Melbourne Catholic Church is now going to be “testing” priests to make sure they don’t have The Gay:
Under the guidelines, potential priests who “appear” to be gay must be banned.
…
Victorian Gay and Lesbian Rights Lobby spokeswoman Hayley Conway said the church was sending a ‘‘dangerous and offensive’’ message about sexuality.
…
‘‘If the plan is to root out pedophilia or child molestation, targeting people with homosexual tendencies isn’t the way to go about it.’’
This will end well…
You know, for some reason, I just don’t trust the gaydar in the Catholic Church.
But if it helps get more people out of the Church, I guess it’s not all bad…
Cynical-C speculates:
I wonder if the test will be true/false, essays, or something a bit more interactive
So from now on, if you hear of a pedophilia scandal in the Church, you can sleep safely knowing it’s only a heterosexual priest doing the raping.
