Historical literature and even historical accounts certainly contain enough evidence that the unmarried priesthood of the Roman Catholic Church has long been a haven for men who are attracted to men, and men who are attracted to boys, WPaCon. Archaic terms for such like catamite and sodomite are not at all difficult to find, even pertaining to individuals highly placed in the hierarchy, right up to certain medieval Popes themselves. That the Eastern Catholic Churches and certain Latin Rite Churches permit marriage only points out the fallacy and folly of Rome’s insistence upon it.

My argument is not over whether there are homosexuals in the priesthood, but whether “Rome” wants homosexuals in the priesthood.
