text: Regarding :" gay culture"
  - This old phrase, 'particular friendships', might best explain what the old men in the Holy See want to address.
  - That is, secular clerics, as well as consecrated men and women, must avoid an, albeit natural, human tendency to have friends that are just like themselves.  That is, they do not have an 'open' approach to relationships and thus act in an exclusionary manner.
  - In houses of consecrated religious, 'particular friendships', raise suspicions, isolated one religious from another and thus are divisive.
  - More diffused, but just as apparent, secular clerics who have 'particular friends' limit their own ability to be a brother to the brothers and sisters of Christ.
  - So, this document is best read if 'gay' or 'homosexual' is replaced with human.
