Homosexual Behavior On the Decline, Says Vatican

Homosexual Behavior On the Decline, Says Vatican.jpg

Oh this is rich. A Vatican office reports that U.S. Roman Catholic seminaries are seeing "improvements in halting what they call 'homosexual behavior' among students." Many Catholics have blamed sinful homosexual clergy members for the sex abuse scandal that rocked the church over the last few years. Which? True. Seeing as how many of the church's victims were/are boys, that would make sense. But, as experts point out, "gays are no more likely than others to molest children."

But surely a closet case who spends a lifetime repressing his urges and joins the priesthood, ostensibly to avoid acting on urges that he truly believes are sinful, evil, damnable is more likely than a well-adjusted queer to develop whatever degree of f*cked-in-the-headedness one needs in order abuse and victimize children?

I think they mean no more/ less GAY Priests molesting young boys, they should pat themselves on the back

I think they mean no more GAY Priests molesting kids

Umm ... how are seminary enrollment numbers going these days anyway? Is "how to terrorize gays" a class in seminary?
