In the words of Cardinal Ernesto Imanotti, "his holiness has has an epiphany, he has just issued a statement that the Catholic Church should reconsider their lobg standing policy of priestly celibacy. He has come to the realization that if priests were allowed the option to explore more "human relationships", then maybe the Catholic Church could more readily reconciliate it's sordid past with the issue of pedophilia....."
