WTF is wrong with you people? If you aren't interfering with kids, you're blaming a society that increasingly thinks you're an irrelevance for it :x

Assuming that was even true - which I don't accept - why should a priest break their vow of celibacy by engaging in sex with children instead of consenting adults?

He also claimed sex education in schools was making it more difficult for priests to remain celibate.

So the kids are sexually harassing the priests now?

With so much invasion of eroticism, sometimes it's not easy to stay celibate or to respect children

Is he admitting to having had desires to molest children?

Seeing as child abuse is a power issue of a disturbed mind I find his suggestion irrelevant. I see war on TV but I don't go out and kill people.

He should be investigated, in fact the whole establishment should be.

I see sexual images on TV all the time and it has not made me abuse women. I have seen many violent action films and have not hit any one. I have watched one man and his dog and I have had no sexual interest in sheep. I watch South Park and have no interest in children for sexual gratification. So how valid is his excuse?

TV? Even if you believe in that sort of thing, the internet is a much more likely target.

Perhaps he should read this:

Quote:
If any think they are religious, and do not bridle their tongues but deceive their hearts, their religion is worthless. Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

James 1:26-27 (NRSV-UK)


::shakes head::
