പായ കാണുമ്പോള്‍ മാത്രം ഉറക്കം വരുന്ന ബിഷപ്പും കൂട്ടരും

ഫാ. സജിയുടെ കസേര തെറിക്കാന്‍ ഒരേ ഒരു കാരണമേ ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നുള്ളൂ. അദ്ദേഹം ബിഷപ്പിന്റെ താളത്തിനൊത്ത് തുള്ളിയില്ല
 ബിഷപ്പിന്റെ "കല്‍പ്പന" അനുസരിച്ച്, ജനവികാരത്തെ തൃവല്‍ക്കരിച്ച് ക്ലാവര്‍ കുരിശും ശീലയും കോപ്പെലില്‍ തൂക്കുവാന്‍ അദ്ദേഹം തയ്യാറായിരുന്നെങ്കില്‍ ബിഷപ്പിന്റെ കണ്ണിലുണ്ണിയായി ഇന്നും അദ്ദേഹം നമ്മുടെ വികാരിയായി വാഴുമായിരുന്നു.

പക്ഷെ ക്രൂശിത രൂപം തൂക്കിയത്‌ കൊണ്ട്‌ അച്ഛനെ തെറിപ്പിച്ചു എന്ന് പറയുവാന്‍ പറ്റുമോ? അതുകൊണ്ട് കള്ളക്കഥ കെട്ടി ചമയ്ക്കുക. സ്വന്തം മകനെ കള്ളക്കെസ്സില്‍ കുടുക്കുന്നതിനു സമം.

പിന്നെ, ബിഷപ്പ് കോപ്പെലില്‍ പ്രശ്നം ഉണ്ടാക്കിയതിനു ശേഷം ഇവിടെ ചില പുതിയ വീരന്മാര്‍ തല പോക്കിയിട്ടുണ്ട്. താമര/ശീല വീര ശൂരന്മാര്‍ എന്ന് ഞങ്ങള്‍ അവരെ വിളിക്കും. രണ്ട്‌ മാസം മുമ്പ് വരെ ഇവര്‍ക്കൊന്നും ശീലയുടെ അസുഖം ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നില്ല. മാര്‍ത്തോമ കുരിശെന്നാല്‍ എന്ത് കുന്തമാണെന്ന് പോലും അവര്‍ക്ക് പിടിയുണ്ടായിരുന്നില്ല. ഇപ്പോള്‍ ദാ വന്നിരിക്കുന്നു ക്ലാവര്‍ കുരിശിന്റെയും തിരശീലയുടെയും വക്താക്കളായി ഇവര്‍ കുറെ ശുംഭന്മാര്‍.

ബിഷപ്പായാലും ബിഷപ്പിന്റെ വാലുകളായാലും അല്‍പ്പം നാണം വേണം. നിങ്ങള്‍ ആനപ്പിണ്ഠത്തില്‍ മുളക്കുന്ന വിഷക്കൂണ്കള്‍ക്ക് തുല്യമാണ്. ആനപ്പിണ്ഡം കാണുമ്പോള്‍ മാത്രം കിളുക്കുന്ന വിഷക്കൂണ് പോലെ പുതിയ പള്ളി കാണുമ്പോള്‍ മാത്രം നിങ്ങള്‍ക്ക് ക്ലാവര്‍ കുരിശ്/തിരശീല ഭ്രമം കേറുന്നു.

മറ്റൊരു ഭാഷയില്‍ പറഞ്ഞാല്‍ പായ കാണുമ്പോള്‍ ഉറക്കം വരുന്ന സ്വഭാവമാണ് ബിഷപ്പിനും വാലുകള്‍ക്കും.

