If you went to Catholic school/mass as much as I did surely you noticed: A lot of priests are repressed gays.

Anyone that loves poon wouldn’t become a priest.

Maybe they were fondled by priests as children too. But the cycle had to start somewhere.

Because they are homosexual pedophiles.

It's more of a sin. Seriously, the allure to them is to do something wrong and they go all out.

So it’s a coincidence all these priest were born this way?

I think not.

My theory is that the priesthood has always attracted gay men because it is a job that is respectable and they don't have to constantly answer questions about why they don't marry. The sometimes theatrical aura of ceremony clinches it.

hello.... because its alter BOYS, not girls

its a simple matter of opportunity and close proximity

that, plus having a strong hetero sex drive precludes the idea of never having sex with women as something you want to sign up for

Two thoughts come to mind.

1. Some of these priests chose that life in part due to a conflict between their faith and personal sexual preference. They had this conflict since an early age and decided to double down on their religion by becoming a priest and becoming celibate.

2. Ease of access.

Right. Although not there are altar girls as well.

But for a very long time it was only boys

A lot of priests are gays that can't come out because their families are Catholic and would ostracize them if they did.

ETA: and it's not like they can just go to a bar and pick up a random dude to bone, especially in smaller cities and towns almost everyone would know who the priest is. Can't try to put a move on another priest, because what if he's straight? So, they have access to altar servers, and they choose the boys because they are gay.

Gay conspiracy, they hate that homosexuality is condemned by the Church, so you get 50 of your 6 million gay population to be priests and destroy from within.

I disagree, there are tons of girls that are altar servers.

I mean, what's not to like? You get to dress up in ornate garments, display your penchant for being dramatic, gossip with old women?

Alter Boy - Easy to control. Parents have always taught them that the church is sacred.

Alter Girl - Doesn't exist, plus they would pop the cherry and have to deal with all that mess
