What will the church do about the priest I happened to see on CNN, who said that since the population consists of 10% homosexuals that we might safely assume that 10% of priests are homosexual and that the Catholic church does not consider homosex a sin?

This was a couple of weeks ago and my gaydar was pinging the whole time he was talking.

I know that he was obviously lying through his teeth but can the church not at least stifle him?

What do you want the Church to do?

The Church states clearly that when someone says theyre Catholic and when they are Catholic by virtue of having received the sacraments which always include proper instruction that if that Catholic dies without having repented of grave sin they are going to hell. That they are not put there by God but that they choose it. And its forever

Either we are thinking people and can discern that we will never ever get our catholic teaching from anyone on cnn or we are stupid and need spoonfeeding from the Chrurch, most of which we spit out anyway

The pope reiterated today that the church’s position on homosexual behavior regardless of its origin and revalence is wrong It says this with the intent of bringing troubled homosexual people into union with the
Church

Anyone calling hoimself a priest who is not in keeping with the teachings of the Church is a liar and there is a lot of trouble ahead

Anyone who is a priest is educated highly enough to know how to do research necessary to realize there is an incidence of about 3 percent and that this has been so for ever. If it is growing then weustnlook at the pish aming young eople in public school and in pop culture and parents need to watch out

The Church is not in the business of worldly punishment, itdoes not support this cnn priest. Hes in for a world of trouble. And people need to think
