Pensieri di un lunatico minore

Oh the irony, it burns

Gays in the Vatican? Say it ain’t so:

A Vatican official suspended after being caught on hidden camera making advances to a young man says he is not gay and was only pretending to be gay as part of his work.

Seriously, can we just stop this charade? It’s insulting to everyone, and demeaning to all the people forced to lie constantly to hide something that is obviously more common than anyone cares to admit.

Why do you think that is? (serious question) – Homosexuals are drawn to the clergy? – Forced abstinence encourages homosexuality? – Forced abstinence increases sexual drives in general, and these guys aren’t so much homosexual as they are omni-sexual – taking whatever they can get.

I opt for #3, but I don’t know. It doesn’t make sense to me that gays would be drawn to the clergy. Why seek out such frustration?

I think it’s because religion, and churches in particular, attract power hungry control freaks who are ripe for abusing others, whether physically or intellectually. But hey, that’s just me.
