>Instruction Concerning the Criteria for the Discernment of Vocations with Regard to Persons with Homosexual Tendencies in View of Their Admission to the Seminary and to Holy Orders is a document published in November 2005 by the Congregation for Catholic Education, one of the top-level offices of the Catholic Church. This document denies priestly ordination to men with "deep-seated homosexual tendencies". While the preparation for this document had started ten years before its publication,[1] this instruction was seen by many critics as a response by the Catholic Church to the clerical sexual abuse crisis.[2] Some critics accused this document of implicitly linking homosexuality to the sexual abuse of children.[3]
>The 1961 papal instruction Careful Selection And Training Of Candidates For The States Of Perfection And Sacred Orders (Religiosorum institutio)[4] stated that "Advantage 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." Bishops had discretion in allowing the further instruction of offending but penitent seminarians, and held homosexuals to the same standards of celibate chastity as heterosexual seminarians. There is no new moral teaching in the 2005 instruction: the instruction proposed by the document is rather towards enhancing vigilance in barring homosexuals from seminaries, and from the priesthood.

>Rethinking Bella Dodd and Infiltration of the Catholic Priesthood On September 9, 1952, Dodd explained to the U.S. Senate Subcommittee how the general idea of Communism’s influence worked. In the context of the subject of education, Dodd was asked by Senator Homer Ferguson, “You mentioned that you think there were about 1,500 Communist teachers in the United States. Now, we have thousands of teachers. What influence could 1,500 teachers have among the many thousands?” [...] Dodd’s testimony, while about education, seems applicable to the subject of the infiltration of the Church. One does not need to have 1,200 card-carrying Communists studying for the Catholic priesthood in order to cause damage later to the Church. All that would be necessary are a few strategically placed Communists within the seminary system who could exercise their influence upon unsuspecting men (especially seminarians themselves). Now, if some of these men were “young radicals” or nonparty Bolsheviks or just simple “idealists,” then that influence would be strongly asserted over them. The strategically placed Communist would find such men and use them to work his agenda.
