Diverting the matter from the acceptance of open and notorious sin in the priesthood to the presence of sinners in the Church, sinners that all of us are, is disingenuous of you. There's the matter of repentance to consider, I'm sure you're aware.
Unrepentant sinners in positions of authority within Protestant churches have been promptly removed in every instance that I'm aware. Name one that hasn't been and I'll join you in condemning the sin and calling for the removal of that individual.
Not so with the Roman Catholic Church.
As starters, we have Vickey Jean Robinson the unrepentant protestant homosexual bishop of New Hampshire , Kathy Schori chief priestess of the Episcopal Church being just two examples of current deviancy in protestant leaders. If you wish we could continue.
Do you deny then that Jimmy Swaggert and Ted Haggard are both back to ministerial positions?
The key word is unrepentant. Do you have some knowledge that these priests are unrepentant?
Did not Jesus say that we are to forgive sin seventy times seven times?
The bishops also must repent of their sin, they are human as well.
If the Church’s position was that there were no wrongs committed, then I might see your point.
