One would wonder what he was tyring to hide....by not just gritting his teeth and going along with the investigation...one has to wonder..... 1 Thessalonians 5:22 Abstain from all appearance of evil. Yes! Very odd behavior by the priest.

That doesn't mean that 40% are practicing "homosexual sin".
Just acting "effeminate" or even considering the same gender as yours to be more attractive are not sins.
As you very fairly pointed out, just being married does not protect the clergy from sexual temptation. I personally know people who were sexually abused by "straight" (protestant) clergy. I also know a pastor(protestant, and straight) who became addicted to prostitution, in fact he did the funeral for my son. (yikes)
What's my point? um...I don't know.... But I do know that we need to be in prayer for all clergy and leaders in the church because of course satan attacks them with temptation like crazy.
peace
