“If only Anglican priests were allowed to marry, this wouldn’t have happened”
Interesting reaction. So, you’re now relieved that your gay priests are in good company? ....or just busting Anglican chops because you think that somehow rank-and-file Anglicans got some pleasure seeing Catholic gay priests get caught molesting boys - because it made them somehow better than you?
You’re a sick pup.
I would say post two made an astute observation. One worth thinking about.

I think some sarcasm was missed? Anglican priests can marry. All of mine were. Locally, over the years many types of asosrted minsters have been busted.
It seems to be more a matter of access to children than to frustration.
That's beside the point.
My post was intended as sarcasm directed towards those who invariable attribute the homosexual predations of Catholic priests to the practice of celibacy in the Latin Rite. They pop up whenever there is a news article about some priest getting caught.
No offense at all was intended towards Anglicans, just towards ignorant liberal Catholics and other misinformed posters. Other informed Catholics would have spotted the sarcasm right off the bat and understood the post, so I confess to the sin of posting somewhat of an inside joke. And to being a sick puppy, LOL!
Sorry if you are so blinded that you can’t see the truth. One of the DBM’s memes is that the Catholic sex scandal wss a result of celibacy driving solid men away. It’s clear that the root of (both) scandals is a lack of discipline and the freeing of normal constraints in the 1960s.
The three companies that insure the majority of Protestant churches in America say they typically receive upward of 260 reports each year of young people under 18 being sexually abused by clergy, church staff, volunteers or congregation members.
The figures released to The Associated Press offer a glimpse into what has long been an extremely difficult phenomenon to pin down — the frequency of sex abuse in Protestant congregations.
