Great points there, Laz.

And may I add that if you all had watched OPRAH today, you'd know that there are a significant number of girls who have reported being sexually abused by priests. Apparently, some of the priests, like the notorious Geoghan, insinuated themselves into families by earning the mother's trust, then systematically abused all the children, male and female.

Well, I think you are proving my point.

Hard to believe a heterosexual with a strong sex drive would become a priest.

Meaning most priests are homosexual.

A 12 or 15 year boy is often more physically attractive than a 45 or 55 year old man.

Meaning a fixation on young boys as sexual targets.

We are in full agreement.
