I would assume that besides just finding priest life to be comforting, its seems that it's mostly gays who are compasionate enough to dedicate their life to God's work.

Also, a common misconception is the idea that these church pedophiles are homosexual. This is demonstrably wrong. The VAST majority of pedophiles have been demonstrated to be completely heterosexual in all other activities.

Well we know where God stands on this issue, about these perverts.

Sounds to me like the Church should put the Boy Scouts in charge of their recruitment operations!

``The atmosphere of seminaries is so gay that the few heterosexuals entering the seminary feel the culture and environment of the seminary is alienating,'' the Rev. Richard McBrien..said..

Richard McBrien actually said something rational? Or maybe it's a different McBrien...

I've got to get my eyes checked, I could have sworn it said-

Demmocrats Show Gay Priest Concerns

I figured they would be protesting that there were not enough of them !

Medeiros lamented that some of the men he rejected for the priesthood in Massachusetts had been accepted in seminaries elsewhere. The cardinal said he was working with U.S. bishops to ensure seminaries nationwide were aware of the problem.

This was over 20 years ago. If only they had made the scandal public then, we would have been 20 years farther down the road to recovery, rather than starting from scratch right now. Keeping the problem secret only made it worse.

It seems very clear that homosexuals will continue to attempt to infiltrate the seminaries and we must be forever vigilant to weed them out and make sure they can't get into another one somewhere. May the Lord send us shepherds who are virtuous and strong!
