<<he was retrieving a rain jacket during lunch from his room
that was enough for him
he claims 1/3-rd of seminary to-be-priests are gay>>

Not Catholic or gay but wondering, do you think that to be worldwide or just US? North America? Europe & North America? I see your note further on in the post "$60M in Ireland alone" but have picked up those saying it is a "US problem" on O'Rielly factor.

Also with-in this discussion there exist a few other (unasked) questions: Does this say many / most gay men would molest children or are gay priests any more or less likely to molest boys than other gays?
If it is true that 1/3 of priests are gay how long has this been true - is this the last 20 years, 40 years,70 years? More / less?
Has it always been the same % US/ North America/ western Europe & North America of gay molesting priests, to the rest of the world for a great many years? Have a large % of priests always been gay & always molested boys or is this something more or less new?

fwiw In my many years of living in the western US I've known & respected a few Catholic priests and my cousins are/were Catholic. Of the priests I've known the topic of their (or my) sexuality never even came up but then these are a very limited number.
