There’s a world of difference between struggling with temptation and engaging in sin.

Scripture doesn’t say that men who struggle with temptation can’t fill the office to which they are called.

It DOES say that if they engage, they are disqualified.

Catholic defense of this as *everyone does it*, *they’re just a sinner like everyone else*, etc, is disgusting.

Campion:

"Unless you're speaking in coded terms of homosexuals, in which case I agree with you."

Metmom, you don't seem to have noticed that campion was agreeing with you, at the very least to this extent.

Is it time for the 'naughty' pope list?
