If the Pope wants to clean up this mess, he will have to issue a proclamation:

"Homosexuality is Sin. The Bible calls it such; and it is not compatible with the priesthood - period. Any member of the priesthood who is Homosexual must resign immediately or face expulsion and excommunication. This includes any Homosexual who is celibate, or not."

[Notwithstanding]

The Catechism issued by this pope (in 1994 I think) clearly states that homosexual sex is "evil".

Wanting to engage in an evil type of sex is like wanting the Lexus or Hummer that pulls up next to us at the stoplight. Both are condemned by the Bible as evil.

Any pastor who ever lusts inside after a buxom woman needs to be excommunicated? Oh please. If that is the standard then no denomination would have any pastors.

This includes any Homosexual who is celibate, or not."

If a homosexual is celibate, how would you know?

[Antoninus]

Doesn't the old Baltimore Catechism call 'the sin of Sodom' one that 'cries out to Heaven for vengeance?' Whatever happened to that?
