Gay priest in Bay Area fears agenda of Vatican officials

And for my partial quote and link:
MENLO PARK — A group of Vatican reviewers visited the St. Patrick’s Seminary campus last week to review its admission procedures and performance.

“Their aim is to see how our program is going,” Assistant Rector the Rev. Fred Cwiekoski said. “It’s their committee, not ours. They will be reporting to their commission in the Vatican.”

St. Patrick’s is one of 229 American seminaries to receive a so-called papal visitation. A papal committee will review the Jesuit School of Theology at UC Berkeley in February.

Vatican officials confirmed this week that Pope Benedict XVI plans to ban all homosexuals from entering the seminaries. This will include those who do not have sex with other men.

Really?!

I don’t believe that. Where is the Oakland Tribune getting this information?
 
No working link. Thread closed. PM me with link and I will reopen thread.

I reopened the thread after seeing that the link furnished by the OP worked. After reading the article, which is biased and contains questionable statements, I think it best to close the thread.

All the news leaks which have been attributed to the Vatican are dubious, at best, and I believe that we would do better to discuss the matter after the release of the official document. Premature discussion, of necessity, consists only of conjecture and speculation and cannot be the basis for a reasoned debate.
