“systematically” adopting policies that allowed priests to rape and molest tens of thousands of children over decades. . .”
The Church did not adopt policies permitting this practice. The Church did, however, allow homosexuals to becomes priests. . .provided they could and would control their urges. This was a mistake, as homosexuals define their very being by their behavior and being a priest, having so much control and influence over young boys, it was a homosexual predator’s paradise.
Normal heterosexual men living a Godly life of celibacy do not suddenly change into homosexuals and want molest young boys.
That used to be my argument, but now I realize that the question is about the culture attracting homosexual men to it.
An institution of powerful robe wearing men, all vowing to never know a woman, to never be husbands, boyfriends, or fathers, to devote themselves to the world's most exclusively, global, female excluding all male club. Something like that is bound to attract a lot more than just normal men who agree to celibacy.
