[litojonny]

[PInk77W1]

[teamsteed1]

team Grant Desme!

[orwellwasrite]

What a babe!

[estreral]

Grant, I will always include you in my prayer for your quest in serving Jesus in the least member of society. God bless you and your family.

Although this hurt because because he is so good i do wish the guy the best.

[MCKruds]

selfish to his team

[JCSCougar]

Worst mistake of his life. Baseball is bigger than religion because there are people who help out the needy like Roberto Clemente did.

You don't need to be a priest and do that. Just send money, food, medical supplies to poor countries like Haiti. Then people will know how grateful and noble you are.

He could've killed 2 birds with 1 stone.

[Apollo5600]

@JCSCougar Yeah, because giving money to people solves everything and makes you noble. You're a fool.

[PInk77W1]

@JCSCougar you seem ignorant about what a catholic priest does. there are heroic priest stories for the last 2000yrs. Roberto Clemente was awesome no doubt, but so are priest

BIRThConTROLisSINFuL = Bigot

[PInk77W1]

@UclaBruins22x birth control is sinful, because it takes the awesome power of creation and makes it into a lust for pleasure only. LIke eating a very expensive steak and then throwing up on purpose, and telling your dinner guest, i just like the taste, i dont want the calories. Except birth control is a million times worse

[RockyBalboa211]

A very unselfish thing..a noble thing.. God bless him in his studies.

[Advakate]

what an idiot

[esoypinoyable]

God chooses the best and only the best! Godspeed, Grant!

[cclarklawrg09]

I remember the Gospel about the rich young man who left Jesus when Our Lord God invited him to sell all his riches and give it to the poor and then to follow Him. But what you did is so great that you proved to the whole world that money worldly wealth and pleasures are not everthing in life. That means that our God is the One, is everything and nothing else. Praise Be to God!

[cclarklawrg09]

I really praise God for your very brightest decision ever in your life! Indeed it has moved me in spirit. I Believe you are in full spirit when you decided that and you confirmed that it made you more happy now. Go on and proclaim the Gospel!

[trojanspaghetti]

yeah an yer still dizzy from gettin hit by it

[trojanspaghetti]

i think it isso cool that even though his parents gave him a dog's name- he aint named after a saint

his soul could still command withi in him to follow the Holy Spirit

[interneti]

He gave up women and money...WHAT AN IDIOT.

[xtrashed]

Some of these comments are disgusting. I fear what is going through your head when you write such things. I bet you'd never say those disgusting insults in real life though, would you? You like the anonymity of hiding behind your screen.

Good luck to you Grant!!

[trojanspaghetti]

'xactly

[rdloco]

why dont all of you douches bags respect his decision? it's his life if he's giving all up to become a priest hey!! good luck to him!!!

[Solowizard]

This is what happens when you're brainwashed into believing that the way to get closer to God is through mortal man and his bull shit ass business called religion.

It reminds me of a guy I personally know who had a platinum opportunity (a done deal) to play ball in the NBA, but took a pass, because his girlfriend revealed to him that she was pregnant. He said he needed to get a regular job so that he could take care of his family.

Where the HELL is the logic!!

[interneti]

Link or I call BS. You would have to get drafted for that to happen. Was he a top high school prospect or something? If so, it doesn't mean anything.

[Solowizard]

interneti,

Link?

NEWS FLASH!

There's no video of every damn thing that's happening in life. Geez!  link.

The stupid ass I'm talking about never even showed up to hear his name being called. What an embarrassment. He's estranged from certain members of his own family and I don't blame them.

[xart23x]

call me a cynic, but i think he's doing it cuz he's GAY...he can't see himself living a life on the road trying to hide his GAYness, so he's gonna live ythe holy life so no one finds it suspicious that he doesn't have a girlfriend

[Catholicdadof4]

You have no idea how God's grace can carry someone thru life. You are of the secular world and do not understand these things. For you accuse him of being gay because he has a calling to the priesthood shows your ignorance.

[RockyBalboa211]

Grant Desme to me personally is an unselfish and noble person. To leave money, and pleasures of the world, so that you can help the poor and those who live in doubt and sadness.. just amazing. I will always admire him.

[Solowizard]

xart23x,

NO GIRLFRIEND?

And he wants to become a priest?

Hide the children!!!!!!!

[P3ck3rh3ad]

This guy sounds very intelligent. God bless that silver tongue of his, and stop him from using it to lap up little boys' privates.

[xtrashed]

That is disgusting! You should be ashamed of yourself for writing such trash!

[Islam4noone]

Thank you Lord for safeguarding your sons and daughters, thank you for raising saints among us, please touch everyone's heart to answer your call in the same way you touched Desme's heart.
