Seriously?????!!!!!!
Homosexual priests were attracted to young boys. They are also attracted to homosexual men, but I don't want to open that can of worms. But, grown men have means to reject sexual advavces, young boys did not.

I have read much on this topic over the years. My point was that this post deviated from original post and its discussion as to weather or not a Pope should resign. I don't think so, it was only recently that Popes were expected to travel. Papst Benedikt could have done what he is going to do and remained Pope, the Curial Cardinals would do the heavy lifting under his overall guidance.

Why make a big deal of his being wheeled on elevated platform up main aisle of St. Peter's? Formerly the Popes were carried in on a chair by four men. And don't forget, twice a women tried to approach him in St. Peters.
