"Well... this ought to make a few liberal Catholic priests start squirming in their vestments."

Yeah, like all of the priests who raped little boys for decades while the church covered it up. I'm thinking there's a special place in hell for them.

Please consider the fact that years ago,around the turn of the century modernists,liberals,communists,marxists,progressives,call them whatever you like,came to the recognition that in order for "man" to be god,God and His Church needed to be destroyed.

The desire to be gods has long captivated man but prior to this century the attempts to destroy the Catholic Church were usually initiated and fought from outside. This wasn't working so the plan was to infiltrate the Church and destroy it from within.

One of the prongs of the attack was to infiltrate it with men who were committed to their program or could be easily influenced. Men with weaknesses were recruited to the ranks of the clergy and homosexuals with their particular weakness were prime candidates. The Church is now living with the results of this programmed plan to destroy it.

It's costing lots of money and caused many good and decent people to lose heart as well as their faith but I think the tide is turning,at least I hope it is. Many people,myself included are convinced that if Catholicism is destroyed,all of Christianity will soon follow in America and Europe and western civilization will be dead forever. This would be truly tragic.

While there is nothing wrong with pointing out the sins and crimes that homosexual priests have perpetrated on young men and in some cases young boys,at this point it would probably be wiser and more fruitful to look at why and to work toward addressing the core issues and foundational cracks and repair them instead.

Time to identify the enemy and fight them rather that divide ourselves with meaningless accusations and smarmy swipes. As you so rightly stated "there's a special place in Hell for them,I agree and so we must move on and fight the enemy,here and now,rather than each other.

Yes some priests made mistakes and made selfish choice that were only self-fulfilling. But please don't bash the entire Catholic church because of them.

Here's a quote for you:
"The walls of hell are lined with the skulls of bishops."
Saint John of the Cross
