As this is an attraction in the physical sense, yes. Part of the definition of attraction is something take evokes pleasure, which is what physical attraction is. So in this context yes, yes it is.


Who said anything about this attraction being strictly physical?

It seems like you’re trying to force the words to mean the same thing by stripping the word “attraction” of its actual meaning applying some context that you yourself made up.

I agree that lust is a sin whether it’s same sex or not but being attracted to someone isn’t lustful.

Lol. This probably came from a gay college professor who is living in a fantasy world and trying to wish this into existence. What credibility does this moron have?


.....or maybe the reason why he knows they're gay IS because he's also gay.

There is an “undercover” documentary I watched many years ago I forget the name if someone could link it) and it basically paints the Vatican as allowing but turning a blind eye to the predatory homosexual clergy that roam its halls .


Louisiana has turned a blind eye to the Catholic Church being the primary source of cocaine/narcotics in Louisiana during the 80’s. Brother Jeffrey at St. Paul’s High School in Covington openly traded drugs for sex with teen boys. The Catholic Church controls our health insurance and healthcare. It is the de facto good old boy network in Louisiana.

Do you mean New Orleans BAPTIST Theological Seminary? Because that has nothing to do with priesthood. A lot of those guys are already married, and it's a coed school. What other seminary is in New Orleans?


The one specifically for Catholic priests.

Correct in that this has resulted in less gays entering the priesthood, it is not the sole cause of the shortage of priests, while true, low birthrates, and spiritual decline across the world, are all contributing factors.

If the number of married deacons is any indication, there would not be a shortage of priests if they were allowed to be married. Can any of you say why priests are no longer allowed to be married as they once were, many years ago?

I’m going to write my Archbishop and see if they can vote Trump as the new pope so we can have a real supreme leader man-god.

Who are you to judge? Most don’t practice any sexuality. Out of 400,000 +. Preists, people only hear about the few bad/isolated issues.

Latin Rite or Eastern Rite - they are still Catholic. What's your point, exactly? And what do you mean, "One of the other 23 will be in full communion with the Catholic Church"? They would all be in communion with the Catholic Church. They comprise the4 Catholic Church along with the Latin Rite.

Can you expound on this just a bit? Are you saying that the Orthodox has the same issues with priests diddling kids like the Catholic Church does? Link? There may be a couple of isolated instances but I would be interested in seeing the info you seem to have that it is as widespread in Orthodoxy as it is in the Catholic Church and also a link about bishops in various dioceses just covering it up.

Also, please tell us some more about all this violence against women that is accepted. Where? In the Catholic Church? The Orthodox Church? Both? Link please?
