A Catholic priest has stirred controversy after delivering a blunt sermon in which he accused his parishioners of acting 'entitled' and making unreasonable demands.
The clergyman, whose identity has not been disclosed, reportedly told his congregation they were behaving like 'spoiled children' who expected the church to cater to their every whim.
'You're Not Customers' - Priest's Harsh Words
During the fiery address, the priest allegedly said: 'This isn't a restaurant where you can order whatever you want. You're not customers - you're part of a spiritual community.'
Worshippers were said to be shocked by the direct criticism, with some walking out mid-service. Others reportedly applauded the priest's honesty.
Mixed Reactions From the Congregation
One parishioner, who wished to remain anonymous, told reporters: 'It was like being scolded by a headmaster. I've never heard anything like it in church before.'
However, another member of the congregation defended the priest: 'Sometimes the truth hurts. We've become too comfortable demanding things from our priests without giving anything back.'
Church Officials Remain Silent
Diocese officials have declined to comment on the incident, leaving many to wonder if the priest will face any disciplinary action for his unconventional approach.
The controversy has sparked debate among religious communities about the balance between pastoral care and challenging congregation members in their faith journey.
