Is that like a charism flowing from Christ through to the priest during the mass. I thought once ordained always ordain...because ordination is a sacrament from Christ not man.  So it would seem that God shows no love for the pedophile...a millstone around their neck..why then do we believe that God is all forgiving and all loving?  How can we practise loving one's neighbour.  Seems like a major contradiction to me.  But truly, I'm all for the milestone around their neck and being tossed into the sea.  Thanks Kurgan.
