Blasts from the past. Patriot priests?

Youtube is becoming an increasingly interesting resource and is being used as a form of open video archiving.

Tonight on irishrepublican.net I came across two pieces on republican priests.

Fr Patrick Ryan

Fr Pat Moloney

  1. Oh dear, Mark-Aren’t you just inviting the usual numbskulls to indulge in their favourite sport of villifying the Holy Roman Empire?

  2. Mark

    Listened to Pat Moloney video. It’s typical of the nutcase priest who plays to an audience and uses his position to promote everything but Jesus Christ.

    Even republican priests are antichristian. What point are you trying to make?

  3. That money was just resting in his account.

  4. He talks of Easter and does not mention the name Jesus Christ.
    He talks of freedom but does not say that some who fought for it denied the right to life to many thousands.
    Priests and politics do not mix.

  5. John,

    No point being made. I’m linking something that interested me.

  8. So if he was so bad was wasn’t he wanted for extradition under something that was extraditable rather than just something that was a crime in the U.K. and not elsewhere?

  9. The ethos of Irish Republicanism captured in two short video clips.

    A great resource for posterity when the question is asked about what happened in Ireland during the 20th Century.

    I’m sure all their fellow travellers in the ‘movement’ are proud of these fine Christian gentlemen.

    “WHY”

  11. This is disturbing. 

    You would think he would know stab city was not a capital city if he was born there.  Also his reference to how belfast crossmaglen and parts of tyrone did not reap the benefits of the celtic tiger with a soft c of course.  Who suggested they did?

    It is interesting all the same, I mind reading how Bik mc Farlane seriously considred the priesthood before deciding to become an IRA volunteer as he felt he could serve his community better as a volunteer.  I think its mentioned in ten men dead.

    I wonder if that would be an ecumenical matter.

    I think I know Iris robinson’s favourite quote from the show.

    Father Ted: The way I feel now I could convert gays!

  12. I’ve transcripted this from the video provided by Mark, so there may be errors:

    In relation to Father Patrick Ryans’s statement in which he said, “Father Patrick Ryan will never, will never, be tried in any court on behalf of the enemy who’s occupying our country. I would die a thousand deaths before I would permit that to happen, and no apologies for that.”

    This Priest is definitely a servant to the Vatican Canons and has little respect for the constitutions of man. I’ll reveal more:


    “It is not lawful for a layman to sit in judgment upon a clergyman. Secular judges who dare, in the exercise of a damnable presumption, to compel priests to pay their debts, are to be restrained by spiritual censures.” [Decret. Gregorii, lib. ii. tit. ii. cap. i. ii. vi, and Sexti Decret. lib. ii. tit. ii. cap. ii.]

    ....as for Father Patrick Ryan’s conclusion that he would, “die a thousand deaths before I would permit that to happen”, we can only presume the Vatican Canon has another law which offers Priests, etc, a way out of facing conviction against the law of the land.

  13. UMH

    The man is from the Republic of Ireland, he was saying he would not be tried in a british court or before british law.  That is not the law of his land.  Can you get your heaqd round that?  No need to know the ins and outs of cannon law, just simple common sense.

  14. pfhl, the man was a Roman Priest. He was not concerned about the law of your land or my land his laws were from Rome and he clearly abided by them.

  15. We’ve got to remember that ‘pfhl’ may not be a nationalist

  19. UMH,

    ‘Milanian’.  Every time I think you cannot possibly surpass yourself, you do it again.

    How is he a Roman priest?  Is he in charge of the Temple of Jupiter?

  22. Listening to Fr Pat Moloney, I am moved to speak in these terms:-

    Behold! Satan is Alive!
