I never at any time said that there was a link between "celibacy" and "homosexuality".....exactly the opposite IMO

It is a well documented fact that there are large numbers of homosexuals in the priesthood, studies range from 15% to 50%...a figure of around 30% is generally recognised as being accurate.

It has been explained to me here that this situation had been allowed to continue for purely economic reasons, as it is cheaper to employ a single man than a married man with a wife and family.

What you have written regarding the weakening of the church, bears out all I have been saying about the real agenda of you "liberals"
