"But are so many homo priests so far up in the Church hierarchy that they will prevent it from happening? That's the question."

You stop at "...the Roman Catholic Church.." and its seminaries??? Haven't homosexuals infiltrated the media, the government, the courts, the mainline Protestant seminaries and churches; the universities, the schools, the colleges, also?

Its saints --- it's historic defenders , have NEVER given up their efforts to root the Arminian influence out of the universal (catholic) church:

Saint? Froude: "... it has possessed such singular attractions in past times for some of the greatest men that ever lived ... I shall ask you, again, why, if it be a creed of intellectual servitude, it was able to inspire and sustain the bravest efforts ever made by man to break the yoke of unjust authority. When all else has failed, — when patriotism has covered its face and human courage has broken down, — when intellect has yielded, as Gibbon says, 'with a smile or a sigh,' content to philosophize in the closet, and abroad worship with the vulgar, — when emotion, and sentiment, and tender imaginative piety have become the handmaids of superstition, and have dreamt themselves into forgetfulness that there is any difference between lies and truth, — [this] slavish form of belief ... [it] has borne ever an inflexible front ...."."
