Are you suggesting that sex is not a subject for the confessional?

Asking a celibate priest about sex is like asking a vegetarian about proper portion size for filet mignon.

Do you still claim to be in Holy Orders? Your comments clearly mock the Confessional. It is illogical. You could just as easily claim that asking the opinion of an Oncologist who has never had cancer is like asking a vegetarian about proper portion size for filet mignon. It is clearly insulting to the entire celibate Priesthood. And it cannot be squared with the teachings and dogmas of the True Faith.
