Saint Damian, titled a Father of the Church (11th century) also was a man well-known for abhorring sodomy, and wrote "The Book of Gomorrah" about abominations committed by unchaste clergy. Somewhat in the news lately.

Those two don’t look to be too well versed in 11th century church history. It was the pop culture Damian.