This guy is a Habitual LIAR, who can not accept the facts as it is. You SOB saying 100 times Fr.Saji committed Financial misappropriation, does not change the fact that it was return of his contribution towards Church buying plus a small gift from parish community. Be man enough(if you are) to acknowledge truth. STOP Victimisation.If you want to retain any credibility(if any LEFT!!), stop your rambling BS ! If you continue with your horrendous agenda & vengefulness, you will not escape from Suddikarana Sthalam, even in a Billion years. So Change your habits. Try to to be good boy. Make amends ! Or you would just remain a figurehead who commnads no authority or respect, from so called faithfuls. Stop Your Palli Krushi. You proven Divider. Cheat . Fraud. GO BACK to Kerala.. Get Lost..

ഒരു കള്ളം നൂറു തവണ പറഞ്ഞാല്‍ സത്യം ആണെന്ന് വരികയില്ല.

As per the letter,Bishop is a Saint and both Thomas's are kutty saints.

This is what is called "വെള്ള അടിച്ച കുഴിമാടങ്ങള്‍".

എല്ലാവരും എതിര്‍ത്താലും ക്ലാവേര്‍ കുരിശു വച്ചേ തീരു എന്ന വാശി
ആര്‍ക്കു വേണ്ടി ?.

ജനം കൂടയില്ലാതെ എന്ത് പള്ളി ? എന്ത് ബിഷപ്പ്?.

"Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of God?" .

He is not worthy as the Bishop of Syro Malabar church in USA. He is a useless idiot of this community backed by some parasite priests to loot and destroy the Syro Malabar faithful in USA. The SMC Chicago administration in USA is blood suckers.

The Bishop is encouraging idol worship by forcing the faithful to adore St.Thomas. Who is St.Thomas? Is he greater than Jesus? Is the creation is greater than the creator itself?


Bishops lack of spiritual awareness is very clear from his sermon and the way he execute his authority in USA.

The Mar Thomas cross is a factious creation of some eccentric and spiritually lost goliaths of the Syro Malabar church.

Let us worship Lord Jesus Christ only.

Hello Coppell brothers and Arizona believers show your esteemed existence in the church and make it a real worship house to lift the holy cross and to celebrate and proclaim our Lord Jesus Christ in our daily life. You are the role models of the SMC in USA.

Fr. Varghese is very spiritual, he is a very good administrator and you can trust in him as your shepherd. He will be with us in our good time and suffering too.


Please watch the parasite Vicar in Arizona, he will do anything for $$$$. His main motto in USA is $$$$ only. If the bishop forces him to deny Jesus, he may do that also. First he may engage people through family unit prayer service and will divert the faithful to win for the Bishop. Try to put him in strait first. Please do not allow his dram with Claver cross and Viri any more.

The mission and the vision of the Syro Malabar Church in USA is in danger under the leadership of Bishop Angadiath, Fr. Kaduple, and Fr. George Madathiparambil. The faithful lost their trust in them and the SMC Authroity in USA are the real trash. They do not have common sense and they are carving their own Gospel and use the faithfuls money and suffering as the staging ground for their dirty and naked drama in the Holy Altar.

The Bishop is a protestant church supporter.

IF a vagabond be a ‘guest of honor’ in Cyro-Coppell, this weekend, to lead the liturgy, Mar Angadiath, I would suggest that it is a dereliction of duty. You should have assigned a pastor to this one-minded, wholly co-operative, energetic and flourishing community, before you emotionally, insensitively and cowardly dismissed Rev. Saji. Now this ‘body’ has been mutilated. You should have looked before you jumped. This is not an accident. It is self-destruction.
And you, weekend picnicker, congratulations, you are lucky, enjoy the fun (vinodham!); never mind the shadow of shame, for being a burden to the community . where else do you get such an accommodation, but in the cyro-“die-or-cease” of Chicago.
Your Excellency, if you are offended by the flocks, please, come to the senses. You are supplying rocks and sticks to the crowed to throw at you. For a change, publish the agenda, the procedure and the decoration for a new parish under your jurisdiction. That way, people will know what they ‘re doing. As a smart move, Just three days before the opening of the new church building, please, do not give secret instruction to the ‘trusted friends’ to hang the controversial cross and cheela in the new church. This ‘smartness’ did utterly fail in several locations in U.S.A. Haven’t you learned from the incident in Houston (calmer) and now in Coppell (tumultuous)? Time has come to abandon the ‘old thinking’ that ‘they are all just laymen’. Though a bit late, past experiences should prepare for the future; take up the challenge. Everybody has his/her own limits. If the burden is too heavy, pass it on to the stronger ones. This ‘Chair’ is not for personal gains. Our aim is common good for all.
Your Excellency, if you think this “Blog’ is run by some rebels, understand, anybody can express his/her opinion in it. Just look at the number of visitors – thousands! That means, so many people are aware of the drama. How many of the remarks in the blog are in favor of your administration – NONE! What happened to your ‘faithful’? Where are they? My observation, from and around the community, is reasonable. Quite a few of those smiley faces around you are just laughing at you – nobody has the guts to say “the king has no clothes on”, that’s all. Your administration is a disaster, move out.

