	Priest Forbidden to Go on Web, Radio Chicago Tribune March 10, 2006 http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chicago/chi-0603100279 mar10,1,1279600.story?coll=chi-newslocalchicago-hed ST. PAUL -- The archbishop of Minneapolis and St. Paul ordered a prominent conservative priest to stop posting his sermons on the Web and broadcasting them on Roman Catholic radio. Rev. Robert Altier of St. Agnes Church has spoken against a sex-abuse prevention program taught in the archdiocese, including to schoolchildren. Such programs were required by U.S. bishops in response to cases of sex abuse by clergy, but some critics say they are too explicit and infringe on parents' role in teaching their children about sex, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported. Altier posted a message on his "A Voice in the Desert" Web site saying he would no longer post his homilies and presentations or broadcast them, in response to a written request from Archbishop Harry Flynn.
