Zero tolerance sounds like the way to go still. Finding out how they entered the ministry and closing that door should be a priority. This can not happen again.

Zero tollerance must mean zero in all forms. The bishops seem to be tip toeing around the homosexual problem in their preisthood. Until they are serous about removing homosexuals then this "agreement" will just be a means to a coverup.

From what I saw last week the vatican made a pretty clear notion that homosexuality was not to be tolerated. What happened this group did not hear the pope?

All people have their mistakes to bear. Some big some small. Being homosexual means you can't be a priest. end of discussion.
