Clerical stress relief: Bring Out The Gimp!!!

Bishop Thomas Paprocki, the anti-gay activist who heads the Archdiocese of Springfield, Ill., said a priest who recently called for help to remove handcuffs was alone and not engaged in sexual behavior when police found him.

In early January, Father Tom Donovan dialed 911 and described himself as being stuck in a potential medical emergency. Police respondents found him wearing a bondage-style mouth gag and handcuffs.

Despite the implications of being discovered in such a situation, however, Paprocki, who is fighting marriage equality efforts underway in his state, said Donovan merely practiced self-bondage to relieve stress. According to Paprocki, the situation underscores the hardships of clerical life.

“The unfortunate result of such patterns of life – in no way limited to the experience of Catholic priests – is that persons often find themselves seeking patterns of ‘self-medication’ to soothe emotional turmoil,” Paprocki wrote. “Alcoholism, the use of illicit drugs, compulsive gambling, sexual acting out and the use of pornography are some of the more common manifestations, none of which were present in this situation. Instead, according to the clinical therapist, Father Donovan is suffering from a psychological condition that manifests itself in self-bondage as a response to stress. The clinical therapist also confirms that the strict absence of illicit sexual behaviors, relationships, and patterns reveal that this self-bondage is to be understood as non-sexual in nature.”

Donovan is currently on a leave of absence from his stressful job.

The Bishop's explanation only leads to more derision.

Where were the handcuff keys? It seems he was with someone who abandonded him for some reason.

Maybe its true that "the Devil finds work for idle hands".

I think it's more a conservative than a religious situation. Look at the conservative party in the UK. But everyone has weird and crazy kinky fantasies, some of us are comfortable actign them out (in private) some of them are chained by fear of what their peers would think.

Of course, they also tend to be the kinkiest ****ers going
