What would you blame the Church scandal on if not gay priests and their willing accomplices in the hierarchy?

"...imply that gays are somehow less in control of their behavior than straights.

I think he used the word "aberrant." This denotes a deviancy but does not imply less or more control. The general attitude about the homosexuality ranges from an inborn secure orientation to a moving about in life style preferences. I am not aware of a study regarding self control that compares gays and heterosexuals but any one who claims that being a heterosexual is equivalent to self control is very ill informed.
