Yes I agree Russel.  It could start in the United States on a state basis requiring priests and pastors to have professional licenses to ensure minimum ethical conduct.  As a physician my knowledge of medicine and my understanding of science is not modified by this licensing procedure.  So for a religious to say that would not be possible because to the separation of Church and State is ridiculous.  Think it time for even popes to stand trial in the Hague for their lack of ethical over reach in these despicable attacks on children, teenagers, women and men.  Our Church turned its official head to Rape of children, Teens, women and sometimes men.  In most states it is unethical for a physician to have a physical relationship with an adult patient until it has been seven year after treatment.  Why can not this secular ethical principle be applied to clergy.  It should have been, now it is too late.  They should be, and one day, will be licensed by civil authorities.
