--Your naivete would be kind of cute if it weren't so dangerous.
Spend more time worrying about the idiots who let the abuse go on for so long and STILL positions of authority in the church.
: --I haven't missed your point. You believe that there is some sort of system or method by which you could prevent homosexuals from entering the priesthood. Or at least deter them to the point where only "a few slip by".
: --I'd like to know how you think that could actually be accomplished. Maybe you can be content with such a nebulous, scattershot method of dealing with sexual abuse in the priesthood, but I'm not. You grossly underestimate the scope and complexity of the problem.
Nothing scattershot about it. Although it does depend on having people in positions of authority with moral integrity and some guts; which are lacking.
In my diocese the Bishop who governed during the highpoint of abuse is nicely retired; hasn't said a word and has just had a building named after him by the local Jesuit university. You probably know and have the highest respect for him.
