For God sakes, let priests get married and it will give you a much better quality clergy. It seems that the Catholic church attracts people with that type of behavior. Not all, but certainly enough. Good riddance!

True, many can be true human beings. But then there are those who adopt this role for the sole purpose of exploiting others sexualy, financially, whatever they can get. Never give them te benefit of the doubt. This isn't limited to the catholic church.
