The Rev. Theodore Rothrock was suspended from public ministry after calling Black Lives Matter organizers 'maggots and parasites' in his weekly message.
Bishop Timothy Doherty suspended the Rev. Theodore Rothrock from St. Elizabeth Seton Catholic Church in Carmel on Wednesday.
Rothrock, who previously was poised to become pastor of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, will no longer transition to that role. Deacon Bill Reid will serve as administrator of St. Elizabeth Seton. "The only lives that matter are their own and the only power they seek is their own," Rothrock wrote of Black Lives Matter organizers."They are wolves in wolves clothing, masked thieves and bandits, seeking only to devour the life of the poor and profit from the fear of others. They are maggots and parasites at best, feeding off the isolation of addiction and broken families, and offering to replace any current frustration and anxiety with more misery and greater resentment.
