An Irish Catholic priest who mistakenly flashed gay porn during a Power Point presentation for appalled parents and at least one child on the sacrament of Holy Communion has quit. Father Martin McVeigh, who shut off his computer and rushed from the room when the incident occurred, initially blamed unidentified other people who also had access to the computer. McVeigh yesterday apologized "for the hurt caused," and for "his failure to check his presentation in advance." But he still insists he "was not responsible for the offending images, and in this respect I ask you to accept my innocence." He's leaving his parish on an open-ended sabbatical, reports CNN.
