Whenever you hear about a Christian, especially a minister, embracing sin or a sinful life style, you can just bet there is some hidden sin in their life they are trying to justify.

Bishop Fulton Sheen had a story of a young priest that he met that was railing about the riches of the Church and how the Church had too much money. Sheen looked him in the eyes and said, "How much did you steal?" The young priest's face went white, and he stammered, "What did you say?" Sheen went on, "How much have you been stealing from the collection plates?" The man broke down and admitted the whole thing, that he had been stealing from the parish coffers for years.
