We have the latest sex scandal to take over the Vatican (that’ll probably be swept under the rug like all the others).
A gay escort working near Naples, Italy has released a list of 34-40 priests and seminarians that he’s had interactions with.
Through a 1,200-page dossier, gay escort Francesco Mangiacapra has tried to accuse the multiple priests of having gay sex (or, at least, attempting to). That said, he wanted to point out that none of the men are pedophiles, just hypocrites.
"We’re talking about sins, not crimes,” as the Associated Press heard from him.
To back up these claims, the dossier contains WhatsApp chats and other evidence.
The evidence seemed so plausible that the archdiocese of Naples eventually sent the dossier over to the Vatican.
As the Associated Press reports:
“In a statement on the diocesan website, Cardinal Cresenzio Sepe said none of the identified priests worked in Naples. But he said he decided to forward the file to the Vatican because ‘there remains the gravity of the cases for which those who have erred must pay the price, and be helped to repent for the harm done.”
I’m on the side of the escort
I'm on the side of the escort, time to call out these hypocrites!!! Growing up with a brother who is a Catholic priest in BC Canada; who preaches forgiveness but got into an argument with our Dad, then stated he wanted to burn the house down with Dad in it and 5 1/2 years later still hasn't talked to him and sent Dad a notarized letter saying he wants no contact; left the priesthood because of "health problems" when he really only wanted to explore a relationship with another man; who when I was visiting him and I asked what he wanted to do he said that "he wanted to have sex me" and now is trying to help my brother manipulate my aging Father. Talk about speaking out of both sides of your mouth, damn rights call out the sanctimonious pricks!!!!
Shame on the escort for
Shame on the escort for outing the priests who trusted him.
The problem isn’t
The problem isn't homosexuality, it's celibacy; straight or gay is irrelevant. Let priests marry (men or women) and this will be less of a problem.
No the problem is not
No the problem is not celibacy either, its religion.
Tonight’s debate topic: who’s
Tonight's debate topic: who's the bigger hypocrite: the escort who swears that he'll keep your secrets or the priests who swear to being celibate?
Next week's topic: how many angels can dance on the head of a penis? And, does it matter if they're archangels?
I never knew prostitutes had
I never knew prostitutes had to take an oath before god to act in a righteous manner. Who knew?
Huh? What are you babbling
Huh? What are you babbling about? No one expects prostitutes to do anything but have sex with you. Yeah, let's compare prostitutes to priests in terms of morals.
WTF
Okay; so one contestant is
Okay; so one contestant is arguing that priests are bigger hypocrites because their vows/oaths are to an imaginary play mate. Who'll take the position that the escort, whose revelations threatens the livelihoods of others in his profession because it undermines trust between real people, was the bigger hypocrite?
So because the McDonalds by
So because the McDonalds by the freeway is shitty, you'll never go to another McDonalds? Escorting is a business venture, how one escort chooses to conduct business has little to typically no effect on the business of other escorts.
I don’t care if a priest is
I don’t care if a priest is gay or straight, but I have problems with priests violating their vow/promise of celibacy. That being said, we’re taking about the testimony of an escort. May be credible, could be dubious, especially with the ways scandals in Italy can often be salacious but not always true.
