A St. Louis priest who was ordained by then-Archbiship Raymond Burke is making waves in the Bay Area and headlines across the U.S. At Fr. Patrick Driscoll’s parish, girls can no longer be altar servers, non-Catholic kids can’t read Scripture at school masses, and the pastor said anyone who voted for Obama must go to confession before taking communion. According to the National Catholic Reporter, Driscoll gave “to even young students” a pamphlet called “Examination of Conscience and Catholic Doctrine,” an extensive listing of “potential sins, including adultery, masturbation, fornication, entertaining impure thoughts, and abortion – without notifying teachers or the principal.” He later apologized.
