One time some chick on meth ran a stop sign at a high rate of speed and hit my pick-up, and when the cops came suddenly there were all of these guys claiming to have seen the accident and claiming that it was my fault, and saying that I crashed into her. The guys were not even there when the accident happened and yet they were acting as witnesses and they lied to the police. My only witness was a little old homeless lady who had actually witnessed the accident, and she was on my side and backed up my story. Fortunately the police believed me and the homeless lady, and they arrested the meth head for meth they found in her car and other things, she went away in the back of a cop car.
Yes, Bambu, people make up lies.
And there are people who hate Christians so bad that they burn churches, if they will burn a church, then certainly they might be willing to lie to take down a priest and to hurt the church.
Not that a guilty priest should take comfort, the bad ones need to be punished.
Salute,
