I've heard many ignorant comments, but calling these men "freaks" tops the list of ignorance and stupidity. To quote Abraham Lincoln, "It's better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you're ignorant than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."

I know two of the priests shown in the video! :D

I feel deceived, anguished...God gave us love and a Church like that of Rome forbids to love! It's nonsense.

freaks

@Born2Flesh. Hi Flesh, Hetetosexual priests are not pedophiles. Pedophiles are drawn to the priesthood (or teaching) to get access to children. Male sexual preference is ingrained and unless it's an aberrant idea of 'any port in a storm,' men obviously prefer women. The idea that celibacy causes child molestation is dubious to say the least. I can't imagine a normal male being sexually interested in children no matter how long it had been since he was around women.

@lovencare62 thats why there are two choices. choose to marry and have family and thats make you happy but ir you really have a deeper love to the lord and desire to offer your whole life and time for him alone then be a priest. priest is a priest. he is for the lord only to serve him and follow him for the rest of his life and to help all the souls to bring to him in eternal life.

It is so sad that so beautiful priests give up love and romance!

It is so sad for people like me who don't find anyone to love....seeinf those beautiful and gorgeous men sacrifice themselves to the church and give up happiness! If not even those people are happy...we unlucky people will lose any kind of hope. But if you love and don't give up the possibility to be happy, a light will bright for us and we will keep hope

[pejeux]

I can't believe ...that Seminarian boy is too gorgeous to sacrifice his own life to priesthood! It's incredible! Why doesn't the Catholic church, >(that is my church), allow marriages to priesthood??

I can't understand it! It's like a stupid and useless sacrifice!

If you read the book "The Thorn Birds" you will see.

I cannot understand how these beautiful priests can give up the chance to have a wife and a family! Love has been created for beautiful people like them.
