Of course, all of those priests molesting children were supposed to be
celibate. I think from a legal point of view, the Catholic Church can't take
the chance that their celibates are truly celibate.

When a Catholic priest at the Vatican announced that he is gay last week, I
thought he was a fool, considering that he was wearing the black clothes worn
by Christian renunciates and that he'd gone through much training and education
to be in his position. But today I just realized that his announcement was an
act of defiance of the Church teachings. Thus, the opening of the Synod began
with a loud bang.
Do you think gay priests, from any denomination, should be allowed to lead a
religious community?
Of course. Being gay doesn't necessarily mean you aren't celebate. It just
means you'd pick someone of your own sex over another gender if the opportunity
for sex came up. Since Catholic priests are supposed to be celebate I think it
is moot which gender they would prefer if it came right down to it. (smile)
