The cardinal also elaborated on the meaning of "transitory" problems.

"For example, during an adolescence not yet completed, some curiosity; or, under accidental circumstances, when drunk, or other particular conditions such as a person who has been in prison for many years. In these cases, the possible homosexual acts do not come from a deeply seated tendency, but are determined by the circumstances," he said.

Huh?

I believe that the gay activists and the liberals will attack like there is no tomorrow on this, since the non-sinfulness of homosexual activity, as well as of abortion, are the twin pillars of the modern liberal dogma. We must all now pray more than ever for Holy Mother Church and for the conversion of her attackers, and rally round the Holy Father Benedict.

Huh? for this one, too:

He also made clear the Instruction was intended for candidates for the priesthood and not someone who "discovers his homosexuality after having been ordained."

I see the good Cardinal and a variety of bishops are already out there trying to make this instruction go away, or render it totally meaningless, at least.

"Exactly “Huh” ---- I infore want to clarify one and only one rule> You shall not commit Adultery!!!!. Think wisely what it means and to whom is address. Eto fore humanity will face sword of justice. His Majesty Majesty Lord of Lords writes well in His Holy Scriptures of this abomination of life. Why do you think Pompeii was destroyed in 78.
It is your free will; eto fore choose wisely; ore be with fallen cherubim.""

I've been an adolescent, I've been drunk, I've never been to prison and don't ever want to, and I will be the first to admit that in my youth I did a lot of things that I knew to be sinful and immoral; however, there has never been any "curiosity" or anything else that made me ever even consider homosexual acts. This idea of circumstantial homosexuality is absurd.
