You don’t have to be a believer to say amen to Wanganui Catholic priest David Bell’s opposition to community leaders’ plans to hound paroled sex offender Stewart Murray Wilson out of town.
Mayor Annette Main’s call to shun him was not a message Christians could adopt, said Monsignor Bell, adding that those who are threatening his life are really lowering themselves “to the same level as the person we are dealing with, Mr Wilson himself”.
