Gay sex in the Vatican, gay marriage in DC

This is making me think that catholics in power like gay sex. It hasn't been more than two days since a conservative, anti-gay legislator was found coming out from a gay bar. Yet, we have news from another scandal involving gay sex. This time it's not just a catholic legislator, but people from The Vatican.

Vatican chorister sacked for allegedly procuring male prostitutes for papal gentleman-in-waiting

The Vatican was today rocked by a sex scandal reaching into Pope Benedict's household after a chorister was sacked for allegedly procuring male prostitutes for a papal gentleman-in-waiting.

Angelo Balducci, a Gentleman of His Holiness, was caught by police on a wiretap allegedly negotiating with Thomas Chinedu Ehiem, a 29-year-old Vatican chorister, over the specific physical details of men he wanted brought to him. Transcripts in the possession of the Guardian suggest that numerous men may have been procured for Balducci, at least one of whom was studying for the priesthood.
A Gentleman of "his holiness"... and that is...
ceremonial ushers of the papal household. In the words of a 1968 ordinance, they are expected to "distinguish themselves for the good of souls and the glory of the name of the Lord".

The Lord must be thrilled. Especially since his church, the Catholic church (according to the catholics) states in its catechism that:

homosexual acts "are intrinsically disordered" and "Under no circumstances can they be approved."


Meanwhile, in Washington DC, gay marriage is legal. Gays go and get in line to get married, a right they should have because they are citizens, just like anyone, and because by getting married they get lots of benefits that any other kind of partnership can't get. DC got what California, thanks to the bible-thumping bigots, could not get: Equality.
