Vatican document comes over all queer
I’m not talking about the way that they relate to people of their own gender but the fact that they have more problems keeping their trousers zipped up. It’s true! Honest! The Vatican says so.
It has therefore issued Guidelines for the Use of Psychology in the Admission and Formation of Candidates for the Priesthood which basically says that people with "deep-seated homosexual tendencies" will have more problems with celibacy than those with deep-seated heterosexual tendencies.
All a tad obvious I suspect. After all, homosexuals are those nasty perverts who have multiple partners and abuse children – well, according to Dame Thompson’s blog they are although, in this case, it’s not the Dame whose making the objectionable comments but his acolytes. Trust me, you’ll need a strong stomach to read some of these comments.
I try hard to defend our Church but sometimes I just give up.

This is an interesting one. From a bit of surfing, opinion appears to be divided on the purpose of said screening. Some are of the opinion that it is to root out those with very conservative traits and leanings towards traditional liturgy rather than the renewal called for by Vatican 2.
