asked her or the child or the adopting father for forgiveness ? Have you supported them financially ? Have you done anything other than look after your own needs and concerned yourself with your own wellbeing ? Doesn’t sound like it to me. It just sounds as though, like so many clergy, it is all about you and your needs. Self-centred and selfish to the core. So, I guess if your Lord has forgiven you, everything is okay in your book, then ? And what about everybody else in this sorry story ? I suspect you haven’t even thought about that. You are just happy that everything has worked out for you.

No, you asked Christ alone for forgiveness, because, as usual, you were thinking only of yourself: of YOUR salvation.

I’m not too sure about blaming Mothers, children when adults will make their own decisions as, we all did, I certainly did.
I agree, at least Mother’s should constantly point out to their sons and, daughters the responsibilities that come with creating a life, and it is a lifetime commitment.
With the morning after pill, presumably there will be less unwanted pregnancies, irrespective of how any of you find this immoral. Girls will get themselves pregnant either, because they want a baby, or they can ensnare the man involved, no shock! horror”, it does happen, and will continue to happen, at times with not the outcome they expected or wanted.

Interesting to note that Coping International provide a safe & confidential space for victims to share information & to communicate away from the evil sabotagers from the RCC. The presence of clergy and members trolling your blog to glean information for pending defence and for the purposes of attempting to identify whistleblowers to execute intimidation, harrassment, data & security breaches, stalking etc., is preventing victims and survivors from sharing in a safe environment. These clergy & members are only on here to sabotage your efforts to help victims & survivors & contribute nothing valuable.

Priests who father children often get funnelled in to chaplaincy jobs that pay a nice salary, with the presumption that the priest will do the decent thing and support the mother and child. Ministries like hospital, prison, military chaplaincy. Always worth asking a few questions about the characters in those ministries, and you will often find that they are there for a good reason. Namely a child that needs supporting.

When a religious community raises red flags, where should Catholics go for transparent answers?

November 29 2022.
“When Natalie Schuldt heard this spring that her bishop had invited members of the Institute of the Incarnate Word (IVE) to establish a presence in their Diocese of Fairbanks, Alaska, she was concerned.
“Just a little bit of investigation into their order drew a lot of red flags for me and for others,” she told The Pillar. “The Institute of the Incarnate Word was founded in San Rafael, Argentina in 1984 by Fr. Carlos Miguel Buela.
In 2016, the Vatican confirmed that Buela had been found guilty of sexual misconduct with IVE seminarians.” “ But accountability requires transparency,” she said.

The red flags are very clear in the case of the IVE but it’s more tricky for people to tell when nobody has been found guilty of anything.
An example would be the Society of St John (led by Carlos Urrutigoity) until it was suppressed. There were still hints:
– It moved several times
– Its ministry was to youngsters
– It had grandiose plans that never happened
Another example would be one that appeared on this blog’s predecessor, Farnborough Abbey, where no action has been taken but there are still many red flags:
– Many, many young men have entered and left, and the community remains miniscule.
– The chapter split down the middle after an abortive abbatial election which is why the community is completely different people from then.
– Several people have gone public about concerns but it just continues.
It is now very clear that the church will not act on concerns or complaints unless forced to and so the faithful are forced to identify red flags themselves.

6.44 here’s another red flag operation for your collection.
Many of you had a collective pow wow with your nice priest and said your hopes for your parish. This got hijacked by “animators” despite the best intentions of your priest or of a decent bishop.
This is the sinister contrivance being imposed on you and you aren’t allowed any scope for disagreement or detachment:
/// profound re-appropriation of the common dignity of all the baptised ///
<<>>
>>> a spiritual perspective, which envisages the horizon of synodal missionary conversion <<<
In other words, the rogue enclave is stealing from you your baptism, your conscience, your conversion, your mission and your spirituality.
You and your priest and any bishop of goodwill need to carry on accepting that the only way you will get anywhere will be the only way you ever did, and that was when you were happy to go behind the back of the superapostles as the God given Scriptures said all along.

Women who get involved with priests are not more immoral than the men, but they must be incredibly naive or stupid. Why would you have a child with a man who, by the very act of having the affair, is demonstrating his unreliability and inability to keep a promise?

5.17: Scots Lass, the same is true if married women who shack up with clerics. They too are breaking solemn vows, are liars, cheaters and foolish. I feel pity for their husbands or partners and families. Women are immoral in this respect and utterly irresponsible.

The immorality is equal on both sides but as it is women who are left holding the baby, they should be careful not to have affairs with married men or priests, who are obviously scumbags. That applies regardless of the woman’s own marital status.

I would like to apologise for my reaction to ‘Martins’ comment yesterday, asking me if I would like a sponsor.
Martin, I would love to take you up on that offer. After getting my stomach pumped in the RVH overnight for the 3rd time in 4 weeks I think it is time to accept help when it is offered.
I hope you are keeping well Pat, please keep me in your prayers.

Wow, this piece has really touched me. My granny’s twin brother was a Priest, and was widely known to have fathered at least 3 children.

Your Granny if she was a respectable Catholic woman must have been horrified if it was widely known that he had fathered at least three children!!! When was this?

I don’t understand why men become priests, what are they all hiding from or scared off? Have they been brainwashed at some stage in life?

Like

It’s severe poor self esteem, coupled with cult mind control, seeking the high social standing of the priest in the cult, inability to tell mother why they’ve never met a special girl, inability to cope with the real world, religious delusions, guilt about masturbation, and a desire for a respectable front for crime.
The abuse scandal is what has ended recruitment because the priesthood is no longer a respectable front.

Well done friend of the blog. Me and our lot got together and baptised my wee one on the Lagan tow path, with a few cans and sandwiches and it was more meaningful and genuine.

I’ve been quite impressed by the dedication and work of women priests in the various Anglican and other churches. I suspect the Romani and Graeci are watching them too.
Actually I’ve always found most nuns and many women infinitely more pious than men.
BTY, didn’t your own Bishop Patrick ordain a very pious lady a priest? So, what’s the problem?
Pious, I use in the Latin sense of true devotion to God, country, family…

Forgive my ignorance re basic Catholic education as regards to sacremental ordination ‘mark’.
Just wondering re orthological change or permanent mark, Does it pass from father (priest) to his son🤷‍♀️ (any priests who has a son including St Augustine)
