The scandal is due to infidelity, not celibacy.

Precisely right.

I have it from my morning e-mail that we must brace ourselves for a detailed dossier on an American cardinal to be released shortlly. It will detail his homosexuality, his lies, his 'associations' and his complete infidelity to his ordination vows.

I just finished reading Goodbye! Good Men.

Overall, it was an excellent exposé on what is going on behind the scenes, regarding vocations. There were a few shortcomings, such as typographical errors, and a small amount of repetition, but overall, I would highly recommend it to all Catholics (and interested non-Catholics).

There is pretty clearly a subculture of feminist nuns, dissenters and heretics who are actively discouraging and persecuting devout, obedient young men from pursuing the priesthood. Then, they advocate the abandonment of the male celibate priesthood as a solution to the problem that they have themselves created!

Some of them are probably oblivious to the fact that what they are seeing are the results of their dissention from Church teaching. Others, however, are clearly quite deliberate about all this.

O'Reilly was just talking about this on his radio show. He is not going to release it because he does not have independent confirmation - he did say that he will be discussing this issue tonight on his TV show with (can't think of the name) the priest who is all over the networks from Notre Dame -- McSomething?? O'Reilly said that he thinks the Washington Post will print this story very soon. I hope I'm not just being nosy or a scandalmonger, but I hope the story breaks soon just so we can get on with correcting the problem instead of just talking about it. The release of this information should open a huge fissure, IMO.

God help us! This is getting uglier by the day!
