But you DO explicitly support Sodomites being ordained to the priesthood of Jesus Christ, even though canon law has always expressly forbiden it.

I do not. I've always said you cannot keep celibate gays out of the priesthood because there's no way to tell, if a man is celibate, whether he's homosexual or heterosexual, unless he tells you.

Practicing homosexuals obviously should not be ordained to the priesthood.

But you're fooling yourself if you think there aren't, and have always been, a good number of celibate homosexuals in the priesthood.
