What mask?
His stereotype about priests?
Post by bizenyaBecause he pokes fun at the worldwide stereotype of Priests and their
ways, he's what? "Part of The Establishment?"
Na it was more the idea that he's hanging out in masonic
halls...what's that all about?!... ;0)
Well the link only had the headline no story - but what do the Masons have
to do with anything - the Freemasons are non-denominational: My grandpa is a
Catholic and my dad isnae, but they are both Masons. Just because they lift
their trooser legs and have exclusive meetings doesn't mean they are
plotting and talking about the Catholics. Its not the SFA ffs ;o)
The link works. Read then come back and comment. Cowan sounds like a
right eejit over this one...
Oh FFS!!...here's the text...
STUNNED dinner guests told of their shock last night - after radio
comic Tam Cowan allegedly branded an innocent priest a paedophile.
The radio and TV football pundit is said to have hurled the vile
insult at Father Gerry Magee while speaking at a sportsman's function.
Cowan first joked that he hoped the churchman's team, Celtic, would
get a hammering in the Old Firm match at Ibrox last month.
But when Fr Magee quipped he was actually the biggest RANGERS fan in
town, Cowan, 40, replied: "You're the biggest paedophile in town."
The priest and at least two other diners then stormed out of the
event, at the Masonic Lodge in Kilwinning, Ayrshire.
Cowan, who co-hosts BBC Radio Scotland's 'Off The Ball' show and
writes a column for a tabloid newspaper, was later reported to police
by the furious cleric.
Last night, Fr Magee, 54, of Saint Winin's Church in Kilwinning, said
it would be inappropriate to discuss the sick remark.
But one source revealed: "Everyone was gobsmacked at what Tam Cowan
had said. Nobody laughed. It wasn't even funny.
"Fr Magee was at the dinner as a guest of the local Masons, and when
Tam Cowan got up to speak, he asked the local priest to identify
himself.
"When Fr Magee stood up, Cowan said to him 'I hope your team gets
f****d' - referring to Celtic. Fr Magee was shocked and tried to make
light of it by saying 'I am the biggest Rangers fan in the town'.
"Apparently, Cowan's reply to that was 'You're the biggest f*****g
paedophile in the town'.
"Everyone was in total shock and no one took it as a joke."
Last night, a spokeswoman for Strathclyde Police confirmed: "An
allegation has been made and police inquiries are at an early stage to
establish whether any crime has been committed."
Cowan could not be contacted last night.
