Ann Coulter: Should gay priests adopt?

World Net Daily ^ | 03/20/2002 | Ann Coulter

[spindoctor]

Homosexual priests, who are serious about their vocation, should be required to submit to psychological counseling to overcome their deviant desires. In fact, this scandal can be an opportunity for the Church to provide ample evidence demonstrating that homosexuality is a mental illness that can be cured.

Since the candidate for Holy Orders is a man who is in the state of grace, and active homosexuals are not, isn't an actively homosexual priest an oxymoron? They don't need 'defrocking' because they weren't legitimately 'frocked!' This is another liberal Church result, just as the majority of Catholic Massachusetts Catholics are Democratic. If they are truly Catholic, they have to be against abortion and can't believe in the abortion, any time all the time, Democrat Party!

…is that sodomites cause sodomy…If they had succeeded in turning the Boy Scouts into a gay-rights re-education camp, we'd be reading that camping causes sodomy now.

Thanks for the reality check Ann.

Your gut feeling is pure speculation and very hurtful to good,caring priests dedicated to saving souls in the past as well as currently.

I would not have commented but for your conclusion that priests should be allowed to marry.Many people knew that when they finally decided to go with the "pedophile priest" scandal they were hoping to mask all the chickenhawks (homosexuals who like young blood)and keep them in their positions,only using the victims to puff up the "pedophile" statistics. Unfortunately,people started to catch on so now they are putting plan B into effect.Plan B:let priests marry,ordain women. If you care about the Church don't fall into promoting the plan of the enemy..

Note to the liberal press

Amen!

You are on the money!

At least we finally have The New York Times on record opposing sexual activity between men and boys. Evidently the only men the Times thinks should not be fondling teen-agers are those who purport to believe in God.

One of the best articles she's ever written.

[oremus]

BINGO! This is exactly what I was thinking and saying. There ARE some people who think for themselves afterall.

[oremus]

I think you're right, and I believe I read somewhere that Ratzinger or someone from the Vatican said that their ordination *may* (depending on each individual case) be invalid - null and void - as in the case of a marriage which is annulled - it is determined that there was no marriage to begin with, no Sacrament took effect.

One of the best articles she's ever written.

Agreed.

Highest truth-to-word ratio I've come across in a long time. This article ought to be used as a case study in writing classes.

In short: iron on target.

BTTT

[L.N. Smithee]

Another Coulter classic!

[alloysteel]

Our Ann skewers the NYT (again), does it using their own definitions, and doesn't even begin to rise to the level of a rant. That lady is just 2 kewl.

[katherineisgreat]

pokey please add me as well!

BTTT for ANN!

[GOPsheree]

This is the Lady I want to be in my next life, if there is such a thing. More conservative women who are strong in their convictions should be outspoken like Ann. God knows we have too many liberal Ann's--if you catch my drift? I think her opinions are what all these men are attracted to, not the fact that she is as skinny as a toothpick.
