Dropping celibacy will take care of the problem? Great.

Oh how I wish Scout leaders, Hollywood entertainers, pop music recording artists, public school teachers and athletic coaches were allowed to get married!

Cardinal Pell may have been framed; in his case — contrary to many others — the charges may be fake.

I realize that people besides priests engage in unlawful sexual behavior. However, because of the limited number of people who are willing to choose priesthood, and the elimination from consideration of women, the Church is anxious to hold on to anyone willing to do the job. In other fields, there is much less reluctance to fire the culprit, except if they are very rich and powerful, and even they have to watch their step these days.
