To: Antoninus; ebb tide
There are a wide variety of attributions of this attitude to the Church Fathers, but this homily by Chrysostom was the only really hard core one that checked out when I did some research of my own years ago.
However, the more “moderate” things, while not as colourful, would suffice to give clerics pause.
Thanks for posting

Exactly. One would think that any bishop who read Chyrsostom's homily would give a shudder -- that's assuming that they believe in God at all.
