General Description:

These days Catholics and non-Catholics alike are asking, "How did the American Catholic priesthood go from an image of wise, strong men like Spencer Tracy in Boys Town and Bing Crosby in Going My Way, to an image of "pedophile priests"?" In the best-selling book Goodbye, Good Men, Catholic author and investigative reporter Michael S. Rose provides the shocking answer - an answer that you won't hear from the mainstream news media!
Now, by special arrangement with the publisher, St. Joseph Communications has produced an exclusive audio version of Goodbye, Good Men read by popular Catholic apologist and radio personality Tim Staples. A one-time seminarian that experienced first-hand many of the types of incidents recounted in this eye-opening book, Staples brings a real passion to the narration that greatly enhances the presentation of this challenging material.

The Root of the Problem

People around the nation and the world are still reeling over the recent revelations of serious clerical sexual abuse. In the introduction to his runaway bestseller, Michael Rose writes, "I researched and wrote this book over the past two years, interviewing more than 150 people, as a professional investigative journalist for the Catholic press, without any idea that the Boston debacle and its many ramifications would blow up just as Goodbye, Good Men was going to press. Although I did not set out to write a book about clerical sex abuse, what I discovered provides at least part of the answer to the burning question: How could this have happened?" In Goodbye, Good Men, you'll discover documented evidence that the root of this problem - both the cover-up and the sexual scandals themselves - reaches all the way back to the very place where genuine vocations to the priesthood are supposed to be nurtured and developed: the Catholic seminary. Rose powerfully relates how many men who support the teachings of the Church, especially in the area of sexual morality, are rejected or "written off" as "uncharitable" and "homophobic," while openly gay or dissenting seminarians are given preferential treatment and then receive Holy Orders. In short, the Catholic priesthood is being systematically "hijacked" in order to change the Catholic Church from within!

Spiritual Sickness

In 11 CDs or cassettes, Tim Staples reads Mr. Rose's powerful evidence that radical liberalism, like that found on many college campuses, has infiltrated the Catholic Church and tried to overthrow her traditional beliefs, standards, and disciplines - especially Church teachings on sexuality. Rose tells us how, in bringing the "sexual revolution" into the Church, liberals have welcomed - and even preferred - radicalized active homosexuals to orthodox seminarians in the name of "diversity" and "tolerance." But now that "tolerance" has been exposed for what it is - a toleration of criminal acts.
Much of the material presented in this book will come as a surprise - even a shock - to many of the Catholic faithful. But as Rose reveals, these problems are well known within the "inner circles" of the Catholic hierarchy, especially among bishops and priests. What Rose uncovers in his unflinching treatment of this highly sensitive material is, in his words, "a profound spiritual problem, a sickness of untold proportions" showing how the very institutions charged with inculcating Catholic theology and discipline have come to prefer gay priests to straight ones, pop psychology to religious devotion, and Playboy to the pope!

Warning: This set contains explicit material intended for mature listeners!
