Pope To Gays: Drop Dead!

[Lucky]

SO much for :Who am I to judge?" The Vatican has released a document forbidding not only gays, but those with homosexual "tendencies" to become priests or even enter the seminary. Not that you'd want to, but it is such a sharp contrast with the previous lack of judgment.

“The Church, while profoundly respecting the persons in question, cannot admit to the seminary or to holy orders those who practice homosexuality, present deep-seated homosexual tendencies or support the so-called ‘gay culture,’” the document stated.

So only the "bottoms" are restricted, that is, those with deep-seated tendencies, or can a penetrating top be also considered deep-seated? On a serious note, "profoundly respect " ... what an odd choice of wording (profoundly) ... why not simply drop the peculiar hyperbole and say "respect"?