Angady Means CHANTHA !! That's what SMC has become under his rregime. Chantha rules & regulations. Anything Can be done to anybody. Main objective in Chantha is to make Money $$$. That's what going on in SMC. We are 'fortunate' to have accurately named Bi SHOP- Ngady(Chantha) Its shocking that higher ups are not taking any visible action to get rid of this Coward.

"Meeen vanganamenkil Kaashu Kodukkanam"

That was the teaching in the coppell church today by Fr. Vinod Madathiparambil, "Meen Vanganamenkil Kaashu Kodukkanam". He was explaining the coppell parishioners in terms of todays Bile reading that parishoners should stop receiving free mass, start to give money to the church, sponsor as much as things we can for the church, etc.

Earlier every sunday we used to collect many thousands of dollors during the mass collection. Now the total collection does not exceed $500. Now that the money power is coming down, he wants parishoners to give money, so that they can control all money as they wish.

What does this bishop and vinod achan think? We parishioners here are only to give money and they can do all nonsense in the church to put claver/sheela, and distroy our peace? we are not going to give anything until we get assurance that the claver / sheela wont touch our church.

He also says the new parish council and kaikkarans will be appointed on next sunday. Let us see.

True position with Gift Tax


Do not make homily in the mass to that of home – lies or misinformation to the laity.

Fr. Vinod is telling people about IRS problem on the gift to Fr.Saji.

As every body knows gift to Fr. Saji was only $10K and the remainder $5K is returning his donation to the church. Here is the true position with Gift Tax.


Gift Tax

The gift tax applies to transfers by gift of property. The general rule is that any gift is a taxable gift. However, there are many exceptions to this rule.


Generally, the following gifts are not taxable gifts:



Gifts, excluding gifts of future interests, that are not more than the annual exclusion for the calendar year,

Tuition or medical expenses you pay directly to a medical or educational institution for someone,

Gifts to your spouse,


Gifts to a political organization for its use, and


Gifts to charities.


Annual exclusion. A separate annual exclusion applies to each person to whom you make a gift. The gift tax annual exclusion is subject to cost-of-living increases.



Gift Tax Annual Exclusion

Year(s)
Annual Exclusion

1998 – 2001
$10,000

2002 – 2005
$11,000

2006 – 2008
$12,000

2009
$13,000


For 2009, you generally can give a gift valued at up to $13,000 each, to any number of people, and none of the gifts will be taxable.


Since our gift to Fr. Saji is only $10K, there will not be any tax liability

Taking Oath Again Again !!!!!!!!

What in the world is wrong with our Bishop??????

Who can he ask parish council members and Kikarans, to take oath again, that they will obey him whatever he asks them to do?

Is he out of his mind? We are not living in the 18th century, when slavery was there.

Parish council and Parish Kikarans are here to protect this parish wish and desires of the General Body, not to enforce Bishop’s agenda of Claver and Cheela here.

Do we have any rights as parishioners? Just obey Bishop whatever he desires, by the advice of Vattan Thoma and gang.

Keep giving money and don’t ask questions, just like slavery where slave had no rights.

