i feel o'brien is being targeted because he has always been outright and very much outspoken about the church's teachings on abortion,euthanasia(ending ones life to relieve pain being suffered) and homosexuality. The three priests who accused him are anonymous and their stories that dates back to the 80's when o'brien was still only a seminarian or a new priest, holds no water-at least from what one reads in the news.

Go back to the story and read it again,some priests accused this man of 'inappropriate approach/contact',those priests were catholic church priests.Im not against cardinal Keith or catholic church but against those individual priests who tarnish the image of the church.

The accusations made against O'brien were from catholic clergy men/seminarians..so its either those people were lying or O'brien is a hypocrite.He might be voted bigot of the year but those accusations and certain conflicting stories about his conducts are strong enough for him to sue those people and clear his name from the mess.

Card. O'Brien submitted his resignation last year around nov, dec. The resignation recently took effect, card. retire at d age of 75 o'brien will be 75 this march which means he is ripe for retirement.
As for d alledged inappropriete behaviour i'll love to watch what happens.
Re: Cardinal Keith O'brien Resigns As Archbishop by Ubenedictus(m): 1:42am On Feb 28, 2013
justirich: Britain's most senior Roman Catholic
cleric Cardinal Keith O'Brien just
resigned. It follows allegations of
inappropriate behaviour
towards priests dating from the 1980s.
This unending stories of the Church's sex abuse scandals is really sickening. I think
the new pope should create room for
married priests cos it's so annoying
especially when they are ruining young
boys' lives. And it's really stupid and
horrible for sworn celibates to behave thus. They force una go seminary
good question, nobody force dem go seminary and as for married priest there are many married priests in the catholic church.

the story is clear 3 anonymous priest and one ex-priest has laid formal ecclesiatical complaint against card O'brien for inappropriete behaviour/contact that the alledge happened in the 1980s about 30yrs ago at that time all concerned were young adults which begs the question, why wait 30yrs and watch d alledged evil become bishop, archbishop and card before bringing d case to light?

O'brien's being targeted for his outspoken nature on topics like Homosexuality, abortion and euthanasia. Anonymous people with stories of incidents past 30 yrs old sparks suspicion abi?

[size=14pt]News Update - O'Brien apologizes for his conduct!

[b] Cardinal Keith O'Brien has admitted that there have been times when his sekzual conduct "fell beneath expected standards".

The 74-year resigned as Archbishop of St Andrews and Edinburgh last week over allegations of improper behaviour up to 30 years ago.

In a statement issued by the Catholic Church in Scotland, he said: "In recent days certain allegations which have been made against me have become public. Initially, their anonymous and non-specific nature led me to contest them.

"However, I wish to take this opportunity to admit that there have been times that my sekzual conduct has fallen below the standards expected of me as a priest, archbishop and cardinal.

"To those I have offended, I apologise and ask forgiveness.

"To the Catholic Church and people of Scotland, I also apologise.

"I will now spend the rest of my life in retirement. I will play no further part in the public life of the Catholic Church in Scotland."
