I agree with you. There are a lot of great, celebate priests out there, but the celebacy rule certainly encourages sexual deviants who want to remain in the closet to apply. If you know you will never get married, and you become a priest, you have an excuse. Certainly doesn’t apply to all or even most priests, but I get what you are saying.
The celibacy rule does not encourage sexual deviants, improper discernment and lax seminaries do. To say that lack of sexual activity will cause men (or women) to homosexually prey on teens and children is an absurdity.
If that was the case then any man hitting a dry patch in his marriage should not be let into middle schools and elementary schools. It is a very asinine argument.
