It was issued by John XXIII, and dealt specifically and exclusively with homosexuality.

You don't know what you're talking about. I have a copy of the 34 page document right here in front of me. It is titled Careful Selection and Training of Candidates for the States of Perfection and Sacred Orders and was promulgated February 2, 1961 and published in this 1963 Volume V of THE CANON LAW DIGEST.

It deals with all aspects of selection of candidates.

Before Tuesday, no one in this country had read this document in 40 years. How would you know if it dealt specifically and exclusively with homosexuality?

OK, I'm sorry, it's the same document. But I don't think it's true that no one's read it. SMEDLEY BUTLER has posted from it.
