There’s been a fair bit of press lately regarding the Catholic Church and the conduct of it’s employees/ministers/priests.
What bothers me is the fact that we’re so shocked, surprised and outraged when these allegations come to light.
Consider the job description:
1- Candidate must be willing to work closely with adolescent and pre-pubescent males who have been pre-conditioned to believe that a priest is just one step away from God, and several notches above their biological father’s status.
2- Candidate must be celibate and may not engage in sexual activity with females.
Hmmm…I wonder, what kind of guy would be interested in this type of occupation?
Am I way off base here?
