I have to ask: does the Catholic Church have a death wish? The pictures were taken recently at the field used by Glin Coursing Club in Co. Limerick. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3whatever one's religious views or affiliations, for a cleric to actually BLESS something like hare coursing is sickening and shameful. Ed: The two pictures of the priest blessing the course event had to be hidden as the owner of the pictures has notified Indymedia that they were posted up without her permission
This is a disgrace , firstly that hare coursing still takes place and secondly .that a "man of god " blesses such cruelty ! Surely anyone needs to ask the question , what type of person can get "enjoyment" out of terrorisng and killing of innocent animals ? in my opion it is evil sick minded people ! why should these people be allowed to continue with such cruelty ? Ban Hare coursing completely and charge those who partake with cruelty , including this "priest"
I am from the US and live in Arizona, and am appalled at hare coursing. I have never heard of such an evil cruel thing to happen to Gods creatures. He loves them and told us to be stewards over the care of all the animals, not to set one species against another. God said that "Whoever wasteth flesh and has no need will be held accountable to God." THe priest needs to repent of his grievous sin and turn against hare coursing and the people who do this wicked thing should be thinking of their eternal souls which are in danger of the judgement day. Stop this wicked practice right now. Right now hare coursing is cursed, no matter what the priest said. God does not bless wickedness to His creatures.
