The statement was made by a 79 year old priest who at the age of 72 was struck by a car and ended up with head injuries so severe that he was in a coma for a month. In recent months his physical heath and mental capabilities have been failing so badly that he has been in and out of hospital and the Church has relieved him of his pastoral responsiblities.
End of story. The guy clearly didn't realize what he was saying due to his diminished cognitive ability..
But carry on all you Catholic church bashers... don't let the facts get in the way of a good rant.
