H.M. Church. You've come a long way, Baby
There's something queer about rules for seminary admittance even though legion are the bloggers who insist legislation - approved by Bishop Emeritus Ratzinger, as Pope Benedict XVI - has taken care of the problem of sodomites in seminaries.
HA!!!!!
One wishes a clever artist would create a meme showing HM Church as a seductive smiling woman, beneath whom the caption would read, "We must show profound respect for sodomites" in imitation of the old Virginia Slims cigarette advertisements.
It is useful to remember that the damage to the lungs of women who smoked Virginia Slims is not as bad as the damage caused to the heart of The Church by the many multiples of scores of slim shady sodomites she admits into her seminaries.

HM Church has indeed come a long way on certain matters.
Back in the bad old days of the unenlightenment, in 1961, HM Church had this to say about admitting homosexuals to seminaries:
Advancement to religious vows and ordination should be barred to those who are afflicted with evil tendencies to homosexuality or pederasty, since for them the common life and the priestly ministry would constitute serious dangers.
Can you imagine HM Church today describing the evil tendencies to homosexuality of any man?
Well, no...such sins against dignity are the mortal sins of hate speech.
In fact, as then Pope Benedict XVI, Bishop Emeritus Ratzinger approved the, um, guidelines (Everybody in the pool, including perverted candidates) concerning the question of admitting homosexuals into seminaries developed by Zenon Cardinal Grocholewski, Prefect of the Congregation for Catholic Education, which issued "Concerning" and is responsible for its implementation...
But by approving it, Pope Benedict XVI owns this sick debacle.
The, um, guidelines included this malign directive that "profound respect" must be shown to homosexuals and that such men, far from being axiomatically excluded from admittance into seminaries, such men could have actually worked as a homosexual escort and still be admitted to seminary and, eventually, receive Holy Orders.

Showing profound respect for homosexual prostitutes might seem to some trads to be a bit much but such approaches are surely the way to set right what every man knows to be wrong (cough. cough).
If Pope Benedict XVI was in favor of it, soi disant trads swoon - talk about Papolatry.

The Catholic Church in 1961:
Advancement to religious vows and ordination should be barred to those who are afflicted with evil tendencies to homosexuality or pederasty, since for them the common life and the priestly ministry would constitute serious dangers.
Many Catholic Bloggers (But not Canon Law expert, Dr. Ed Peters) are obsessed with trying to prove that Bishop Emeritus Ratzinger is still Pope Benedict XVI but why would any soi disant traditionalist desire that he be, still, legally, Pope?
Look what he gave the Church in the legislation about sodomites in seminaries.
His legislation guarantees the Church will continue to be a
Traditionalist Fathers, NEVER let your son be alone with a Priest.
