Jack...I dont know if there are so many homosexuals in the Church of England priesthood, as they do not have the celibacy rule.
can you produce any figures on that?

It is pretty well accepted that the CR encourages homosexuals into the RC priesthood, where their single status can be disguised as celibacy, in many...not all, cases.

Also the mix of "married with children" priests with those who are homosexual, would make the concealment of any crimes of abuse more difficult, leading to less abuse.
