Don't look now but there's trouble in a Catholic church. I'll give you a minute to recover from the shock....OK, it could be worse right?
Apparently Pastor Charles Schultz isn't exactly a "Mother Theresa". The following are a partial list of complaints from both parishioners and staff:
-Using profanity
-Being a bully
-Made a derogatory remark
-"Schultz took his thumb and pushed it into the girl's spinal cord"
-"grabbed a 15-year-old girl by both arms because she was not praying correctly"
Bishop Gerald Barnes of the Diocese of San Bernardino has placed this guy on six month leave while he decides what to do with him but it appears Upland is not in his future...other than Upland PD anyway.
Really??? You need more than an hour to consider this Bishop? Schultz's strengths clearly are not in dealing with the public. Maybe a Union Boss or Sports Agent. Surely they can find something for him in another city where he works behind the scenes.
I don't belong to the church but I heard that people were told that Schultz was taking a medical leave. Yikes!! Why is the truth so hard to say. Disiplinary action does not equal Medical Leave. People apparently loved Father Ned but he may have been forced into retirement to make way for this guy. Another Yikes. Schultzy may have a history of bad behavior. Yikes three, you're out.
DB has the details.

You forgot about the hostile work enviornment and the EEOC complaint. Getting redtagged by the city code enforcement for not having a permit on a construction project. Hiring two high priced companions to work at the parish without approval. Spending lavishly to upgrade the rectory. Buying groceries for a male companion over the last several months. Erratic ranting from the pulpit......
