Priests ask to be sensitive to gay issues
Recently a newspaper in Montreal reported that nineteen Quebec priests denounced the Vatican's opposition to same-sex marriage and its refusal to allow gay men into the priesthood.
In an open letter published Sunday in La Presse, the priests expressed the strongest public dissent to date on the Roman Catholic church's stand on homosexuality.
In the letter published under the headline "Enough is enough," the priests charge that by considering homosexuality a "disorder," the church is contributing to homophobia.
There is no reason for the ban on homosexual men from entering the priesthood, is there?