It is time for Zero Malabar Diocese Slavery of the parishioners to end forever.

Is going back to slavery, Thoma and Bishop maama pani gang wants us to do?

Bishop cannot ask people to take oath about obeying whatever he says, it is illegal and against our rights as the citizens of USA.

Bishop needs to know where and when he is living?

Instead of sending a letter full of lies, why doesn't the Bishop fly to Coppell and face the people of this church? Why is he sending Fr. Vinod to recieve our new priest and get him settled in? What is the Bishop scared of, why won't he talk to us face to face about these allegations he's throwing around. He must understand this is America and there will be consequences that he and his followers are going to be paying for. Lie after lie to cover up previous lies, not good Bishop. This is what you are teaching our children.

Dear Fr.Vinod
Last sunday you told nothing is free you have to pay money for everything. We are paying for you sorry, you are taking money from our account.We are paying for your luxuries( Business class flight)& other TA, DA etc. Do you thing it is from your home? If you want a money making business(Cooperate) leave that white big coat, then you are free to do that. Now you people(Priests)are enjoying all the luxuries with the poor peoples's money & trying to enforce what is favored to you.Who the hell you are to say "You have to obey what ever the Bishop says"

To All

I think it is time to bring these issues out side the church. We should bring it up in Kreala & US medias.

Next sunday's show will be a mega event for Fr.Vinod.If he try to do some tricks next week he will come to know the real coppell members. We were very nice to him for last two weeks, that doesn't mean we accept what he said.Our stand is very clear What the pothuyogam desides we will enforce it.

Now this much, rest we wil have directly next sunday.All the Best.

I belong to Changanacherry Diocese but I do know that Pala or Changanacherry diocese got special permission from Pope or Cardinal to do their liturgy services in different manner. Per my belief, our Catholic’s head is Pope and Syro Malabar head is Cardinal and we all should follow them. Why the hell Pala or Changanacherry people are becoming mad through the influence of Saten. They should try to live in spiritual life so that they will receive holy spirit. Saten is forcing them for this Marthoma Cross and Curtain. Please let them do fasting prayer for this purpose so that they will receive holy spirit instead of Saten’s spirit.

Dear poster #22,

May be it stopped raining because Fr. Joji was leading the procession? You know, the one who forced you guys to write the check for 120K for coppell church.

Speak right, act right, live right, and all will be ok.

There was a genuine need for a church for Coppel/Carrolton/Irving area.

Certain people in Garland torpedo'd the fundraising activities of Coppell parish; they torpedo'd the first chrch property they tried to purchase. After all the torpedos, Coppell congregation managed to buy a bigger and better property with St. Alphonsa's help. Think about it.

"Change or loose"
If Bishop and his tale wavers change their action and work for the community,its not too far that our Churches going to shut down one by one .We cant let this go too far. By the end of this month we going to bring media and explain to them, the inequality and mental torturing by the Bishop and his priests in USA including sexual abuse by the priests with proof.Its not a joke or falls allegations only truth we will bring out.we haven't gone this far because we want to keep our priests safe and protected as well as our community,but they are going to far and forgetting the fact that if there is no faithfuls no "CHURCH or BISHOP".It's very clear that the more we keep quiet the more they going to chew us .So lets loose all together and go back to peaceful community .AMEN.

This exactly your problem, dear non believer...Thanks to let me know this is 21st century.This is one of the main problem World catholics facing now. Lack of strong faith in God.Criticize anything, No respect to Priests,Bishop.even Pope. YAH right how can they respect them because they don't even respect Almighty God.They even join anti catholics to criticize Bishops and priests.(Kerala politics is the perfect example).But we will be defeated.Some people going to church just for socializing and to play politics. I really don't think church is the right place for you.Most of the people coming there for the right purpose.Please let them do that.

