> They're pushy bastards and will steal your eye teeth if you allow it

> this parish, dating back to 1900.
> My grandfather was an usher in the same parish for 50 years, Aunt and
> Godmother had been a stalwart in the Legion of Mary for 25, my father
> and mother had both been active parish members since the 1920's and
> when both died, sizable monies were donated to St. Philomena for

> Sunday and at times daily Masses at this church and were always
> generous when the collection basket came around. There is today a
> chalice at this church, which is inscribed "In Loving Memory of
> George, Josephine and Marie Weinert" for which I donated $1,000.00 in
> order for one or our new priests, Rev. James Heyd to have his own
> chalice to celebrate mass. The reader will understand, I trust that

> My taxes were also not being paid and I realized for the first time
> that I was in danger of loosing the home I had lived in all of my 46
> years so in 1996 I took my plight to the Pastor of St. Philomana
> Parish, Rev. Robert Coleman. I made a special appointment with Fr.
> Coleman in which I detailed my desperate situation and explained my
> dire fear of loosing the home. When I asked Fr. Coleman if he could
> direct me to some help, or if he knew of anyone in the Church, the
> Archdiocese of Chicago, in our parish, or in our ward (31st
> Democratic) he coolly looked straight at me an said, "No". I thanked

> the covers with the kitties to try and live another night. "So this is
> the help I well get from the Church that has been telling me all of my
> life that I can come to them for help eh?", I reflected the on the
> way home through an already blustering and biting Chicago October
> night. Little did I know that this same Holy Roman Catholic Church
> would later reach new depths of spiritual bankruptcy in their
> hypocritical treatment of this poor and soon to be homeless man;
>
> During this time I began to spend a half hour daily in our "Chapel of
> the Holy Rosary" which was open and also had heat which was welcome
> since I had none at home-the 'chapel' could only be entered with a
> password and some of my fellow parishioners and life long friends had
> supplied me with the code. Within a month I was informed that "you
> are not welcome here" by a Ms. Norma Rivera, the Parish Secretary.
> When I protested that I had been baptized, had all my sacraments at
> St. Philomena, Ms. Rivera. informed me they would simply change the
> code and thus deny me entry. They abruptly did this and a few days
> later and an old friend of my late father, "Louie" gave me the new
> code so I continued to visit the chapel and pray the rosary. Within
> six weeks, the episode was repeated, the code was again changed and
> once more my friends supplied with the new entry code so I could
> continue to join them in prayer and worship.
>
> In the next six months this scenario would be repeated five times.
> Though I was attending daily morning Mass at 7:00 AM certain members
> of our primarily Mexican Parish Community seemed to feel that I had
> committed some sort of crime by being poor and was not welcome in this
> chapel (I was also a WHITE MALE who had been resident in this parish
> for many years so I was viewed as an "Anglo" and hence an alien - in
> my OWN HOME PARISH!) . In February of 1997 on a cold blustery late
> afternoon I ran into one of these self-appointed guardians of the
> chapel as I was going in to say my prayers; she angrily informed me
> that I must leave, brushed me aside and slammed the chapel door in my
> face leaving me out in the alley in the middle of a cold icy
> snowstorm. This banal hostility was inexplicable but I was not aware
> that a few of these "Good Catholics" were spreading VICIOUS AND
> MALICIOUS RUMORS alleging that I was a DRUNK (who was poor because I
> was always drinking) and often came to church INTOXICATED (though I
> always visited the "Capella de Nuetra Senora"(Chapel of Our Lady) on
> my way home from Alcoholics Anonymous meetings).
>
> One Tuesday afternoon in May of 1997 I was quietly sitting in the
> chapel praying the rosary when Ms. Rivera. entered and rudely ordered
> me to leave or she would "Call the Police". I told her to "Go Right
> Ahead", and left to sit on the church's front steps and finish my
> rosary. The Police were summoned and when they arrived were somewhat
> confused and embarrassed (Since I knew the offices that had shown up
> from AA where we occasionally had to summon the Police due to some AA
> Members who were NOT SO SOBER) but advised me to leave. I did but
> returned the next day to find the code had been changed once more.
> Within two weeks some of my old friends from our Sunday Mass had given
> me the new code yet again and I resumed visiting the chapel to pray
> the rosary further arousing the ire of the "Chapel Police" who had
> decided that I NO LONGER BELONGED In "Their" Church. Within a month
> the Police were once again summoned to eject me and prevent this
> heinous crime of Rosary in the First Degree and within a few weeks my
> friends for decades had supplied me with the new code for the fifth

> heinous lie. The FUNNY PART OF THIS story is that a year earlier,
> Rev. Robert Coleman (our former 'pastor') had announced that he WAS AN
> ALCOHOLIC from our Pulpit and was going to a hospital in Minnesota for
> "Treatment"-which was even FUNNIER since the OLDEST AND LARGEST AA
> CLUB IN CHICAGO was only six block away and I was going up there

> For the next month I MADE SURE that every Catholic Forum and BBS I
> COULD FIND HEARD ABOUT THIS: I had been THROWN OUT OF THE CHURCH I
> ATTENDED FOR 40 YEARS AND THREATENED WITH ARREST TO BOOT - and when
> Ms. Norma Rivera was confronted with it, SHE LIED AND ST. PHILOMENA
> PARISH LIED WITH HER ABOUT THIS SHAMEFUL EPISODE! - the 'Priest' who
> ordered her to do this (Fr. "Scott", who was acting as the "assistant
