As a gay person, I'm going to take the unusual position of saying that as long as the Holy Roman Catholic Church is teaching (falsely, IMO) that being gay is "objectively disordered and intrinsically evil" it makes perfect sense to have a policy statement barring gay men from serving as priests. I mean, why would any sane, self-respecting gay man even want to be part of an organization which teaches that? 

On the other hand, I think it's perfectly obvious that the odious 2005 instruction is not stopping gay men from becoming priests, it's simply forcing them deeper into the closet where their sexuality becomes warped, their emotional growth stunted (usually at adolescence when they discover that they're gay) and then they end up molesting children. Same old, same old.

But I always have to ask, what about those with "deep-seated heterosexual tendencies?" I mean, shouldn't they too be barred for not being able to restrain themselves sexually? That doesn't seem fair, does it?
