Origen castrated himself, a self made un-man? and Ambrose forbade married bishops conjugal relations. sort of a Platonic arrangement as it were.
No, it’s not a new scandal but easy communication and the waning deference of the secular world to religious organizations means it’s more difficult to keep the lid on.
