text: I am already a published author, Scott. My book was well received by ordinary Catholics and attacked by, well you know who. 
  
  The whole 'priest' thing started on here when I was attempting to empathise with a long suffering former priest. One of the coven pounced with, "and how would you know?!" I said at that point that I was a priest so I did understand. Then I was hit with, "So you don't know what it's like to be a former priest then!" I mean, just what is the point of engaging with such attitudes? 
  
  It's the scorpion and the frog. Being scorpions is simply what they do.
  
  Since then the coven have threatened what they'd do if they were able to identify me, (that particular post should have seen a lengthy ban for the poster concerned), accused me of being a female priest, not a priest at all, a liar, gay, coarse, vulgar, and so on. I'm simply sitting back quite bemused.
  
  The truth is, they are finished. They don't get to tell anybody what to do anymore. And it infuriates them.
