Comment: If you're a gay Catholic, and you're not encouraging priests to come out the closet, then you're part of the problem.

81% of the victims of clerical abuse were boys, and 15-58% of the current clergy are gay.

Both the Trads and a good many progs are saying (though for different reasons) that sexual orientation doesn't matter, and therefore should remain a secret.

I disagree.   It was secrecy of orientation that led to the abuse, and in large measure, also led to the cover up of this abuse.

The first remedy to the abuse problem is for priests to come out of the closet, and stop pretending to be straight men who have no ss attraction, or have transcended sexuality altogether.
