Closeted homos.

This does help explain the Catholic Church turning a blind eye to all the child molestation and protecting their own from accountability/ justice for victims.

I knew an ex Catholic Priest who years ago said much the same thing. He said the problem of homosexuals in the Catholic Church was even more acute in the American Church and the Seminary than in Europe (Rome) which was an open secret. I remember him saying McCarrick was more of a norm in the Church than celibate straight guys....in fact the straight guys were marginalized and pushed to the periphery.

This morning on the news, they were interviewing people waiting in the line to view the pope. The reporter asked "what would you like to see in the new pope." The lady responded with some pleasantries, and then added "and fix the stuff with kids." lol

Even people willing to line up to see a dead body like it's a new roller coaster at Disney World knows that "celibate" dudes is an impossible task, and weird that they stick with it.

Well, no shite. Execs in this religion have been covering up the pedophelia for decades. This shouldn't surprise anyone that pays attention.

PS - I'm pro gay marriage. Being gay isn't a sin, but the grooming/sexually assaulting the alter boys definitely is.

If you are a Catholic and you are Gay, you are supposed to seek God's grace and mercy as you bear this heavy burden of never acting on your sexual desires for same sex people.

I cannot imagine what a heavy burden this must be.


No more a burden than a straight man being loyal to one wife, or someone prone to drink not being an alcoholic.

Sin is sin. Temptation is temptation. We all fall short and need forgiveness.

But those who justify, deny or excuse sin are in outright, non-repentant rebellion.

Unfortunately, no. The college of Cardinals is a huge gay cabal. The few cardinals out in the field who are at constant odds with the Vatican are at odds for this very reason.

Torfs went on to say that the percentage of gay cardinals was only eclipsed by the percentage at Texas A&M.

A few gay men at the local seminary doesn’t mean that the vast majority of senior leadership throughout the Church (cardinals) is mostly gay men.


How the hell could they all not be gay? They want to never have sex again with a woman, be in a relationship with a woman and rather live with men.

They molest little boys and the ones that don’t try to hide the ones that do.

true, but men who have attraction to other men have no business being priests. It’s a disordered attraction.

Charitable. Sound. True, And doesn’t make one sin more heinous than another nor deny personal accountability and the ubiquitousness of sin among us all.

And yet you get downvoted,

If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.

If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.

But all these things they will do to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me.

Crazy to hear this. I grew up with 2 boys that went to be a priest. They are kin to my wife's side. Also knew the local priest well that married my wife and I. Another much older priest in the area I grew up in from 60s. All 4 were gay. The priest that married us died of AIDS. The other 2 when visiting back home to southern LA makes a bee-line to Bourbon Street to party. They even had family members drop them off-pick them up in the ghey bar sceen ares. The oldest one had his name listed in the arch diocese list of bad priest that got caught. I hate to admit that many cardinals could be ghey but just the sample size I know looks bad.
