One could argue celibacy has helped spawn the homosexuality.pedophilia rampant in the priesthood and history shows many a pope,bishope and priest had concubines even as they hypocritically clocked themselves as GOD'S VOICE to the common man

One could argue that the moon is made of greencheese but one would be wrong if one said that. The pope is Christ's Vicar on Earth, sinful or not. Get over it! Always sinful, never fallible under the conditions stated by Vatican I in the mid-nineteenth century.

One could also argue that babies come from the cabbage patch or that the moon is made of green cheese. The fact is that pedophilia is just as rampant among married protestant ministers, teachers, coaches, and any other group that works with children. The media focuses on Catholic priests because they use the scandal to tear down an entire institution which they have a visceral hatred for. Stop helping them.
