this is a good place and first step towards priesthood where we learn everything as I'm doing my philosophy and by seeing this short video I remember my past experiences which I had in seminary. God bless you all and keep praying

anything done to prevent pedophiles and other scandalous actions from taking place within the priesthood nad the church is probably a good one

I think it might help to raise the entry age. Maybe to 25 so that men are more mature. I studied at a college along side seminarians who entered at 18 and many of them (not all) seemed to have the emotional and psychological maturity of young children. Mind you that was 30 years ago so maybe things have changed. Also many of them were obviously gay and they were vocally homophobic. The Church needs to address the issue of sexually repressed closeted homosexuals entering. I have no problem with gays entering seminary so long as they are mature emotionally and psychologically and they are prepared to stick to celibacy. But not if they are going in to hide their sexuality. There was a seminarian in my class who was gay but you could tell he was very mature and he went on to be an excellent priest. I would suggest that a seminary is the worse place for a repressed homosexual. 5 to 7 years living in a place exclusively with other men! Also maybe the screening needs to look at issues such as family background, childhood experiences. Does the man have a healthy social life, hobbies etc. Evidence of the ability to form healthy relationships like healthy friendships etc. Also I think they should have a healthy level of self awareness.

Human beings are always vulnerable...service to any part of society should be clearly evaluated and confirmed. Celibacy has nothing to do with mental and social illnesses. Screening is a subjective tool.

I film di 007, spie in cui tutti si ammazzano, si spaccano la faccia e le varie parti del corpo sono sdoganati? Oppure altri film simili immagino siano più che approvati.??La violenza si, una scena d'amore appena un po' eccessiva è out? Io sono a favore della castità, ma credo che ci sia di peggio di una scena un po spinta, per quanto possa risultare poco gradevole . Una cosa è grave solo se è sessuale? Cari miei siete indietro di anni. Fate chiarezza. Purtroppo non sono gravi solo le scene sessuali, stessa cosa per gli abusi. Salvaci Signore (siamo perduti?).

Why is it that conservative seminarians are penalized for standing up to Bible truth? Why the gay agenda at so many of these seminaries?

How will the priests be able to help their parishioners if they don't experience relationships when they are Celibate and can't marry?

In these seminaries, is strict chasity actually taught? Are these seminarians and newly ordained abiding by the clear teachings of the Church in regards to mortal sin and celibacy?

@trassiepower But things like rape, war, and genocide are perfectly natural, yet we do not find it acceptable to partake in these things constantly, do we? Wearing clothes is unnatural- you have fat and hair to give you warmth, but you still wear clothes.

Celibacy is a unique calling not necessary for the priesthood. Priests should be married fathers as Paul specifies in 2 Timothy.

Speaking as a Catholic Priest. I'm really sorry but the Church just cannot afford married priests😏. The old saying Protestants tithe, Catholics tip😅
