Michael Voris is scheduled to speak at the Best Western Genetti Hotel and Conference Center in Wilkes-Barre at 6:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

His talk, \u201cLiving Catholicism Radically,\u201d was canceled after the university and diocese determined that he had expressed views at odds with their values in Internet television shows he produces about Catholic issues.<\/p>\n

In a letter to the talk\u2019s organizers, Paul and Kristen Ciaccia of Harveys Lake, the diocese further explained that it learned from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and Mr. Voris\u2019 home Archdiocese of Detroit that Mr. Voris\u2019 presentations have caused \u201ca number of controversies\u201d and that his programs are not endorsed by his home archdiocese.<\/p>\n

The Ciaccias said in a news release that they chose to reschedule Mr. Voris at a secular site and invited Bishop Joseph Bambera to attend the event \u201cto evaluate Mr. Voris\u2019 knowledge of the faith, free from opinions formed by others.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Ciaccias called the banning of Mr. Voris from diocesan property \u201cinsensitive\u201d and said it \u201cbelies deeper inconsistencies in diocesan policy.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
