Ok. Now I’ve read the article twice and I don’t see it. What is the pertinence of your question to the article? Or just a chance for a go ‘round on the anti-Catholic hobby horse?
No, not at all. I think the Catholics confronted with homosexuality took what seemed like a practical and humane approach, but which coupled with celibacy among the priesthood has resulted in a disproportionate number of gay men in the priesthood. I believe that is the nature of the problem with the sort of top down reordering of the Church. It’s not right to blame this on the current pope, look at the circumstances surrounding his ascent.
Any group out there is going to miscalculated now and again, certainly protestants have come up with some real lulus.
