The quest for power

So ... another batch of pervert Roman Catholic priests, this time in Germany.

The men who maintain the rule of celibacy cannot understand the power of the human sex drive. Not that perverts are acting out of an actual sex drive; they use sex as a weapon to hurt the weak and make themselves feel strong.

But any priest who can live celibate, untroubled, cannot grasp the need for physical release that sexual activity brings. It's like a deaf person's understanding of Bach or Lennon-McCartney, intellectual but not visceral.

Celibacy was forced on the priesthood, not that long ago, in an effort — mostly successful — to maintain power, imposed by men filled with hate, envy and lust. Get a man by the package and he's yours forever. Like frakking him without actually touching him.

Jesus Christ would not recognize any of today's "Christian" churches.