Hello poster #34,

You are wrong:
1. Posts 28,29,30 were not by the same person. But 28 and 29 are by same person (me), because of double post.
2. No respect to priests, bishops, or even pope? How about bishops, cardinals, etc, showing respect to pope? Why aren't they obeying the Pope?
3. Church is not the right place for a catholic? Church is the right place for everyone - just don't misbehave whether you are at church or somewhere else in this universe.

You are right:
1. Some peopleare going to church to play politics. More power to you if you can convert them. But it needs to begin with the conversion of diocese and certain priests in the inner circle who are after money all the time.

Dear readers,
Please don't think there is lot of SM Catholics in USA against Bishop and Priests, because you see lot of comments against them in this blog.The Majority of SM Catholics who are Going to our church are Very happy about the Opportunity to attend mass in our own mother language ,even though they have to support the church financially. without members Support I don't know how can we pay the bills? I don't under stand why some people crying about this in this blog.They may be not satisfied with Priest or some of the church officials.Priests are human too. Don't expect miracle from them. They are coming from different family and regional(?) back ground.They are like our brother or son.Please under stand this and react mature way.We don't have to be friend with Kaikkaran or other church official.If they make mistakes handle that the right way.Forget regionalism. When we are at church we are one family .God's Chosen people.For the attention of our priests. When you come to a new Parish, you are going to see you many characters. But don't join any kind of group. Treat everybody same.That will be the key to the success.You can listen people. but don't make any conclusion or action based on some peoples advise.Show the leader ship qualities.Use the right words when you talk.I See lot of parish members are not happy because most of our priest are not doing above mentioned things. We will support you financially . So don't be greedy to American $$$$$$.Always stand for God and Truth. POSITION SEEKERS-Please check yourself and check your eligibility,(Faith, Knowledge Etc) before you seek a position. Don't use Kerala politics style crookedness to get a position.Work for God, Work for Parish.If lot of parish members against you, resign and work for the parish as a member.

Character of a person is intimately associated with the family pedigree. Experience here and back home has time and again shown that people who come from illustrated families show that in their behavior. Unfortunately the problem with this community is that most you do not come from families like that. When you come from families of bullock cart owners and last grade personnel’s it is only natural that the typical behavior gets repeated be it Saji Achen or others. Just remember that nobility is not acquired, it is inherited.

Hello poster #37,

You said it very well. Now only if the bishops, priests, and those bad apples in the community would read your post, understand it, and behave properly.

Let me add a couple of notes:

When giving to church, give only enough to support the church.
When giving to priests, give only a small the same amount they are allowed to take (as it is in Kerala).

Thank you.

Dear George (post #39),

The word "Nobile" has many meanings.
It has the meaning you mentioned. But it also means, possessing eminence, elevation, dignity, above whatever is low, mean, degrading, or dishonorable, etc.

Based on your argument alone, former president of India is not a noble man because he was born in a low caste; good flowers cannot bloom in the wild. Would you also say that milk from a poor man's cow is bad milk?
I have friends, decent and noble friends. One was born to a blacksmith, grew up without lunch or dinner on some days.

My fiend, nobility is in the heart. It is not in your family name.

This person George is hurting a lot of people. Is your wife same character as you are? Otherwise she must be suffering a lot too because of your attitude. It is very hard to live with an arrogant person even when it is directed towards others.

Jesus chose to come to this world as the son of a carpenter. If all the people born in so called "good families" were good then poor people would not have been exploited.

Learning to read and write English or passing exams in medical science or any other field does not make anyone a better person. Did you study anywhere how not to ignore reality or why it is important to fight injustice bravely?

This is in response to Post # 41. There is a saying that exception ALWAYS proves the statement. Coming to the former president of India, he was there not entirely because of his caliber but mainly because of the quota system. Once even a high official at the dioceses of Chicago mentioned to me, that the problems we see in our churches are due to the semi-illusioned, poorly educated men trying to gain social recognition (mostly husbands of health care workers who are often neglected and subjugated at home) at the church. The general lack of quality and decency in the community, because of social upbringing is a reality my friend and it even reflects in the quality of the clergy that are coming now. Bullock cart owners, last grade servants and tea shop owners have their own culture in their family. A ticket to US and a used Lexus do not bring attitude change, be it Saji Achen or anyone else. Tell me my friend why the well educated professionals keep away from this crowd??

