If there is a way to fuck things up, the Catholic Church will find it.

I’m not sure why the Catholic Church seems to think that their priests engaging in sexual intercourse is so horrible a thought it needs to be banned. The Church is getting desperate for new young folks to fill the ranks of the old men who made the mess the Church is in today, even as it steadily dismisses those new young folks in favor of upholding antiquated laws that really hold no meaning at all. From CNN:

Cutie (pronounced koo-tee-AY) will pursue the priesthood in the Episcopal Church, the Episcopal Diocese of Southeast Florida said in a written statement.

It was not immediately clear how long the process would take.

Cutie is sometimes called “Father Oprah” because of the advice he’s given in Spanish-language media.

He shocked the Catholic community when photographs of him embracing a bathing-suit-clad woman emerged this month.

Cutie admitted having a two-year relationship with the woman.

She has not been publicly identified.

I’m no big fan of priests or of the Catholic Church, but this guy seems to be genuine and real. He seems to be in a committed relationship with one woman who is fully grown and fully consenting. An oddity for far to many priests in the Catholic Church.

Tell me again why *he* is leaving the church and not the pedophile that’s been moved from church to church for 40 years?
