"Sins of the Fathers" implies that if Catholic priests were free to marry, it would solve the problem of pedophilia which the medical community has determined is an incurable illness [March 29]. Pedophiles exist in all walks of life, yet Catholic priests get the headlines, even though just a tiny percentage have committed this shameful offense. Choosing to live the vow of chastity is a gift of one's total self to God and has no relevance whatsoever to pedophilia.
