I am not a Catholic, but, I note the lock step consistency in these type stories.
An RC priest molests, or fornicates, and the problem instantly becomes celibacy.
Not child molestation, or fornication, or adultery, or pederasty, or homosexuality. No, no, the problem is celibacy.
Does the media all go to classes to get this formula? “Should an RC priest ever be caught in a sexual act of any kind, blame celibacy.”
