Not Only the Church

It has been said that priests are only some among many.

O sure, it's true.  But...

But it is different.  Very different.

When did you last come across a band teacher or a scout leader who has made a solemn, public oath to live a celibate life and to proclaim the Gentle Jesus to the world?

See?  It is different.  There is a higher standard at play.

Tell me there's not. 

Nothing is holier and finer than a priest serving the people of God.

And nothing is more vile, wicked, and disgusting than a priest using a child of God to serve himself.
