Exactly how does a person prove they are not homosexual if a deliberately false “outing” occurs. How do you protect against malicious false accusations? Once a slanderous statement is out there, it’s impossible to retract from public consciousness.
Is it just me, or does no one think these things through before leaping on the bandwagon?
It would seem to me that before you accuse someone of being a homosexual that you would have to have evidence or proof. If you accuse someone of being a homosexual and do not have the proof, you can be sued for slander. There is an axiom: he who asserts must prove. Anyone can accuse anyone of anything, but if you do, you better be able to prove it. If a priest is a homosexual but does not practice it, there is no way to prove that he is a homosexual. It is only “active” homosexuals that are open to exposure. If a priest or bishop is an active homosexual, they need to go.
