Usually they are referred to as Priests. The problem is that the Catholic Church has moved so far to the left with the New World Order and the Novus Ordo Gathering on sunday, they are more Protestant or Lutheran than Catholics! SO I guess Reverend would be acceptable.
My uncle passed this week, and the "Priest"???/Reverand, had an Ear ring in his LEFT ear. From what I ahve been able to learn -- Left is RIGHT (Hetrosexual) and Right is WRONG (Homosexual). My question is why is it necessary for a Catholic?? Priest?? Reverand?? who is sworn to Celebicy, need to advertise his sexualality/sexual preference??

All that left, right = hom or hetero is old school and/or an urban legend. My guess is the priest is trying to be hip and appeal to the younger generation and/or he was/is a hipster kid with a deep faith who became a priest and kept the jewelry. To the younger generation men with an earing or earings is very common and accepted and doesn't neccesarily indicate sexual preference or radical rebellion.
Besides a priest doesn't have much he can do to his attire that makes it personal/individual.
For the earing thing.. that was eighties culture.... It doesn't matter anymore...
