by Mick Krever, CNN
Homosexuality is “the ticking time bomb in the Catholic Church,” a former Dominican friar told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour on Monday.
Mark Dowd, who is himself openly gay, spoke to Amanpour as a blitz of new scandals hit the Catholic Church, just days before Pope Benedict XVI is set to step down from the papacy.
The Vatican announced on Monday that the archbishop of Scotland is resigning, a day after British newspapers published accusations of decades-long sexual misconduct with other priests. An American Cardinal is facing fresh allegations of covering up abuse. And Italian newspapers over the weekend published sordid accounts of homosexuality and blackmail within the Church hierarchy.
That last allegation, of a secret “cabal” of gay priests, has been dubbed the “Vati-leaks” scandal.
“When you have this culture of secrecy and guilt and repression,” Dowd said, “you have conditions which foster the potential for blackmail and for manipulation.”
Dowd, who is now a journalist, said that gay men are “massively over-represented” within the Church.
“About half,” he said, “if not more, of all the people attracted into seminaries in the priesthood are gay themselves.”

Quote:so when i said it came from a blog and was unsupported by any evidence you provide... yes here it comes...
A BLOG SUPPORTED BY ONE PERSONS OPINION.
all you need now is a youtube video to make the proof solid.
Seriously booby, you are actually sounding more like an idiotic fool every day. You couldnt construct an argument that 1+1=2 without a youtube video and a blog.
you are a genuine dunce.
Longweekend,
you asked for proof & I gave you the
proof - direct from CNN -one of the most trusted sources in the world,
not a blog on the internet.
CNN checks their stories out.
No proof would satisfy you except your faith in the Bible.
You are a faith based rather than a reality based person -
so what about the question
that you so conveniently ignore?Will this new Pope get rid of all the arse clowns in his church?
