[QUOTE="OKC03Cobra, post: 3006751, member: 7518"] This article was in the NY Times back in 2002. It cites data from several sources. One of these is Father Cozzens, who wrote several books on the Catholic church and the priesthood. He estimated (then) that over 50% of priests were homosexuals. I believe the number is even higher at the rank and file level, and I also believe that the majority of Vatican officials, priests, and cardinals are homosexual.
