[ThomasMore]

The issue is that Church leaders have too long kept their heads in the sand and hoped the problem would go away

They also haven't faced the REAL problem.

Homosexuality in the priesthood. The last five years has been an eyeopener for me. The church needs to clean house of active homosexuals.

[wideawake]

Canon law requires that candidates for the priesthood be "sound in mind and body".

Homosexuality is, according to the Church's moral teaching "intrinsically disordered".

Homosexuality is a mental/emotional defect that cannot be tolerated in an ordinand.