Hello Bishop Jacob (and "Bishop george",)
Please retire. But don't worry we got a replacement for you. Poster #39 and #44 ."Bishop george".

He thinks he is the only one capable of becoming Bishop. He is having "some degree" and " family culture".

I am partially agree with Mr. George (#39).But I don't know There are lot of families like that in our community.I understand his Anger.Good family background is very important.Even if the Family background is not that great Education can make a person's character better. I see lot of examples in our community. But if you don't have both(above mentioned) and no strong faith in God, but have lot of $$$$$$$$ and that person seeking Positions or attention in our community then we will have problem......I see this problem in our malayalee community in America.( Not only in SMC )STRONG FAITH IN GOD THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT IF YOU SEEK POSITIONS IN THE CHURCH.Let us realize our weaknesses Pray to God for become a Good person for the Family and community.May the mighty God give you the wisdom to understand what is right and what is wrong.Let us be a good model for our kids and community.Have a nice day.

Dear George,

You cannot command nobility or respect. It is something that has to be earned. It applies to everybody irrespective of age, position. So dont show off your filthy attittude in this circle. If you still think you cannot get along in this group, then stick with your ABCD kids or your saipu friends.
Yes, i am also from a noble & well educated family. But definitely different from yours- we have something called GUTS to speak up our opinion, we're not asskissers for personal benefits, and have the brain to differenciate what's right and wrong. Also keep in mind, based on recent experiences Bishops and priests need not be right all the time.

After all our great great forefathers were either Adam/Eve or Monkeys. Im not sure
whether you sprouted from some unknown entity.

Dear George (post #44),

First of all, I am not sure who you are referring to by "this crowd" or your definition of "well educated".

Dear friend, what is the difference between you and the people you keep away from? Is it really the books you have memorized? Is it the exams you passed? Is it the amount of money you have in your bank account?

Education is not just for the brain. Is is for the soul too. If earning a degree or two makes you think you are superior to your fellow human beings, then your education degraded you instead of improving you.

Education makes people more humble, except people of vanity.

Not having a degree doesn't make anyone less human.

If your coat makes you despise others, lose your coat.

If your education makes you despise others, go teach the under priviledged.

If your money makes you despise others, go volunteer at a soup kitchen.

If your good health makes you despise others, go volunteer at a hospital.

If your family name makes you despise others, go eat dinner with them.

Because we are all God's children.

Dear friend. People like you are the curse of this community. Please don't spread lies and rumours. Before you publish this type nonsense, please investigate about who is the incharge of all purchases at Garland Church and how it is working. Please leave the Garland people alone. We are like a family, praying together and we have a very peaceful atmosphere. You have too much work to do at your place and please work on it. Don't mess with Garland.

The difference between this garland nobles and Koppelites is
1.'Koppelites are more technologically advanced'. we use blogs instead of OOMAKKATHu
2. what is left in Garland is a bunch of 'pallu poya kilavanmar'

My wife always complaining my name is printed only on our wedding invitation and on
our check book since I married her ten years ago. Last year I decided to run for the
parish council election and won (only a handful of people participated in the unit meeting
and as we planned my friend proposed my name). Now my NAME & PICTURE is on our church web
site and also my name printed on church bulletin (thanks acha). My wife and kids are
very very happy and proud of me and she told me I have to buy a suit. My wife advised me if
I keep quiet during the parish council meeting, achan will nominate me as next kaikkaran
(one of my dream since we moved from Middle East few years ago). But the sad thing is last
week I had an argument with my wife and she called me “MOOKKILLA RAJYATHU MURIMOOKKAN RAJAVU”,
like parish council/pothuyogam meeting I kept quiet. MAUNAM VIDUVANU BHUSHANAM !
Thanks
