So be it.
It can't do as much damage to the church as continuing to ignore the problem of priests abusing their position, and their people. Crack down on all of them, homo and hetero alike.
This is a primary reason why I am of the protestant persuasion. I personally have been involved in the explusion of two pastors from their position for sexual offenses. One homo and one hetero. We were able to ensure that both of them got help, and that neither of them returned to such a sensitive position again.
Darn right.
That which harbours evil is just as bad or worse.
Until the Catholic Church actively promotes a purge of such evil I won't be willing to expose my children to it.
As a Christian I made a commitment for my children to the Catholic Church on behalf of my wife. We both agreed however that vow was only valid if we were certain that the Church was loyal to the covenant of God.
We view this sort situation as going in the opposite direction and will not partake, support nor tolerate it.
If the Catholic Church wants to slowly strangle itself and die, it's getting off to a fine start, albiet this problem has existed for centuries. It needs to end now.
Too bad. I really admired them and have committed much to their defense, but until this situation changes, that's over.
