I am not endorsing the Catholic stand on homosexuality but I don't see how they could allow this priest to admit having to having a relationship when they don't allow any others to do so.

Personally, I think the church should rethink its stand on both homosexuality and the celibacy requirement for priests. And make a real stand against pedophile priests.
