This is ephebophilia perpetrated by a priest who is in authority over those they abuse--this is crass immorality on the part of the abuser. So get your interpretation corrected. The consensual part of my comment did not refer to teenagers, but adults that priests are immoral with. <br />I would caution though, against culturally definitions of consensual as in South Carolina girls at one time could get married at the age of 14 without parental consent and 13 with it! <br />Ephebophilia on the part of the abuser could be heterosexual or homosexual, although our culture doesn't look upon a mature man lusting after teenager girls in the same way as priests lusting after teenage boys. I might add that in the homosexual community there is a double standard about that too. Fr. Allan J.

AMAZING <br />Your attitude is still part of the problem. The priest...the adult...had position and power over the victim. I don't care how they appeared. That cannot be consensual, always abusive.<br />Lord, have mercy on the church with attitudes, teaching attitudes like yours, after all we have been through.<br />The priests should have been investigated by civil authorities and maybe they'd be sharing a cell with Jerry Sandusky. That would be an opportunity for something consensual.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-30889863607688376162013-02-20T18:23:38.046-05:002013-02-20T18:23:38.046-05:00You know what would be exciting?

I don't know if there was an intentional infiltration of homosexual priests in the Church to turn things up side down in an intentional way, but once they starting acting out with adult looking teenagers, treating them as dumb blonds and in consensual situations, it certainly does undermine the Church. But heterosexual priests are complicit in this too. Cardinal Mahony is living on another planet and should embrace his absence from the conclave as a penance for his part in undermining the Church. Yet, this is the Church of Christ and it will survive. Fr. Allan J.

Then after doing so, they've soiled the reputation of the priesthood by following their basest inclinations.<br /><br />I accept this penance, but it is a bitter one, because of the hypocrisy of our accusers. The same secular media that wants to normalize all things homosexual beats the Church to death for taking positions against homosexuality and allowing the very homosexuals that the media so dearly loves to do what came naturally to them after getting through the seminaries.<br /><br />As for Cardinal Mahony, no one can force him to stay home.
